title: Isolation and characterization of esters of indole-3-acetic acid from the liquid endosperm of the horse chestnut (Aesculus species).
abstract: Esters of indole-3-acetic acid were extracted and purified from the liquid endosperm of immature fruits of various species of the horse chestnut (Aesculus parviflora, A. baumanni, A. pavia rubra, and A. pavia humulis).  The liquid endosperm contained, at least 12 chromatographically distinct esters.  One of these compounds was purified and characterized as an ester of indole-3-acetic acid and myo-inositol.  A second compound was found to be an ester of indole-3-acetic acid and the disaccharide rutinose (glucosyl-rhamnose).  A third compound was partially characterized as an ester of indole-3-acetic acid and a desoxyaminohexose.
