| Definition | ChEBI: Gramine is an aminoalkylindole that is indole carrying a dimethylaminomethyl substituent at postion 3. It has a role as a plant metabolite, a serotonergic antagonist, an antiviral agent and an antibacterial agent. It is an aminoalkylindole, an indole alkaloid and a tertiary amino compound. It is a conjugate base of a gramine(1+). | General Description | This substance is a primary reference substance with assigned absolute purity (considering chromatographic purity, water, residual solvents, inorganic impurities). The exact value can be found on the certificate. Produced by PhytoLab GmbH & Co. KG | storage | Room temperature | Purification Methods | Crystallise gramine from diethyl ether, ethanol or acetone. It sublimes at 59o/0.001mm. The hydrochloride crystallises from EtOH/Et2O with m 190.5-191.0o(dec). [Culvenor et al. Aust J Chem 17 1301 1964, Beilstein 22 III/IV 4302, 22/10 V 25.] |
