Green S is a green synthetic coal tar triarylmethane dye with the molecular formula C₂₇H₂₅N₂O₇S₂Na.

As a food dye, it has E number E142. It can be used in mint sauce, desserts, gravy granules, sweets, ice creams, and tinned peas. Green S is prohibited as a food additive in Canada, United States, Japan, and Norway.^[3] It is approved for use as a food additive in the EU^[4] and Australia and New Zealand.^[5]
