Abstract: The invention relates to specific ketones of formula (I) which act as photolabile pro-fragrances. The invention further relates to detergents or cleaning agents, cosmetic agents and air freshening products including ketones of said type. The invention also relates to a method for lastingly scenting surfaces and a method for lastingly fragrancing rooms using said ketones.

Abstract: Fragrances having a fresh character are usually very volatile and therefore not very economical in typical applications such as washing or cleaning processes for example. For that reason they have to be used in relatively large amounts in order to bring about appropriate effects. The present invention describes photolabile pro-fragrances of formula (I) that allow for a greatly improved persistence of the fragrance impression, in particular one having a fresh character, in typical applications. Said pro-fragrances attach very readily to target substrates, such as textiles for example. A more economical use of the fragrances in question can be ensured in this way.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to special orthoformic acid esters of formula (I), as defined herein, which can be used as thermally labile and acid-labile fragrance storage substances. The disclosure further relates to detergents and cleaning agents, cosmetic agents and air freshening products containing such orthoformic acid esters, as well as to a method for lastingly fragrancing surfaces.

Abstract: The invention relates to specific phenacyl ethers of formula (I), as defined herein, which can be used as photolabile pro-fragrances. The invention further relates to washing and cleaning agents, cosmetic agents, and air freshening agents containing such phenacyl ethers, and a method for the long-lasting scenting of surfaces.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to the use of inorganic oxides, hydroxides or oxyhydroxides in enzyme-containing detergents or cleaning agents in order to increase enzyme stability as well as to an enzyme-containing detergent or cleaning agent, in particular a liquid detergent or cleaning agent having greater enzyme stability.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an automatic dishwasher detergent which comprises metal complex of formula Mn+L(Amm?)n/m, wherein M is a metal cation, A is an arbitrary anion, n and m are integers selected from 1 to 6, and L is a neutral ligand of formula (II), wherein each X is as defined herein, and which exhibits improved cleaning performance in the removal of burnt-on soiling, to the use of this dishwasher detergent, and to a method for automatically washing dishes using this dishwasher detergent.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of 8-hydroxyquinoline sulfonic acids in detergents and cleaning agents for improving the washing or cleaning performance with respect to bleachable stains.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of dihydroxyterephthalic acid derivatives in washing and cleaning agents for improving the washing or cleaning performance with respect to bleachable stains.

Abstract: Fragrances that provide a scent of freshness tend to be volatile and are therefore not very economical when used in typical applications such as washing or cleaning processes, so they have to be used in relatively large quantities to be able to produce adequate effects. The disclosed photolabile pro-fragrances provide a much longer-lasting sense of fragrance, in particular with a scent of freshness, when used in typical applications, thus allowing said fragrances to be used economically.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of bis-pyranonylmethanes in detergents and cleaning agents to improve the washing or cleaning performance in regard to bleachable stains.

Abstract: The invention relates to surfactants of the formula (I), in which R1 stands for —H or —CH3; R2, R3, R4, R5, R6 independently stand for —H, —CH3, —CH2CH3, —CH2CH2CH3, —CH(CH3)2, —CH2CH2CH2CH3, —CH2CH(CH3)2, —CH(CH3)CH2CH3, —C(CH3)3, —OH, —OCH3, —OCH2CH3, —OCH2CH2CH3, —OCH(CH3)2, a linear or branched alkyl group containing 8 to 20 C atoms, or —SO3?X+; X+ stands for a monovalent cation or the nth part of an n-valent cation; exactly one radical R2, R3, R4, R5, R6 stands for —SO3?X+; and exactly one radical R2, R3, R4, R5, R6 stands for a linear or branched alkyl radical containing 8 to 20 C atoms.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for producing photocleavable scent precursors, to products containing the scent precursors, and to the use of the scent precursors for prolonging the scent impression in the product and on surfaces treated with the product.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of polyamidohydroxamates in washing and cleaning agents to improve cleaning performance, in particular with regard to stains containing polymerizable dyes.

Abstract: The color protection properties of detergents when used to wash colored textiles is to be improved. This is substantially achieved in that polymers are used which are molecularly imprinted using dyes.

Abstract: The invention relates to a washing machine (1) with a washing chamber (2) for receiving a washing liquid and textiles to be cleaned and with a discoloration reservoir (3) which has an inlet (4) for introducing washing liquid from the washing chamber (2) into the discoloration reservoir (3) and an outlet (5) for discharging washing liquid from the discoloration reservoir (3) into the washing chamber (2), and which moreover has at least one activation module, such as, for example, a UV radiation source or an electrode arrangement which is suitable for initiating, within the discoloration reservoir (3), a process for forming free radicals in the washing liquid. Furthermore, a method for washing textiles in such a washing machine is also specified.

Abstract: An aqueous liquid detergent is proposed, containing a surfactant and optionally additional conventional constituents, said agent containing sulfoethyl cellulose having a substitution rate of 0.3 to 0.9 and/or the salt thereof.

Abstract: The invention relates to specific ketones of formula (I) which act as photolabile pro-fragrances. The invention also relates to detergents or cleaning agents, cosmetic agents and air fresheners including such ketones. The invention further relates to a method for creating a long-lasting fragrance on surfaces and also to a method for creating a long-lasting fragrance in a room using the aforementioned ketones.

Abstract: Many fragrances that provide a scent of freshness tend to be highly volatile and are therefore not very economical when used in typical applications such as washing or cleaning processes, so they have to be used in relatively large quantities to be able to produce adequate effects. The disclosed photolabile pro-fragrances provide a much longer-lasting sense of fragrance, in particular with a scent of freshness, when used in typical applications, thus allowing said fragrances to be used efficiently.
