Description: The present invention relates to triazine compounds suitable for use in dyeing and printing materials containing hydroxyl groups and/or amide groups, particularly those such as cellulose fiber, natural and synthetic polyamide fibers, polyurethane fiber, leather and mixed yarns thereof, to obtain a color fast to light and wetness, as well as to the application of said compounds. There are known a variety of compounds having 2 or more vinyl sulfone type reactive groups in one molecule. However, they are yet insufficient from the viewpoint of dyeing performances such as build-up property, and a further improvement of these dyes is waited for. EP-A-0 264 137 discloses scarlet monoazo compounds having two vinyl sulfon type fiber-reactive groups. EP-A-0 385 120 discloses asymmetrical dioxazine compounds having a substituted triazinyl group provided with fiber-reactive groups. FR-A-2 638 459 discloses reactive dyestuffs having a triazinyl group substituted with two fiber-reactive groups. A variety of reactive dyes have hitherto been used extensively for dyeing and printing fiber materials. Today's level of the technique, however, is unsatisfactory from the viewpoint of the high requirements concerning applicability to special dyeing processes and the requirement concerning fastness properties of the dyed products which is becoming higher. For example, the so far known reactive dyes are unsatisfactory in solubility, dyeing performances such as build-up property, and fastness properties such as fastness to acid hydrolysis, chlorine fastness, etc., and it is intensely desired to develop a more improved dye. The excellency in build-up property is a very important factor of the dye, because today's dyeing processes have become requiring a more and more elevated economicity. It is the object of the present invention to provide novel compounds capable of overcoming the above-mentioned faults of the known dyes and extensively fulfilling the necessary conditions which a dye must fulfil .

In this method, the order of the condensation reaction is not critical. If the yield of the compound of general formula (I) and its quality are taken into consideration, however, it is preferable to react the cyanuric halide with a compound of lower reactivity earlier than a compound of higher reactivity. Although conditions of the reaction are not particularly critical, the reaction is made to progress while controlling the conditions so that the temperature and pH value come to -10°C to 40°C at pH 2-9 primarily, 0°C to 70°C at pH 2-9 secondarily and 10°C to 100°C at pH 2-9 tertiarily, whereby a compound represented by general formula (I) or its salt can be obtained. As the starting 2,4,6-trihalogeno-s-triazine, cyanuric chloride and cyanuric fluoride are particularly preferable. Examples of the amine represented by formula (III) include the followings: β-(β-chloroethylsulfonyl)ethylamine, β-vinylsulfonylethylamine, γ-(β-chloroethylsulfonyl)propylamine, bis[β-(β-chloroethyl)sulfonylethyl]amine, bis(β-vinylsulfonyl)ethylamine, β-[β-(β-chloroethylsulfonyl)ethoxy]ethylamine, β-(β-vinylsulfonylethoxy)ethylamine, bis[β-(β-vinylsulfonylethoxy)ethyl]amine, β-[β-(β-chloroethylsulfonyl)ethylamino]ethylamine, β-(β-vinylsulfonylethylamino)ethylamine, (β-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)ethylamine, γ-(β-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)propylamine, bis[β-(β-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)ethyl]amine, β-[β-(β-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)ethoxy]ethylamine, β-[β-(β-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)ethylamino]ethylamine, and the like. The compounds of the present invention have a fiber-reactive group and can be used for dyeing or printing hydroxy group- or carbonamide group-containing materials. Preferably, the material to be dyed or printed is used in the form of a fiber material or a mixed woven material thereof. Said hydroxy group-containing material includes natural and synthetic hydroxy group-containing materials such as cellulose fiber materials, their regenerated products and polyvinyl alcohol. As the cellulose fiber material, cotton and other plant fibers such as linen, flax, jute and ramie fibers are preferable. As the regenerated cellulose fiber, viscose staple and filament viscose can be referred to. Said carbonamide group-containing material includes synthetic and natural polyamides and polyurethanes. Particularly in the form of a fiber, it includes wool and other animal furs, silk, leather, polyamide-6,6, polyamide-6, polyamide-11 and polyamide-4. The compounds of the present invention can be used for dyeing or printing said materials, particularly those such as fiber materials, in a manner depending on physical and chemical properties of the material. The manner includes, for example, exhaustion dyeing, padding and printing methods. For example, the exhaustion dyeing method can be carried out at a relatively low temperature in the presence of an acid binding agent such as sodium carbonate, sodium tertiary phosphate, sodium hydroxide and the like and, if desired, a neutral salt such as sodium sulfate optionally together with dissolving assistants, penetrants or level dyeing agents. The neutral salt which can be used for promoting the exhaustion of the dye may be added either after the intended dyeing temperature has been reached or before it, optionally in portions. The padding method can be carried out by padding the materials at room or elevated temperature, followed by drying and then steaming or dry-heating the padded materials to perform dye fixation. The printing method can be carried out in a one-phase or two-phase manner on the cellulose fiber material. The one-phase printing may be conducted by printing the fiber materials with a printing paste containing an acid-binding agent such as sodium bicarbonate and the like, followed by steaming at a temperature of 100° to 160°C. The two-phase printing may be conducted by printing the fiber materials with a neutral or weakly acidic printing paste, and passing the materials through a hot alkaline bath containing an electrolyte or over-padding the materials with an alkaline padding liquor containing an electrolyte, followed by a steaming or dry-heating treatment. For the preparation of the printing paste, a paste or emulsifier such as sodium alginate or starch ether is used optionally together with a conventional printing assistant such as urea and/or a dispersing agent. As examples of the acid binding agent suitable for fixing the compound of the present invention onto cellulose fiber, water-soluble basic salts formed between an alkali metal or an alkaline earth metal and an inorganic or organic acid or a compound liberating alkali in a heated state can be referred to. Particularly, alkali metal salts formed between an alkali metal hydroxide and an inorganic or organic acid of weak or medium strength are preferable, among which sodium salts and potassium salts are most preferable. Examples of such acid binding agent include sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium bicarbonate, sodium carbonate, sodium formate, potassium carbonate, sodium primary, secondary and tertiary phosphates, sodium silicate and sodium trichloroacetate. The dyeing of synthetic and natural polyamide and polyurethane fibers can be carried out by performing exhaustion in an acid or weak acid bath at a controlled pH value and then making the bath neutral or in some cases alkaline to perform fixation. The dyeing temperature ranges usually from 60° to 120°C. In order to achieve a level dyeing, there may be used a conventional level dyeing agent such as a condensation product between cyanuric chloride and 3 times by mole of aminobenzenesulfonic acid or aminonaphthalenesulfonic acid or an addition product between stearylamine and ethylene oxide. The compound of the present invention is characterized in that it exhibits excellent performances in dyeing and printing fiber materials. It is particularly useful for dyeing cellulose fiber materials, and gives a dyed product excellent in light fastness, perspiration-light fastness, wet fastnesses such as washing resistance, chlorine resistance, peroxide-washing resistance, perspiration resistance, acid hydrolysis resistance and alkali resistance, and abrasion fastness and iron fastness. It is further characterized by excellency in build-up, level-dyeing and wash-off properties and high solubility as well as high exhaustion and fixation percentages. Moreover, it is characterized in that it is hardly affected by changes in dyeing temperature and dyeing bath ratio, so that a dyed product with a stable quality can be obtained. Moreover, the compound of the present invention is characterized in that it is resistant to color change at the time of fixing treatment and resin treatment of dyed product and resistant to the change due to contact with basic substances during storage.
