Application

3-Indoleacetic acid (IAA) can be used as a building block to synthesize ,(±) harmacine using 4,4-diethoxybutan-1-amine via an acid-catalyzed acyl iminium ion cyclization reaction.
(±)-Harmacine is a vital step in the synthesis of a variety of indole alkaloids and dopamine/serotonin receptor ligands. IAA can also be used in the preparation of alkaloid (±)-19-hydroxyibogamine.

Topoisomerase II (TOP2) relieves torsional stress by forming transient cleavage complex intermediates (TOP2ccs) that contain TOP2-linked DNA breaks (DSBs). While TOP2ccs are normally reversible, they can be "trapped" by chemotherapeutic drugs such as etoposide and subsequently converted into irreversible TOP2-linked
