This document is a project report submitted by Sujit Soumitra Sahoo, Basudev Baral, and Suchismitra Mishra for their M.Sc in Applied Chemistry. The report discusses diazotization reactions, the synthesis of various azo dyes including Methyl Red and Methyl Orange, and an analysis of the antimicrobial activities of the synthesized azo dyes. Key experiments included the diazotization of sulfanilic acid and anthranilic acid, and coupling reactions to synthesize the azo dyes. The report also provides background on diazonium salt reactions and applications of azo dyes as indicators and in sulfa drug synthesis.
