Making the First Azo Dye
In this video I make the very first azo dye using some 2-naphthol and p-nitroaniline I made in previous videos.
This is one of the final endpoints of a very long synthesis series I've been working on for over a year.
If you're curious, the other major videos that I intend to put out using one or more of the chemicals I made for this video include: Sudan I, Nile Red, Nile Blue, Alizarin Yellow, Aniline Yellow, and a few others I can't remember at the moment.
Enjoy!
