Patent blue V ( English patent blue or acid blue 3 ) is a triphenylmethane dye that is mainly used as a food dye (E 131). Patent blue V is one of the patent blue dyes and was developed as the first representative of this group of dyes in 1888 by Meister Lucius & Brüning , later Hoechst AG.

properties

The systematic name is 2,4-disulfone-5-hydroxy-4 ′, 4 ″ -bis (diethylamino) -triphenylcarbinol or 4- [4,4 ′ -Bis (diethylamino) -α-hydroxy-benzhydryl] -6- hydroxy-benzene-1,3-disulfonic acid . The naming of two systematic names is due to the fact that triphenylmethane dyes can be represented as carbenium ions or in quinoid form.

The dark blue powder is easily soluble in water and ethanol . In an acidic solution, Patent Blue V is green-yellow, in a basic solution it is blue.

synthesis

Patent blue V is obtained by condensation of 3-hydroxybenzaldehyde with N , N- diethylaniline , subsequent sulfonation and oxidation with manganese dioxide .

use

Patent blue V is used as a food coloring. It is due to its strong blue color and high brilliance mainly as a dye for sugar confectionery (eg fruit gum.), Glazes, drinks (eg. Blue Curacao - liqueur or together with quinoline in " Woodruff " -Getränken) and Jello , Medicines and Easter eggs use. A disadvantage of Patent Blue V is its poor lightfastness . It is toxicologically safe as in metabolism studies , it was found that after oral hardly recording absorbed is.

Patent blue V is not approved in Australia, the United States, China and Norway because patent blue V is believed to be a trigger for allergies.

In medicine it is used to mark tissue, for example sentinel lymph nodes . Alcohol-based disinfectants such as B. Sterillium , are stained with patent blue.
