Sulfosalicylic acid dihydrate is a polyfunctional metal chelating ligand that may be used as a metal scavenger.to form metal coordination complexes. Sulfosalicylic acid forms proton-transfer dye complexes with diazo compounds such as 4-(phenyldiazenyl)aniline. Proteins are precipitated upon complexation with 5-Sulfosalicylic acid, allowing the qualitative analysis of the resultant turbidity formed in a sample by these complexes leaving solution. Protein precipitation with 5-Sulfosalicylic acid has also been employed as a preparative measure for removing proteins prior to chromatographic analysis.
