A red pigment was prepared by reaction of chlorogenic acid (CGA) with tryptophan (TRP) in air at pH 9 (37% w/w yield) and evaluated as food dye. The main component of pigment was formulated as an unusual benzochromeno[2,3-b]indole linked to a TRP unit, featuring a cyanine type chromophore (λmax 542, 546 nm, 1% extinction coefficient of the sodium salt = 244 ± 2). The chromophore showed a minimal pH dependence and proved stable for at least 3 h at 90 °C, both at pH 3.6 or 7.0, whereas red wine anthocyanins showed a substantial
