  • Patent number: 4730038
    Abstract: Water-soluble disazo compounds having fiber-reactive dyestuff properties of the general formula (1) ##STR1## in which D.sub.1 and D.sub.2 are identical or different and each represents a phenyl radical or a naphthyl radical, both of which are substituted by a group of the formula moiety Y or formula moiety Z defined below and can additionally be substituted by one or two substituents from the group comprising sulfo, chlorine, bromine, lower alkyl and lower alkoxy, Z is a group of the formula (2a), (2b), (2c), (2d), (2e) or (2f) ##STR2## in which R denotes an alkyl group having 1 to 4 C atoms and X denotes a chlorine atom, the acetoxy group, the thiosulfate group, the phosphate group or the sulfato group; Y is a radical of the formula (3) ##STR3## in which R.sup.1 and R.sup.

  • Patent number: 4622390
    Abstract: Water-soluble disazo dyestuffs of the formula ##STR1## which contain a 1-amino-8-naphthol-3,6- or -4,6-disulfonic acid moiety as a bivalent coupling component and which contain diazo components with fibre-reactive groups characterized by the inclusion of one or two chloro-triazinyl groups and one or two of the six groups defined by the substituent Z, namely, ##STR2## each of which are connected to the benzene moiety of the diazo component; the chloro-triazinyl group is further substituted by a substituted or unsubstituted phenylamino or substituted or unsubstituted naphthylamino group, a substitutent of which may be one of the six groups defined by the Z substituent; if there is only one chloro-triazinyl group in the compound, then the diazo component is also substituted by one of the Z substituents; these compounds are dyestuffs which exhibit a good fixation degree of the dyestuffs in fabrics.

  • Patent number: 4485041
    Abstract: The novel water-soluble disazo dyestuffs consist of two monoazo dyestuff moieties each containing as diazo component an amine of the benzene or naphthalene series and as coupling component an amino-naphthol-mono- or disulfonic acid. The two moieties are bonded to each other via a triazine radical which carries a halogen atom, and is bound to the amino groups of the coupling components and the diazo components contain a fiber-reactive radical of the vinyl sulfone series. To produce the dyestuffs 2 mols of the diazo compound carrying the fiber-reactive radical of the vinyl sulfone series is coupled with 1 mol of a bivalent coupling component consisting of 2 radicals of the aminonaphthol bound to the triazine ring via the amino groups, or two monoazo dyestuffs each synthesized from the aforesaid diazo component and an aminonaphthol-disulfonic acid coupling component are reacted with a 1,3,5-trihalogeno-triazine.

  • Patent number: 4378312
    Abstract: Water-soluble compounds and their salts suitable as dyestuffs of the formula ##STR1## in which D is a benzene or naphthalene nucleus, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are, inter alia, hydrogen, halogen, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy and sulfo, R.sub.1 being in ortho-position to the azo group, X is a fiber-reactive radical of the vinyl sulfone series, K.sub.1 and K.sub.2 are radicals of coupling components of the acetoacetarylide and pyrozolone series and K.sub.2 additionally denotes a radical of the sulfonaphthol series, the coupling components being bound to the triazine ring via amino groups, Y is a halogen atom, a sulfo group, a thio ether or oxygen ether radical, or a primary, secondary or tertiary amino group, A is an aliphatic, aliphatic-heterocyclic, aliphatic-aromatic or aromatic bridge member and n is zero or one.

  • Patent number: 4323497
    Abstract: The novel water-soluble disazo dyestuffs consist of two monoazo dyestuff moieties each containing as diazo component an amine of the benzene or naphthalene series and as coupling component an amino-naphthol-mono- or disulfonic acid. The two moieties are bonded to each other via a bridge member bound to the amino groups of the coupling components and comprising two triazine radicals each containing a halogen atom, a sulfonic acid group or a thio ether or oxygen ether group or an amino group and the diazo components contain a fiber-reactive radical of the vinyl sulfone series. The metal-free dyestuffs can be transformed into the corresponding heavy metal complex dyestuffs, preferably copper, cobalt and chromium complex dyestuffs, by treatment with an agent donating a heavy metal cation. The novel dyestuffs are excellently suitable for dyeing and printing fiber material of natural and regenerated cellulose and natural, regenerated and synthetic polyamides.
