ethyl 2-{7-hydroxy-1H,2H,3H,4H-cyclopenta[b]indol-3-yl}acetate; CAS No.: 1206124-13-1;ethyl 2-{7-hydroxy-1H,2H,3H,4H-cyclopenta[b]indol-3-yl}acetate. PROPERTIES: Ethyl 2-{7-hydroxy-1H,2H,3H,4H-cyclopenta[b]indol-3-yl}acetate is a substituted indole ester with a molecular weight of 301.32 g/mol. This off-white crystalline solid has a melting point between 110-113 C. The molecule features a cyclopenta[b]indole ring system with a hydroxyl group at position 7 and an ethyl acetate substituent at position 3. It demonstrates moderate solubility in common organic solvents such as ethyl acetate and methanol but limited water solubility. Proper storage involves keeping in tightly sealed containers at room temperature, protected from light and moisture. Safety considerations include the hydroxyl group's potential to form hydrogen bonds and the ester group's flammability. Standard laboratory safety protocols should be observed. APPLICATIONS: This compound primarily serves as a synthetic intermediate in the production of agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals, where the hydroxylated indole structure provides essential binding affinity to target enzymes. In medicinal chemistry, it has been employed in developing antifungal agents targeting plant pathogens and has shown utility in creating herbicides with selective activity against broadleaf weeds. The indole-3-acetate ester structure has also been explored in materials science for developing fluorescent probes, leveraging the electron-rich indole core to tune optical properties. These applications are supported by research published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry and Dyes and Pigments.
