Abstract
Indole derivatives are key components of natural products and possess a wide range of biological and pharmaceutical applications. Here, we present the synthesis of a new indole derivative, namely 2-(1-ethyl-5-nitro-1H-indole-7-carbonyl)butyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate. The structural elucidation of this compound was accomplished through comprehensive spectroscopic analysis, including Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS). Our molecular docking study revealed that this compound exhibits strong affinity towards tyrosinase, making it a promising candidate as an antioxidant agent.
