Schiff's reagent is an aqueous solution of the violet-red dye [[fuchsin]]u to which bisulfite or sulfite is added. Hydrogen sulphite is adducted to the central carbon atom, thereby disrupting the quinoid structure that conditions the colour. A colorless fuchsin sulfuric acid solution is formed. After adding even a small amount of aldehyde, sulfuric acid is released from the bond to fuchsin, which binds to the aldehyde group with a stronger bond. In the fuchsin molecule, the quinoid structure is restored and the solution turns violet-red again.

Preparation of Schiff's reagent and principle of its reaction with aldehyde Schiff's reagent is an aqueous solution of the violet-red dye fuchsinu to which bisulfite or sulfite is added. Hydrogen sulphite is adducted to the central carbon atom, thereby disrupting the quinoid structure that conditions the colour. A colorless fuchsin sulfuric acid solution is formed. After adding even a small amount of aldehyde, sulfuric acid is released from the bond to fuchsin, which binds to the aldehyde group with a stronger bond. In the fuchsin molecule, the quinoid structure is restored and the solution turns violet-red again.
