Indole compounds released by Hebeloma hiemale Bres. in pure culture were studied by cultivating the fungus on a nutrient solution supplemented or not with 1 mM tryptophan. Analytical thin-layer chromatography revealed numerous indole compounds in 7-week-old culture filtrates obtained in the presence of tryptophan. Such compounds were isolated by preparative thin-layer chromatography and purified by high performance liquid chromatography. The most abundant of them, i.e., indolyl-3-acetic acid, indolyl-3-carboxylic acid, and indole-3-aldehyde, were identified by mass spectrometry. Indole-3-aldehyde and indolyl-3-carboxylic acid, which were detected in filtrates throughout the culture period, might result from breakdown of indolyl-3-acetic acid by fungal exocellular enzymes.
