 It was an unfair question - I have read almost every reference to
Orthochrome T. Many references to the formula are wong...

1-ethyl-2-[(1-ethyl-6-methyl-4(1H)-quinolinylidene)methyl]-6-methy l-,iodide

Nice job!

I can't look it up now, but I remember Baker's book described a that
dye (along with Orthochrome T) with suggested doses in terms of a per
cent fraction of AgBr (was it something like 0.05%?). (definitely not
meant to be a recipe.)
