N1,N1,N2,N2-Tetramethyl-3-(10H-phenothiazin-10-yl)-1,2-propanediamine

Description:
N1,N1,N2,N2-Tetramethyl-3-(10H-phenothiazin-10-yl)-1,2-propanediamine, commonly known as methylene blue, is a synthetic dye and a chemical compound with notable biological properties. It appears as a blue crystalline solid and is soluble in water, which contributes to its use in various applications, including as a biological stain and a redox indicator. The compound exhibits a complex structure featuring a phenothiazine moiety, which is responsible for its color and biological activity. Methylene blue has been utilized in medicine for its antiseptic properties and as a treatment for methemoglobinemia, a condition where hemoglobin is unable to effectively release oxygen to body tissues. Additionally, it has applications in microbiology for staining cells and tissues, aiding in the visualization of cellular structures under a microscope. Its chemical stability and ability to undergo redox reactions make it valuable in both laboratory and clinical settings. However, it is essential to handle it with care, as it can cause skin and eye irritation.
