Pyrocoll is a small secondary metabolite formed by the dimerisation of pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid and produced by many Streptomyces species. Pyrocoll is an important dereplication standard in discovery, displaying a highly distinctive UV spectrum. The biological activity of pyrocoll has received little attention.
Pyrocoll is soluble in ethanol, methanol, DMF and DMSO.
