I think you're using the wrong directive here- *ngIf is moreso to check if we should display the content at all, not to make an assignment and change a a variable. It requires a statement that evaluates a true or false, and cannot do assignments.

Something like the following might work better for you, if your goal is to display a certain name, rather than to hide content with certain values. 

<div> {{ detail.name === 'dieselG_d' ? 'Diesel Green' : 'Diesel Red' }} </div>
