処分方法SRP: At the time of review, criteria for land treatment or burial (sanitary landfill) disposal practices are subject to significant revision. Prior to implementing land disposal of waste residue (including waste sludge), consult with environmental regulatory agencies for guidance on acceptable disposal practices.
体内負荷4 of 46 human adipose tissue samples, collected in 1982, contained indole (3 in age category 45+, 1 in age category 15-44 years)(1).PERSONAL AIR: Expired air from control (n= 20), but not prediabetic (n= 14) or diabetic (n= 28) human study populations contained indole at unreported concns(1).
相互作用POSITIVE INOTROPIC EFFECTS OF INDOLE ON ISOLATED GUINEA PIG ATRIA WAS ANTAGONIZED BY PROPRANOLOL & PRETREATMENT WITH RESERPINE.
環境中動態TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a recommended classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 350(SRC), determined from a measured log Kow(2) and a recommended regression-derived equation(3), and a measured Koc of 187 from a synthetic soil with 0-2% added humic acid(4), indicate that indole will have moderate mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of indole should not be important from moist soil surfaces(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 5.3X10-7 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), calculated from experimental values for vapor pressure(5) and water solubility(6). Indole is expected to readily biodegrade under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions in soil(SRC). Indole, added to Chernozem soil at 1 and 10 g/kg soil, was completely biodegraded in 19 and 135 days, respectively(7). Indole was completely biodegraded by suspensions of an organic soil (Carlisle muck) under methanogenic and denitrifying conditions within 67 and 144 days, respectivelyoxindole was reported as a metabolite of this process(8).AQUATIC FATE: Based on a recommended classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 350(SRC), determined from a measured log Kow(2) and a recommended regression-derived equation(1), and a measured Koc value of 187(3) indicate that indole may adsorb to suspended solids and sediment in water(SRC). Indole is not expected to volatilize from water surfaces(1,SRC) based on an estimated Henry's Law constant of 5.3X10-7 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), calculated from experimental values for vapor pressure(4) and water solubility(5). According to a classification scheme(6), an estimated BCF value of 25(1,SRC), from a measured log Kow(2), suggests that bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). Indole is expected to readily biodegrade under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions in water(SRC). At 10 °C, aerobic groundwater containing a mixture of aromatic compounds completely biodegraded indole in 310 hours, including an acclimation period of 130 hours(7). Complete metabolism of indole by methanogenic sediments from the shore, edge, and bottom of Buffalo Run stream, PA, occurred within 33 daysoxindole was formed during this process(8). Indole was completely biodegraded under denitrifying conditions in 7 days using a sewage inoculum(8).ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), indole, which has a measured vapor pressure of 0.0122 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), will exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase indole is degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals, nitrate radicals, and ozone(SRC)the half-lives for these reactions in air are estimated to be about 2 to 3 hours, < 1 minute, and 6 hours, respectively(3,SRC).
食品調査値Different samples of Beaufort cheese from the French Alps contained indole at unreported concns(1). Indole, at unreported concns, was reported as a volatile flavor compound in fried bacon(2), roasted filbert nuts(3), short-necked clams and corbicula(4), and pork(5). Water-boiled duck meat and duck fat contained indole at 1.72 and 2.28 ppb, wet basis, respectively(6).
Plant ConcentrationsVolatile compounds identified in Lonicera japonica flowers (Japanese honeysuckle) contained indole at concns of 52, <20, and 87 ug/kg for fresh flowers, flowers after 12 hours, and flowers after 24 hours, respectively(1).
Effluent ConcentrationsIndole was detected in industrial wastewaters from the following industries: timber products, leather tanning, iron and steel manufacturing, inorganics and plastics, synfuels, and publicly owned treatment works(1). Process water derived from the Fischer Assay retorting of oil shale from Rundle, Australia contained indole at 3 mg/l(2). A grab sample of final effluent from the Addison, IL publicly-owned treatment works in April 1980 contained indole at unreported concns(3). Wastewater obtained during the gasification of Indian Head lignite contained indole at an estimated concn of 1 mg/l(4). Wastewater and sludge from the Iona Island Sewage Treatment plant, Vancouver, British Columbia contained indole at unreported concns(5).Untreated coke plant wastewater contained indole from 23 to 26,000 ug/l(1). Volatile components in poultry manure contained indole at concns of 5.08 and 10.4 mg/kg(2). Indole was identified in creosote oil extracts at 7700 ug/g(3). Basin floodwater, taken from Fort Devens, MA, following primary treatment, contained indole at 11 ug/l(4,5). Chlorinated still bottom extract contained indole at unreported concns(6).
Soil Adsorption/MobilityA Koc of 187 was measured for indole on a synthetic soil consisting of 88-90% sand, 10% clay and 0-2% humic acid(1). The Koc of indole is estimated as approximately 350(SRC), using a measured log Kow of 2.14(2) and a regression-derived equation(3,SRC). According to a recommended classification scheme(4), these Koc values suggest that indole has moderate mobility in soil(SRC).
Natural Pollution SourcesIndole is found as a component of jasmine oil and orange-blossom oil(1).
Atmospheric ConcentrationsINDOOR AIR: Indoor air from 11% of the sampled private homes in the Chicago, IL area contained indole at unreported concns (n= 36)(1).URBAN AIR: Both vapor phase and aerosol fractions of urban air contained indole at unreported concns(1). Indole was identified on aerosols collected from the Southern North Atlantic Ocean at a mean concn of 0.18 ng/cu m(2).
Fish/Seafood ConcentrationsThree samples of commercial Mytilus edulis (blue mussel), collected near Holbaek, Denmark, contained indole(1).
Artificial Pollution SourcesIndole's production and use as a chemical intermediate(1,2), a perfume fixative(2), a synthetic flavor(3) and its possible use as a kairomone (a volatile chemical released by a plant to attract phytophagus insects - used for insect control of adult rootworms)(4) may result in its release to the environment through various waste streams(SRC). Indole is released directly to the environment as a component of tobacco smoke(5). High-temperature coal tar contains on average just under 0.2% indole(6).
Environmental BiodegradationGroundwater containing a mixture of aromatic hydrocarbons and aromatic nitrogen-, sulfur-, and oxygen-containing heterocyclics, including indole initially present at 0.2 to 1 mg/l, gave an aerobic degradation time (defined as the total time from the start of the experiment until a concn less than 1 ug/l is reached) for indole of 310 hours including an acclimation time of 130 hours at 10 °C(1). Indole, in a 5 day BOD test, reached 49.5% of the theoretical BOD using a mixed microbial inoculum obtained from an enrichment culture(2). A 5 day BOD test gave a BOD of 2.07 g/g for indole using a sewage inoculum(3). First order biodegradation rate constants of 4.3X10-2 BOD/hr and 7.7X10-2 spec/hr were measured for indole at 1.6, 2.5, and 3.2 mg/l for a BOD and a UV spectrophotometry detection method, respectivelythe inoculum used was a mixed culture obtained from an enrichment culture technique(3). A reaction pathway for the aerobic biodegradation of indole was proposed: indole to indoxyl to dihydroxyindole to isatin to formylanthranilic acid to anthranilic acid to catechol(5). Indole, added to Chernozem soil at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 g/kg soil, was completely biodegraded in 19, 37, 62, 72, 84, 92, 102, 131, and 135 days, respectively(6).Indole was completely biodegraded in 10 days under methanogenic conditions using a 9% anaerobic sewage sludge inoculum forming oxindole as an intermediate metabolitethe concn of indole in the sterile control over this time remained unchanged(1). Throughout the incubation period, net methane production increased, indicating that indole was mineralized(1). Complete metabolism of indole by methanogenic sediments from the shore, edge, and bottom of Buffalo Run stream, PA, occurred within 33 days. As indole disappeared, stoichiometric amounts of oxindole appeared in the sediment suspensions and persisted for over 4 weeks and was completely eliminated over 110 days(2). Complete biodegradation of indole was reported in 24 days using a 9% digested sludge inoculum at 22 °C under methanogenic conditions(2). Indole was completely biodegraded by suspensions of an organic soil (Carlisle muck) under methanogenic conditions within 67 daysconcurrently, oxindole appeared, and persisted in near stoichiometric amounts for about 3 weeks(2). No oxindole accumulated under denitrifying conditions, using a soil inoculum, during the 144 days which were required for indole to disappear(2). This pattern was again seen using a 9% sewage sludge inoculum under methanogenic and denitrifying conditionsboth conditions required 7 days for complete disappearance of indolehowever, oxindole accumulated temporarily in the methanogenic culture but was not seen in the denitrifying culture probably due to rapid metabolism of this compound(2).

説明

Indole has an almost floral odor when highly purified. Otherwise, it exhibits the characteristic odor of feces. It is not very stable on exposure to light (turns red). Indole may be obtained from the 220 - 260°C boiling fraction of coal tar or by heating sodium phenylglycine-o-carboxylate with NaOH, saturating the aqueous solution of the melt with C 02, and finally reducing with sodium amalgam; can be prepared also by the reduction of indoxyl, indoxyl carboxylic acid, or indigo.

天然物の起源

Reported occurring in several natural products as a complex compound that decomposes during enfleurage or steam distillation yielding free indole; reported found in the essential oil from flower of Jasminum grandiflorum, in neroli oil and in the oil extracted from flowers of bitter orange; also reported in the flowers of several plants: lemon, coffee, Hevea brasiliensis and Randia formosa in the oil extracted from flowers of Jasminum odoratissinium L. and in the oil of Narcissus jonquilla. Also reported found in apricot, mandarin orange peel oil, grapes, kohlrabi, French fried potato, crispbread, cheeses, butter, milk, milk powder, boiled egg, fish oil, chicken, beef, pork, beer, rum, Finnish whiskey, red and white wine, coffee, tea, soybean, mushrooms, cauliflower, figs, rice, licorice, buckwheat, malt, wort, elder flower, clary sage, shrimp, okra, crab, clam, squid and green maté

使用

In highly dil solutions the odor is pleasant, hence indole has been used in perfumery.

一般的な説明

Indole is classified under the volatile flavor compounds (VFCs). It is known to play significant role in various biological functions such as anti-inflammatory, anticonvulsant, cardiovascular and antibacterial activities.

使用用途

インドールの臭いは、便臭に似た臭いと形容されますが、非常に低濃度の場合は花のような香りを呈する物質です。そのため、香水や香料の成分、花精油調合原料としての用途があります。天然のジャスミン油は、およそ2.5%のインドールを含有しているとされますが、天然オイルはコストが高いため、インドールは合成ジャスミン油の製造にも用いられています。 また、インドールの構造 (インドール環) はいろいろな有機化合物、特に生体物質に含まれています。多くの重要なアルカロイドにインドール母核構造が存在しており、インドール誘導体から作られた医薬品は多いです。 インドール誘導体の一部は19世紀末まで重要な染料の成分として用いられていました。インドールという名前は、植物由来の染料物質である「インディゴ」に由来しています。化学的には、亜硝酸イオンの検出や、有機合成原料 (染料、アルカロイドなど) などの用途で用いられます。

製法・合成法

製造方法

Obtained from the 220 to 260°C boiling fraction of coal tar or by heating sodium phenyl-glycine-o-carboxylate with NaOH, saturating the aqueous solution of the melt with CO2 and finally reducing with sodium amalgam; can be prepared also by the reduction of indoxyl, indoxyl carboxylic acid or indigo.

純化方法
