Murexide It is an important reagent widely used in analytical chemistry and laboratory research CAS 3051-09-0 EC 221-553-0 Level IND

Applications

1. Metal Ion Indicator Murexide is widely used for detecting metal ions, particularly calcium ions (Ca²⁺) and magnesium ions (Mg²⁺). In complexometric titrations, Murexide forms complexes with metal ions, causing a color change that helps determine the titration endpoint. Specifically, the complex formed with calcium or magnesium ions changes color from purple to red or orange.
2. Complexometric Titration In EDTA (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) titration, Murexide serves as an indicator to signal the endpoint through a color change. When EDTA fully complexes with the free metal ions, the solution’s color shifts from purple to yellow or orange, indicating the endpoint of the titration.
3. Spectrophotometric Analysis Murexide is also used in spectrophotometry as a chromogenic agent for metal ions. By measuring the absorbance of the solution, the concentration of metal ions can be quantitatively analyzed. This method offers high sensitivity and good selectivity.

Safety and Storage

Murexide should be stored in a dry, cool, and dark environment to avoid high temperatures and humidity. Appropriate protective measures should be taken during use, such as wearing gloves, safety goggles, and lab coats to prevent skin contact and inhalation of dust.

Handling Precautions

• Protective Equipment: During experimental operations, appropriate personal protective equipment, including gloves, safety goggles, and lab coats, should be worn.
• Waste Disposal: Used solutions and residues should be disposed of according to laboratory chemical waste disposal procedures to avoid environmental contamination.
• First Aid Measures: In case of accidental contact, immediately rinse with plenty of water and seek medical attention.
