As nouns the difference between indole and indolate
is that indole is an organic compound, C8H7N, found in coal tar, and produced in the gut by the bacterial decomposition of tryptophan; it is an aromatic bicyclic heterocycle having a benzene ring fused with a pyrrole ring; indole and its derivatives occur widely in nature and have many industrial applications while indolate is any anion (or salt containing such an anion) derived from an indole by removal of the hydrogen atom bound to the nitrogen atom.
