Oxindole(2-indolone) is anaromaticheterocyclicorganic compoundwith the formula C6H4CHC(O)NH. It has a bicyclic structure, consisting of a six-memberedbenzenering fused to a five-memberednitrogen-containing ring. Oxindole is a modifiedindolinewith a substituted carbonyl at the second position of the 5-member indoline ring. Classified as a cyclic amide, it is a pale yellow solid.

Formation and reactions

[edit]

Oxindole is derived in nature fromtryptophan,formed by gut bacteria ( "normal flora" ). It is normally metabolized and detoxified from the body by the liver. In excess, it can cause sedation, muscle weakness, hypotension, and coma. Patients withhepatic encephalopathyhave been recorded to have elevated serum oxindole levels.[1]

Treatment withphosphorus pentasulfidegives thethione.

Oxindoles

[edit]
Rhynchophylline,a naturally occurring oxindole is a medicinal used as anNMDA antagonistand acalcium channel blocker.[2]

Beyond, the parent compound, oxindoles include many compounds,[3]for example 3-methyloxindole[4]andsemaxanib.[5]
