Description

Chloranilic acid is used in spectrophotometry. It reacts with metal ions to form stable complexes. It is also used as a reactant in the preparation of dimethylbipyridyl complexes and (nonylbenzimidazolylmethyl)benzene. Further, it is used in charge-transfer reactions with metoprolol tartrate. It is also employed in the synthesis of osmium metalla-rectangles with anticancer activity. In addition to this, it has potential antibacterial activities against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
