Thymol blue (thymolsulphonephthalein) is a brownish-green or reddish-brown crystalline powder that is used as a pH indicator. It is insoluble in water but soluble in alcohol and dilute alkali solutions.

Thymol blue transitions from red to yellow at pH 1.2–2.8, and from yellow to blue at pH 8.0–9.6; it is a component of Universal indicator.
At wavelength (378 - 382) nm, extinction coefficient > 8000 and at wavelength (298 - 302) nm , the extinction coefficient > 12000.[2]
Structures[edit]
Thymol blue has different molecular structures at different pH levels.
Safety[edit]
It may cause irritation, and its toxicological properties have not been fully investigated.[3]
