3-Aminophthalic acid is an organic compound with the formula C₈H₇NO₄ that glows when it is oxidized from luminol, identified by CAS number 5434-20-8.
Our high-purity 3-Aminophthalic Acid is widely utilized across various critical manufacturing and synthetic processes.
Forms naturally when luminol reacts with hydrogen peroxide and the iron in hemoglobin to detect hidden bloodstains at crime scenes.
The resulting 3-aminophthalate ion releases energy in the form of a distinct blue light, making it invaluable for luminescent detection.
Serves as a highly versatile chemical intermediate utilized to build complex pharmaceutical products and specialized organic materials.
