Born on November 28, 1800, Dumas made significant contributions to the field of chemistry, particularly in the areas of organic chemistry and the study of dyestuffs. He is best known for his work on the composition of indigo and the identification of the structure of quinine, which led to the development of a more efficient method for producing this vital malaria treatment.

He later served as the Minister of Finance and the Minister of the Interior. As a statesman, Dumas advocated for the advancement of science and education in France, and he played a crucial role in the establishment of the École Supérieure de Pharmacie in Paris.
