Where the same symbol appears more than once in any formula, unless indicated to the contrary it may signify the same or a different group. Preferably the compounds of formula I are symmetric.
The compounds of formula I may be prepared by condensing a compound of formula II ##STR28## where K.sub.a NR.sub.12 -- is K.sub.2 as defined in above with another compound of formula II which may be the same or different and a Y-bridge yielding compound. The condensation may be carried out by conventional methods. Preferred Y-bridge yielding compounds are acid halides, in particular acid dichlorides such as phosgene, the dichlorides of fumaric acid, oxalic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid and higher homologues, terephthalic acid or isophthalic acid or cyanuric halides and derivatives thereof.
The resulting compounds of formula I can be isolated from the reaction mixture by known methods.
The basic group-containing compounds of formula I can be converted into water-soluble salt form by adding a stoichiometric amount of an inorganic acid such as hydrochloric acid, sulphuric acid and phosphoric acid or preferably an organic acid, for example formic acid, acetic acid, lactic acid, citric acid, glycollic acid and methane sulphonic acid.
In the compounds of formula I a portion of the compound in free base form (i.e. a non-protonated X group) can be converted into a quaternary ammonium carrying cationic group by treating with an alkylating agent containing R.sub.7 groups.
The compounds of formula II can be prepared according to known methods, for example by coupling the requisite diazo component with the required coupling component and introducing the Z group either before or after coupling.
Compounds of formula I in the form of their water-soluble acid salts and quaternary ammonium salts are dyestuffs useful for dyeing or printing substrates consisting of or containing cellulosic fibres, for example cotton, or, preferably, for the dyeing or printing of paper. They may also be used for dyeing or printing leather, particularly vegetable-tanned low-affinity leather. Cotton may for example be dyed by an exhaust dyeing process at room temperature to the boil or printed with printing pastes of conventional type. Printing may be carried out for instance by the use of a printing paste or impregnation. The compounds of formula I (in water-soluble acid addition salt or quaternary ammonium salt form) are useful for dyeing paper, for example in the production of a dyed sized or unsized web and for printing paper according to conventional methods. The compounds of formula I (in water-soluble acid addition salt or quaternary ammonium salt form) may be used for dyeing or printing leather, in particular low affinity leather, which has been vegetable tanned according to known methods.
The dyeings and printings (particular on paper) produced by dyes according to the invention have good fastness properties.
Compounds of formula I may also be used in the form of liquid or solid dye compositions. They may be produced in the form of stable liquid, preferably aqueous, compositions by known methods, preferably by solution in a suitable solvent, optionally in the presence of an auxiliary, for example a stabiliser. Such compositions may for example be prepared as disclosed in French Pat. No. 1,572,030. The suitable liquid composition is for example the following (parts are by weight):
100 parts compound of formula I as acid addition salt
1-100, preferably 1-10, parts inorganic salt
1-100 parts of an organic acid, e.g. formic, acetic, lactic or citric acid
100-800 parts water
0-500 parts of a solubilising agent, for example glycols such as diethylene, triethylene or hexylene glycol; glycol ethers such as Methyl Cellosolve.RTM., Methyl Carbitol.RTM., butylpolyglycol; urea; formamide; dimethylformamide, etc.
The compounds of formula I may also be prepared in solid, preferably granular, form, preferably by granulating as described in French Pat. No. 1,581,900. A suitable solid composition is for example the following (parts are by weight):
100 parts compound of formula I as acid addition salt
1-100, preferably 1-10, parts inorganic salt
0-800 parts of a filler, preferably a nonionic material such as dextrin, sugar, glucose or urea.
The solid compositions may contain up to 10% residual moisture.
The dyestuffs of formula I, in the form of their acid addition salts, have good solubility properties, particularly good solubility in cold water. When used in paper-making, they colour the waste water only slightly or not at all which is desirable for ecological reasons. They do not give mottling of the dyed paper, and are insensitive to pH over wide ranges. The resulting dyeings on paper are brilliant and are characterised by good light-fastness; after long illumination the shades change tone-in-tone. The dyed paper is fast not only to water but also to milk, fruit juices and sweetened mineral water; because of the good alcohol fastness of the dyes they are also resistant to alcoholic drinks.
The dyes exhibit high substantivity, that is they exhaust practically quantitatively on the substrate. They may be added to the paper mass directly in the form of a dry powder or granulate, without first making up a solution, without loss of brilliance or yield. There is practically no difference in the take up between sized and unsized paper. The dyes according to the invention may also be used in soft water without loss of yield.
Fibrous materials containing wood pulp are dyed with the dyestuffs according to the invention in good and level quality.
The dyed paper is both oxidatively and reductively bleachable, which is important for the recycling of waste paper.
The following Examples, in which solid materials are given as parts by weight and liquids as parts by volume, all percentages are weight percentages and temperatures are in degrees Centigrade, illustrate the invention.
Example 1
(A) 44.2 Parts of N-(3'-dimethylaminopropyl)-4-aminobenzamide is dissolved in 200 parts of water and 70 parts of 30% HCl solution and then diazotised with 55 parts of 4N sodium nitrite solution of 0.degree.-5.degree.. After one hour the excess nitrite is destroyed with aminosulphonic acid.
28 Parts of 2-amino-1-methoxy-4-methylbenzene is added to the above solution and the pH is brought to 4 by the addition of sodium acetate. Coupling immediately occurs producing a yellow dyestuff.
After one hour the solution is saturated with sodium chloride, whereby after a long period of stirring the dyestuff precipitates in crystalline form. The dyestuff is vacuum filtered and the solid mass is washed and dried. The dyestuff produced at this stage is of the formula ##STR29##
(B) 17.6 Parts of the above compound in powder form are dissolved in 300 parts of water and warmed to 40.degree.. A stream of phosgene is introduced into the solution and the pH of the solution is kept at 5.5 to 6 by the dropwise addition of a 12% solution of NaOH. After about 1 hour thin layer chromatography shows that there is no aminoazo dyestuff left. Phosgenisation is then terminated and a compound of the formula ##STR30## is precipitated with caustic soda solution, vacuum filtered and then dried to give a yellow powder.
The product, in acid addition salt form (for example as an acetic acid addition salt) dyes paper a glowing acid-yellow colour and the paper dyeings so produced have good wet and alcohol fastness properties and outstanding light fastness properties.
(C) Instead of using phosgene in the method of Example 1 acid dihalides may be used. In particular, the dichloride of fumaric, succinic or terephthalic acid or a cyanuric halide in which one of the halogen atoms may be replaced by an organic group (for example a group derived from an amine or alcohol). The dyestuffs so produced are of the same general formula as the product of Example 1 except that the bridging group >CO is replaced by a different bridging group. The chromophoric part of the dyestuff which is the same as that of Example 1 causes these dyestuffs (when in salt form) to dye paper a gold-yellow colour. The dyeings so produced have good wet and alcohol fastness properties and good light fastness properties.
In the product of Example 1 (B) the diazo component may be exchanged for one of a variety of other diazo components carrying a basic group. Such diazo components may be prepared by known methods.
