Description

Transparent triclinic crystals used in a colorimetric reagent to detect trace amounts of nickel, copper, cobalt, or bismuth (Odegaard et al 2000). Dimethylglyoxime reacts with soluble nickel to produce a bright red precipitate. Copper produces a blue precipitate, cobalt gives a brown, and bismuth forms a bright yellow.

Synonyms and Related Terms

2,3-butanedionedioxime; 2,3-diisonitrosobutane; diacetyldioxime
