Description

This invention relates to reactive dyes and more particularly to reactive dyes of the triphenodioxazine series and their application to textile materials.

Reactive dyes of the triphenodioxazine series are known and have been described in, for example, United Kingdom Patent Specifications 1349513, 1368158, 1450746, 1477071, 1559752 and 2059985. These specifications provide relatively broad definitions of sulphonated triphenodioxazine dyes having fibre-reactive groups but the dyes specifically described in detail are generally of the structure: ##STR2## wherein X represents a chlorine or bromine atom and Z represents a residue which includes a fibre-reactive group.

It has now been found that triphenodioxazine reactive dyes carrying sulphonate ester substituents exhibit a range of useful properties when applied to cellulosic textiles.

Accordingly, the invention provides triphenodioxazine reactive dyes which, in the free acid form, have the formula: ##STR3## wherein each of T.sup.1 and T.sup.2, independently, represents H, Cl, Br, F, SO.sub.3 H or an optionally substituted alkyl or aryl radical;

R.sup.1 represents H or an optionally substituted hydrocarbon or heterocyclic radical; R.sup.2 represents an optionally substituted hydrocarbon radical; A represents C.sub.1-4 -alkyl, C.sub.1-4 -alkoxy, Cl, COOH or SO.sub.3 H, and n has a value of 0 or 1, the nature of the substituents being such that the dyes contain at least two SO.sub.3 H groups and at least two fibre-reactive groups.

The fibre-reactive groups present in the dyes of Formula (1) are groups capable, under suitable conditions, of reacting with the hydroxyl groups present in cellulosic fibres or with the amino groups present in natural and synthetic fibres to form a covalent linkage between the dye and the fibre. Such groups have been fully described in the prior art, for example in our GB 2063284A. The location of the fibre-reactive group is preferably such that at least one of R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 is or includes a fibre-reactive group.

The optionally substituted hydrocarbon radicals represented by R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are typically optionally substituted alkyl, cycloalkyl, aralkyl and aryl radicals. In the case of R.sup.1, the preferred hydrocarbon radicals are optionally substituted alkyl radicals; R.sup.2 is preferably an optionally substituted aryl radical.

Optionally substituted heterocyclic radicals which may be represented by R.sup.1 include fibre-reactive heterocyclic radicals, for example appropriately substituted triazinyl and pyrimidinyl radicals such as monochlorotriazinyl, sulphotriazinyl, dichloropyrimidinyl and trichloropyrimidinyl radical.

Examples of optionally substituted alkyl radicals which may be represented by T.sup.1, T.sup.2, R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 particularly include C.sub.1-4 -alkyl groups. Examples of optionally substituted aryl radicals which may be represented by T.sup.1, T.sup.2, R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 particularly include optionally substituted phenyl radicals, for example phenyl, sulphophenyl, methylphenyl, disulphophenyl, dimethylphenyl, methoxyphenyl, dimethoxyphenyl, chlorophenyl, dichlorophenyl, methylchlorophenyl, methoxymethylphenyl, methoxychlorophenyl, aminophenyl and acetylaminophenyl. Examples of optionally substituted aralkyl radicals which may be represented by R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 include benzyl and mono- and di-sulphobenzyl.

Optionally substituted hydrocarbon radicals which may be represented by R.sup.1 particularly include radicals of the formula:

--X--NR.sup.3 --Z (2) wherein X represents an optionally substituted alkylene, aralkylene or arylene radical, R.sup.3 represents hydrogen or an optionally substituted hydrocarbon radical and Z represents a fibre-reactive group.

Optionally substituted hydrocarbon radicals which may be represented by R.sup.3 particularly include optionally substituted alkyl (especially C.sub.1-4 alkyl) and optionally substituted aryl (especially phenyl) radicals.

The residues represented by X in Formula (2) are preferably alkylene or aralkylene residues and as examples of such groups there may be mentioned:

ethylene 1,2- and 1,3-propylene 2-hydroxy-1,3-propylene 1- and 2-phenyl-1,3-propylene 2-(4'-sulphophenyl)-1,3-propylene 1,4-, 2,3- and 2,4-butylene 2-methyl-1,3-propylene 2-methyl-2,4-pentylene 2.2-dimethyl-1,3-propylene 1-phenylethylene 1-chloro-2,3-propylene 1,6- and 2,5-hexylene 2,3-diphenyl-1,4-butylene 1-(methoxycarbonyl)-1,5-pentylene 1-carboxy-1,5-pentylene 2,7-heptylene 3-methyl-1,6-hexylene ##STR4##

The fibre-reactive groups represented by Z may be any of the fibre-reactive groups described in the prior art. They may be any conventional cellulose reactive group such as those disclosed in patent specifications and other literature on reactive dyes, e.g. UK Patent Specification No. 1440948.

As examples of cellulose reactive groups there may be mentioned aliphatic sulphonyl groups which contain a sulphate ester group in beta-position to the sulphur atom, e.g. beta-sulphatoethylsulphonyl groups, alpha,beta-unsaturated acyl radicals of aliphatic carboxylic acids, for example acrylic acid, alpha-chloroacrylic acid, alpha-bromoacrylic acid, propiolic acid, maleic acid and mono- and dichloro maleic acids; also the acyl radicals of acids which contain a substitutent which reacts with cellulose in the presence of an alkali, e.g. the radical of a halogenated aliphatic acid such as chloroacetic acid, beta-chloro and beta-bromopropionic acids and alpha,beta-dichloro- and dibromopropionic acids or radicals of vinylsulphonyl- or beta-chloroethylsulphonyl- or beta-sulphatoethyl-sulphonyl-endo-methylene cyclohexane carboxylic acids. Other examples of cellulose reactive groups are tetrafluorocyclobutyl carbonyl, trifluorocyclobutenyl carbonyl, tetrafluorocyclobutylethenyl carbonyl, trifluorocyclobutenylethenyl carbonyl; activated halogenated 1,3-dicyanobenzene radicals such as

2,4-dicyano-3,5-difluoro-6-chlorophenyl, 2,4-dicyano-3,5-difluoro-6-nitrophenyl, 2,4-dicyano-3,5,6-trifluorophenyl, 2,4-dicyano-3,5,6-trichlorophenyl, 2,4,6-tricyano-3,5-difluorophenyl,

2,4,6-tricyano-3,5-dichlorophenyl and heterocyclic radicals which contain 1, 2 or 3 nitrogen atoms in the heterocyclic ring and at least one cellulose reactive substituent on a carbon atom of the ring.

It may be noted that many reactive groups may be defined as both heterocyclic or acyl groups since they consist of an acyl group carrying a heterocyclic substituent. For convenience in such cases where the heterocyclic ring carries the cellulose reactive substituent these are usually referred to as heterocyclic reactive groups in this specification.

As examples of such heterocyclic radicals there may be mentioned for example:

2:3-dichloroquinoxaline-5- or -6-sulphonyl, 2:3-dichloroquinoxaline-5- or -6-carbonyl, 2:4-dichloroquinazolin-6- or -7-sulphonyl, 2:4:6-trichloroquinazolin-7- or -8-sulphonyl, 2:4:7- or 2:4:8-trichloroquinazolin-6-sulphonyl, 2:4-dichloroquinazolin-6-carbonyl, 1:4-dichlorophthalazine-6-carbonyl, 4:5-dichloropyridazon-1-yl-ethylcarbonyl, 2:4-dichloropyrimidine-5-carbonyl, 4-(4':5'-dichloropyridaz-6'-on-1'-yl)benzoyl, 2-chlorobenzthiazole-6-carbonyl, 3,6-dichloropyrazin-4-carbonyl, 4-(4':5'-dichloropyridaz-6'-on-1'-yl)phenylsulphonyl; activated 4,6-dihalopyridin-2-yl and 2,6-dihalopyridin-4-yl groups such as: 3,4,5,6-tetrafluoropyridin-2-yl, 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoropyridin-4-yl, 2,4,6-trifluoro-3-cyanopyridin-4-yl, 2,5,6-trichloro-3-cyanopyridin-4-yl, 2,6-difluoro-3-cyano-5-chloropyridin-4-yl, 2,6-difluoro-3,5-dichloropyridin-4-yl and more particularly triazinyl or pyrimidinyl groups.

Examples of particular pyrimidinyl groups are pyrimidin-2-yl or -4-yl groups having a cellulose reactive atom or group especially Cl, Br or F in at least one of the remaining 2-, 4- and 6-positions. The 5-position may carry various substituents such as Cl or CN which are not normally cellulose reactive in themselves but may enhance the reactivity of substituents in other positions of the pyrimidine ring. As specific examples of such pyrimidinyl groups there may be mentioned:

2,6-dichloropyrimidin-4-yl, 4,6-dichloropyrimidin-2-yl, 2,5,6-trichloropyrimidin-4-yl, 4,5,6-trichloropyrimidin-2-yl, 5-chloro-2-methylsulphonyl-6-methylpyrimidin-4-yl, 2,6-dichloro-5-cyanopyrimidin-4-yl, 4,6-dichloro-5-cyanopyrimidin-2-yl, 2,6-difluoro-5-chloropyrimidin-4-yl, 4,6-difluoro-5-chloropyrimidin-2-yl, 2,6-difluoro-5-cyanopyrimidin-4-yl, 4,6-difluoro-5-cyanopyrimidin-2-yl.

Examples of particular triazinyl groups are triazin-2-yl groups having cellulose reactive atoms or groups on one or both of the 4- and 6-positions. In this instance a wide range of cellulose reactive atoms or groups are available such as activated aryloxy or various groups linked through a sulphur atom, e.g. SO.sub.3 H but the preferred reactive atoms or groups are F, Br or especially Cl; quaternary ammonium groups such as tri-lower alkyl ammonium, e.g. (CH.sub.3).sub.3 N.sup.+ -- and pyridinium groups especially those derived from pyridine carboxylic acids in particular from nicotinic acid.

The triazinyl groups having only one reactive atom or group on the nucleus in the 4- or 6-position may have a substituent not reactive to cellulose in the remaining 4- or 6-position.

As examples of such non-reactive substituents there may be mentioned alkyl or aryl thio groups, alkoxy or aryloxy groups and optionally substituted amino groups.

Preferred forms of these groups include lower, i.e. C.sub.1-4 -alkoxy, e.g. methoxy, ethoxy, n-propoxy and iso-propoxy, butoxy and lower alkoxy lower alkoxy, e.g. beta-methoxy-ethoxy, beta-ethoxyethoxy, phenoxy and sulphophenoxy; amino; lower alkylamino, e.g. methylamino, ethylamino, butylamino, di(lower alkyl)amino, e.g. dimethylamino, diethylamino, methylethylamino, dibutylamino and groups of the latter two types in which the alkyl groups are substituted, in particular by OH, CN or SO.sub.3 H, e.g. beta-hydroxyethylamino, di(beta-hydroxyethyl)amino, beta-cyanoethylamino, di(beta-cyanoethyl)amino, beta-sulphoethylamino, beta-hydroxypropylamino, (beta-hydroxybutyl)ethylamino and (beta-hydroxyethyl)methylamino; cycloalkylamino, e.g. cyclohexylamino; cyclic amino, e.g. morpholino or piperazino; naphthylamino substituted by 1,2 or 3 SO.sub.3 H groups and optionally substituted phenyl amino groups.

As a particularly preferred form of the optionally substituted phenylamino groups there may be mentioned groups of the formula: ##STR5## where G=H, methyl, ethyl, -sulphomethyl, beta-carboxy-, beta-hyroxy- or beta-cyanoethyl and Y and X are each independently selected from H, COOH, SO.sub.3 H, CH.sub.3, C.sub.2 H.sub.5, OCH.sub.3, OC.sub.2 H.sub.5, Cl, Br, CN, NO.sub.2, NHCOCH.sub.3 and beta-sulphatoethylsulphonyl.

A particularly important class of dyes within the scope of Formula (1) are the dyes of the formula: ##STR6## wherein T.sup.1, T.sup.2, A, n, R.sup.2, X and Z have the meanings given above and R.sup.3 is hydrogen or an optionally substituted alkyl or aryl radical, the nature of the substituents being such that the dyes contain at least two SO.sub.3 H groups.

Optionally substituted hydrocarbon radicals which may be represented by R.sup.1 also include sulphatoethyl groups which are known to be fibre-reactive.

Optionally substituted hydrocarbon radicals which may be represented by R.sup.2 particularly include radicals of the formula: ##STR7## wherein each of Q.sup.1 and Q.sup.2 represents hydrogen or a non-fibre-reactive substituent, for example chlorine, bromine, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, acylamino or sulpho and Q.sup.3 represents Q.sup.1 or a fibre-reactive substituent, especially halogenotriazinylamino, halogenopyrimidinylamino or sulphatoethylsulphonyl.

Useful structures containing radicals of Formula (5) include dyes of the formula: ##STR8## wherein T.sup.1, T.sup.2, A, n and Q.sup.1 have the meanings given above, R.sup.1 is hydrogen or an optionally substituted hydrocarbon radical, for example sulphatoethyl and Z.sup.1 is a heterocyclic fibre-reactive group, for example monohalogenotriazinyl.

Other useful structures include dyes of the formula: ##STR9## wherein T.sup.1, T.sup.2, A, n and Q.sup.1 have the meanings given above and R.sup.1 is hydrogen or an optionally substituted hydrocarbon radical, for example a radical of the formula:

--X--NR.sup.3 --Z.sup.1 ( 8) wherein X, R.sup.3 and Z.sup.1 have the meanings given above.

The dyes of the invention may be prepared by reactions conventional to triphenodioxazine chemistry. For example, a sulphonchloride of the formula: ##STR10## may be reacted with a hydroxy compound of the formula:

R.sup.2 OH (10) to form a chloronitrobenzene sulphonate ester which is reacted with an amine of the formula: R.sup.1 NH.sub.2 ( 11) and reduced to give a compound of the formula: ##STR11## which is then reacted in conventional manner with the appropriate 1,4-benzoquinone derivative to form a dianilide of the formula: ##STR12## wherein R.sup.1, R.sup.2, T.sup.1, T.sup.2, A and n are as defined above. The dianilide may then be cyclised in the presence of a strongly acid condensing agent, for example oleum, to form the triphenodioxazine. Sulphonic acid groups may be introduced into the dianilide during cyclisation, for example into any aryl groups represented by R.sup.2.

Fibre-reactive groups may be introduced into the dye in conventional manner, for example by reacting a diaminotriphenodioxazine with cyanuric chloride or its primary condensation products with ammonia, primary and secondary amines, alcohols and mercaptans.

The dyes prepared as described above may be isolated by any conventional means, for example by spray drying or precipitation and filtration.

The dyes contain sulphonic acid groups which confer water-solubility and they may be isolated with such groups in the free acid form. However, it is usually found more convenient to isolate the dyes in the form of salts particularly alkali metal salts, especially sodium.

The dyes of the present invention may be used for colouring a wide range of textile materials containing hydroxyl or amino groups, e.g. wool, silk, synthetic polyamides and natural or regenerated cellulose, for example cotton or viscose rayon materials, by conventional methods used for colouring such materials with water-soluble reactive dyes, e.g. in the case of cellulose they are preferably applied in conjunction with a treatment with an acid binding agent, e.g. caustic soda, sodium carbonate, phosphate, silicate or bicarbonate, which may be applied to the cellulose textile materials before, during or after the application of the dye.

The dyes of the present invention are valuable reactive dyes for cellulose. They yield bright blue coloured textiles with good resistance to washing, chlorine and light. They are usually characterised by good strength and an ability to build-up to high depths of shade.

The invention is illustrated but not limited by the following Examples in which all parts and percentages are by weight unless otherwise indicated.
