CATECHOL VIOLET AR under Research Lab Fine Chem Industries catalogue.CATECHOL VIOLET AR has been used in the formation of dye-metal complexes. It has also been used to determine Cu2+ chelating activity.
A non-specific photometric metal ion indicator Pyrocatechol Violet (PV) was tested for its potential use in a metal-sensitive optrode membrane. ... It was found that the ability of PV to form complexes with metal ions significantly reduced following immobilisation, with the exception of Cu(II).
Catechol Violet is used as a complexometric indicator dye. It inhibits the synthesis of globin in reticulocyte lysates. It is also used as a pH indicator with a transition interval from 0 to 8. Soluble in water, ethylene glycol, monomethyl ether and ethanol.
Phenylethyl resorcinol (4-(1-phenylethyl)1,3-benzenediol) (PR) (Figure 1) is a new whitening agent that has been found to have the ability to inhibit tyrosinase activity [1]. PR has been shown to serve as a whitening and brightening ingredient in skin care products, hair lightening products, and cosmetics.
