Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a new metal complex dye used mainly for leather dyeing, a method of its production and a metal-tanned leather dyeing method using said metal complex dye. 2. Description of the Prior Art
The majority of dyes used for leather dyeing are anionic dyes having a water-soluble group, such as acid dyes, direct dyes, metal complex dyes and mordant dyes. For dyeing chromium-tanned leather and other highly cationic leather, dyes having a sulfo group have conventionally been used in almost all cases.
For example, Japanese Patent Publication Open to Public Inspection Nos. 40357/1983, 59871/1981, 171776/1982, 171778/1982 and 259685/1985 propose metal complex dyes with the aim of improving various properties including color fastness to rubbing, color fastness to water, color fastness to washing, color fastness to light, dyeing property, leveling property and permeability. These dyes all have a sulfo group or a carboxyl group as a water-soluble group.
However, the dyes and dyeing methods which have conventionally been used to dye leather, particularly metal-tanned leather, are not fully satisfactory with respect to dyeing power, color fastness to rubbing and permeability.
The present invention was developed in consideration of these aspects. The object of the invention is to provide a metal complex dye that offers good permeability and excellent color fastness to rubbing and color fastness to light particularly in metal-tanned leather dyeing, a method of its production and a metal-tanned leather dyeing method.

R.sup.1 represents a hydrogen atom or an amino group; X represents a hydroxyl group, an alkoxy group having a carbon number of 1 or 2 or a carboxyl group. Y represents a hydroxyl group, an alkoxy group having a carbon number of 1 or 2, a carboxyl group or a methyl group; R.sup.2 represents a hydrogen atom or a hydroxyl group; A represents a phenyl group or naphthyl group selected from the group comprising the following 1 through 4: ##STR4## In the above formulas 1 through 4, Sf has the same definition as above; n is 0, 1, or 2.

In the production method described above, when the substituent X or Y in the azo compound is an alkoxy group having a carbon number of 1 or 2, it is preferable to carry out metalization in an organic solvent.
The new metal complex dye having a phosphono group thus obtained can be used for dyeing by a processing method similar to that for conventional acid dyes at a temperature of about 50.degree. C. and pH 3 to 6 as needed for leather dyeing.
An ordinary dyeing process can be used for the process of dyeing metal-tanned leather.
The types of metal tanning of leather to be dyed include aluminum tanning, titanium tanning and zirconium tanning as well as chromium tanning.
An example of the dyeing process is given below.
Chrome-tanned leather shaven to a given thickness is subjected to washing and neutralization for pretreatment processes, and then dyed. Formic acid is added for fixation, followed by stuffing and neutralization.
The washing process for pretreatment is carried out to remove the unbound portion of the tanning agent from the leather, remove the unbound portion of the acid from the leather, remove the foreign matter adhering to the leather, defiber the leather texture and for other purposes, and can be achieved by running water technique using a drum.
The neutralization process for pretreatment is carried out to neutralize the collagen that cannot be removed from the leather by washing alone and the acid bound to the chromium complex to uniformize the penetration of the dye and stuffing agent, and can be achieved by neutralization treatment at pH 5 to 6 for 30 minutes to 2 hours using a neutralizing agent such as an alkaline or weakly alkaline base.
Examples of neutralizing agents include sodium bicarbonate, sodium acetate and sodium formate.
Dyeing is carried out by drum dyeing, paddle dyeing, etc. using a dye for the method of the present invention to obtain the desired color. Drum dyeing can be carried out by treatment with a dye solution being added while rotating the drum at pH 4.5 to 6.0 for a given period using water (50.degree. to 60.degree. C.) in a ratio of 190 to 300% to the shaving weight.
Stuffing can be carried out by adding a stuffing agent to a fresh bath after dyeing. Examples of usable stuffing agents include nonionic, anionic and cationic stuffing agents as well as raw oils and synthetic oils and fats.
This method is applicable to leather subjected to secondary tannin tanning after chromium tanning and leather subjected to secondary chromium tanning after tannin tanning, as well as leather tanned with chromium alone such as wet blue. It does not matter of what type the leather is, such as cow skin, pig skin, horse skin, sheep skin, goat skin, etc., as long as it has been subjected to chromium tanning. This method is also applicable to aluminum tanned leather, titanium-tanned leather and zirconium-tanned leather.
The mechanism of the action of the metal complex dye of the present invention on metal-tanned leather dyeing remains unclarified, but it is speculated that the dye of the present invention offers excellent color fastness to rubbing and good permeability in comparison with conventional dyes containing a sulfo group or a carboxyl group because the phosphono group contained in the dye of the present invention bounds to a metal such as chromium ion in metal-tanned leather by coordinate bond or reaction, and in addition, color fastness to light improves because a metal complex structure stable to light is formed due to metalization.
The metal complex dye of the present invention shows good permeability to metal-tanned leather, and metal-tanned leather dyed with the metal complex of the present invention offers excellent color fastness to rubbing in comparison with acid dyes and other dyes having no phosphono group and excellent color fastness to light in comparison with dyes having a phosphono group.
The present invention is hereinafter described in more detail by means of the following examples, but the invention is not by any means limited by them, as long as the gist of the invention is not overstepped.

Chromium-Tanned Leather Dyeing With Metal Complex Dyes of the Present Invention
(Dye Examples 1 Through 30
For pretreatment, wet blue (chromium-tanned cow skin, leather of 1 mm in thickness for clothing) was washed with running water, after which it was subjected to neutralization treatment with an aqueous solution of sodium bicarbonate at pH 5 to 6 while maintaining a temperature between 30.degree. and 40.degree. C. Then, the wet blue was subjected to drum dyeing at 60.degree. C. for 30 minutes using a dye listed in Table 1 in a ratio of 2% to the weight of the above-mentioned wet blue and 190% of water. Note that when the water-soluble group of the dye was in the form of a free acid, the dye was previously dissolved in aqueous ammonia and used as a dye solution. After dyeing, formic acid was added for fixation. Further, water in a ratio of 250% to the weight of the wet blue was added, and the temperature was increased to 60.degree. C. Then, 1.4% neutral oil (leather stuffening oil, produced by Yoshikawa Seiyu Co.) and 5.6% synthetic oil (MMP, produced by Orient Chemical Industries, Ltd.) as stuffening agents were added, followed by treatment for 60 minutes. Finally, formic acid was added for neutralization to Yield a dyed leather.
The color fastness to rubbing and permeability of the leathers thus obtained are shown in Table 2. The leathers all showed a good leveling property. The color fastness to light was determined by applying each sample to a fademeter (carbon arc type) and making comparisons with the ordinary status using a blue scale (JIS L0841). The duration of fademeter application was 80 hours in Examples 31 through 43 and 40 hours in Examples 44 through 60. The data on color fastness to rubbing shown in the table were obtained in a wet rubbing test using a resonance type rubbing tester in accordance with the standard rubbing test procedure (JIS L0849). Permeability was rated by observation of a cross section of each dyed leather.
To examine for phosphono group and differences in the effects of metalization, comparison experiments were performed as follows:
