The aluminum-calcium complex salt of alizarin is a representative of the madder lakes , which are considered to be traditional coloring agents .

It is a monometallic chelate complex that is formed from alizarin molecules as ligands and aluminum and calcium ions as central particles by laking .

The structural proposal by Kiel and Heertjes (1963). is still often adopted or varied (e.g.) by today's literature, but has not yet been clarified with certainty. Recent studies have shown that these previous models were wrong. In the current model by Wunderlich and Bergerhoff , a multinuclear, bridged complex is proposed for the molecule in which two aluminum atoms and two calcium atoms are chelated by 4 alizarin molecules. In addition, the metal atoms are connected to one another by oxo bridges. Since the calcium-aluminum complex of alizarin is not electrically neutral, two protons per molecule must still be present in the structure for charge equalization. However, the position of the protons in the complex has not yet been determined.

use

The red pigment alizarin madder

In environmental terms, aluminum complexation by alizarin and its derivatives can be used to easily and inexpensively detect dissolved aluminum ( toxic ) in drinking water.

The complex is a traditional red coloring pigment that is available in retail outlets under the name "Alizarin dark madder". It is mainly used as an artist's paint and as a printing ink for food packaging.
