Indole-3-carbinol is an off-white powder. It is soluble in organic solvents such as benzene, ethanol, DMSO, and dimethyl formamide (DMF), which should be purged with an inert gas. The solubility of Indole-3-carbinol in ethanol and DMF is approximately 10 mg/ml and approximately 3 mg/ml in DMSO. Indole-3-carbinol is an unstable compound that undergoes rapid oligomerization in acid pH environments, like the stomach.
Indole-3-carbinol is produced by members of the family Cruciferae, and particularly members of the genus Brassica (e.g., cabbage, radishes, cauliflower, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, and daikon).
