Naphthol Green B is a synthetic iron coordination complex dye belonging to the nitroso dye family. It is the sodium salt of Naphthol Green Y and consists of an iron(III) ion chelated with three sulfonated nitroso-naphthol ligands. This gives the dye its characteristic deep green color, highly soluble in water and has excellent chemical stability.
The dye has a maximum absorption wavelength (λmax) of about 714 nm in aqueous solution, which helps in stable optical applications and reliable performance. Its stable chemical structure and reproducible spectral characteristics build a reliable reagent for laboratory and analytical research.
