Indole-3-butyric acid -d 2 (Indolebutyric acid-d 2 ) is the deuterium labeled Indole-3-butyric acid. Indole-3-butyric acid (3-indolebutyric acid) is a plant growth auxin and a good rooting agent. It can promote herbs and woody ornamental plant rooting and used for improving fruit rate. Indole 3-butyric acid is an auxin precursor, and is converted to indole 3-acetic acid (IAA) in a peroxisomal β-oxidation process [1].
In Vitro, Stable heavy isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, and other elements have been incorporated into drug molecules, largely as tracers for quantitation during the drug development process. Deuteration has gained attention because of its potential to affect the pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs.
