Product Information

• Name: 1,5-Diphenylcarbazide
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 1,5-Diphenylcarbazide is a chemical compound that is used in analytical chemistry. It can be used to detect trace amounts of metals by using the surface methodology and potassium dichromate as a catalyst. The potassium dichromate catalyzes the reaction between methyl ethyl ketone, chromium, and copper chloride. Methyl ethyl ketone reacts with chromium to produce an unstable intermediate that decomposes into methyl ethyl and chromium oxide. This reaction produces two products: one volatile (methyl ethyl) and one non-volatile (chromium oxide). The volatile product can be detected by mass spectroscopy in plasma mass spectrometry. 1,5-Diphenylcarbazide has been shown to have a high detection sensitivity for many metals, including copper, nickel, zinc, lead, cadmium and mercury. ; 1,5-Diphenylcarbazide is also used in plant physiology studies to study photos
