Indole, is classified as an aromatic heterocyclic compound. It features a bicyclic structure, which includes a six-carbon benzene ring fused to a five-carbon pyrrole ring. Indole is abundant in nature, predominantly found as the amino acid tryptophan and the neurotransmitter serotonin. Within the core structure of a drug, the indole nucleus engages in key interactions such as acting as a hydrogen bond donor and participating in π-π stacking or cation-π interactions with the target protein. The indole structure is highly favored in drug discovery, with over 17 marketed drugs containing indole, the majority of which are kinase inhibitors. Specifically, the amino- and diamino-indole fragments are particularly common in these drugs. AmBeed provides a collection of indole derivatives intended for pharmaceutical development.
