Discovery of IAA
editthere should be some mention of the discovery of IAA here. [frits Went (1926)]
Auxin section
editThis section is titled "Auxins" but seems to be focused around IAA. It uses "it" presumably in reference to IAA but seems a bit unclear. I can edit from a chemist's perspective unless there is someone else better suited. Shred-69 (talk) 23:52, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Edits 12-2008
editI edited the piece pretty strongly and removed images of indole and acetic acid. If I caused problems, leave a note here or just revert. It's an important cmpd, as things go.--Smokefoot (talk) 03:48, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
IAA is subject of 29666 publications and reports
edit... and 5677 in the past 5 years. --Smokefoot (talk) 13:26, 19 October 2015 (UTC)
- ... and your point, Smokefoot ? --Wuerzele (talk) 06:22, 21 October 2015 (UTC)
- That I am glad to see someone pay attention to this important topic and the hope that we get the most general refs. --Smokefoot (talk) 09:47, 21 October 2015 (UTC)
Methylene group or bridge?
editThe current version of the page mentions that the carboxyl group is attached to the indole ring through a methylene group, shouldn't it state methylene bridge instead? --LoicAnGo (talk) 22:06, 17 April 2016 (UTC)
Systematic IUPAC Name
edit"Systematic IUPAC Name" is presently listed as "2-(1H-indol-3-yl)ethanoic acid".
Now, I am unsure whether This implies that "indol" is considered any more systematic than "acet" - is there a reason why this particular form is given there? is so, or is it not? -- HarJIT (talk) 16:45, 12 July 2016 (UTC) HarJIT (talk) 16:45, 12 July 2016 (UTC)
