Description
The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of easily dispersible pigments, of high tinctorial strength, based on isoindoline.
Compounds of the formula ##STR2## where A and B inter alia have the meanings given later, and their preparation, are disclosed in German Laid-Open Application DOS 1,670,748. According to page 9 of this DOS, the reaction which gives the monocondensation product (ie. the 1st stage) is carried out in a lower alkanol, glycol, glycol monoether, diglycol monoether or lower carboxylic acid amide as the reaction medium. In the case of readily water-soluble 1-amino-3-imino-isoindolines, water or an alcohol-water mixture can allegedly be used as the reaction medium. In these reactions, the addition of an ammonia-binding agent can be advantageous, especially if the starting component contains groups which react with ammonia.
The condensation of the monocondensation product to give the bis-condensation product (ie. the 2nd stage) is preferably carried out in a relatively high boiling solvent.
Using the prior art process, the condensation products of the formula I are obtained in only moderate yield and in a form which is ill-suited for use as a pigment, especially for use in coloring plastics and surface coatings in pure or almost pure shades.
The pigments thus obtained are difficult to disperse in plastics and accordingly give pale colorations. Furthermore, surface coatings which contain the prior art pigment are insufficiently lightfast and fast to weathering.
As will be appreciated from the Examples which follow, the present invention provides a process for the preparation of pigments of the formula I which have high tinctorial strength and in particular are easily dispersible in plastics, the process being one which entails less pollution of the effluent by solvents.
According to the invention, a pigment, having improved technological properties, of the formula ##STR3## where A is cyano, carbamoyl, N-phenylcarbamoyl, N-(chlorophenyl)-carbamoyl or an unsaturated heterocyclic 5-membered or 6-membered radical fused to a benzene ring, and B is a barbituric acid radical, is obtained by condensing 1-amino-3-imino-isoindoline with the appropriate cyanomethylene compound at pH >7 and then with barbituric acid at pH 1.5-3.5 in a liquid reaction medium at from 20.degree. to 150.degree. C., if the condensation is carried out in the presence of water, or in water.
Examples of 5-membered or 6-membered heterocyclic radicals fused to a benzene ring are benzimidazol-2-yl and preferably quinazol-2-yl.
Examples of barbituric acid radicals B are those of N-methylbarbituric acid, N-phenylbarbituric acid, 2-thiobarbituric acid, 2-iminobarbituric acid, 2-N-cyanoiminobarbituric acid and unsubstituted barbituric acid, as well as radicals derived from mixtures of the said barbituric acids. Preferably, B is the (unsubstituted) barbituric acid radical.
The process according to the invention gives the pigments of the formula I directly in an easily dispersible pigmentary form of high tinctorial strength. Depending on how the reaction is carried out in the 2nd stage, either transparent or highly scattering (ie. high-hiding) pigmentary forms of I can be prepared. In plastics, especially in thermoplastics, eg. rigid PVC, polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, polyacrylate, polymethacrylate, copolymers of styrene, acrylonitrile, butadiene and/or acrylic acid esters, and plasticized PVC, the products give lightfast, brilliant and deep colorations. In surface coatings, they give deep and brilliant colorations which are lightfast in the case of pure or almost pure shades.
The process according to the invention can be carried out by first reacting 1-amino-3-imino-isoindoline, prepared in the conventional manner, with an equimolar amount of the cyanomethylene compound ##STR4## at pH >7 (stage 1). The resulting monocondensation product of stage 1 is then condensed further with an equimolar amount of barbituric acid, at pH 1.5-3.5, to give the pigment I (stage 2).
The process can be carried out by first isolating the product of stage 1 and only then carrying out the further condensation. Advantageously, however, the condensations comprising the 1st and 2nd stage are carried out in the same reaction vessel (and in the same reaction medium). In that case, after completion of the monocondensation the pH of the reaction medium is brought to 1.5-3.5 by adding acid.
Reaction media for the process of the invention are especially water and mixtures of water with organic water-miscible solvents.
Examples of solvent are the C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkanols, i.e., methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, n-propanol, n-butanol, isobutanol and tert.-butanol, C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 -alkanediols, ie. ethylene glycol, 1,2- and 1,3-propylene glycol and the butanediols, glycol monoalkyl ethers, eg. the monomethyl, monoethyl, monopropyl and monobutyl ethers of ethylene glycol and of diethylene glycol, lower carboxylic acid amides, eg. dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide and dimethylpropionamide, and cyclic amides, eg. N-methylpyrrolidone.
The preferred reaction media are water and a mixture of water and ethylene glycol.
The condensation in stage 1 occurs smoothly at pH >7 and a temperature of from 20.degree. to 100.degree. C., preferably from 40.degree. to 80.degree. C., after having added the compound II. It gives the monocondensation product, of the formula ##STR5## in the pure form, ie. extremely little, if any, bis-condensation product is formed under the reaction conditions.
Advantageously, the reaction mixture is then brought to a pH of from 1.5 to 3.5 by adding an acid either before or after adding the barbituric acid. The further condensation to give compound I conveniently takes place at from 20.degree. to 150.degree. C., preferably from 40.degree. to 100.degree. C.
The amount of added acid can be selected so that the ammonia liberated during the reaction is chemically bonded and hence neutralized, and therefore the pH remains at from 1.5 to 3.5. Preferably, the condensation in stage 2 is carried out by keeping the pH in the reaction mixture within the desired range by adding acid in portions or continuously. In this way, the condensation in stage 2 can be carried out within a narrow pH range.
Examples of acids for the above pH adjustment are aliphatic and aromatic carboxylic acids and/or sulfonic acids. Specific examples are formic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, oxalic acid, succinic acid, glutaric acid, citric acid, benzoic acid, phthalic acid, salicylic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, toluenesulfonic acid, naphthalenesulfonic acid, phenolsulfonic acid and mixtures of these. Further acids are mineral acids, eg. hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, sulfurous acid or mixtures of these. Mixtures of both the first- and second-listed can, of course, be used.
Since the condensations in stages 1and 2are specific reactions, the process can also be carried out by initially preparing a mixture of the cyanomethylene compound (II) and of the barbituric acid, both components being used in an amount equimolar to the 1-amino-3-iminoisoindoline employed and then carrying out the condensation of stage 1, followed by the condensation of stage 2, in the manner described above.
Using this embodiment of the process, which is advantageous if the process is carried out industrially, the product is obtained in the same advantageous pigmentary form as when the reactants are added immediately prior to carrying out the reaction stage in which they are required.
The condensation can be carried out in the presence or absence of a surfactant. Since pigmentary forms of high tinctorial strength, which are particularly easily dispersible, are obtained in the latter case, the condensation is preferably carried out in the presence of a surfactant. The latter can be added either when carrying out the condensation of stage 1, or before or after the condensation of stage 2. The amount of the surfactant or surfactants employed is not critical above a certain minimum amount, and can therefore be varied within wide limits. The lower limit is about 5% by weight, based on BH.sub.2. Advantageously, the amount used is from 5 to 400 percent by weight, preferably from 10 to 100 percent by weight, based on the amount of BH.sub.2 employed.
The surfactant may, for example, be one of the nonionic, anionic and cationic compounds (conventionally used as dispersants or wetting agents) or protective colloids and mentioned below: anionic surfactants: C.sub.4 -C.sub.20 -alkylbenzenesulfonic acids, C.sub.4 -C.sub.20 -alkylphenolsulfonic acids, mono- and bis-C.sub.1 -C.sub.10 -alkylnaphthalenesulfonic acids, partially sulfonated polystyrene, water-soluble condensation products of .beta.-naphthalenesulfonic acid or C.sub.1 -C.sub.10 -alkylnaphthalene-.beta.-sulfonic acids and formaldehyde, condensation products of phenolsulfonic acids, formaldehyde and urea, condensation products of phenol, urea and formaldehyde, condensation products of phenol, formaldehyde, urea and sodium sulfite, phenol-formaldehyde condensation products which have been postcondensed with phenolsulfonic acid, urea and formaldehyde, ligninsulfonates, long-chain fatty acids (of 12 to 20 carbon atoms) and resin acids, in the form of the alkali metal salts, alkaline earth metal salts or ammonium salts, or mixtures of these surfactants; nonionic surfactants: adducts of ethylene oxide, or of propylene oxide, or of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide, with alkanols, alkanediols, alkanepolyols, where the alkane radical is of 2 to 20 carbon atoms, phenols, carboxylic acids, carboxylic acid amides and aliphatic cycloaliphatic and aromatic monoamines, diamines and polyamines.
Further surfactants are water-swellable or water-soluble polymers, eg. polymers of vinylpyridine or N-vinylpyrrolidone, and copolymers of water-soluble monomers, eg. N-vinylpyrrolidine, acrylamide and/or acrylic acid, with water-insoluble monomers, eg. acrylonitrile, methacrylic acid esters, acrylic acid esters, vinyl acetate, vinyl chloride and/or styrene, and also polyvinyl alcohol, C.sub.10 -C.sub.20 -fatty alcohols and condensation products of isobutyraldehyde, formaldehyde and urea. Mixtures of surfactants can also be used.
Preferred surfactants are C.sub.1 -C.sub.5 -alkylnaphthalenesulfonic acids, C.sub.10 -C.sub.20 -fatty alcohols, condensation products of phenol, urea and formaldehyde, adducts of ethylene oxide, or of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide, with C.sub.2 -C.sub.20 -alkanols, C.sub.2 -C.sub.20 -alkanediols, C.sub.3 -C.sub.10 -alkanetriols, aliphatic C.sub.10 -C.sub.20 -carboxylic acids and C.sub.10 -C.sub.20 -carboxylic acid amides, and condensation products of isobutyraldehyde, formaldehyde and urea, as well as mixtures of these products.
By a suitable choice of the conditions for the reaction of the monocondensation product of the formula III, where A is --CONH.sub.2, with a barbituric acid, the reaction can be controlled so that either a reddish transparent or high-hiding pigmentary form, or a greenish transparent or high-hiding pigmentary form is obtained. The latter is distinguished by particularly good lightfastness and fastness to weathering.
The reddish transparent pigmentary form is obtained if the condensation of stage 2 is carried out at pH 2.5-3.5 and at from 60.degree. to 90.degree. C.
The greenish transparent pigmentary form is obtained if the condensation of stage 2 is carried out at pH 1.5-2.5 and at from 60.degree. to 90.degree. C.
High-hiding reddish or greenish pigmentary forms with substantially better lightfastness and fastness to weathering than the colorant of German Laid-Open Application DOS 1,670,748 are obtained if the condensation of stage 2 is carried out under the above conditions and, in order to complete the condensation, or after completion of the condensation, the reaction mixture is heated at 110.degree.-140.degree. C. under pressure.
