Application

1-Methylindole-2-carboxaldehyde may be used in the synthesis of indole-based melatonin analog hydrazone derivatives and (E)-5-((benzyloxy)methyl)-5-(((tert-butyldiphenylsilyl)oxy)methyl)-3-((1-methyl-1H-indol-2-yl)methylene)dihydrofuran-2(3H)-one.
Reactant for preparation of:
  • Deazapurine isosteres from acylindoles via pyridine ring annulation
  • 2,4-dichlorocinnamohydroxamic acid analogs for enhancing pharmacokinetics of botulinum neurotoxin serotype A protease inhibitors
  • Tetrahydrocarbazoles via organocatalytic cascade Friedel-Crafts alkylation/Michael addition/aromatization reaction
  • Azides, imines and amines via flow processes of amines and trimethylsilyl azide and aza-Wittig reaction
  • 3-indolylpyridinedicarbonitriles as anti-inflammatory agents
  • Bis(indolyl)methanes as antimicrobial and antioxidant agents

N-methyl-substituted diacylglycerol-indololactones (DAG-indololactones) are newly synthesized effectors of protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms and exhibit substantial selectivity between RasGRP3 and PKCα. We present a comprehensive analysis of membrane interactions and biological activities of several DAG-indololactones. Translocation and binding activity assays
