Abstract
The synthesis of δ-3 (indolyl) -valeric acid, by a procedure analogous to that employed in the synthesis of its lower homologues, is described. It, as well as a bz-methyl derivative of β-3(indolyl)-propionic acid, which has also been synthesized, was found to possess the plant physiological properties of a phytohormone.Keywords
