2-Aminophenol has a variety of uses. As a reducing agent, 2-Aminophenol is marketed under the names of Atomal and Ortol to develop black and white photographs. 2-Aminophenol is an intermediate in the synthesis of dyes. 2-Aminophenol is particularly useful in yielding tridentate ligands for metal-complex dyes when diazotized and coupled to a phenol, naphthol, or other aromatic or resonant dye species. Metal complex dyes using copper or chromium are commonly used for producing dull colors. Tridentate ligand dyes are particularly useful, since they are more stable than their bi- or mono-dentate counterparts.
