Description: BLEACH ADDITIVE AND BLEACHING COMPOSITIONS HAVING GLYCINE ANHYDRIDE ACTIVATORS TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to bleach additive and bleaching compositions having glycine anhydride activators, and more particularly to liquid and granular laundry compositions having glycine anhydride activators. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The formulation of bleaching compositions which effectively removes a wide variety of soils and stains from fabrics under wide-ranging usage conditions remains a considerable challenge to the laundry detergent industry. Challenges are also faced by the formulator of automatic dishwashing detergent compositions (ADD's), which are expected to efficiently cleanse and sanitize dishware, often under heavy soil loads. The challenges associated with the formulation of truly effective cleaning and bleaching compositions have been increased by legislation which limits the use of effective ingredients such as phosphate builders in many regions of the world. Most conventional cleaning compositions contain mixtures of various detersive surfactants to remove a wide variety of soils and stains from surfaces. In addition, various detersive enzymes, soil suspending agents, non-phosphorus builders, optical brighteners, and the like may be added to boost overall cleaning performance. Many fully-formulated cleaning compositions contain oxygen bleach, which can be a perborate or percarbonate compound. While quite effective at high temperatures, perborates and percarbonates lose much of their bleaching function at the low to moderate temperatures increasingly favored in consumer product use. Accordingly, various bleach activators such as tetraacetylethylenediamine (TAED) and nonanoyloxybenzenesulfonate (NOBS) have been developed to potentiate the bleaching action of perborate and percarbonate across a wide temperature range. NOBS is particularly effective on "dingy" fabrics. A limitation with activators such as the widely commercialized TAED is that the wash solution or liquor should have a pH of about 10 or higher for best results. Since soils, especially from foods, are often acidic, detergent products are frequently quite alkaline or are buffered sufficiently to maintain a high pH so the bleach activator system can operate effectively throughout the wash. However, this need runs counter to providing milder formulations which could be improved in their compatibility with fabrics, glassware and/or skin. In cleaning operations below pH 10, many of the existing bleach activators lose their effectiveness or undergo competing side reactions which produce ineffective byproducts. The search, therefore, continues for more effective activator materials, especially for use in mildly alkaline washing liquors or with decreased levels of perborate or other sources of hydrogen peroxide. Improved activator materials should be safe, effective, and will preferably be designed to interact with troublesome soils and stains. Various activators have been described in the literature. Many are esoteric and expensive. It has now been determined that certain selected bleach activators are unexpectedly effective in removing soils and stains from fabrics and hard surfaces such as dishes even under low alkaline wash conditions or with decreased levels of hydrogen peroxide. These activators also have advantageously high ratios of rates of perhydrolysis to hydrolysis and of perhydrolysis to diacylperoxide formation. Without being limited by theory, these unusual rate ratios lead to a number of significant benefits for the instant activators, including increased efficiency, avoidance of wasteful byproduct formation in the wash, increased color compatibility, increased enzyme compatibility, and/or better stability on storage. When formulated as described herein, bleaching compositions are provided using the selected bleach activator to remove soils and stains not only from fabrics, but also from dishware in automatic dishwashing compositions, from kitchen and bathroom hard surfaces, and the like, with excellent results. The activators are designed to function well over a wide range of washing or soaking temperatures and are compatible with rubber surfaces, such as those of sump hoses found in some used in European front-loading washing machines. In short, detergent compositions herein provide a substantial advance over those known in the art, as will be seen from the disclosures hereinafter.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention relates to liquid and granular bleach and bleach additive compositions having a glycine anhydride activator (piperazinedione). The glycine anhydride activator according to the present invention is represented by the formula: wherein R\ and R2 can be the same or different and are a substituted or unsubstituted C2-C9 alkanol or aryl residue. The residues R\ and R2 are preferably the same. When the residue is an alkyl residue, R\ and R2 preferably contain from about 2 to about 5 carbon atoms and when the residue is an aryl residue Rj and R2 preferably contain from about 5 to about 9 carbon atoms. Suitable substituents for the alkyl or aryl residues include halo, nitro, nitrilo, alkyl or alkoxy substitutions. Halo substitutions preferably include chloro, bromo or fluoro substituents.

Particularly preferred are those in which both Rj and R2 are a benzyl group as in formula II: or an methyl group as in formula (III): Preferred substitutions include a nitro group: or a chloro group: Alternatively, the glycine anhydride activators accoridng to the present invention may include those where R is a furan or substitued furan residue: (VI) where X is H, NO2 or CI or glycine anhydride activators which contain groups for improving the aqueous solubility, according to the following general structure: where n is from 0 to 50, preferably 0 to 25, most preferably 0 to 10; R3 is a linear or branched alkyl, aryl, or alkaryl or arylalk with C\ to C25, preferably C\ to C12, most preferably Ci to C9, -H, -OH, -OR5, -COOM, and -SO3M, where M is H or alkali metal or alkaline earth metal; R4 is a linear or branched alkylene. arylene, or alkaryl or arylalk with Ci to C25, preferably C\ to Cj2, most preferably C\ to C9; and, R5 is a linear or branched alkyl, aryl, or alkaryl or arylalk with C\ to C25, preferably C i to C 12, most preferably C 1 to C9.

As such, the type and amount of soil encountered may significantly lower than the in-use pH of a detergent formulation. Common body soils, for example, can include sebaceous fatty acids, citric acid, lactic acid and the like as well as triglyceride esters which can hydrolyze in an alkaline aqueous environment to produce additional carboxylic acid species. The response of a detergent formulation to the introduction of acidic components can be gauged by measuring the change in pH of a standard solution of the formulation upon addition of a model acid, acetic acid. The "Soil Level Resistivity" (SLR) of a product is determined as follows: A 3500 ppm product standard solution is prepared by dissolving 3.50 g of product in distilled, deionized water (at 25 °C) to a total weight of 1 kg. The solution is*tirred for 30 minutes and the pH measured immediately thereafter. The measured pH is defined as pH/. After determining pH/, 30 ml of an acetic acid solution (prepared by diluting 1 ml of glacial acetic acid with distilled, deionized water to a total volume of 1000 ml) is added to the product standard solution and the resulting mixture is stirred for 5 minutes, after which a second pH (pH ) is measured. The soil level resistivity, denoted as σ, is defined by the equation where θ = δ 2 /pH , and wherein, when pH; > pH c , δ = pH/ - pH c , and when pH < pH c , δ = 0. Said pH c is the critical pH, given by pH c = pK αpera d + ΔpK c where ΔpK c is the critical ΔpK given by ΔpK c = 100[(l/pK flperacid ) - (IfpHpre/)] wherein pK-αneracid * s ^ e aα » ueous pK α of the peracid species present in the standard solution, and pHp re f is the preferred pH, set equal to the midpoint of the most preferred in-use wash pH range in the present invention of 7.5 - 8.5. When two or more peracid species are present, the lowest pK- fll)erac : J value is used to calculate δ. The soil level resistivity of any particular detergent formulation can be designated based on its σ value as shown in the table below. SLR Designation σ Value high σ>25 moderate 10<σ≤25 low σ≤lO Bleaching Compositions Compositions according to the present invention may include both liquid and granular compositions in both additive or bleaching composition forms. Effective bleach additives herein may comprise the glycine anhydride activators as described above generally without a hydrogen peroxide source, but preferably include detersive surfactants and one or more members selected from the group consisting of low-foaming automatic dishwashing surfactants, ethoxylated nonionic surfactants, bleach stable thickeners, transition-metal chelants, builders, whitening agents (also known as brighteners) and buffering agents. For bleaching compositions according to the present invention the glycine anhydride activators as described above are generally employed in combination with a source of hydrogen peroxide. Levels of bleach activators herein may vary widely, e.g.. from about 0.1% to about 90%. by weight of the composition, although lower levels, e.g., from about 0.1% to about 30%. or from about 0.1% to about 20% by weight of the composition are more typically used. Furthermore, the bleach additive and bleaching compositions of the present invention are preferably formulated to provide in-use pH levels of from about 7 to about 9.5 and more preferably from about 7.5 to about 8.5. In-use pH within this range allows the composition of the present invention to take advantage of the increased activity of glycine anhydride activators within these ranges. By the term "in-use" pH, it is intended to be the pH which exists under consumer use conditions, for example, in the laundry solution in a washing machine after the inclusion of soiled laundry, detergents and the compositions of the present invention. Source of hydrogen peroxide Bleaching compositions according to the present invention also include a source of hydrogen peroxide. A source of hydrogen peroxide herein is any convenient compound or mixture which under consumer use conditions provides an effective amount of hydrogen peroxide. Levels may vary widely and are typically from about 0.1% to about 70%, more typically from about 0.2% to about 40% and even more typically from about 0.5% to about 25%, by weight of the bleaching compositions herein. The source of hydrogen peroxide used herein can be any convenient source, including hydrogen peroxide itself. For example, perborate, e.g., sodium perborate (any hydrate but preferably the mono- or terra-hydrate), sodium carbonate peroxyhydrate or equivalent percarbonate salts, sodium pyrophosphate peroxyhydrate, urea peroxyhydrate, or sodium peroxide can be used herein. Mixtures of any convenient hydrogen peroxide sources can also be used. A preferred percarbonate bleach comprises dry particles having an average particle size in the range from about 500 micrometers to about 1,000 micrometers, not more than about 10% by weight of said particles being smaller than about 200 micrometers and not more than about 10% by weight of said particles being larger than about 1,250 micrometers. Optionally, the percarbonate can be coated with silicate, borate or water-soluble surfactants. Percarbonate is available from various commercial sources such as FMC, Solvay and Tokai Denka. The source of hydrogen peroxide and glycine anhydride activator are typically at a ratio of from about 3:1 to about 20: 1, as expressed on a basis of peroxide:activator in units of moles H2O2 delivered by the hydrogen peroxide source to moles bleach activator. Fully-formulated bleach additive and bleaching compositions, particularly those for use in laundry and automatic dishwashing, typically will also comprise other adjunct ingredients to improve or modify performance. Typical, non-limiting examples of such ingredients are disclosed hereinafter for the convenience of the formulator. Bleach catalysts If desired, the bleaches can be catalyzed by means of a bleach catalyst. Preferred are manganese and cobalt-containing bleach catalysts. One type of metal-containing bleach catalyst is a catalyst system comprising a transition metal cation of defined bleach catalytic activity, such as copper, iron, titanium, ruthenium tungsten, molybdenum, or manganese cations, an auxiliary metal cation having little or no bleach catalytic activity, such as zinc or aluminum cations, and a sequestrate having defined stability constants for the catalytic and auxiliary metal cations, particularly ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, ethylenediaminetetra (methylenephosphonic acid) and water-soluble salts thereof. Such catalysts are disclosed in U.S. Pat. 4,430,243. Other types of bleach catalysts include the manganese-based complexes disclosed in U.S. Pat. 5,246,621 and U.S. Pat. 5,244,594. Preferred examples of theses catalysts include Mn^2( u "0)3(l»4,7-trimethyl-l,4,7-triazacyclononane)2- (PFg)2 ("MnTACN"), Mn πi 2(u-O) j (u-OAc)2( 1 ,4,7-trimethyl- 1 ,4,7-triazacyclono- nane)2-(C104)2, Mn IV 4(u-O)6( 1 ,4,7-triazacyclononane)4-(Clθ4)2, Mn m Mn IV 4(u- O) j (u-O Ac)2( 1 ,4,7-trimethyl- 1 ,4,7-triazacyclononane)2-(Clθ4)3 , and mixtures thereof. See also European patent application publication no. 549,272. Other ligands suitable for use herein include l,5,9-trimethyl-l,5,9-triazacyclododecane, 2- methyl-l,4,7-triazacyclononane, 2-methyl- 1,4,7-triazacyclononane, and mixtures thereof. The bleach catalysts useful in automatic dishwashing compositions and concentrated powder detergent compositions may also be selected as appropriate for the present invention. For examples of other suitable bleach catalysts herein see U.S. Pat. 4,246,612, U.S. Pat. 5,227,084 and WO 95/34628, December 21, 1995, the latter relating to particular types of iron catalyst. See also U.S. Pat. 5,194.416 which teaches mononuclear manganese (IV) complexes such as Mn(l,4,7-trimethyl-l,4,7-triazacyclononane(OCH3)3_(PF6). Still another type of bleach catalyst, as disclosed in U.S. Pat. 5.1 14.606, is a water-soluble complex of manganese (II), (III), and/or (IV) with a ligand which is a non-carboxylate polyhydroxy compound having at least three consecutive C-OH groups. Preferred ligands include sorbitol, iditol, dulsitol, mannitol. xylitol. arabitol, adonitol, meso-erythritol. meso-inositol. lactose, and mixtures thereof. U.S. Pat. 5.114.61 1 teaches another useful bleach catalyst comprising a complex of transition metals, including Mn, Co, Fe, or Cu. with an non-(macro)- cyclic ligand. Preferred ligands include pyridine. pyridazine. pyrimidine, pyrazine, imidazole, pyrazole, and triazole rings. Optionally, said rings may be substituted with substituents such as alkyl, aryl, alkoxy, halide. and nitro. Particularly preferred is the ligand 2.2'-bispyridylamine. Preferred bleach catalysts include Co-. Cu-, Mn-, or Fe- bispyridylmethane and bispyridylamine complexes. Highly preferred catalysts include Co(2,2'-bispyridylamine)Cl2, Di(isothiocyanato)bispyridylamine- cobalt (II), trisdipyridylamine-cobalt(II) perchlorate, Co(2,2- bispyridylamine)2θ2Clθ4, Bis-(2,2'-bispyridylamine) copper(II) perchlorate, tris(di-2-pyridylamine) iron(II) perchlorate, and mixtures thereof. Other bleach catalyst examples include Mn gluconate, Mn(CF3SO3)2, Co(NH3)5Cl, and the binuclear Mn complexed with tetra-N-dentate and bi-N- dentate ligands, including O)2MnIVbipy 2 ]-(ClO 4 )3. The bleach catalysts may also be prepared by combining a water-soluble ligand with a water-soluble manganese salt in aqueous media and concentrating the resulting mixture by evaporation. Any convenient water-soluble salt of manganese can be used herein. Manganese (II), (III), (IV) and/or (V) is readily available on a commercial scale. In some instances, sufficient manganese may be present in the wash liquor, but, in general, it is preferred to detergent composition Mn cations in the compositions to ensure its presence in catalytically-effective amounts. Thus, the sodium salt of the ligand and a member selected from the group consisting of nSO4, Mn(ClO4)2 or MnCl2 (least preferred) are dissolved in water at molar ratios of ligand:Mn salt in the range of about 1 :4 to 4: 1 at neutral or slightly alkaline pH. The water may first be de-oxygenated by boiling and cooled by spraying with nitrogen. The resulting solution is evaporated (under N2, if desired) and the resulting solids are used in the bleaching and detergent compositions herein without further purification. In an alternate mode, the water-soluble manganese source, such as MnSO4, is added to the bleach cleaning composition or to the aqueous bleaching/cleaning bath which comprises the ligand. Some type of complex is apparently formed in situ, and improved bleach performance is secured. In such an in situ process, it is convenient to use a considerable molar excess of the ligand over the manganese, and mole ratios of ligand:Mn typically are 3:1 to 15: 1. The additional ligand also serves to scavenge vagrant metal ions such as iron and copper, thereby protecting the bleach from decomposition. One possible such system is described in European patent application, publication no. 549.271. While the structures of the bleach-catalyzing manganese complexes have not been elucidated, it may be speculated that they comprise chelates or other hydrated coordination complexes which result from the interaction of the carboxyl and nitrogen atoms of the ligand with the manganese cation. Likewise, the oxidation state of the manganese cation during the catalytic process is not known with certainty, and may be the (+11), (+III), (+IV) or (+V) valence state. Due to the ligands' possible six points of attachment to the manganese cation, it may be reasonably speculated that multi-nuclear species and/or "cage" structures may exist in the aqueous bleaching media. Whatever the form of the active Mn ligand species which actually exists, it functions in an apparently catalytic manner to provide improved bleaching performances on stubborn stains such as tea. ketchup, coffee, wine, juice, and the like. Other bleach catalysts are described, for example, in European patent application, publication no. 408,131 (cobalt complex catalysts), European patent applications, publication nos. 384.503, and 306.089 (metallo-porphyrin catalysts), U.S. 4,728,455 (manganese/multidentate ligand catalyst), U.S. 4.711,748 and European patent application, publication no. 224,952, (absorbed manganese on aluminosilicate catalyst), U.S. 4,601,845 (aluminosilicate support with manganese and zinc or magnesium salt), U.S. 4,626,373 (manganese/ligand catalyst), U.S. 4,1 19.557 (ferric complex catalyst), German Pat. specification 2,054,019 (cobalt chelant catalyst) Canadian 866,191 (transition metal-containing salts), U.S. 4,430,243 (chelants with manganese cations and non-catalytic metal cations), and U.S. 4,728,455 (manganese gluconate catalysts).

Bioinorg. Mech.. (1983), 2, pages 1-94. For example, Table 1 at page 17, provides the base hydrolysis rates (designated therein as kQH) f° r cobalt pentaamine catalysts complexed with oxalate ( øH = 2 -5 x lO "4 M-l s-l (25°C)), NCS- (k 0 H= 5 0 x 10'4 M"1 s "1 (25°Q), formate (k 0 H= 5.8 x lO" 4 M- 1 s" 1 (25°C)), and acetate (k 0 H= 9.6 x 10" 4 M" 1 s" 1 (25°C)).

These catalysts may be coprocessed with adjunct materials so as to reduce the color impact if desired for the aesthetics of the product, or to be included in enzyme-containing particles as exemplified hereinafter, or the compositions may be manufactured to contain catalyst "speckles". As a practical matter, and not by way of limitation, the cleaning compositions and cleaning processes herein can be adjusted to provide on the order of at least one part per hundred million of the active bleach catalyst species in the aqueous washing medium, and will preferably provide from about 0.01 ppm to about 25 ppm, more preferably from about 0.05 ppm to about 10 ppm, and most preferably from about 0.1 ppm to about 5 ppm, of the bleach catalyst species in the wash liquor. In order to obtain such levels in the wash liquor of an automatic dishwashing process, typical automatic dishwashing compositions herein will comprise from about 0.0005% to about 0.2%, more preferably from about 0.004% to about 0.08%, of bleach catalyst by weight of the cleaning compositions. Conventional Bleach Activators Compositions of the present invention may also include, in addition to the glycine anhydride activators, a conventional bleach activator. "Conventional bleach activators" herein are any bleach activators which do not respect the above-identified provisions in defining the glycine anhydride activators herein. Numerous conventional bleach activators are known and are optionally included in the instant bleaching compositions. Various nonlimiting examples of such activators are disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,915,854. issued April 10, 1990 to Mao et al. and U.S. Patent 4,412.934. The nonanoyloxybenzene sulfonate (NOBS) and tetraacetyl ethylenediamine (TAED) activators are typical, and mixtures thereof can also be used. See also U.S. 4.634.551 for other typical conventional bleach activators. Known amido-derived bleach activators are those of the formulae: R 1 N(R 5 )C(O)R 2 C(O)L or RlC(O)N(R 5 )R 2 C(O)L wherein R 1 is an alkyl group containing from about 6 to about 12 carbon atoms. R 2 is an alkylene containing from 1 to about 6 carbon atoms, R 3 is H or alkyl. aryl, or alkaryl containing from about 1 to about 10 carbon atoms, and L is any suitable leaving group. Further illustration of optional, conventional bleach activators of the above formulae include (6-octanamido-caproyl)oxybenzenesulfonate, (6- nonanamidocaproyl)oxybenzenesulfonate, (6-decanamido- caproyl)oxybenzenesulfonate, and mixtures thereof as described in U.S. Patent 4,634,551. Another class of conventional bleach activators comprises the benzoxazin-type activators disclosed by Hodge et al in U.S. Patent 4.966.723, issued October 30, 1990. Examples of optional lactam activators include octanoyl caprolactam, 3,5,5-trimethylhexanoyl caprolactam, nonanoyl caprolactam, decanoyl caprolactam, undecenoyl caprolactam, octanoyl valerolactam, decanoyl valerolactam, benzoyl caprolactam, nitrobenzoyl caprolactam, undecenoyl valerolactam, nonanoyl valerolactam, 3,5,5-trimethylhexanoyl valerolactam and mixtures thereof. Bleaching agents other than hydrogen peroxide sources are also known in the art and can be utilized herein as adjunct ingredients. One type of non-oxygen bleaching agent of particular interest includes photoactivated bleaching agents such as the sulfonated zinc and or aluminum phthalocyanines. See U.S. Patent 4.033,718, issued July 5, 1977 to Holcombe et al. If used, detergent compositions will typically contain from about 0.025% to about 1.25%, by weight, of such bleaches, especially sulfonated zinc phthalocyanine. Organic Peroxides, especially Diacyl Peroxides - are extensively illustrated in Kirk Othmer, Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, Vol. 17, John Wiley and Sons, 1982 at pages 27-90 and especially at pages 63-72, all incorporated herein by reference. Suitable organic peroxides, especially diacyl peroxides, are further illustrated in "Initiators for Polymer Production", Akzo Chemicals Inc., Product Catalog, Bulletin No. 88-57, incoφorated by reference. Preferred diacyl peroxides herein whether in pure or formulated form for granule, powder or tablet forms of the bleaching compositions constitute solids at 25°C , e.g., CADET® BPO 78 powder form of dibenzoyl peroxide, from Akzo. Highly preferred organic peroxides, particularly the diacyl peroxides, for such bleaching compositions have melting points above 40°C, preferably above 50°C. Additionally, preferred are the organic peroxides with SADT's (as defined in the foregoing Akzo publication) of 35°C or higher, more preferably 70°C or higher. Nonlimiting examples of diacyl peroxides useful herein include dibenzoyi peroxide, lauroyl peroxide, and dicumyl peroxide. Dibenzoyl peroxide is preferred. In some instances, diacyl peroxides are available in the trade which contain oily substances such as dioctyl phthalate. In general, particularly for automatic dishwashing applications, it is preferred to use diacyl peroxides which are substantially free from oily phthalates since these can form smears on dishes and glassware. Quaternar y Substituted Bleach Activators - The present compositions can optionally further comprise conventional, known quaternary substituted bleach activators (QSBA). QSBA's are further illustrated in U.S. 4,539,130, Sept. 3, 1985 and U.S. Pat. No. 4,283,301. British Pat. 1,382,594, published Feb. 5, 1975, discloses a class of QSBA's optionally suitable for use herein. U.S. 4,818,426 issued Apr. 4., 1989 discloses another class of QSBA's. Also see U.S. 5,093,022 issued March 3, 1992 and U.S. 4,904,406, issued Feb. 27, 1990. Additionally, QSBA's are described in EP 552,812 Al published July 28, 1993, and in EP 540,090 A2, published May 5, 1993. Detersive Surfactant The compositions of the present invention may include a detersive surfactant. The detersive surfactant may comprise from about 1%, to about 99.8%, by weight of the composition depending upon the particular surfactants used and the effects desired. More typical levels comprise from about 5% to about 80% by weight of the composition. The detersive surfactant can be nonionic, anionic, ampholytic, zwitterionic, or cationic. Mixtures of these surfactants can also be used. Preferred detersive surfactants comprise anionic surfactants or mixtures of anionic surfactants with other surfactants, especially nonionic surfactants. Automatic dishwashing compositions typically employ low sudsing detersive surfactants, such as mixed ethyleneoxy/propyleneoxy nonionics. Those detersive surfactants which can act as a pH-reducing ionic nonsoap detersive surfactant include anionic surfactants in at least partially acidic form, semipolar surfactants, zwitterionic surfactants and mixtures of all three. Nonlimiting examples of pH reducing surfactants include the conventional Cj i.Ci g alkylbenzene sulfonates ("LAS") and primary, branched-chain and random Ci 0-C20 alkyl sulfates ("AS"), the CI Q- I S secondary (2.3) alkyl sulfates of the formula CH 3 (CH2) x (CHOSθ3-M + )CH3 and CH 3 (CH2)y(CHOS0 3 -M + ) CH2CH3 where x and (y + 1 ) are integers of at least about 7, preferably at least about 9. and M is a water-solubilizing cation, especially sodium, unsaturated sulfates such as oleyl sulfate, the Cι υ -Cι g alkyl alkoxy sulfates ("AE X S"; especially EO 1-7 ethoxy sulfates), Cιø-Cι g alkyl alkoxy carboxylates (especially the EO 1-5 ethoxycarboxylates), and Ci2-Cιg aipha-sulfonated fatty acid esters. Nonlimiting examples of surfactants useful herein include such as the conventional Ci ø-Cjg alkyl polyglycosides and their corresponding sulfated polyglycosides, C^-Cjg alkyl and alkyl phenol alkoxylates (especially ethoxylates and mixed ethoxy/propoxy), C^-Cjg betaines and sulfobetaines ("sultaines"), C I Q- C j g amine oxides, and the like. Other conventional useful surfactants are listed in standard texts. One class of nonionic surfactant particularly useful in detergent compositions of the present invention is condensates of ethylene oxide with a hydrophobic moiety. The hydrophobic (lipophilic) moiety may be aliphatic or aromatic in nature. The length of the polyoxyethylene group which is condensed with any particular hydrophobic group can be readily adjusted to yield a water-soluble compound having the desired degree of balance between hydrophilic and hydrophobic elements. Especially preferred nonionic surfactants of this type are the C9-C 15 primary alcohol ethoxylates containing 3-8 moles of ethylene oxide per mole of alcohol, particularly the C14-C15 primary alcohols containing 6-8 moles of ethylene oxide per mole of alcohol, the C12-C15 primary alcohols containing 3-5 moles of ethylene oxide per mole of alcohol, and mixtures thereof. Another suitable class of nonionic surfactants comprises sugar derived surfactants such as the polyhydroxy fatty acid amides of the formula: R 2 C(O)N(Rl)Z wherein: R* is H, Cj-Cg hydrocarbyl, 2-hydroxyethyl, 2-hydroxypropyl, or a mixture thereof, preferably C -C alkyl, more preferably C\ or C2 alkyl, most preferably C\ alkyl (i.e., methyl); and R 2 is a C5-C32 hydrocarbyl moiety, preferably straight chain C7-C19 alkyl or alkenyl, more preferably straight chain C9- C17 alkyl or alkenyl. most preferably straight chain C11-C19 alkyl or alkenyl, or mixture thereof; and Z is a polyhydroxyhydrocarbyl moiety having a linear hydrocarbyl chain with at least 2 (in the case of glyceraldehyde) or at least 3 hydroxyls (in the case of other reducing sugars) directly connected to the chain, or an alkoxylated derivative (preferably ethoxylated or propoxylated) thereof. Z prefer¬ ably will be derived from a reducing sugar in a reductive amination reaction; more preferably Z is a glycityl moiety. Suitable reducing sugars include glucose, fructose. maltose, lactose, galactose. mannose. and xylose, as well as glyceraldehyde. As raw materials, high dextrose corn syrup, high fructose corn syrup, and high maltose corn syrup can be utilized as well as the individual sugars listed above. These corn syrups may yield a mix of sugar components for Z. It should be understood that it is by no means intended to exclude other suitable raw materials. Z preferably will be selected from the group consisting of -CH2-(CHOH) n -CH2OH, -CH(CH2OH)- (CHOH) n .!-CH 2 OH, -CH 2 -(CHOH)2(CHOR')(CHOH)-CH 2 OH, where n is an integer from 1 to 5, inclusive, and R' is H or a cyclic mono- or poly- saccharide, and alkoxylated derivatives thereof. Most preferred are glycityls wherein n is 4, particularly -CH -(CHOH)4-CH 2 OH. Ri can be, for example, N-methyl, N-ethyl, N-propyl, N-isopropyl, N-butyl, N-isoburyl, N-2-hydroxy ethyl, or N-2-hydroxy propyl. For highest sudsing, Rl is preferably methyl or hydroxyalkyl. If lower sudsing is desired, Rl is preferably C2- Cg alkyl, especially n-propyl, iso-propyl, n-butyl, iso-butyl, pentyl, hexyl and 2- ethyl hexyl. R 2 -CO-N< can be, for example, cocamide, stearamide, oleamide, lauramide, myristamide, capricamide, palmitamide. tallowamide, etc. Other conventional and useful detersive surfactants are well-known in the art and are listed in standard texts. Builders Detergent builders can optionally be included in the compositions herein to assist in controlling mineral hardness. Inorganic as well as organic builders can be used. Builders are typically used in automatic dishwashing and fabric laundering compositions to assist in the removal of particulate soils. The level of builder can vary widely depending upon the end use of the composition and its desired physical form. When present, the compositions will typically comprise at least about 1% builder. High performance compositions typically comprise from about 10% to about 80%, more typically from about 15% to about 50% by weight, of the detergent builder. Lower or higher levels of builder, however, are not excluded. Inorganic or P-containing detergent builders include, but are not limited to, the alkali metal, ammonium and alkanolammonium salts of polyphosphates (exemplified by the tripolyphosphates, pyrophosphates. and glassy polymeric meta- phosphates), phosphonates, phytic acid, silicates, carbonates (including bicarbonates and sesquicarbonates), sulphates, and aluminosilicates. However, non-phosphate builders are required in some locales. Importantly, the compositions herein function surprisingly well even in the presence of the so-called "weak" builders (as compared with phosphates) such as citrate, or in the so-called "underbuilt" situation that may occur with zeolite or layered silicate builders. See U.S. Pat. 4.605,509 for examples of preferred aluminosilicates. Examples of silicate builders are the alkali metal silicates, particularly those having a SiO2:Na2O ratio in the range 1.6: 1 to 3.2:1 and layered silicates, such as the layered sodium silicates described in U.S. Patent 4,664.839, issued May 12, 1987 to H. P. Rieck. NaSKS-6® is a crystalline layered silicate marketed by Hoechst (commonly abbreviated herein as "SKS-6"). Unlike zeolite builders, the Na SKS-6 silicate builder does not contain aluminum. NaSKS-6 is the δ-Na2Siθ5 moφhology form of layered silicate and can be prepared by methods such as those described in German DE-A-3 ,417,649 and DE-A-3,742,043. SKS-6 is a highly preferred layered silicate for use herein, but other such layered silicates, such as those having the general formula NaMSi x θ2χ+ι -yH2θ wherein M is sodium or hydrogen, x is a number from 1.9 to 4, preferably 2, and y is a number from 0 to 20, preferably 0 can be used herein. Various other layered silicates from Hoechst include NaSKS-5, NaSKS-7 and NaSKS-11, as the α-, β- and γ- forms. Other silicates may also be useful, such as for example magnesium silicate, which can serve as a crispening agent in granular formulations, as a stabilizing agent for oxygen bleaches, and as a component of suds control systems. Silicates useful in automatic dishwashing (ADD) applications include granular hydrous 2-ratio silicates such as BRITESIL® H20 from PQ Coφ., and the commonly sourced BRITESIL® H24 though liquid grades of various silicates can be used when the ADD composition has liquid form. Within safe limits, sodium metasilicate or sodium hydroxide alone or in combination with other silicates may be used in an ADD context to boost wash pH to a desired level. Examples of carbonate builders are the alkaline earth and alkali metal carbonates as disclosed in German Patent Application No. 2,321,001 published on November 15, 1973. Various grades and types of sodium carbonate and sodium sesquicarbonate may be used, certain of which are particularly useful as carriers for other ingredients, especially detersive surfactants. Aluminosilicate builders are useful in the present invention. Aluminosilicate builders are of great importance in most currently marketed heavy duty granular detergent compositions, and can also be a significant builder ingredient in liquid detergent formulations. Aluminosilicate builders include those having the empirical formula: [M z (zAlθ2)y] xH2θ wherein z and y are integers of at least 6. the molar ratio of z to y is in the range from 1.0 to about 0.5, and x is an integer from about 15 to about 264. Useful aluminosilicate ion exchange materials are commercially available. These aluminosilicates can be crystalline or amoφhous in structure and can be naturally-occurring aluminosilicates or synthetically derived. A method for producing aluminosilicate ion exchange materials is disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,985,669. Krummel. et al. issued October 12, 1976. Preferred synthetic crystalline aluminosilicate ion exchange materials useful herein are available under the designations Zeolite A, Zeolite P (B), Zeolite MAP and Zeolite X. In an especially preferred embodiment, the crystalline aluminosilicate ion exchange material has the formula: Nai 2[(AlO2)i2( iO2)i2]-xH2O wherein x is from about 20 to about 30, especially about 27. This material is known as Zeolite A. Dehydrated zeolites (x = 0 - 10) may also be used herein. Preferably, the aluminosilicate has a particle size of about 0.1-10 microns in diameter. As with other builders such as carbonates, it may be desirable to use zeolites in any physical or moφho logical form adapted to promote surfactant carrier function, and appropriate particle sizes may be freely selected by the formulator. Organic detergent builders suitable for the puφoses of the present invention include, but are not restricted to, a wide variety of polycarboxylate compounds. As used herein, "polycarboxylate" refers to compounds having a plurality of carboxylate groups, preferably at least 3 carboxylates. Polycarboxylate builder can generally be added to the composition in acid form, but can also be added in the form of a neutralized salt or "overbased". When utilized in salt form, alkali metals, such as sodium, potassium, and lithium, or alkanolammonium salts are preferred. Included among the polycarboxylate builders are a variety of categories of useful materials. One important category of polycarboxylate builders encompasses the ether polycarboxylates, including oxydisuccinate, as disclosed in Berg, U.S. Patent 3,128,287, issued April 7, 1964, and Lamberti et al, U.S. Patent 3,635,830, issued January 18, 1972. See also "TMS/TDS" builders of U.S. Patent 4,663,071, issued to Bush et al, on May 5, 1987. Suitable ether polycarboxylates also include cyclic compounds, particularly alicyclic compounds, such as those described in U.S. Patents 3,923,679; 3,835,163; 4,158,635; 4,120,874 and 4,102,903. Other useful detergency builders include the ether hydroxypolycarboxylates, copolymers of maleic anhydride with ethylene or vinyl methyl ether, 1, 3, 5- trihydroxy benzene-2, 4, 6-trisulphonic acid, and carboxymethyloxysuccinic acid, the various alkali metal, ammonium and substituted ammonium salts of polyacetic acids such as ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid and nitrilotriacetic acid, as well as polycarboxylates such as mellitic acid, succinic acid, oxydisuccinic acid, polymaleic acid, benzene 1.3,5-tricarboxylic acid, carboxymethyloxysuccinic acid, and soluble salts thereof. Citrate builders, e.g., citric acid and soluble salts thereof (particularly sodium salt), are polycarboxylate builders of particular importance for heavy duty laundry detergent formulations due to their availability from renewable resources and their biodegradability. Citrates can also be used in combination with zeolite and/or layered silicate builders. Oxydisuccinates are also especially useful in such compositions and combinations. Also suitable in the detergent compositions of the present invention are the 3,3-dicarboxy-4-oxa-l,6-hexanedioates and the related compounds disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,566,984, Bush, issued January 28, 1986. Useful succinic acid builders include the C5-C20 alkyl and alkenyl succinic acids and salts thereof. A particularly preferred compound of this type is dodecenylsuccinic acid. Specific examples of succinate builders include: laurylsuccinate, myristylsuccinate, palmitylsuccinate, 2- dodecenylsuccinate (preferred), 2-pentadecenylsuccinate, and the like. Laurylsuccinates are the preferred builders of this group, and are described in European Patent Application 86200690.5/0.200,263, published November 5, 1986. Other suitable polycarboxylates are disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,144,226, Crutchfield et al, issued March 13, 1979 and in U.S. Patent 3,308,067, Diehl, issued March 7, 1967. See also U.S. Patent 3,723,322. Fatty acids, e.g., Ci 2-Cι monocarboxylic acids, can also be incoφorated into the compositions alone, or in combination with the aforesaid builders, especially citrate and/or the succinate builders, to provide additional builder activity. Such use of fatty acids will generally result in a diminution of sudsing, which should be taken into account by the formulator. In situations where phosphorus-based builders can be used, and especially in the formulation of bars used for hand-laundering operations, the various alkali metal phosphates such as the well-known sodium tripolyphosphates, sodium pyrophosphate and sodium orthophosphate can be used. Phosphonate builders such as ethane- 1 -hydroxy- 1,1-diphosphonate and other known phosphonates (see, for example, U.S. Patents 3,159,581; 3,213,030; 3,422,021; 3,400,148 and 3,422,137) can also be used. However, in general, phosphorous-based builders are not desired. Chelating Agents The compositions herein may also optionally contain one or more heavy metal chelating agents, such as diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA). More generally, chelating agents suitable for use herein can be selected from the group consisting of aminocarboxylates, aminophosphonates. polyfunctionally-substituted aromatic chelating agents and mixtures thereof. Without intending to be bound by theory, it is believed that the benefit of these materials is due in part to their exceptional ability to remove heavy metal ions from washing solutions by formation of soluble chelates; other benefits include inorganic film or scale prevention. Other suitable chelating agents for use herein are the commercial DEQUEST® series, and chelants from Monsanto, DuPont. and Nalco, Inc. Aminocarboxylates useful as optional chelating agents include ethylenediaminetetracetates, N-hyαroxyethylethylenediaminetriacetates, nitrilotriacetates, ethylenediamine tetraproprionates, triethylenetetraaminehexacetates, diethylenetriamine-pentaacetates, and ethanoldiglycines, alkali metal, ammonium, and substituted ammonium salts therein and mixtures therein. Aminophosphonates are also suitable for use as chelating agents in the compositions of the invention when at least low levels of total phosphorus are permitted in detergent compositions, and include ethylenediaminetetrakis (methylenephosphonates). Preferably, these aminophosphonates do not contain alkyl or alkenyl groups with more than about 6 carbon atoms. Polyfunctionally-substituted aromatic chelating agents are also useful in the compositions herein. See U.S. Patent 3,812,044, issued May 21, 1974, to Connor et al. Preferred compounds of this type in acid form are dihydroxydisulfobenzenes such as l,2-dihydroxy-3,5-disulfobenzene. A highly preferred biodegradable chelator for use herein is ethylenediamine disuccinate ("EDDS"), especially (but not limited to) the [S,S] iso er as described in U.S. Patent 4,704,233, November 3, 1987, to Hartman and Perkins. The trisodium salt is preferred though other forms, such as magnesium salts, may also be useful. If utilized, especially in ADD compositions, these chelating agents or transition-metal-selective sequestrants will preferably comprise from about 0.001% to about 10%, more preferably from about 0.05% to about 1% by weight of the bleaching compositions herein. pH-Reducing Nonsoap Ingredients The compositions of the present invention may also include pH-reducing nonsoap ingredients. These ingredients may be present at rates of from about 0.1% to about 50% and more preferably at rates of from about 1% to about 25%. pH- reducing nonsoap ingredients are ingredients which are slightly acidic in nature or form acidic species thereby lowering the pH of the solution. The ingredients are typically nonsoap ionic detersive surfactants, chelating agents and polymeric dispersants all of which are described in detail herein. Typical bleaching compositions avoid such ingredients as they reduce the overall pH of the composition. Conventional bleach activators such as TAED are typically only effective in highly alkaline pH environemnts such as pH 10 and higher. Thus, pH- reducing ingredients are avoided. In addition, the compositions of the present invention can be formulated without a buffer system or be buffered at low pH of from about 7 to about 9.5. This is due to the increased activity of glycine anhydride activators at these low pH ranges. Dispersant Polymers The compositions of the present invention may also include from about 0.1% to about 20%. more preferably from about 0.5% to about 10% by weight of the composition of a dispersant polymer. Dispersant polymers are compounds which act as soil suspending agents in the aqueous wash liquor. That is, they act to suspend the soils in solution and prevent the soils from re-depositing on the surfaces of fabrics or dishes. This allows soils to be removed with the wash liquor. Dispersant polymers are well-known and conventional and are available from BASF Coφ. and Rohm & Haas. Typical examples include polyethoxylated amines and acrylic acid/maleic acid copolymers. Polymeric Soil Release Agent Any polymeric soil release agent known to those skilled in the art can optionally be employed in the compositions and processes of this invention. Polymeric soil release agents are characterized by having both hydrophilic segments, to hydrophilize the surface of hydrophobic fibers, such as polyester and nylon, and hydrophobic segments, to deposit upon hydrophobic fibers and remain adhered thereto through completion of washing and rinsing cycles and, thus, serve as an anchor for the hydrophilic segments. This can enable stains occurring subsequent to treatment with the soil release agent to be more easily cleaned in later washing procedures. The polymeric soil release agents useful herein especially include those soil release agents having: (a) one or more nonionic hydrophile components consisting essentially of (i) polyoxyethylene segments with a degree of polymerization of at least 2, or (ii) oxypropylene or polyoxypropylene segments with a degree of polymerization of from 2 to 10. wherein said hydrophile segment does not encompass any oxypropylene unit unless it is bonded to adjacent moieties at each end by ether linkages, or (iii) a mixture of oxyalkylene units comprising oxyethylene and from 1 to about 30 oxypropylene units wherein said mixture contains a sufficient amount of oxyethylene units such that the hydrophile component has hydrophilicity great enough to increase the hydrophilicity of conventional polyester synthetic fiber surfaces upon deposit of the soil release agent on such surface, said hydrophile segments preferably comprising at least about 25% oxyethylene units and more preferably, especially for such components having about 20 to 30 oxypropylene units, at least about 50% oxyethylene units; or (b) one or more hydrophobe components comprising (i) C3 oxyalkylene terephthalate segments, wherein, if said hydrophobe components also comprise oxyethylene terephthalate, the ratio of oxyethylene terephthalate:C3 oxyalkylene terephthalate units is about 2: 1 or lower, (ii) C4-C6 alkylene or oxy C4-C6 alkylene segments, or mixtures therein, (iii) poly (vinyl ester) segments, preferably polyvinyl acetate), having a degree of polymerization of at least 2, or (iv) C1-C4 alkyl ether or C4 hydroxyalkyl ether substituents, or mixtures therein, wherein said substituents are present in the form of C1-C4 alkyl ether or C4 hydroxyalkyl ether cellulose derivatives, or mixtures therein, and such cellulose derivatives are amphiphilic, whereby they have a sufficient level of C1-C4 alkyl ether and or C4 hydroxyalkyl ether units to deposit upon conventional polyester synthetic fiber surfaces and retain a sufficient level of hydroxyls, once adhered to such conventional synthetic fiber surface, to increase fiber surface hydrophilicity, or a combination of (a) and (b). Typically, the polyoxyethylene segments of (a)(i) will have a degree of polymerization of from about 200, although higher levels can be used, preferably from 3 to about 150, more preferably from 6 to about 100. Suitable oxy C4-C6 alkylene hydrophobe segments include, but are not limited to, end-caps of polymeric soil release agents such as MO3S(CH2)nOCH2CH2O-, where M is sodium and n is an integer from 4-6, as disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,721,580, issued January 26, 1988 to Gosselink. Polymeric soil release agents useful in the present invention also include cellulosic derivatives such as hydroxyether cellulosic polymers, copolymeric blocks of ethylene terephthalate or propylene terephthalate with polyethylene oxide or polypropylene oxide terephthalate, and the like. Such agents are commercially available and include hydroxyethers of cellulose such as METHOCEL (Dow). Cellulosic soil release agents for use herein also include those selected from the group consisting of C1 -C4 alkyl and C4 hydroxyalkyl cellulose; see U.S. Patent 4,000,093, issued December 28, 1976 to Nicol. et al. Soil release agents characterized by poly(vinyl ester) hydrophobe segments include graft copolymers of poly( vinyl ester), e.g., Ci -C vinyl esters, preferably poly(vinyl acetate) grafted onto polyalkylene oxide backbones, such as polyethylene oxide backbones. See European Patent Application 0 219 048, published April 22, 1987 by Kud. et al. Commercially available soil release agents of this kind include the SOKALAN type of material, e.g., SOKALAN HP-22, available from BASF (West Germany). One type of preferred soil release agent is a copolymer having random blocks of ethylene terephthalate and polyethylene oxide (PEO) terephthalate. The molecular weight of this polymeric soil release agent is in the range of from about 25,000 to about 55,000. See U.S. Patent 3,959,230 to Hays, issued May 25, 1976 and U.S. Patent 3,893,929 to Basadur issued July 8, 1975. Another preferred polymeric soil release agent is a polyester with repeat units of ethylene terephthalate units containing 10-15% by weight of ethylene terephthalate units together with 90-80% by weight of polyoxyethylene terephthalate units, derived from a polyoxyethylene glycol of average molecular weight 300- 5,000. Examples of this polymer include the commercially available material ZELCON 5126 (from Dupont) and MILEASE T (from ICI). See also U.S. Patent 4,702,857. issued October 27, 1987 to Gosselink. Another preferred polymeric soil release agent is a sulfonated product of a substantially linear ester oligomer comprised of an oligomeric ester backbone of terephthaloyl and oxyalkyleneoxy repeat units and terminal moieties covalently attached to the backbone. These soil release agents are described fully in U.S. Patent 4,968,451, issued November 6, 1990 to J.J. Scheibel and E.P. Gosselink. Other suitable polymeric soil release agents include the terephthalate polyesters of U.S. Patent 4,711,730, issued December 8, 1987 to Gosselink et al, the anionic end- capped oligomeric esters of U.S. Patent 4,721,580, issued January 26, 1988 to Gosselink, and the block polyester oligomeric compounds of U.S. Patent 4,702,857, issued October 27, 1987 to Gosselink. Preferred polymeric soil release agents also include the soil release agents of U.S. Patent 4,877,896, issued October 31, 1989 to Maldonado et al, which discloses anionic, especially sulfoaroyl, end-capped terephthalate esters. Still another preferred soil release agent is an oligomer with repeat units of terephthaloyl units, sulfoisoterephthaloyl units, oxyethyleneoxy and oxy- 1,2- propylene units. The repeat units form the backbone of the oligomer and are preferably terminated with modified isethionate end-caps. A particularly preferred soil release agent of this type comprises about one sulfoisophthaloyl unit, 5 terephthaloyl units, oxyethyleneoxy and oxy-l,2-propyleneoxy units in a ratio of from about 1.7 to about 1.8, and two end-cap units of sodium 2-(2-hydroxyethoxy)- ethanesulfonate. These sulfo-end-capeed soil release agents also comprise from about 0.5% to about 20%. by weight of the oligomer. of a crystalline-reducing stabilizer, preferably selected from the group consisting of xylene sulfonate, cumene sulfonate, toluene sulfonate, and mixtures thereof. If utilized, soil release agents will typically comprise from about 0.01% to about 10.0%, by weight, of the detergent compositions herein, typically from about 0.1% to about 5%, preferably from about 0.2% to about 3.0%. Enzymes Enzymes can be included in the formulations herein for a wide variety of fabric laundering or other cleaning purposes, including removal of protein-based, carbohydrate-based, or triglyceride-based stains, for example, and for the prevention of refugee dye transfer, and for fabric restoration. The enzymes to be incoφorated include proteases, amylases, Upases, cellulases, and peroxidases, as well as mixtures thereof. Other types of enzymes may also be included. They may be of any suitable origin, such as vegetable, animal, bacterial, fungal and yeast origin. However, their choice is governed by several factors such as pH-activity and/or stability optima, thermostability, stability versus active detergents, builders, etc.. In this respect bacterial or fungal enzymes are preferred, such as bacterial amylases and proteases, and fungal cellulases. Enzymes are normally incoφorated at levels sufficient to provide up to about 5 mg by weight, more typically about 0.01 mg to about 3 mg, of active enzyme per gram of the composition. Stated otherwise, the compositions herein will typically comprise from about 0.001% to about 5%, preferably 0.01%-1% by weight of a commercial enzyme preparation. Protease enzymes are usually present in such commercial preparations at levels sufficient to provide from 0.005 to 0.1 Anson units (AU) of activity per gram of composition. Suitable examples of proteases are the subtilisins which are obtained from particular strains of B. subtilis and B. licheniformis. Another suitable protease is obtained from a strain of Bacillus, having maximum activity throughout the pH range of 8-12, developed and sold by Novo Industries A/S as ESPERASE®. The preparation of this enzyme and analogous enzymes is described in British Patent Specification No. 1,243,784 of Novo. Proteolytic enzymes suitable for removing protein-based stains that are commercially available include those sold under the tradenames ALCALASE® and SAVINASE® by Novo Industries A/S (Denmark) and MAXATASE® by International Bio-Synthetics, Inc. (The Netherlands). Other proteases include Protease A (see European Patent Application 130,756, published January 9. 1985) and Protease B (see European Patent Application Serial No. 87303761.8. filed April 28. 1987, and European Patent Application 130.756, Bott et al, published January 9. 1985). An especially preferred protease, referred to as "Protease D" is a carbonyl hydrolase variant having an amino acid sequence not found in nature, which is derived from a precursor carbonyl hydrolase by substituting a different amino acid for a plurality of amino acid residues at a position in said carbonyl hydrolase equivalent to position +76, preferably also in combination with one or more amino acid residue positions equivalent to those selected from the group consisting of +99, +101, +103, +104, +107, +123, +27, +105, +109, +126, +128, +135, +156, +166, +195, +197, +204, +206, +210, +216, +217, +218, +222, +260, +265. and/or +274 according to the numbering of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens subtilisin, as described in the patent applications of A. Baeck, et al, entitled "Protease-Containing Cleaning Compositions" having U.S. Serial No. 08/322,676, and C. Ghosh, et al, "Bleaching Compositions Comprising Protease Enzymes" having U.S. Serial No. 08/322,677, both filed October 13, 1994, and also in WO 95/10615, published April 20, 1995. Amylases suitable herein include, for example, α-amylases described in British Patent Specification No. 1,296,839 (Novo), RAPIDASE®, International Bio- Synthetics, Inc. and TERMAMYL®, Novo Industries. Engineering of enzymes (e.g., stability-enhanced amylase) for improved stability, e.g., oxidative stability is known. See, for example J.Biological Chem., Vol. 260, No. 11, June 1985, pp 6518-6521. "Reference amylase" refers to a conventional amylase inside the scope of the amylase component of this invention. Further, stability-enhanced amylases, also within the invention, are typically compared to these "reference amylases". The present invention, in certain preferred embodiments, can makes use of amylases having improved stability in detergents, especially improved oxidative stability. A convenient absolute stability reference-point against which amylases used in these preferred embodiments of the instant invention represent a measurable improvement is the stability of TERMAMYL® in commercial use in 1993 and available from Novo Nordisk A/S. This TERMAMYL® amylase is a "reference amylase", and is itself well-suited for use in the ADD (Automatic Dishwashing Detergent) compositions of the invention. Even more preferred amylases herein share the characteristic of being "stability -enhanced" amylases, characterized, at a minimum, by a measurable improvement in one or more of: oxidative stability, e.g., to hydrogen peroxide/tetraacetylethylenediamine in buffered solution at pH 9-10; thermal stability, e.g., at common wash temperatures such as about 60°C; or alkaline stability, e.g., at a pH from about 8 to about 1 1 , all measured versus the above- identified reference-amylase. Preferred amylases herein can demonstrate further improvement versus more challenging reference amylases, the latter reference amylases being illustrated by any of the precursor amylases of which preferred amylases within the invention are variants. Such precursor amylases may themselves be natural or be the product of genetic engineering. Stability can be measured using any of the art-disclosed technical tests. See references disclosed in WO 94/02597, itself and documents therein referred to being incoφorated by reference. In general, stability-enhanced amylases respecting the preferred embodiments of the invention can be obtained from Novo Nordisk A/S, or from Genencor International. Preferred amylases herein have the commonality of being derived using site- directed mutagenesis from one or more of the Baccillus amylases, especialy the Bacillus alpha-amylases, regardless of whether one, two or multiple amylase strains are the immediate precursors. As noted, "oxidative stability-enhanced" amylases are preferred for use herein despite the fact that the invention makes them "optional but preferred" materials rather than essential. Such amylases are non-limitingly illustrated by the following: (a) An amylase according to the hereinbefore incorporated WO/94/02597, Novo Nordisk A/S, published Feb. 3, 1994, as further illustrated by a mutant in which substitution is made, using alanine or threonine (preferably threonine), of the methionine residue located in position 197 of the B.licheniformis alpha-amylase, known as TERMAMYL®, or the homologous position variation of a similar parent amylase, such as B. amyloliquefaciens, B.subtilis, or B.stearothermophilus; (b) Stability-enhanced amylases as described by Genencor International in a paper entitled "Oxidatively Resistant alpha-Amylases" presented at the 207th American Chemical Society National Meeting, March 13-17 1994, by C. Mitchinson. Therein it was noted that bleaches in automatic dishwashing detergents inactivate alpha-amylases but that improved oxidative stability amylases have been made by Genencor from B.licheniformis NCIB8061. Methionine (Met) was identified as the most likely residue to be modified. Met was substituted, one at a time, in positions 8,15,197,256.304,366 and 438 leading to specific mutants, particularly important being M197L and M197T with the M197T variant being the most stable expressed variant. Stability was measured in CASCADE® and SUNLIGHT®; (c) Particularly preferred herein are amylase variants having additional modification in the immediate parent available from Novo Nordisk A/S. These amylases include those commercially marketed as DURAMYL by NOVO; bleach- stable amylases are also commercially available from Genencor. Any other oxidative stability-enhanced amylase can be used, for example as derived by site-directed mutagenesis from known chimeric, hybrid or simple mutant parent forms of available amylases. Cellulases usable in, but not preferred, for the present invention include both bacterial or fungal cellulases. Typically, they will have a pH optimum of between 5 and 9.5. Suitable cellulases are disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,435,307, Barbesgoard et al. issued March 6, 1984, which discloses fungal cellulase produced from Humicola insolens and Humicola strain DSM 1800 or a cellulase 212-producing fungus belonging to the genus Aeromonas, and cellulase extracted from the hepatopancreas of a marine mollusk (Dolabella Auricula Solander). Suitable cellulases are also disclosed in GB-A-2.075.028; GB-A-2.095.275 and DE-OS-2.247.832. CAREZYME® (Novo) is especially useful. Suitable lipase enzymes for detergent use include those produced by microorganisms of the Pseudomonas group, such as Pseudomonas stutzeri ATCC 19.154, as disclosed in British Patent 1,372,034. See also lipases in Japanese Patent Application 53,20487, laid open to public inspection on February 24. 1978. This lipase is available from Amano Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd., Nagoya, Japan, under the trade name Lipase P "Amano," hereinafter referred to as "Amano-P." Other commercial lipases include Amano-CES, lipases ex Chromobacter viscosum, e.g. Chromobacter viscosum var. lipolyticum NRRLB 3673, commercially available from Toyo Jozo Co., Tagata, Japan; and further Chromobacter viscosum lipases from U.S. Biochemical Coφ., U.S.A. and Disoynth Co., The Netherlands, and lipases ex Pseudomonas gladioli. The LIPOLASE® enzyme derived from Humicola lanuginosa and commercially available from Novo (see also EPO 341,947) is a preferred lipase for use herein. Another preferred lipase enzyme is the D96L variant of the native Humicola lanuginosa lipase, as described in WO 92/05249 and Research Disclosure No. 35944, March 10, 1994, both published by Novo. In general, lipolytic enzymes are less preferred than amylases and/or proteases for automatic dishwashing embodiments of the present invention. Peroxidase enzymes can be used in combination with oxygen sources, e.g., percarbonate, perborate, persulfate. hydrogen peroxide, etc. They are typically used for "solution bleaching," i.e. to prevent transfer of dyes or pigments removed from substrates during wash operations to other substrates in the wash solution. Peroxidase enzymes are known in the art, and include, for example, horseradish peroxidase, ligninase. and haloperoxidase such as chloro- and bromo-peroxidase. Peroxidase-containing detergent compositions are disclosed, for example, in PCT International Application WO 89/099813, published October 19, 1989. by O. Kirk, assigned to Novo Industries A S. The present invention encompasses peroxidase- free automatic dishwashing composition embodiments. A wide range of enzyme materials and means for their incoφoration into synthetic detergent compositions are also disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,553,139, issued January 5, 1971 to McCarty et al. Enzymes are further disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,101,457, Place et al, issued July 18, 1978, and in U.S. Patent 4,507,219, Hughes, issued March 26, 1985. Enzymes for use in detergents can be stabilized by various techniques. Enzyme stabilization techniques are disclosed and exemplified in U.S. Patent 3,600,319, issued August 17, 1971 to Gedge, et al, and European Patent Application Publication No. 0 199 405, Application No. 86200586.5, published October 29, 1986, Venegas. Enzyme stabilization systems are also described, for example, in U.S. Patent 3,519,570. Brightener Any optical brighteners or other brightening or whitening agents known in the art can be incoφorated at levels typically from about 0.05% to about 1.2%, by weight, into the detergent compositions herein. Commercial optical brighteners which may be useful in the present invention can be classified into subgroups, which include, but are not necessarily limited to, derivatives of stilbene, pyrazoline, coumarin, carboxylic acid, methinecyanines, dibenzothiphene-5,5-dioxide, azoles, 5- and 6-membered-ring heterocycles, and other miscellaneous agents. Examples of such brighteners are disclosed in "The Production and Application of Fluorescent Brightening Agents", M. Zahradnik, Published by John Wiley & Sons, New York (1982). Specific examples of optical brighteners which are useful in the present compositions are those identified in U.S. Patent 4,790,856, issued to Wixon on December 13, 1988. These brighteners include the PHOR WHITE series of brighteners from Verona. Other brighteners disclosed in this reference include: Tinopal UNPA, Tinopal CBS and Tinopal 5BM; available from Ciba-Geigy; Artie White CC and Artie White CWD. available from Hilton-Davis, located in Italy; the 2-(4-stryl-phenyl)-2H-napthol[l,2-d]triazoles; 4,4'-bis- (l,2.3-triazol-2-yl)-stil- benes; 4,4'-bis(stryl)bisphenyls; and the aminocoumarins. Specific examples of these brighteners include 4-methyl-7-diethyl- amino coumarin: l,2-bis(- venzimidazol-2-yl)ethylene; 1 ,3-diphenyl-phrazolines; 2,5-bis(benzoxazol-2- yl)thiophene: 2-stryl-napth-[l ,2-d]oxazole: and 2-(stilbene-4-yl)-2H-naphtho- [1,2- d]triazole. See also U.S. Patent 3,646.015, issued February 29, 1972 to Hamilton. Anionic brighteners are preferred herein. Other Ingredients Usual ingredients can include one or more materials for assisting or enhancing cleaning performance, treatment of the substrate to be cleaned, or to modify the aesthetics of the composition. Usual detersive adjuncts of detergent compositions include the ingredients set forth in U.S. Pat. No. 3,936,537, Baskerville et al. Adjuncts which can also be included in detergent compositions employed in the present invention, in their conventional art-established levels for use (generally from 0% to about 20% of the detergent ingredients, preferably from about 0.5% to about 10%), include other active ingredients such as enzyme stabilizers, color speckles, anti-tarnish and/or anti-corrosion agents, dyes, fillers, optical brighteners, germicides, alkalinity sources, hydrotropes, anti-oxidants, enzyme stabilizing agents, perfumes, dyes, solubilizing agents, clay soil remolval/anti- redeposition agents, carriers, processing aids, pigments, solvents for liquid formulations, fabric softeners, static control agents, solid fillers for bar compositions, etc. Dye transfer inhibiting agents, including polyamine N-oxides such as polyvinylpyridine N-oxide can be used. Dye-transfer-inhibiting agents are further illustrated by polyvinylpyrrolidone and copolymers of N-vinyl imidazole and N-vinyl pyrrolidone. If high sudsing is desired, suds boosters such as the C i n-C j alkanolamides can be incorporated into the compositions, typically at 1%-10% levels. The C10-C14 monoethanol and diethanol amides illustrate a typical class of such suds boosters. Use of such suds boosters with high sudsing adjunct surfactants such as the amine oxides, betaines and sultaines noted above is also advantageous. If desired, soluble magnesium salts such as MgCl2, MgSO4, and the like, can be added at levels of, typically, 0.1%-2%, to provide additional suds and to enhance grease removal performance. Various detersive ingredients employed in the present compositions optionally can be further stabilized by absorbing said ingredients onto a porous hydrophobic substrate, then coating said substrate with a hydrophobic coating. Preferably, the detersive ingredient is admixed with a surfactant before being absorbed into the porous substrate. In use, the detersive ingredient is released from the substrate into the aqueous washing liquor, where it performs its intended detersive function. To illustrate this technique in more detail, a porous hydrophobic silica (trademark SIPERNAT D10, DeGussa) is admixed with a proteolytic enzyme solution containing 3%-5% of C13.15 ethoxylated alcohol (EO 7) nonionic surfactant. Typically, the enzyme/surfactant solution is 2.5 X the weight of silica. The resulting powder is dispersed with stirring in silicone oil (various silicone oil viscosities in the range of 500-12,500 can be used). The resulting silicone oil dispersion is emulsified or otherwise added to the final detergent matrix. By this means, ingredients such as the aforementioned enzymes, bleaches, bleach activators, bleach catalysts, photoactivators, dyes, fluorescers, fabric conditioners and hydrolyzable surfactants can be "protected" for use in detergents, including liquid laundry detergent compositions. Liquid Compositions The present invention comprises both liquid and granular compositions including the aforementioned ingredients. Liquid compositions, including gels, typically contain some water and other fluids as carriers. Low molecular weight primary or secondary alcohols exemplified by methanol, ethanol, propanol, and isopropanol are suitable. Monohydric alcohols are preferred for solubilizing surfactant, but polyols such as those containing from 2 to about 6 carbon atoms and from 2 to about 6 hydroxy groups (e.g., 1,3-propanediol, ethylene glycol, glycerine, and 1 ,2-propanediol) can also be used. The compositions may contain from 5% to 90%, typically 10% to 50% of such carriers. Liquid compositions according to the present invention are formulated acidic to deliver an in-use alkaline pH. Formulation pH is generally from about 2 to about 5 and preferably from about 2.5 to about 4.5. In-use pH is generally from about 7 to about 9.5, preferably from about 7.5 to about 8.5. The use of lower formulation pH provides for more stability of the glycine anhydride activator in solution. Furthermore, when formulating liquid compositions, the source of hydrogen peroxide, if any, is hydrogen peroxide itself. Emulsifying System Liquid compositions of the present invention may also typically include an emulsifying system or a thickening system to stabilize the glycine anhydride activator in solution. The emulsifying or thickening system provides suitable storage length and stability profiles. An emulsifying system is typically employed for activators which are liquids or have been previously disssolved. The emulsifying system is generally present in amounts of from about 0.1% to about 60% by weight of the composition, preferably between about 2 and 30% and more preferably between about 3 and 25% by weight of the composition. The emulsifying system is selected to provide an HLB or hydrophile-lipophile balance that is compatible to the HLB requirement of the glycine anhydride activator as defined above. For the glycine anhydride activators as defined above, the HLB value of the emulsifying system of the present invention will typically range from about 6 to about 16, and more preferably from about 8 to about 14. However, in instances when the glycine anhydride activator is first dissolved in a solvent, the HLB of the emulsifying system will be selected to be compatible to the solvent plus activator system. The emulsifying system of the present invention may be composed of a nonionic surfactant, mixtures of nonionic surfactants or mixtures of anionic and nonionic surfactants. Preferably, the emulsifying system is a nonionic surfactant or mixtures of nonionic surfactants. When employing mixtures of surfactants as the emulsifying system, it is the HLB value for the mixture that is employed as me HLB of the emulsifying system. The hydrophile-lipophile balance is an expression of the relative simultaneous attraction of an emulsifier for water and for oil (or the two phases of the emulsion system being considered). The HLB value for a given compound is generally determined by the chemical composition and extent of ionization. The value may be easily determined in a number of ways, the easiest of which is the chemical composition by various formula's. The various means to calculate HLB are well-known to those of skill in the art and are disclosed, for instance, in Nonionic Surfactants, Physical Chemistry, from Marcel Dekker, Inc, volume 23, 1987, pp 438-456 and Emulsions and Emulsion Technology, part I, volume 6 of the Surfactant Science Series, 1974, pp 264-269. The preferred emulsifiers for use in the emulsifying system of the present invention are alkyl alkoxylate nonionic surfactants such as alkoxylated fatty alcohols. A large number of alkoylated fatty alcohols are commercially available with varying HLB values. The HLB values of such alkoylated nonionic surfactants depend essentially on the chain length of the fatty alcohol, the nature of alkoxylation and the degree of alkoxylation. Nonionic surfactants which are most preferred in the present invention are ethoxylated fatty alcohols. The alcohols can be of natural or petrochemical origin and both branched or straight chained. Suitable ethoxylated fatty alcohol nonionic surfactants for use in the emulsifying system of the present invention are commercially available under the tradenames DOBANOL and NEODOL available from the Shell Oil Company of Houston, Texas. Thickening Svstem The liquid compositions of the present invention may also include a thickening system to suspend the glycine anhydride activator in solution. Thickening systems are typically employed for activators which are solids or in particle form. Particle sizes of the activator generally range from about 0.1 to about 1.000 microns, preferably from about 1 to about 500 microns, an more preferably from about 1 to about 250 microns. The thickening system then comprises a rheology capable of suspending the particulate activator in the liquid composition. Those skilled in the art will realize that, in the simplest case, a rheology capable of suspending solids is simply a viscosity sufficient to prevent settling, creaming, floccing, etc., of the particles being suspended. The required viscosity will vary according to particle size but should generally be greater than about 300 cps (measured at 10 φm) preferably greater than 600 cps and more preferably still greater than 1000 cps. It will further be realized by those skilled in the art the rheology will preferably be that of a non-Newtonian, shear thinning fluid. Such fluids exhibit very high viscosities at low shear with viscosity reducing as shear is increased e.g. a shear thinning fluid may have a viscosity of 2000 cps at 10 φm but only 500 cps at 100 φm. Such shear thinning systems may be obtained in several ways including the use of associative polymeric thickeners, emulsions and specific surfactant systems. Coating Various detersive ingredients employed in the liquid compositions of the present nvention optionally can be further stabilized by absorbing the ingredients onto a porous hydrophobic substrate, then coating the substrate with a hydrophobic coating. Preferably, the detersive ingredient is admixed with a surfactant before being adsorbed into the aqueous washing liquor, where it performs its intended detersive function. To illustrate this technique in more detail, a porous hydrophobic silica (trademark SIPERNAT®D10, Degussa) is admixed with a proteolytic enzyme solution containing 3%-5% of C 13.15 ethoxylated alcohol (EO 7) nonionic surfactant. Typically, the enzyme/surfactant solution is 2.5X the weight of silica. The resulting powder is dispersed with stirring in silicone oil (various silicone oil viscosities in the range of 500-12,500 can be used). The resulting silicone oil dispersion is emulsified or otherwise added to the final detergent matrix. By this means, ingredients such as the aforementioned enzymes, bleaches, bleach activators. bleach catalysts, photoactivators, dyes, fluorescers. fabric conditioners and hydrolyzable surfactants can be "protected" for use in detergents, including liquid laundry detergent compositions. Granular Compositions The bleaching and bleach additive composition of the present invention can be used in both low density (below 550 grams/liter) and high density granular compositions in which the density of the granule is at least 550 grams/liter. Low density compositions can be prepared by standard spray-drying processes. Various means and equipment are available to prepare high density compositions. Current commercial practice in the field employs spray-drying towers to manufacture compositions which have a density less than about 500 g/1. Accordingly, if spray-drying is used as part of the overall process, the resulting spray-dried particles must be further densified using the means and equipment described hereinafter. In the alternative, the formulator can eliminate spray-drying by using mixing, densifying and granulating equipment that is commercially available. The following is a nonlimiting description of such equipment suitable for use herein. High speed mixer/densifiers can be used in the present process. For example, the device marketed under the trademark "Lodige CB30" Recycler comprises a static cylindrical mixing drum having a central rotating shaft with mixing/cutting blades mounted thereon. Other such apparatus includes the devices marketed under the trademark "Shugi Granulator" and under the trademark "Drais K_TTP 80." Equipment such as that marketed under the trademark "Lodige KM600 Mixer" can be used for further densification. In one mode of operation, the compositions are prepared and densified by passage through two mixer and densifier machines operating in sequence. Thus, the desired compositional ingredients can be admixed and passed through a Lodige mixture using residence times of 0.1 to 1.0 minutes then passed through a second Lodige mixer using residence times of 1 minute to 5 minutes. In another mode, the aqueous slurry comprising the desired formulation ingredients is sprayed into a fluidized bed of particulates. The resulting particles can be further densified by passage through a Lodige apparatus, as noted above, the delivery particles are mixed with the composition in the Lodige apparatus. The final density of the particles herein can be measured by a variety of simple techniques, which typically involve dispensing a quantity of the granular composition into a container of known volume, measuring the weight of the composition and reporting the density in grams/liter. Once the low or high density "base" composition is prepared, the agglomerated delivery system is added thereto by any suitable dry-mixing operation. Bleaching compositions in granular form typically limit water content, for example, to less than about 7% free water, for best storage stability. The bleaching compositions of the present invention are ideally suited for use in laundry applications and automatic dishwashing compositions. Bleach additive compositions are intended to be employed in conjunction with a source of hydrogen peroxide such as a bleaching composition or a bleaching composition including a detergent, e.g. TIDE® WITH BLEACH. Accordingly, the present invention includes a method for laundering a soiled fabric. The method includes contacting a fabric to be laundered with an aqueous laundry liquor. The fabric may comprise most any fabric capable of being laundered in normal consumer use conditions. The laundry liquor includes the added bleach additive or bleaching composition containing a glycine anhydride activator as fully described above. The laundry liquor may also include any of the above described additives to the compositions such as hydrogen peroxide source, detersive surfactants, chelates, and detersive enzymes. The solution preferably has a pH of from about 7 to about 9.5. The compositions are preferably employed at concentrations of at least about 50 ppm and typically from about 1,000 to about 10,000 ppm in solution. The water temperatures preferably range from about 25°C to about 50°C. The water to fabric ratio is preferably from about 1 : 1 to about 15: 1 Methods for washing soiled dishes such as tableware, also involve contacting the soiled dishes with an aqueous dishwashing liquor. The dishwashing liquor includes the added bleach additive or bleaching composition containing a glycine anhydride activator as fully described above. The dishwashing liquor may also include any of the above described additives to the compositions such as hydrogen peroxide source, detersive surfactants, chelates, and detersive enzymes. The solution preferably has a pH of from about 7 to about 9.5. The compositions are preferably employed at concentrations of at least about 50 ppm and typically from about 1,000 to about 10,000 ppm in solution. The water temperatures preferably range from about 25°C to about 50°C. The present invention will now be described by reference to the following examples. Of course, one of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that the present invention is not limited to the specific examples herein described or the ingredients and steps contained therein, but rather, may be practiced according to the broader aspects of the disclosure. EXAMPLE I Preparation of l ,4-Dibenzoyl-2,5-piperazinedione: All glassware is dried thoroughly, and the reaction kept under an inert atmosphere (argon) at all times. With stirring, 10.00 g (87.6 mmol) of 2,5-piperazinedione (Aldrich) and 26.9 mL (192.8 mmol) of triethylamine (Aldrich) are added to 300 mL fresh 1,4-dioxane (Aldrich, A.C.S. Reagent Grade) in a three-neck round bottom flask equipped with a reflux condenser, addition funnel, and magnetic stirrer. A solution of 21.1 mL (175.3 mmol) of benzoyl chloride (Aldrich) in 50 mL 1,4- dioxane is carefully added over a period of 15 min, and the resulting reaction mixture is heated to reflux and stirred for 16 h. The reaction is then cooled to room temperature, diluted with 800 mL of chloroform, and subsequently extracted twice with 250 mL of 5% HCl. The organic layer is concentrated to about 300 mL and poured into hexanes. The crystalline precipitate is filtered, rinsed with hexanes, and dried under high vacuum to yield 24.08 g (85%) of l,4-dibenzoyl-2,5- piperazinedione as a white, crystalline solid. EXAMPLE II Preparation of l,4-Di(4-nitrobenzoyl)-2,5-piperazinedione: Synthesized as for 1 ,4-dibenzoyl-2,5-piperazinedione in EXAMPLE I using 4- nitrobenzoyl chloride in place of benzoyl chloride. EXAMPLE III Preparation of l,4-Di(3-chlorobenzoyl)-2,5-piperazinedione: Synthesized as for l,4-dibenzoyl-2.5-piperazinedione in EXAMPLE I using 3- chlorobenzoyl chloride in place of benzoyl chloride. EXAMPLE IV Preparation of l,4-Diacteyl-2,5-piperazinedione: Synthesized as for 1 ,4-dibenzoyl-2.5-piperazinedione in EXAMPLE I using acetyl chloride or acetic anhydride in place of benzoyl chloride.

"High soil" conditions are achieved in either of two possible modes. In a first mode, consumer bundles of heavily soiled fabrics can be used, the soil level being sufficiently high that when a portion of the composition is dissolved in the presence of tap-water together with the soiled fabrics in a U.S. domestic washing- machine, the pH of the wash water is in the range from about pH 6.5 to about 9.5, more typically from about 7 to about 9.5. Alternatively, it is convenient for testing puφoses when heavily soiled fabrics are unavailable, to use the following procedure: the pH of the wash bath after dissolution of product and addition of the test fabrics is adjusted using aqueous HCl such that the pH is in the range from about pH 6.5 to about 9.5. The test fabrics are a lightly soiled or clean bundle of consumer fabrics; additional test swatches of fabric comprising bleachable stains are typically added. In general in the present example, the product usage is low, typically about 1000 ppm concentration of product in the wash.
