Abstract
3-[2-hydroxy-5-(5-hydroxy-1H-indol-3-yl)-1H-pyrrol-3-yl] indol-one depicts a multifaceted pigment which was discovered in distinct bacteria species like Chromobacterium violaceum, Duganella sp. , Collimonas sp. , D. violaceinigra , Pseudoalteromonas sp. , J. svalbardensis , Janthinobacteriumlividum, etc. 3-[2-hydroxy-5-(5-hydroxy-1H-indol-3-yl)-1H-pyrrol-3-yl] indol-one is liable for the stunning purple pastels which demonstrates a variety of biological behaviors and is reportedly garnering growing popularity in industrial- market segments, for instance, textiles, medicine, cosmetics etc. It is perhaps a novel therapeutic category of drug which is L-tryptophan originated displays anti-cancer along with antibiotic action. The intention of this review was to identify the numerous applications of 3-[2-hydroxy-5-(5-hydroxy-1H-indol-3-yl)-1H-pyrrol-3-yl] indol-one and evaluate its varied biochemical properties in a pharmacological sense, including its antioxidant, antitumor, anti-trypanocidal, antibacterial, anti-ulcerogenic, anticancer and immunomodulatory activities. Additionally, its usage in cosmetics, food, textiles, toys along with insecticides has stemmed as peculiar emerging segments of applications of 3-[2-hydroxy-5-(5-hydroxy-1H-indol-3-yl)-1H-pyrrol-3-yl] indol-one have been reviewed here.
