Identification
Name: 4-dimethylaminophenylazobenzene
Description:4-(Dimethylamino)azobenzene is formerly used as a food dye, use discontinued.Methyl yellow, or C.I. 11020, is a chemical compound which may be used as a pH indicator. In aqueous solution at low pH, methyl yellow appears red. Between pH 2.9 and 4.0, methyl yellow undergoes a transition, to become yellow above pH 4.0. As "butter yellow" the agent had been used as a food additive before its toxicity was recognized (Opie EL). (Wikipedia) 4-(dimethylamino)azobenzene belongs to the family of Aromatic Homomonocyclic Compounds. These are aromatic compounds containig only one ring, which is homocyclic.
