A new donor-π-acceptor (D-π-A) type isophorone dye was synthesized by the condensation reaction between 2-(3,5,5-trimethylcyclohex-2-enylidene)-malononitrile and indole-3-carboxaldehyde. The chemical structure of the dye was characterized by 1H NMR, EA and MS. A novel, chromogenic, fluorescent dye based on indol as

3 ketone solvents (methyl ethyl ketone (MEK), methyl isobutyl ketone (MiBK), and isophorone) were tested for potential genotoxicity. The assays of MEK and MiBK included the Salmonella/microsome (Ames) assay, L5178Y/TK+/- mouse lymphoma (ML) assay, BALB/3T3 cell transformation (CT) assay, unscheduled
