Applications
Uses4-Hydroxyindole is a Pindolol (P468000) impurity, which is a mixed adrenergic blocker and serotonin 5HT1A-receptor antagonist.
General DescriptionGlucouridination of 4-hydroxyindole by human uridine 5′-diphospho-glucuronosyltransferase has been repotrted.
Preparation methods
PreparationSynthesis of 4-hydroxyindole: Using resorcinol as raw material, 4-oxotetrahydrocoumarone carboxylic acid is prepared by isomerization, catalytic hydrogenation, and cyclization with ethyl bromopyruvate. It was added to methanol solution saturated with ammonia, and the reaction was heated in an autoclave to generate 4-oxotetrahydroindole. Finally, 4-hydroxyindole is obtained by dehydrogenation and isomerization.
