OZONIZATION OF TRIPHENYLMETHANE DYES.

, p. 3312 - 3316 (1984)
The reaction of Malachite Green (MG, 1a), a model compound of triphenylmethane dye, with ozone proceeded via two paths. The first path involved an ozone attack at the dimethylamino moiety to give a N-formylmethylamino derivative. The second path produced 4-(dimethylamino)benzophenone and p-(dimethylamino)phenol. Other ozonized products were also detected. A discussion is presented of the ozonization mechanism.
