[0172] The dyestuffs of the present invention can be present as a preparation in solid or liquid (dissolved) form. In solid form they generally contain the electrolyte salts customary in the case of water-soluble and in particular fibre-reactive dyes, such as sodium chloride, potassium chloride and sodium sulfate, and also the auxiliaries customary in commercial dyes, such as buffer substances capable of establishing a pH in aqueous solution between 3 and 7, such as sodium acetate, sodium borate, sodium bicarbonate, sodium citrate, sodium dihydrogen-phosphate and disodium hydrogenphosphate, small amounts of siccatives or, if they are present in liquid, aqueous solution (including the presence of thickeners of the type customary in print pastes), substances which ensure the permanence of these preparations, for example mold preventatives.


[0173] In general, the dyestuffs of the present invention are present as dye powders containing 10 to 80% by weight, based on the dye powder or preparation, of a strength-standardizing colorless diluent electrolyte salt, such as those mentioned above. These dye powders may additionally include the aforementioned buffer substances in a total amount of up to 10%, based on the dye powder.

34


[0177] wherein R1, X1 and D1 are defined as given above and X4 has one of the meanings of X3.


[0178] It is possible to react a compound of formula XXIII first with a compound of the formula XXIV to form a compound of the formula XXVI
35


[0179] wherein all variables are defined as given above,


[0180] which is then reacted with a compound of the formula XXV to a dyestuff of the formula I.


[0181] As an alternative is it also possible to react a compound of the formula XXIII first with a compound of the formula XXV to form the compound of the formula XXVII
36


[0182] wherein all variables are defined as given above,


[0183] which is then reacted with a compound of the formula XXIV to a dyestuff of the formula I.


[0184] In general, one mole of a compound of the formula XXIII is reacted with 1 mole of a compound of the formula XXIV and 1 mole of a compound of the formula XXV in a manner known per se to a skilled person.


[0185] The compounds of the formulae XXIII, XXIV and XXV are known or can easily be prepared by a skilled person using methods which are known per se. As an example, a compound of the formula XXIV, wherein X2 is chlorine can be obtained by reacting cyanuric chloride with a compound of the formula XXVIII
37


[0186] wherein R2 and D2 are defined as given above.


[0187] The compounds of the formula XXVIII can be prepared by means of customary diazotization and coupling reactions in a manner familiar to those skilled in the art.


[0188] The dyestuffs of the instant invention are reactive dyestuffs suitable for dyeing and printing hydroxy- and/or carboxamido-containing fibre materials by the application and fixing methods numerously described in the art for fibre-reactive dyes. They provide exceptionally bright, exceptionally strong and economic shades. Such dyes especially when used for exhaust dyeing of cellulosic materials can exhibit excellent properties including build-up, aqueous solubility, light-fastness, wash off and robustness to process variables. They are also wholly compatible with similar dyes designed for high temperature (80-100° C.) application to cellulosic textiles, and thus lead to highly reproducible application processes, with short application times.


[0189] The present invention therefore also provides for use of the inventive dyestuffs for dyeing and printing hydroxy- and/or carboxamido-containing fibre materials and processes for dyeing and printing such materials using a dyestuff according to the invention. Usually the dyestuff is applied to the substrate in dissolved form and fixed on the fibre by the action of an alkali or by heating or both.


[0190] Hydroxy-containing materials are natural or synthetic hydroxy-containing materials, for example cellulose fiber materials, including in the form of paper, or their regenerated products and polyvinyl alcohols. Cellulose fiber materials are preferably cotton but also other natural vegetable fibers, such as linen, hemp, jute and ramie fibres. Regenerated cellulose fibers are for example staple viscose and filament viscose.


[0191] Carboxamido-containing materials are for example synthetic and natural polyamides and polyurethanes, in particular in the form of fibers, for example wool and other animal hairs, silk, leather, nylon-6,6, nylon-6, nylon-11, and nylon-4.


[0192] Application of the inventive dyestuffs is by generally known processes for dyeing and printing fiber materials by the known application techniques for fibre-reactive dyes. The dyestuffs according to the invention are highly compatible with similar dyes designed for high temperature (80-100° C.) applications and are advantageously useful in exhaust dyeing processes.


[0193] Similarly, the conventional printing processes for cellulose fibers, which can either be carried out in single-phase, for example by printing with a print paste containing sodium bicarbonate or some other acid-binding agent and the colorant, and subsequent steaming at appropriate temperatures, or in two phases, for example by printing with a neutral or weakly acid print paste containing the colorant and subsequent fixation either by passing the printed material through a hot electrolyte-containing alkaline bath or by overpadding with an alkaline electrolyte-containing padding liquor and subsequent batching of this treated material or subsequent steaming or subsequent treatment with dry heat, produce strong prints with well defined contours and a clear white ground. Changing fixing conditions has only little effect on the outcome of the prints. Not only in dyeing but also in printing the degrees of fixation obtained with dye mixtures of the invention are very high. The hot air used in dry heat fixing by the customary thermofix processes has a temperature of from 120 to 200° C. In addition to the customary steam at from 101 to 103° C., it is also possible to use superheated steam and high pressure steam at up to 160° C.


[0194] The inventive dyestuffs can in addition be used to produce inks useful for printing the substrates described above, for example textiles, especially cellulosic textiles, and paper. Such inks can be used in all technologies, for example conventional printing, ink-jet printing or bubble-jet printing (for information on such printing technologies see for example Text. Chem. Color, Volume 19(8), pages 23 ff and Volume 21, pages 27 ff).


[0195] Acid-binding agents responsible for fixing the dyes to cellulose fibers are for example water-soluble basic salts of alkali metals and of alkaline earth metals of inorganic or organic acids, and compounds which release alkali when hot. Of particular suitability are the alkali metal hydroxides and alkali metal salts of weak to medium inorganic or organic acids, the preferred alkali metal compounds being the sodium and potassium compounds. These acid-binding agents are for example sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, potassium carbonate, sodium formate, sodium dihydrogen-phosphate and disodium hydrogenphosphate.


[0196] Treating the dyestuffs according to the invention with the acid-binding agents with or without heating bonds the dyes chemically to the cellulose fibers. Especially the dyeings on cellulose, after they have been given the usual aftertreatment of rinsing to remove unfixed dye portions, show excellent properties.


[0197] The dyeings of polyurethane and polyamide fibers are customarily carried out from an acid medium. The dyebath may contain for example acetic acid and/or ammonium sulfate and/or acetic acid and ammonium acetate or sodium acetate to bring it to the desired pH. To obtain a dyeing of acceptable levelness it is advisable to add customary leveling auxiliaries, for example based on a reaction product of cyanuric chloride with three times the molar amount of an aminobenzenesulfonic acid or aminonaphthalenesulfonic acid or based on a reaction product of for example stearylamine with ethylene oxide. In general the material to be dyed is introduced into the bath at a temperature of about 40° C. and agitated therein for some time, the dyebath is then adjusted to the desired weakly acid, preferably weakly acetic acid, pH, and the actual dyeing is carried out at temperature between 60 and 98° C. However, the dyeings can also be carried out at the boil or at temperatures up to 120° C. (under superatmospheric pressure).






EXAMPLE 1

[0198] 1-(2-aminoethyl) piperazine (2.6 g, 0.02 mol) was added dropwise to a stirred suspension of the orange dichlorotriazinyl dye (3) (0.02 mol) in water (400 mls) at ambient temperature and pH6. The pH was then adjusted to 10 with sodium carbonate solution and maintained at this pH for 20 minutes, yielding a solution of the orange dye (5). To this solution was added the orange dichlorotriazinyl dye (4) (0.02 mol) and the solution was maintained at pH 10 and ambient temperature for 48 hours. The pH was adjusted to 6 with 2N HCl and the dye precipitated by the addition of NaCl. The precipitated dye was filtered off, salt removed by dialysis and dried to give the expected dye (1) (16.0 g). (λmax=491 nm, ε=65500, ν1/2=115 nm). Other analytical data were in full agreement with the expected structure.

The pH was then adjusted to 10 with sodium carbonate solution and maintained at this pH for 20 minutes, yielding the red dye (12). To this solution was added the yellow dichlorotriazinyl dye (13) (0.0077 mol) and the solution was maintained at pH 10 and ambient temperature for 24 hours. The pH was adjusted to 6 with 2N HCl and the dye precipitated by the addition of methylated spirits. The precipitated dye was filtered off, and dried to give the expected dye (10) (10.6 g). (λmax=516 nm, ε=46000, ν1/2=115 nm). Other analytical data were in full agreement with the expected structure.
