6-Methoxyindole CAS 3189-13-7

6-Methoxyindole (CAS:3189-13-7) is an important Indole compounds.

Its main applications including:

1. 6-Methoxyindole is a critical methoxy-substituted indole intermediate for neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory drug manufacturing.
2. 6-Methoxyindole is a regular substrate for cross-coupling and electrophilic substitution reactions in fine organic synthesis.
3. 6-Methoxyindole is a raw material for fluorescent biological probes and organic optoelectronic functional heterocyclic derivatives.

1. Seal tightly and store below 25°C in dry dark warehouse to prevent photooxidation of indole skeleton.
2. Minimize repeated opening of packages to avoid discoloration caused by long-term air exposure.
3. Store separately from strong oxidants, concentrated acids and halogenated chemical reagents.

1. Avoid inhalation of crystalline dust; wear dust mask and chemical-resistant gloves during weighing and handling.
2. Do not ingest the solid; flush contaminated eyes and skin with plenty of running water after accidental contact.
3. Dispose waste residues and filtrate following oxygen-containing heterocyclic hazardous waste disposal standards.

1. The 6-position methoxy group brings unique electron-donating effect to adjust molecular metabolic characteristics.
2. Stable indole heterocyclic structure fits most mild heating and catalytic synthesis conditions.
3. High crystalline purity effectively cuts down by-products during bioactive intermediate synthesis.
