Abstract

Oxidation of indole-3-acetic acid and its derivatives by peroxidases such as that from horseradish produces many products, including 3-methylene-2-oxindoles. These have long been associated with biological activity, but their reactivity has not been characterized. We have previously demonstrated the potential value of substituted indole acetic acids and horseradish peroxidase as the basis for targeted cancer therapy, since the compounds ...
