Tetramethylrhodamine (TAMRA) is a xanthene dye with orange emission. The dye is a FRET acceptor for FAM and is sometimes used as a quencher of FAM. Like other xanthenes, TAMRA exists as two isomers (5- and 6-) with similar spectral properties. This compound is a pure 5-isomer of TAMRA.

TAMRA carboxylic acid is a non-reactive form of TAMRA dye that can be used as a reference standard in experiments involving TAMRA dye conjugates. Besides, the carboxylic group can react with hydrazines, hydroxylamines, and amines using carbodiimides such as EDAC.
