Nuclear magnetic resonance investigations of azo-hydrazone, acid-base equilibria of FD&C Yellow No. 5 (tartrazine)

Azo-hydrazone, acid-base equilibria were examined for the water-soluble, food color additive FD Yellow No. 5 (Y5), with the observation of dynamic NMR effects near, and at, pH 10, where the food colorant converts from a predominantly hydrazone tautomer (acidic to moderately basic pH) to a prevailing...

Zusammenfassung:Azo-hydrazone, acid-base equilibria were examined for the water-soluble, food color additive FD Yellow No. 5 (Y5), with the observation of dynamic NMR effects near, and at, pH 10, where the food colorant converts from a predominantly hydrazone tautomer (acidic to moderately basic pH) to a prevailing azo-anion resonance hybrid (high pH). Potentiometric titrations further indicate that the pKa of Y5 is ca. 10.
