    Indigo is a blue pigment used to color jeans blue made with 2-nitrobenzaldehyde, distilled water, sodium hydroxide, caustic lye blue pigment in water suspension which we are going to vacuum filter to obtain a dry product it was rinsed with fast evaporating solvents like ether MTBE and ethanol. Recrystallisation was performed blue powder to be used as a pigment. Sublimation and evaporation of Indigo makes beutiful red, purple vapor in a test tube sublimated, resublimated.
