Reactant for synthesis of α-ketoamides as inhibitors of Dengue virus protease with antiviral activity in cell-culture
Reactant for preparation of homoallylic amines as antimicrobial agents
Reactant for preparation of pyrrole-based hydrazones as potential tuberculostatics
Reactant for synthesis of neoechinulin A and derivatives
Reactant for synthesis of substituted (Z)-2-(N-benzylindol-3-ylmethylene)quinuclidin-3-one and (Z)-(±)-2-(N-benzylindol-3-ylmethylene)quinuclidin-3-ol derivatives as potent thermal sensitizing agents
Reactant for preparation of RNA-specific live cell imaging probes E36, E144 and F22

Definition

ChEBI: 1-acetylindole-3-carboxaldehyde is an N-acylindole that is N-acetylindole carrying an additional formyl substituent at position 3. It has a role as a plant metabolite. It is a N-acylindole and an arenecarbaldehyde.

General Description

1-Acetyl-3-indolecarboxaldehyde participates in the preparation and characterization of three RNA-specific fluorescent probes (E36, E144 and F22), useful in live cell imaging.
