Azo violet (Magneson I; [1] p-nitrobenzeneazoresorcinol) is an azo compound with the chemical formula C 12 H 9 N 3 O 4. It is used commercially as a violet dye and experimentally as a pH indicator, appearing yellow below pH 11, and violet above pH 13. [2] It also turns deep blue in the presence of magnesium salt in a slightly alkaline, or basic ...
It is known in medicine as Gentian violet (or crystal violet or pyoctanin(e) [1]) and is the active ingredient in a Gram stain, used to classify bacteria. It is used as a pH indicator, with a range between 0 and 1.6. The protonated form (found in acidic conditions) is yellow, turning blue-violet above pH levels of 1.6. [4]
Violet is the color of light at the short wavelength end of the visible spectrum. It is one of the seven colors that Isaac Newton labeled when dividing the spectrum of visible light in 1672. Violet light has a wavelength between approximately 380 and 450 nanometers. [2] The color's name is derived from the Viola genus of flowers. [3] [4]
