Abstract

Anthocyanins extracted from flowers of Delonix regia and Hibiscus sabdariffa were coupled with diazotised aniline. Spectroscopic analysis revealed the resulting product to be 4-phenylazo phenol. This study provides a viable use for anthocyanins as an alternative source of phenol used in the synthesis of this dye.
