The molecule is an indolyl carboxylate ester obtained by formal condensation of one of the primary hydroxy groups of D-arabinitol with the carboxy group of (2R)-2-(indol-3-yl)propanoic acid. It has a role as a plant metabolite, a fungal metabolite and a plant growth regulator. It is a pentitol derivative and an indolyl carboxylate ester. It derives from a D-arabinitol.
