Description and Uses

3-Methylindole is a naturally abundant pneumotoxin, found primarily in mammalian feces providing its strong fecal odor. In lower concentrations however, the compound has a pleasent aroma, giving orange blossoms and ja smine their pleasing scent. It is often a component of commercial fragrances and perfumes.It helps fluorescent guanosine analogue, which in a dimethoxytrityl, phosphoramidite protected form, can be site-specifically inserted into oligonucleotides through a 3'-5' phosphodiester linkage using an automated DNA synthesizer.
