Application
o-Tolidine, a white to reddish crystal or powder with an aniline-like odor, plays a critical role in the production of various dyes due to its chemical properties. Slightly soluble in water but soluble in alcohol, ether, and dilute acids, this compound is often used in paste or wet cake form, offering versatility in dye manufacturing. Additionally, o-Tolidine is employed in the preparation of polyimide and epoxy resin materials, highlighting its importance in both the dye and materials science industries. Despite being a colorless compound in its pure form, commercial samples might exhibit coloration, and they tend to darken when exposed to air. Its utility is further extended through the synthesis of the compound via a benzidine rearrangement process, starting from a hydrazine derivative derived from 2-nitrotoluene.
