Crystal Violet Lactone

Crystal Violet Lactone CAS: 1552-42-7 | MF: C26H29N3O2 | MW: 415.53, Buy now for reliable and reproducible results from Tristains at Chemical World.

The colorless lactone counterpart of crystal violet is the crystal violet Lactone (CVL) (CAS No. 1552-42-7). The compound is characterized by two dimethylaniline groups linked by a tetrahedral carbon atom to a 6-dimethylaminophthalide group at the third position. It has a molecular formula of C26H29N3O2. CVL, or crystal violet lactone paper, is a dye that is well-known because of its characteristic color-changing behavior. It is very soluble in slightly polar or nonpolar organic solvents and is common in applications that need color transitioning quickly and visibly.

Applications

  • Dynamic Printing: Crystal Violet Lactone is frequently applied in dynamic and thermochromic printing methods, in which reversible color modifications are produced by fluctuations in temperature. This feature allows creating more advanced and visually interactive print materials.
  • Acid-Base Chemical Sensors: CVL has found application in acid-base sensors, where it changes colorless-colored at a given pH range, enabling the simple determination of chemical presence or pH change.
  • Fluorescent Dyes: Crystal Violet Lactone functions as a fluorescent dye in biological imaging applications, supporting the observation of cellular structures and biological processes with high sensitivity.
  • Chemical Reaction Monitoring: CVL can be used in chemical experiments to monitor reaction progress via refractive index or pH changes.

Key features

  • Consistency and Reliability: Provides sharp, consistent, and repeatable color changes within defined timeframes, ensuring dependable analytical results.
  • Wide Range of Applications: Demonstrates versatility across laboratory research, industrial sensing, colorimetric printing, and diagnostic applications.
  • Fast and Easily Detectable Color Changes: Produces distinct and easily observable color transitions, making it suitable for monitoring chemical reactions, pH shifts, and environmental changes.

General Description

Crystal violet Lactone (CVL) (CAS No. 1552-42-7) is a colorless crystal violet reagent that is used as an example of a reversible color-change reagent. The molecule has two dimethylaniline groups connected to a 6-dimethylaminophthalide framework by a tetra conventional carbon atom on the 3-position. Having a molecular formula of C26H29N3O2, CVL finds wide application in cases where visual display of temperature, pH or chemical change is needed. Its reversible conversion places it in particular use in chemical sensors and dynamic printing systems.
