Abstract
Uniformly dyed water-swellable cellulosic fibers obtained by dyeing cellulosic fibers in the swollen state with a dye of the formula ##STR1## in which D is the radical of a diazo component and R is an aliphatic, cycloaliphatic or araliphatic radical. The fibers are eminently suitable as textile material.
Description

The invention relates to uniformly dyed water-swellable cellulosic fibers which are fast to washing, dry-cleaning, sublimation and light and have been produced by contacting water-swellable cellulose fibers sequentially or concomitantly with water, ethylene glycol or a derivative thereof and, while the fibers are still swollen, an essentially water-insoluble dye of the formula I ##STR2## where D is the radical of a diazo component and R is an aliphatic, cycloaliphatic or araliphatic radical.
The diazo component DNH.sub.2 is in the main derived from the benzene, azobenzene, naphthalene, anthraquinone, thiophene, thiazole, thiadiazole, benzthiazole, benzisothiazole, triazole, pyrazole or indazole series.
Examples of substituents of the radicals D of the diazo components are:
In the benzene series: chlorine, bromine, nitro, cyano, trifluoromethyl, methylsulfonyl, ethylsulfonyl, phenylsulfonyl, carbomethoxy, carbobutoxy, carbo-.beta.-methoxyethoxy, carbo-.beta.-hydroxyethoxy, unsubstituted, N-monosubstituted or N-disubstituted carboxylic acid amide or sulfonamide, methyl, ethyl, methoxy, ethoxy, 3-phenyl-1,2,4-oxdiazolyl and 3-alkyl-1,2,4-oxdiazolyl (where alkyl is of 1 to 4 carbon atoms).
Examples of N-substituents of the carboxylic acid amides or sulfonamides are methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl, .beta.-hydroxyethyl, .gamma.-hydroxypropyl, .beta.-methoxyethyl, .gamma.-methoxypropyl, .gamma.-ethoxypropyl, cyclohexyl, benzyl, phenoxyethoxypropyl or phenyl; the amide may also be a pyrrolidide, piperidide or morpholide.
In the azobenzene series: chlorine, bromine, nitro, cyano, methyl, hydroxyl, ethyl, methoxy and ethoxy.
In the heterocyclic series: chlorine, bromine, nitro, cyano, methyl, ethyl, phenyl, methoxy, ethoxy, methylmercapto, .beta.-carbomethoxyethylmercapto, .beta.-carboethoxyethylmercapto, carbomethoxy, carboethoxy, acetyl, methylsulfonyl and ethylsulfonyl.

From the point of view of their structure, the dyes of the formula I can be described as disperse dyes which, as a rule, cannot be applied to, for example, cotton. However, U.S. Pat. No. 3,706,525 which is incorporated herein by reference, discloses a process which permits printing such dyes on cellulose and cellulose-containing textile material. The general principle of the disclosures in the said patent in respect of process conditions also apply to the dyes of formula I. Further, German Laid-Open Applications Nos. 25 24 243 and 25 28 743 disclose other processes by means of which the dyes of formula I can be applied. Amongst these, printing processes are preferred.
The dyes of formula I give dyeings and prints with excellent fastness properties, amongst which the fastness to wet treatments and in some cases also the lightfastness should be singled out. For example, when prints are washed, there is no staining of any white ground which may be present.
Some of the dyes of the formula I may also be used as disperse dyes for polyesters.
For application, the dyes of formula I are usually converted into formulations: In addition to the dyes of the formula I, these formulations contain dispersants, water-retaining agents and water, with or without other components conventionally used in dye formulations, eg. disinfectants or anti-foam agents.
Cationic compounds may be used as the dispersants, but non-ionic compounds and, in particular, anionic compounds, i.e. the dispersants conventionally used for disperse dyes, are preferred. Specific examples are ligninsulfonates, sulfomethylation products of phenol, condensation products of phenolsulfonic acids, phenol, formaldehyde and urea, condensation products of .beta.-sulfonaphthalene and formaldehyde, and polyadducts of propylene oxide with ethylene glycol, propylene glycol or ethylenediamine.
Water-retaining agents are, in particular, glycols and glycol ethers, eg. ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, diethylene glycol and ethylene glycol monomethyl ether.





In the Examples which follow, parts and percentages are by weight, unless stated otherwise.
EXAMPLE 1 ##STR32##
The azo dye obtained by coupling diazotized 1-aminoanthraquinone with .beta.-hydroxynaphthoic acid is converted to the acid chloride by reaction with thionyl chloride (for example as described in German Laid-Open Application DOS No. 2,520,896, Example 1). A mixture of 22 parts of this azo dye-carboxylic acid chloride and 19.5 parts of phenoxyethoxypropylamine in 100 parts by volume of toluene is stirred for 5 hours at room temperature. The precipitate which crystallizes out from the red solution is filtered off, washed with methanol and dried. 20 parts of a red dye of the stated structure are obtained. The melting point is 188.degree.-189.degree. C.
A cotton fabric is printed by rotary screen printing with an ink which comprises 10 parts of the above dye, 100 parts of polyethylene glycol of molecular weight 300 and 790 parts of a 3% strength alginate thickener, and the print is dried at 100.degree. C. It is then treated with hot air at 200.degree. C. for 1 minute, rinsed cold, soaped at the boil, again rinsed cold and dried. A lightfast and washfast red print on a white ground is obtained.
EXAMPLE 2
19.5 parts of phenoxyethoxypropylamine are added to a suspension of 22 parts of the azo dye-carboxylic acid chloride described in Example 1, in 100 parts by volume of water, and the mixture is stirred for 12 hours at room temperature. The red precipitate is then filtered off, washed with water and dried. 29 parts of the dye described in Example 1 are obtained.
EXAMPLE 3 ##STR33##
22 parts of the azo dye-carboxylic acid chloride are reacted with 14.7 parts of hydroxybutoxypropylamine in 100 parts by volume of o-dichlorobenzene, by the method described in Example 1. 16 parts of azo dye of the above structure are obtained; this compound dyes polyethylene terephthalate fabrics, by the conventional dyeing methods, in red hues having very good lightfastness and fastness to thermofixation.
An ink prepared from this dye as described in Example 1 gives a lightfast and washfast red print on cotton or cotton/polyester union fabric if applied by rotary screen printing.
The Examples of azo dyes listed below are prepared by the methods described in the preceding Examples.

22.3 parts of 1-aminoanthraquinone are introduced into a mixture of 180 parts of 96% strength sulfuric acid and 64 parts of 40% strength nitrosylsulfuric acid at 10.degree.-15.degree. C. After stirring for 4 hours at the same temperature, the mixture is heated to 35.degree. C. and kept at this temperature for 15 minutes.
The mixture is then introduced into a mixture of 600 parts of ice and 200 parts of water. The sparingly soluble diazonium sulfate is filtered off and washed with a little ice water.
The diazonium salt is added in small portions, at 0.degree.-5.degree. C., to a mixture of 160 parts by volume of the solution of the coupling component obtained as described in Example 53 and 2,000 parts by volume of N-methylpyrrolidone, and 200 parts of ice are also added.
After completion of coupling, the azo dye produced is filtered off, washed with alcohol and water and dried at 100.degree. C. A brownish red powder is obtained, which gives a red solution in N-methylpyrrolidone. The dye thus prepared is identical with that obtained as described in Example 1.
The dyes listed below can be obtained by the same process, and using the same coupling component.
