CAS Number: 103-33-3
Azobenzene is an aromatic azo compound featuring a diazene linkage between two phenyl rings, used historically as an acaricide and as a reference compound in pesticide residue analysis. It is employed as a synthetic intermediate in the production of azo-containing dye-fungicide hybrids and as a photoswitchable scaffold in agrochemical photopharmacology research. AB Enterprises supplies Azobenzene in high purity for analytical reference, synthesis, and research applications. The compound exhibits a characteristic orange crystalline form and is well-characterised by UV-Vis spectroscopy, making it suitable for photochemical and formulation research programmes.
