Abstract
A method for the synthesis of dyes is described. More particularly, a method is described for preparing indigo, optionally substituted, that includes reacting anthranilic acid, optionally substituted, with glyoxylic acid under hydrogenation in the presence of a metal catalyst in a solvent, to obtain 2-(carboxymethylamino)benzoic acid, optionally substituted, and conversion of the latter to indigo, optionally substituted.
