Aniline Yellow is a yellow azo dye and an aromatic amine. It is a derivative of azobenzene. It has the appearance of an orange powder.

Aniline Yellow was the first azo dye. it was first produced in 1861 by C. Mene. The second azo dye was Bismarck Brown in 1863. Aniline Yellow was commercialized in 1864 as the first commercial azo dye, a year after aniline black. It is manufactured from aniline.

Uses

Aniline Yellow is used in microscopy for vital staining,{{Cite web|url=http://www.microscopy-uk.org.uk/mag/artfeb00/rhvital.html|title=Vital staining for protozoa}} in pyrotechnics for yellow colored smokes, in yellow pigments and inks including inks for inkjet printers. It is also used in insecticides, lacquers, varnishes, waxes, oil stains, and styrene resins. It is also an intermediate in synthesis of other dyes, e.g. chrysoidine, indulines, Solid Yellow, and Acid Yellow.

Safety

Aminoazobenzene compounds are often carcinogenic.{{cite journal |doi=10.1016/s0143-7208(02)00070-0 |title=Mutagenicity of aminoazobenzene dyes and related structures: A QSAR/QPAR investigation |date=2002 |last1=Garg |first1=Ashish |last2=Bhat |first2=Krishna L. |last3=Bock |first3=Charles W. |journal=Dyes and Pigments |volume=55 |pages=35–52 }}
