2,3,5-Triphenyltetrazolium chloride Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Chemical Properties

white powder

Uses

2,3,5-Triphenyl-2H-tetrazolium chloride is used as a dye in cell biological studies.

Uses

2,3,5-Triphenyltetrazolium chloride is a selective serotonin 5-HT4 receptor agonist and 5-HT3 gastrointestinal prokinetic agent for functional dyspepsia

Uses

In analytical chemistry as a sensitive reagent for reducing sugars, and to distinguish between a-ketols and simple aldehydes. For staining plant and animal tissue. Germination indicator in testing the ability of seeds to germinate: G. Lakon, Ber. Dtsch. Bot. Ges. 60, 299, 434 (1942). In histochemical studies. In determination of antibiotics; of dehydrogenases.

Definition

ChEBI: An organic chloride salt having 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium as the counterion.

General Description

2,3,5-Triphenyltetrazolium chloride is a colorless water-soluble dye. In the mitochondria of living cells, it is reduced to a deep red, water-insoluble compound (formazan). 2,3,5-Triphenyltetrazolium chloride helps to distinguish between viable and infarcted brain tissue after stroke.

Synthesis

531-52-2

298-96-4

E. The 2,3,5-triphenylformamidine (IV-1) solid obtained in Step D was mixed with 300 mL of dichloromethane and 300 mL of water. After the solid was completely dissolved, N-chlorosuccinimide (0.11 mol, 14.7 g) was added and the reaction was carried out with stirring at 0 °C for 5 h. F. The reaction mixture from Step E was allowed to partition and the upper aqueous phase was separated. The organic phase was distilled under reduced pressure to remove the solvent to give the crude product 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazole (V-1). The crude product was purified by recrystallization with chloroform to give 30.2 g of pure product (yield: 90%).

Purification Methods

Crystallise TTZ from EtOH or CHCl3, and dry it at 105o. [Beilstein 26 H 363, 26 II 216, 26 III/IV 1774.]
