6-Fluoroindole(Cat No.:R044764)is a fluorinated aromatic heterocycle derived from indole, where a fluorine atom is substituted at the 6-position of the benzene ring. This modification enhances its chemical reactivity and biological relevance. Widely used as a building block in pharmaceutical synthesis, 6-Fluoroindole is instrumental in the development of kinase inhibitors, antimicrobial agents, and serotonin receptor ligands. Its electron-withdrawing fluorine atom can modulate bioactivity and metabolic stability, making it valuable in medicinal chemistry. Additionally, it serves as a key intermediate in creating fluorinated tryptophan analogs for structural biology and protein labeling applications.
