A white crystalline organic compound, C9H9N, with a strong fecal odor, found naturally in feces, civet, coal tar, and certain plants or produced synthetically, used as a fixative in the manufacture of perfume. [Greek skōr, skat-, dung; see sker- in Indo-European roots + -ole.]skatole (ˈskætəʊl) or skatoln (Elements & Compounds) a white or brownish crystalline solid with a strong faecal odour, found in faeces, beetroot, and coal tar; B-methylindole. Formula: C9H9N[C19: from Greek skat-, stem of skōr excrement + -ole1]skat•ole (ˈskæt oʊl, -ɔl) n. a white, crystalline, water-soluble solid, C9H9N, having a strong, fecal odor: used chiefly as a fixative in perfume making.

skatole[′ska‚tōl] (organic chemistry) C9H9N A white, crystalline compound that melts at 93-95°C, dissolves in hot water, and has an unpleasant feceslike odor. Also known as 3-methylindole. Skatole (also beta-methylindole), a foul-smelling substance occurring as colorless crystals and having the structural formula Skatole has a melting point of 95 °C and a boiling point of 265°C; it is insoluble in water and soluble in organic solvents. Extremely dilute solutions of the compound have a pleasant floral odor. Skatole is present in small amounts in coal tar and secretions of the civet cat. It is formed from tryptophan during the splitting of proteins by putrefactive bacteria in the colon, hence the fecal odor. Synthetic skatole is obtained by, for example, heating phe-nylhydrazone of propionaldehyde (C6H5NH—N=CHC2H5) with ZnCl2 and is used in perfumery. [23–1481–] skatoleenUK
