Aspidophytine is an indole alkaloid that has attracted a lot of attention from synthetic chemists.[1][2][3][4] An extract of the cockroach plant, aspidophytine is an insecticidal substance particularly effective against cockroaches.
The suicide note of Harvard doctoral student Jason Altom refers specifically to his stress in trying to synthesize the molecule.
