Dithizone is a sulfur-containing organic compound used primarily as a reagent in analytical chemistry for detecting metals such as zinc, lead, and mercury. This chemical forms colored chelates with certain metal ions, which can be quantified spectrophotometrically, making it useful in metal ion assays and environmental monitoring. Dithizone’s sensitivity and selectivity for these metals make it particularly valuable in the detection of trace amounts in water samples, contributing to efforts in environmental protection and safety.
