2465-27-2 Usage
Chemical Properties
Different sources of media describe the Chemical Properties of 2465-27-2 differently. You can refer to the following data:
1. yellow powder
2. Auramine is a yellow crystalline powder or
flaky material.
Uses
Different sources of media describe the Uses of 2465-27-2 differently. You can refer to the following data:
1. Certified for use by fluorescence microscopy in Churukian's modification of Truant's fluorescent method for acid fast bacilli on paraffin sections.
2. Fluorescent stain for acid-resistant bacteria in sputum
Definition
ChEBI: A hydrochloride obtained by combining 4,4'-carbonimidoylbis(N,N-dimethylaniline) with one molar equivalent of hydrogen chloride. A fluorescent stain for demonstrating acid fast organisms in a method similar to the Zieh
Neelsen. It also can be used to make a fluorescent Schiff reagent.
General Description
Yellow flakes or powder.
Air & Water Reactions
Insoluble in water.
Reactivity Profile
AURAMINE O is incompatible with strong oxidizing agents.
Hazard
Probable carcinogen.
Fire Hazard
Flash point data for AURAMINE O are not available. AURAMINE O is probably combustible.
Potential Exposure
Auramine is used industrially as a dye
or dye intermediate for coloring textiles; paper, and leather.
Also used as an antiseptic (a powerful antiseptic in ear and
nose surgery, and treatment of gonorrhea) and fungicide.
Human exposure to auramine occurs principally through
skin absorption or inhalation of vapors. Low-level dermal
exposure to the consumer may occur but would be limited
to any migration of auramine from fabric, leather, or paper
goods.

Purification Methods
It crystallises from EtOH as the hydrochloride and is very slightly soluble in CHCl3, UV: 434nm ( 370). The free base (carbinolamine) has m 136o (from *C6H6). [Goldacre & Phillips J Chem Soc 1724 1949, Conrad et al. Biochemistry 9 1540 1970, Beilstein 14 IV 256.]
Incompatibilities
Incompatible with oxidizers (chlorates,
nitrates, peroxides, permanganates, perchlorates, chlorine,
bromine, fluorine, etc.); contact may cause fires or explosions.
Keep away from alkaline materials, strong bases,
strong acids, oxoacids, epoxides.
Waste Disposal
Consult with environmental
regulatory agencies for guidance on acceptable disposal
practices. Generators of waste containing this contaminant
(≥100 kg/mo) must conform with EPA regulations governing
storage, transportation, treatment, and waste disposal.
Incinerate in furnace with afterburner and scrubber.
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 2465-27-2 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 2,4,6 and 5 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 2 and 7 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 2465-27:
(6*2)+(5*4)+(4*6)+(3*5)+(2*2)+(1*7)=82
82 % 10 = 2
So 2465-27-2 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
