Ethyl Green (C.I. 42590; C27H35BrClN3) is a water-soluble triarylmethane dye.[1][2][3]
It is derived from crystal violet by adding a N-ethyl group; crystal violet is therefore a possible contaminant.[3] Changing the N-ethyl group to N-methyl yields methyl green. All three dyes are used as histological stains.[1][3]
