Rhodamine B is a xanthene dye from the group of rhodamines .

history

aqueous rhodamine B solution

The class of rhodamines has been known since at least the 19th century. Rhodamine B is said to have been synthesized for the first time in 1905. It is closely related to rhodamine 6G, a laser dye , and rhodamine WT (water-tracer), from which it differs only in one carboxy group .

presentation

Rhodamine B is formed by heating 2 moles of 3-diethylaminophenol with one mole of phthalic anhydride with the addition of sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid.

Synthesis of Rhodamine B

properties

Luminescence of an aqueous rhodamine B solution

The absorption maximum of rhodamine B is between 542 and 554 nm. The luminescence spectrum of a solution depends on factors such as the solvent, the pH value and, in particular, the temperature. The luminescence of a neutral, aqueous solution has its maximum at around 600 nm.

use

Rhodamine B is used for auramine-rhodamine staining in the laboratory, for staining experiments in nature and as a non-specific fluorescent marker. Rhodamine B solutions are used to demonstrate two-photon photoacoustics .

Rhodamine was and is used in many countries as a food coloring, for cosmetics, as a textile coloring and as a water tracer. This is not done in Europe and the USA, as rhodamine B is classified as potentially carcinogenic , mutagenic and ecotoxic . It is still used as a textile dye and now and then appears as a food dye in sweets or shrimp.
