Indole-3-carboxaldehyde-¹³C₃  (Synonyms: 3-Formylindole-¹³C₃)

Indole-3-carboxaldehyde-¹³C (3-Formylindole-¹³C) is a ¹³C labeled Indole-3-carboxaldehyde (HY-W007376). Indole-3-carboxaldehyde (3-Formylindole), a banlangen extract, is the product of the oxidative degradation of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) by crude enzyme preparations from etiolated pea seedlings. Indole-3-carboxaldehyde (3-Formylindole) is a biochemical used to prepare analogs of the indole phytoalexin cyclobrassinin^[1][2].

Stable heavy isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, and other elements have been incorporated into drug molecules, largely as tracers for quantitation during the drug development process. Deuteration has gained attention because of its potential to affect the pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs^[1].
