Possible quaternising agents are alkyl halides, halogenoacetamides, .beta.-halogenopropionitriles, halogenohydrins, alkylene oxides, alkyl esters of sulphuric acid or alkyl esters of organic sulphonic acid, for example methyl chloride, bromide or iodide, ethyl chloride, bromide or iodide, propyl bromide or iodide, benzyl chloride or bromide, chloroacetamide, .beta.-chloropropionitrile, ethylene chlorohydrin, dimethyl sulphate, diethyl sulphate, benzenesulphonic acid methyl ester, p-toluenesulphonic acid methyl, ethyl apropyl or butyl ester, allyl chloride or bromide, methallyl chloride or bromide, trimethyloxonium borofluoride, propargyl chloride, 1,4-dichloroprop-2-ene, 1-chloro-but-2-ene, 1-chloro-but-3-ine, 1,2-dichloro-prop-2-ene, 1-chloro-2-vinyl-prop-2-ene, 1-chloro-penta-2,4-diene and acrylonitrile, acrylic acid, acrylic acid amide and acrylic acid methyl ester.

The diazotisation of the 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles, of the formula V is carried out in a manner which is in itself known, for example with nitrosylsulphuric acid in 85% strength phosphoric acid or in mixtures of 85% strength phosphoric acid and acetic acid. The coupling of the diazotised 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles with the coupling components VI is likewise carried out in a manner which is in itself known, for example in an acid aqueous or aqueous-organic medium.

The quaternisation is appropriately carried out in an inert organic solvent, for example in a hydrocarbon, chlorohydrocarbon or nitrohydrocarbon, such as benzene, toluene, xylene, tetrachloroethane, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, monochlorobenzene or dichlorobenzene or nitrobenzene, in an acid amide or acid anhydride, such as dimethylformamide, N-methylacetamide or acetic anhydride, in dimethylsulphoxide or in a ketone, such as acetone or methyl ethyl ketone. Instead of an organic solvent, it is also possible to use an excess of the alkylating agent. The quaternisation is carried out at elevated temperature, acid-binding agents, such as magnesium oxide, magnesium carbonate, sodium carbonate, calcium carbonate or sodium bicarbonate being added if appropriate, and if appropriate under pressure. The most favourable conditions in each case can easily be determined by a preliminary experiment.

The quaternised dyestuffs formed are sparingly soluble in the solvents used and can be isolated by filtration. If the quaternised dyestuffs remain partly or completely in solution when dimethylformamide, dimethylsulphoxide or acetonitrile is used, they can be separated out by diluting the solution with water and adding water-soluble salts, for example sodium chloride or potassium chloride.

The dyestuffs obtained by this process are outstandingly suitable for dyeing and printing fibres, which can be dyed with cationic dyestuffs, of polymers and copolymers of acrylonitrile and of dicyanoethylene, and acid-modified fibres of polyamide and polyester, fast colour shades being obtained. The dyestuffs can also be used for dyeing and printing tannin-treated cellulose materials, silk and leather. They are furthermore suitable for the preparation of writing fluids, products for use with rubber stamps and ball-point pen pastes and can also be used in flexographic printing.

Materials which are particularly suitable for dyeing with the basic dyestuffs of the general formula (I) are flocks, fibres, filaments, silvers, woven fabrics or knitted fabrics consisting of polyacrylonitrile or of copolymers of acrylonitrile, containing an acrylonitrile proportion of at least 85%, with other vinyl compounds, such as vinyl chloride, vinylidene chloride, vinyl fluoride, vinyl acetate, vinylpyridine, vinylimidazole, vinyl alcohol, acrylic acid esters and amides and methacrylic acid esters, and amides, and asymmetric dicyanoethylene. Flocks, fibres, filaments, slivers, woven fabrics or knitted fabrics consisting of acid-modified synthetic materials, in particular of acid-modified aromatic polyesters and acid-modified polyamide fibres, can likewise be excellently dyed. Examples of acid-modified aromatic polyesters are polycondensation products of sulphoterephthalic acid and ethylene glycol, that is to say polyethylene glycol terephthalates containing sulphonic acid groups (of the Dacron 64 type from Messrs. E. I. DuPont de Nemours and Company), such as are described in Belgian Patent Specification No. 549,179 and U.S. Pat. No. 2,893,816.

The dyeing can take place from a weakly acid liquor, the material appropriately being introduced into the dyebath at 40.degree. to 60.degree. C. and dyeing then being carried out at the boiling point. However, it is also possible to carry out the dyeing under pressure at temperatures above 100.degree. C. Furthermore, the dyestuffs can be added to spinning solutions for the preparation of fibres containing polyacrylonitrile or can be applied to the non-stretched fibres.

The dyeings of the dyestuffs of the formula (I) according to the invention on materials consisting of polyacrylonitrile or acid-modified polyester fibres or polyamide fibres are distinguished by very good fastness to light, wet processing, rubbing and sublimation and by a high affinity for the fibre.

They are also distinguished by a relatively good migrating capacity and a low sensitivity to thiocyanate.

The dyestuffs can be used individually or in mixtures. They are very suitable for dyeing shaped articles made of polymers or copolymers of acrylonitrile, asymmetric dicyanoethylene, acid-modified aromatic polyesters or acid-modified synthetic high molecular weight polyamides in chlorohydrocarbons, as the dyebath, when they carry substituents which promote solubility in chlorohydrocarbons, such as, for example, the tert.-butyl group, or when the anion An.sup.(-) in the formula (I) is the anion of a monobasic organic acid with 4-30 carbon atoms.

Examples of such organic acids are: 2-ethylcaproic acid, lauric acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid, a mixture of aliphatic carboxylic acids with 15-19 carbon atoms (Versatic Acid 1519), a mixture of aliphatic carboxylic acids with 9-11 carbon atoms (Versatic Acid 911), coconut fatty acid first runnings, tetradecanoic acid, undecylenic acid, dimethylpropanoic acid, dimethylacetic acid, carboxylic acids, the carbon chain of which is interrupted by heteroatoms, such as nonylphenol-tetraethylene glycol ether-propionic acid, dodecyl-tetraethylene glycol ether-propionic acid, 3-(nonyloxy)-propionic acid, 3-(isotridecyloxy)-propionic acid, the ether-propionic acid of the alcohol mixture with 6-10 carbon atoms, nonylphenoxyacetic acid, aromatic carboxylic acids, such as tert.-butylbenzoic acid, cycloaliphatic carboxylic acids, such as hexahydrobenzoic acid, cyclohexenecarboxylic acid and abietic acid, and sulphonic acids, such as tetrapropylenebenzenesulphonic acid.

In the examples which follow, parts denote parts by weight.

EXAMPLE 1

10.5 parts of 2-amino-5-dimethylamino-1,3,4-thiadiazole are introduced into a mixture of 100 parts of 85% strength phosphoric acid and 30 parts of glacial acetic acid, the mixture is stirred at room temperature for 1/2 hour and 25 parts of nitrosylsulphuric acid are added dropwise at -5.degree.. The mixture is subsequently stirred at 0.degree. for 1 hour and the diazonium solution thus obtained is then allowed to run into a solution of 10.5 parts of N,N-dimethylaniline and 1 part of amidosulphonic acid in 130 parts of 10% strength hydrochloric acid at 0.degree. and the mixture is buffered at pH 3 with sodium acetate solution. The dyestuff immediately couples completely. After filtering off and drying, 20 parts of the dyestuff of the formula ##STR18## are obtained.

4.5 parts of this dyestuff are dissolved in 50 parts of glacial acetic acid containing 2 parts of magnesium oxide. 6 parts of dimethylsulphate are added and the solution is stirred at 60.degree.-70.degree. for 2 hours. After cooling, the reaction mixture is added to 200 parts of water, 1 part of Celite 545 is added and the aqueous acid solution is filtered through Celite 545. The dyestuff is isolated as the tetrachlorozincate in the customary manner, by adding salt up to a concentration of 20% and then adding zinc chloride. The tetrachlorozincate of the dyestuff has the structure: ##STR19##

It dyes textile materials made of polyacrylonitrile and other textile materials which can be dyed with cationic dyestuffs in blue shades with outstanding fastness to light and wet processing, coupled with excellent affinity and good depth of colour as well as a relatively good migrating capacity.

If the procedure followed is as described in Example 1 and the diazo components and coupling components listed in the table which follows and the quaternising agents mentioned there are used, similar dyestuffs which dye polyacrylonitrile in the colour shades indicated, with similar fastness properties, are obtained.

EXAMPLE 269

6 parts of dimethyl sulphate are added in portions to 5 parts of dyestuff bases, prepared as in Example 1, of the formula ##STR546## in 100 parts of chlorobenzene at 100.degree.-110.degree. C. The mixture is then heated to the boiling point for 30 minutes. After cooling, the dyestuff is filtered off, washed with benzene and dried. 5.8 parts of a powder of the formula ##STR547## which readily dissolves in water to give a blue-coloured solution and dyes textile materials made of polyacrylonitrile in blue shades with very good fastness to light and wet processing, are obtained.

The dyestuffs described in Examples 2 to 248 can be obtained as the methosulphates in an analogous manner.

EXAMPLE 270

Dyeing process for polyacrylonitrile and acid-modified polyamide fibres (of the Dye I type):

0.1 part of the dyestuff prepared according to Example 1 is made into a paste with about 2 parts of water, a little acetic acid being added if necessary, and the paste is dissolved in 50 parts of hot water. 0.5-2 g of a condensation product of naphthalenesulphonic acid and formaldehyde are also added to the dye liquor and the liquor is made up to 500 parts with cold water. The pH value of the dye liquor is adjusted to 4.5-5 with acetic acid or sodium acetate. 10 g of piece goods of polyacrylonitrile fibres or acid-modified polyamide fibres are kept in continuous motion in this dye liquor, whilst the temperature is increased to 100.degree. C. in the course of 30 minutes. Dyeing is carried out at the boiling point for 60 minutes and the material is rinsed with cold water and then dried at 60.degree.-70.degree. C. For dyeing acid-modified polyglycol terephthalate fibres (of the Dacron 64 type), a carrier, for example 1-3 parts of an aromatic hydroxycarboxylic acid ester or diphenyl, is also added to the dye liquor.

Printing process:

A woven polyacrylonitrile fabric is printed with a printing paste which has been prepared in the following manner: 330 parts by weight of hot water are poured over 30 parts by weight of the dyestuff of the formula in Example 1, 50 parts by weight of diethylene thioglycol, 30 parts by weight of cyclohexanol and 30 parts by weight of 30% strength acetic acid and the resulting solution is added to 500 parts by weight of crystal gum (gum arabic as a thickener). Finally, 30 parts by weight of zinc nitrate solution are also added. The resulting print is dried, steamed for 30 minutes and then rinsed. A blue print of very good fastness properties is obtained.

PREPARATION EXAMPLES FOR COMPOUNDS OF THE FORMULA (VII)

Example a

36 parts of 2-amino-5-bromo-1,3,4-thiadiazole are made into a slurry with 100 parts of ethanol, and 75 parts of 50% strength dimethylamine solution are added. The reaction mixture is stirred at the boiling point for 2 hours. After cooling, the almost colourless crystals are filtered off, washed with cold water and dried at 50.degree. C. in vacuo.

Melting point: 225.degree.-226.degree.

Example b

36 parts of 2-amino-5-bromo-1,3,4-thiadiazole are suspended in 200 parts of ethanol, and 45 parts of dipropylamine are added. The reaction mixture is boiled under reflux for 2 hours and then concentrated to dryness. The residue is made into a slurry with 250 ml of water and the resulting crystal sludge is filtered. The 5-dipropylamino-2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole thus prepared can be recrystallised from ethanol/water.

Melting point: 152.degree.-153.degree.

The same product is obtained if, instead of 2-amino-5-bromo-1,3,4-thiadiazole, the following compounds are employed: 2-amino-5-chloro-1,3,4-thiadiazole, 2-amino-5-methylsulphonyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole and 2-amino-5-ethylsulphonyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole.

Example c

28 parts of dibutylamine and 25 parts of triethylamine are added to 27 parts of 2-amino-5-chloro-1,3,4-thiadiazole in 200 parts of ethanol. The reaction mixture is heated under reflux for 2 hours and then concentrated to dryness. The residue is suspended in 250 ml of water and filtered. The 2-amino-5-dibutylamino-1,3,4-thiadiazole obtained in this manner can be recrystallised from ethanol/water.

Melting point: 116.degree.-117.degree.

The same product is obtained if, instead of 2-amino-5-chloro-1,3,4-thiadiazole, the following compounds are employed: 2-amino-5-bromo-1,3,4-thiadiazole, 2-amino-5-methylsulphonyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole and 2-amino-5-ethylsulphonyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole.

Instead of 25 parts of triethylamine, equivalent amounts of pyridine, pyrimidine and other tertiary nitrogen bases customary in organic chemistry can be employed with the same result.

Example d

39 parts of 2-amino-5-ethylsulphonyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole in 200 parts of dimethylformamide are warmed to 100.degree. with 23 parts of N-methylcyclohexylamine and 20 parts of pyridine for 2 hours. Thereafter, the reaction mixture is concentrated to dryness and the residue is suspended in 250 ml of water and filtered off. 2-Amino-5-(N-methyl-N-cyclohexyl)amine can be recrystallized from ethanol/water.

Melting point: 168.degree.-169.degree.

Example e

36 parts of 2-amino-5-methylsulphonyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole in 100 parts of diisopropylamine are heated under reflux for 30 minutes. Excess diisopropylamine is distilled off and the residue is extracted with water. The 2-amino-5-diisopropylamino-1,3,4-thiadiazole which remains can be recrystallised from alcohol/water.

Melting point: 182.degree.-183.degree.

The following compounds can be prepared by processes analogous to those described in Examples a-e: 2-amino-5-diethylamino-1,3,4-thiadiazole, 2-amino-5-(N-methyl-N-ethyl)-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole, 2-amino-5-diisobutylamino-1,3,4-thiadiazole, 2-amino-5-(N-ethyl-N-butyl)-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole, 2-amino-5-(N-ethyl-N-propyl)-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole, 2-amino-5-di(2-ethylhexyl)-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole, 2-amino-5-(N-methyl-N-octadecyl)-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole, 2-amino-5-dibenzylamino-1,3,4-thiadiazole, 2-amino-5-(N-methyl-N-benzyl)-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole, 2-amino-5-diallylamino-1,3,4-thiadiazole, 2-amino-5-(1-methylhydrazino)-1,3,4-thiadiazole, 2-amino-5-(N-methyl-N-cyanoethyl)-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole, 2-amino-5-di(2-cyanoethyl)-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole, 2-amino-5-dimethallylamino-1,3,4-thiadiazole, 2-amino-5-piperidino-1,3,4-thiadiazole, 2-amino-5-pyrrolidino-1,3,4-thiadiazole, 2-amino-5-morpholino-1,3,4-thiadiazole and 2-amino-5-(N'-methyl)-piperazino-1,3,4-thiadiazole.
