Description: REACTIVE DYES CONTAINING A PERMANENT QUATERNARY AMMONIUM GROUP This invention is on the field of fiber-reactive dyes suitable for the use in low and no salt dyebaths. Fiber reactive dyes form a chemical bond with the fiber being colored, and because of this are generally considered to possess excellent fastness properties. The present invention can be used with several classes of fiber reactive dyes. The largest class of fiber reactive dyes are azo dyes which containing one or more azo groups (N=N). The fiber reactive azo dyes are generally prepared by the chemical reaction, between a diazo component and a coupling component, referred to as a coupling reaction. Closely related to the metal complexes of azo dyes are the formazans, which are conveniently synthesized from aryl hydrazones by azo coupling with diazonium salts. Copper complexes of formazans are technically the most important class of fiber- reactive formazans. Phthalocyanines are a group of green and blue dyes formed by condensation polymerization of four molecules of phthalonitrile with one atom of a metal, e.g. copper phthalocyanine. Phthalocyanines are also available in a number of shades from deep blue-green to a bright green with only a slight blue tone. Triphenodioxazine dyes yield brilliant blue dyeings with high color strength. The dyes are obtained from the condensation of aromatic amines with tetrachlorobenzoquinone in the presence of a base. The condensation products are then cyclized in a solvent or acidic medium in the presence of an oxidizing agent. Fiber reactive dyes contain one or more groups which, in the dyeing process, leave the dye molecule creating leaving a reactive site, so that the dye can bond with the substrate which is being dyed. The group which leaves the dye during the dyeing process is called a leaving group. Thus, a leaving group is defined as a moiety that leaves the dye molecule during the dyeing process, creating a reactive site. In most cases, these leaving groups have been halogens such as chlorine or fluorine, however a quaternary ammonium also works as a leaving group. While dyes are known that incorporate the quaternary ammonium, see, e.g. EPO Patent Application Publication No. 0 516 298 A1 , these substituents have been limited to the leaving group. Competitive and environmental concerns have lead to increased requirements being imposed on the use of reactive dyestuffs. Today, not only the quality of dyed product, but also the efficiency and environmental impact of the dyeing process have come under scrutiny. Dye properties of interest include: fastness, the ability of a color to remain unchanged when exposed to a specified agency including light, rubbing and washing, the ability of a color to remain unchanged when exposed to abrasion and/or soaps and detergents; and fixing, a process of setting a dye. One measure of the intensity of a color is the color density unit (CDU). With fiber reactive dyes it has been possible to increase the intensity of the color obtained by a dyebath by addition of salt. However, the use of salt increase the cost of the dyebath, and increases the toxicity of the dyebath. Discharge from a spent saltcontaining dyebath has the potential to harm beneficial bacteria in rivers and lakes. Therefore the search continues for a new fiber reactive dye which possess good color fastness, good color yield, and are environmentally advantageous in that they may be used with low or no salt dyebaths. With the present invention fiber reactive dyes have been found which have a quaternary ammonium group as a permanent substituent of said fiber reactive dye component, the quaternary ammonium group not being a leaving group, which quaternary ammonium groups facilitates the use of the dyes in low- or no-salt dyebaths.

Of the dyes of formula ( 1 3B), those corresponding to the general formula (1 3Ba) are preferred in which R B and M are defined as above and R c is sulfo or a group -S0 2 -Y defined above, with the proviso that R B and R c are not both a group -S0 2 -Y. A particularly preferred dye of the invention is a dye of the general formula (14) (14) where the quaternary ammonium group is bonded in the meta- or para-position relative to the amino group and M is a hydrogen or an alkali metal. The quaternary ammonium substituent of formula (1) may be incorporated into the dye molecule by various methods, e.g. by incorporating into a primary amine which is diazotized in the usual manner and coupled with a benzene or naphthalene coupling component to form the dye molecule or by condensing a quaternary ammonium substituted amine with a halo-s-triazine component of the dye molecule Fb. However, it will be apparent to the skilled worker that the order of reaction may be modified, for example, the quaternary ammonium substituted amine may first be condensed with a s-halotriazine, followed by a sequential condensation of the Fb- moiety. It will also be apparent to the skilled worker that in the case in which Fb represents an azo dye moiety, the quaternary substituted amine may first be incorporated into the coupling component followed by coupling with a desired diazonium compound to afford an quaternary amine containing dyestuff. The dyes of the invention provide improved color yield, excellent fastness, and are environmentally advantageous in that they may be used with low salt content dyebaths. Quaternary ammonium compounds can be prepared by various methods. The quaternary ammonium substituent may be incorporated into an aromatic or aliphatic system by alkylation with an alkyl sulfonate (preferably methyl or ethyl sulfate) of an aromatic diamine, where one amine is protected with an acyl group such as acetyl. After the addition of the quaternary ammonium substituent, quaternization, the compound is deprotected (deacylation) and is then incorporated into the fiber- reactive dye molecule through condensation with a 2,4,6-trihaiogenated 1 ,3,5- triazine. Another method of quaternization involves incorporating the quaternary ammonium group into an aromatic system by alkylation with an alkyl sulfonate (preferably methyl or ethyl sulfate) of a nitroaniiine. After quaternization of the amino group, the nitro substituent is reduced by catalytic hydrogenation to an amino group, which may be incorporated into the fiber-reactive dyestuff as mentioned above. In addition to the above methods, exhaustive alkylation may be achieved with an alkyl halide, e.g. methyl or ethyl iodide. Hydroxaikyl quaternary salts may be produced by exhaustive hydroxyalkylation of a primary amine with ethylene oxide or ethylene carbonate. It will be apparent to the skilled worker that exhaustive alkylation can be achieved with all of the above described methods by starting with the desired secondary or tertiary amine. It will also be apparent to the skilled worker that mixed quaternary ammonium salts varying ratios can be produced by any of the above methods by reacting the amine with mixtures of desired alkylating agents, i.e. dimethyl sulfate and diethyl sulfate. The Examples which follow serve to illustrate the invention. The parts are parts by weight and the percentages are percentages by weight unless stated otherwise. The relationship between parts by weight and parts by volume is that of the kilogram to the liter. The compounds described by way of formulae in the Examples are indicated in the form of the free acid; in general they are prepared and isolated in the form of their alkali metal salts, such as lithium, sodium or potassium salts, and are used for dyeing in the form of their salts. Similarly, the starting compounds and components stated in the form of the free acid in the subsequent Examples, especially the Tabular Examples, can be employed in the synthesis as they are or in the form of their salts, preferably alkali metal salts. Example A 3-Aminobenzenetrimethylammonium sulfate was prepared by adding 504 parts of dimethyl sulfate to a cold, aqueous solution of 186 parts 3-aminoacetanilide hydrochloride at neutral pH. The product is deacetylated by adding 100 parts of concentrated sulfuric acid and heating at 90 to 100°C for 2-4 h. An almost quantitative yield of 3-aminobenzenetrimethylammonium sulfate was obtained. The purity of the product was greater than 95%( by HPLC area). Example B 3-Aminobenzenetriethylammonium sulfate obtained in a manner analogous to the above, except that diethyl sulfate replaced the dimethyl sulfate. Example 1 H-acid (62.8 parts) is condensed with a suspension of 36.8 parts cyanuric chloride in water at 0-10 °C and pH 1.5-3.0. Then, 1-aminobenzene-4-(β-sulfatoethyl)-sulfone (55.4 parts) is suspended in dilute, sulfuric acid and diazotized with 34 parts of 40% sodium nitrite at 8-12 °C. The mixture is subsequently stirred for one hour and excess nitrous acid is destroyed by means of amidosulfonic acid. This resulting diazonium salt suspension is coupled with the above condensation product of H-acid and cyanuric chloride. The final dyestuff is obtained by condensation of 49.6 parts 3- aminobenzenetrimethyl-ammonium sulfate on the coupling product. The dyestuff is isolated by spray-drying. It has very good dyestuff properties and dyes polyamide fiber materials, such as , in particular, wool, and cellulose fiber materials in clear red shades with very good fastness properties to wet processing, such as, for example, an excellent fastness to washing, as well as high resistance to steam and very good fastness to rubbing, and also very fast in respect of its bleeding onto or soiling adjacent fabric.
