BENZIDINE HYDROCHLORIDE 99% AR - 25 gm

Description

Benzidine hydrochloride by Research Lab Fine Chem Industries is a high grade reagent. Also known as 4,4-Diaminobiphenyl dihydrochloride, this organic compound is a derived from Benzidine, an aromatic amine. This reagent is available as a powder which is slightly soluble in water. While this reagent is stable under general conditions, it is incompatible with strong oxidizing agents. CAS No.: 531-85-1 Quantity Provided: 25 gm per bottle Molecular formula: C12H12N.2HCl Molecular weight: 257.16 Assay: minimum 99 % Analytical grade reagentBenzidine hydrochloride has a variety of applications in chemical and biological sectors. This reagent is extensively used as a precursor in organic synthesis to generate various compounds. Derivatives of benzidine are used in the production of dyes. This compound reacts with 1-aminonaphthalene-4-sulfonic acid to produce the Congo red dye. Benzidine is also incorporated as a component of a test for cyanide. It is used to produce 3,3'-Dichlorobenzidine, o-tolidine, o-dianisidine etc. Benzidine can furthermore be used in studies on its mechanisms of genotoxicity. This reagent is suitable for industrial synthesis of products and research applications.
