QUICK LINKS

Chrysoidine R, identified by its CAS number 4438-16-8, is a synthetic azo dye characterized by its vibrant orange color. This compound consists of an azo group (-N=N-) linked between two aromatic rings, which is a typical structure for azo dyes, giving them their vivid colors and high molar extinction coefficients. In research contexts, Chrysoidine R has been extensively utilized as a model compound to study the behavior and properties of azo dyes within environmental systems and during various chemical processes. Its mechanisms of action in these studies often focus on its interaction with light and other chemicals. For instance, Chrysoidine R is frequently used in photodegradation studies to understand how azo dyes decompose under exposure to ultraviolet light, a process crucial for assessing the environmental impact of dye pollution in water bodies. Additionally, its interaction with microbial enzymes has been explored in the context of biodegradation, where researchers investigate how bacterial and fungal enzymes break down azo dyes, potentially leading to less harmful byproducts. The dye′s ability to undergo reductive cleavage at the azo bond under anaerobic conditions is also a key area of study, providing insights into anaerobic wastewater treatment processes. Through these research applications, Chrysoidine R aids in advancing knowledge on the environmental fate of azo dyes and enhancing strategies for pollution control and remediation.
