Color Visible spectrum

In summary, aromatic amines are organic compounds with a distinct chemical structure that can have a brown color due to the presence of a chromophore. However, the color can vary depending on the specific chemical structure and functional groups attached to the benzene ring, and may not always be safe for use. Factors such as degree of conjugation, substituents, and pH can also affect the color of aromatic amines. It is important to properly handle and dispose of these compounds to avoid potential health hazards.

TL;DR Summary: I did not find any scientific sources about aromatic amines turning brown. Moreover, when analyzing with UV-VIS spectrophotometer they give a flat curve in the visible area despite having this brown color, how is this possible?
