Natural Product Identification
Common NameIndican glucoside
DescriptionIndican, also known as indican, plant or uroxanthin, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as o-glycosyl compounds. These are glycoside in which a sugar group is bonded through one carbon to another group via a O-glycosidic bond. Indican is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Indican is a colourless organic compound, soluble in water, naturally occurring in Indigofera plants. Indican interferes with many commercial procedures for measuring total bilirubin which can be a problem for renal failure patients where blood indican levels are raised. Tryptophan is first converted to indole (excreted in faeces), then to indican by bacteria in the gut. The enzyme "indoxyl esterase" has been found in humans and is involved in another pathway of chemical reactions involving indoxyl. A reaction, similar to the above-mentioned is seen in the normal population, who excrete small amounts of the chemical in their urine. Indican glucoside is found in Calanthe discolor, Celosia argentea, Indigofera spp. , Indigofera suffruticosa, Indigofera tinctoria , Isatis indigotica , Polygonum perfoliatum, Polygonum tinctorium, Polygonum tinctorum and Strobilanthes cusia. Indican glucoside was first documented in 1975 (PMID: 1199990). Common and significant reactions involving indican are as follows:Indican is a glycoside.
