Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to novel red reactive dyestuffs.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Reactive dyestuff generally indicates that dye molecule contains a reactive functional group that can react with fiber. It can react to the hydroxyl group of cellulose fiber or the amide, imino and carboxylic acid group in animal and polyamide synthetic fibers. Thus, with the covalent bonding between the dyestuff and fiber, the purpose of dying is achieved.

Red (or yellowish red) reactive dyestuffs are already known from U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,075,428, 5,354,849, and 5,359,042.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to novel red reactive dyestuffs of the formula (I) ##STR2## wherein: X is halogen;

U is --NH--Y--Z or ##STR3## V is --Y'--Z', wherein each of Y and Y' independently is phenyl, phenyl sulfonic acid, naphthyl, or naphthyl sulfonic acid; each of Z and Z' independently is reactive functional group of --NH--CO--CHBr--CH.sub.2 Br, --NH--CO--CBr.dbd.CH.sub.2, --SO.sub.2 --CH.dbd.CH.sub.2 or --SO.sub.2 CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 --OSO.sub.3 H, and at least one of Z and Z' is --NH--CO--CHBr--CH.sub.2 Br, or --NH--CO--CBr.dbd.CH.sub.2.

The dyestuff of formula (I) of the present invention is suitable for dyeing and printing on cellulose fiber such as cotton, artificial cotton, linen and artificial linen, etc., and polyamide and polyurethane fibers like wool, silk and nylon, etc. It is also suitable for dying and printing on mixed or cross-linking spinning of cellulose fiber or polyamide fiber and polyurethane fiber, polyacrylonitrile fiber and other fiber. The dyed material shows a color superior in various fastness properties.

The dyestuff of formula (I) of the present invention contains several reactive functional groups. Dyeing on cellulose fiber brings out the special quality of high absorption, high build-up and high fastness property. Due to the storing stability of this dyestuff and the highly stable covalent bonding between fibers, a firmly dyed material can be achieved. Its high usage ratio means lower cost, and decreases or completely eliminates the environmental problem caused by waste water.

The dyestuff of the present invention is a multi-functional reactive dyestuff that contains various reactive groups. Dyeing on cellulose fiber brings out the special quality of high absorption, high build-up and better fastness property and this type of dyestuff has the characteristic of high storing stability and highly stable covalent bonding between dyestuff and fibers. The highly reproducible dyeing can be obtained. The theory of high fastness property of dyed color can be obtained, developing another type of variation of multi-functional reactive dyestuff that contains various reactive groups. This type of dyestuff may lower the amount of dyestuff remained in the dyeing wastewater due to its property of high build-up. Its high usage rate means lowering cost and decreases or completely eliminates the environment problem caused by dyestuff wastewater. Therefore, we introduce various reactive functional groups in the dyestuff's main contents to allow the cellulose fiber obtaining the quality of high absorption, high build-up and fastness property during dyeing process. Nevertheless, the highly reproducible dyeing can be obtained. A dyed object with highly fastness property can be achieved.
