Description: Benzophenone UV-Absorbers with Heterocyclic Substituents The present invention relates to new compounds and, in particular to new benzophenone UV-absorbers with heterocyclic substituents having excellent spectral characteristics, good resistance to UV light and excellent thermal stability, and to the use of the new compounds as UV-absorbers. If it is desired to increase the light stability of an organic material, especially a coating, a light stabilizer is usually added. A class of light stabilizers which is very frequently employed comprises the UV absorbers, which protect the material by absorbing the harmful radiation via chromophores. An important group of UV absorbers is the benzophenones, which are described, e.g., in German layed-open patent application 2,230,301. A new group of benzophenone compounds has now been found which have improved absorption spectrum characteristics, superior resistance to exposure to UV light and excellent thermal stability, relative to known benzophenone compounds. According to the present invention, there are provided compounds having the formula: wherein R t represents hydrogen, C Caoalkyl which is unsubstituted or substituted by one or more ammonium, mono-, di-, tri or tetra-CrC^alkylammonium groups or by one or more sulphonium groups or represents an aralkyl residue having a total of from 7 to 10 carbon atoms and, in which, the aryl group is unsubstituted or substituted by CrC 4 alkyl, C C 4 alkoxy or halogen and Z is a group selected from R 2 , R 3 and R 4 , independently, representing hydrogen, CrC 4 alkyl, C r C alkoxy, halogen, or phenyl which is unsubstituted or substituted by. C C 4 alkyl, CrC alkoxy or halogen, Preferred compounds according to the invention are those having the formula (1) in which Z is and also compounds of formula (1) in which Z is More preferred compounds of formula (1 ) are those in which Ri represents hydrogen, CrC 2 oalkyl or an aralkyl residue having a total of from 7 to 10 carbon atoms, those in which Ri represents hydrogen, C C 10 alkyl, a benzyl or a phenethyl residue being especially preferred. Further preferred compounds of formula (1) are those in which R 2 represents hydrogen or the group NHCOCrC^lkyl and R 3 and/or R represent hydrogen, Cι-C 4 alkyl, C C 4 alkoxy, halogen, or phenyl which is unsubstituted or substituted by. Cι-C 4 alkyl, C C alkoxy or halogen, R 3 and/or R 4 more particularly representing hydrogen, C C 4 alkyl or phenyl which is unsubstituted or substituted by. Cι-C 4 alkyl, C C alkoxy or halogen, Compounds of formula (1) which are of especial interest are those in which Z is Ri represents hydrogen, C r C 10 alkyl or benzyl, especially hydrogen, R 3 represents hydrogen or Cι-C 4 alkyl and R represents phenyl or chlorophenyl, in addition to the compounds of formula (1) in which Z is Ri represents hydrogen, CrC 10 alkyl or benzyl, especially hydrogen. When, R 2 , R and/or R 4 is halogen, such halogen substituents are fluorine, bromine, iodine or, especially, chlorine substituents. Within the scope of the definitions of substituents Ri, R 2) R 3 and/or R , C r C 20 alkyl groups may be branched or unbranched such as methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, sec- butyl, isobutyl, t-butyl, 2-ethylbutyl, n-pentyl, isopentyl, 1-methylpentyl, 1 ,3-dimethylbutyl, n- hexyl, 1 -methylhexyl, n-heptyl, isoheptyl, 1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl, 1 -methylheptyl, 3- methylheptyl, n-octyl, 2-ethylhexyl, 1,1 ,3-trimethylhexyl, 1,1 ,3,3-tetramethylpentyl, n-nonyl, n- decyl, n-undecyl, 1-methylundecyl, n-dodecyl, 1 ,1,3,3,5,5-hexamethylhexyl, n-tridecyl, n- tetradecyl, n-pentadecyl, n-hexadecyl, n-heptadecyl, n-octadecyl and n-eicosyl.

When R T represents an aralkyl group having a total of between 7 and 10 carbon atoms, this may, for example, be benzyl, phenethyl, phenyl propyl or phenyl butyl A further aspect of the invention is a process for the preparation of the novel compounds of formula (1), characterized by reacting an acid chloride of the formula with a compound of the formula in an inert solvent and in the presence of a Friedel-Crafts catalyst, whereby Ri and Z are as previously defined. Suitable inert solvents are preferably organic solvents which are inert under the reaction conditions employed such as, for example, carbon disulphide, carbon tetrachloride, chloroform, methylene chloride, nitrobenzene or, especially, dichloroethane. Suitable Friedel-Crafts catalysts are, for example, Lewis acids such as tin tetrachloride, boron trifluoride or, especially, aluminium chloride or protonic acids such as polyphosphoric acid or anhydrous hydrogen fluoride. The novel benzophenone compounds are very good UV absorbers and are therefore useful as stabilizers for organic polymers, especially coating materials, against damage thereto by light and as light stabilizers for textile fibre materials. Particular advantages of the novel compounds include their surprisingly high absorption in the 300 to 400 nm region of the electromagnetic spectrum. Material stabilized with the compounds according to the invention features outstanding resistance to the effects of weathering and light, and outstanding photostability of the incorporated stabilizer. The materials to be stabilized can be, for example, oils, fats, waxes, cosmetics or biocides. A particularly interesting application is in polymeric materials which are present in plastics, rubbers, paints and other coating materials, photographic material or adhesives.

Polyolefins, i.e. polymers of monoolefins exemplified in the preceding paragraph, in particular polyethylene and polypropylene, can be prepared by different, and especially by the following, methods: a) radical polymerization (normally under high pressure and at elevated temperature); or b) catalytic polymerization using a catalyst that normally contains one or more metals of group IVb, Vb, Vlb or VIII of the Periodic Table. These metals usually have one or more ligands, such as oxides, halides, alcoholates, esters, ethers, amines, alkyls, alkenyls and/or aryls that may be either π- or σ-coordinated. These metal complexes may be in the free form or fixed on substrates, for example on activated magnesium chloride, titanium(lll) chloride, alumina or silicon oxide. These catalysts may be soluble or insoluble in the polymerization medium. The catalysts can be activated by themselves in the polymerization or further activators may be used, for example metal alkyls, metal hydrides, metal alkyl halides, metal alkyl oxides or metal alkyloxanes, the metals being elements of groups la, I la and/or Ilia of the Periodic Table.

The type and amount of the further stabilizers added is determined by the type of substrate to be stabilized and on its intended use; frequently, from 0.1 to 5% by weight, based on the polymer to be stabilized, are used. The novel stabilizers can with particular advantage be employed in compositions in which component (A) is a synthetic organic polymer, especially a thermoplastic polymer, a binder for coatings, for example paints, or a photographic material. Examples of suitable thermoplastic polymers are polyolefins and polymers comprising heteroatoms in the main chain. Preference is also given to compositions in which component (A) is a thermoplastic polymer comprising nitrogen, oxygen and/or sulphur, especially nitrogen or oxygen, in the main chain. Also of interest are compositions in which component (A) is a polyolefin, for example polyethylene or polypropylene. Incorporation into the organic polymers, for example into the synthetic organic and, in particular, thermoplastic polymers, can be carried out by addition of the novel triphenyl- substituted triazine compound and any further additives by the methods conventional in the art. The incorporation can expediently be made before or during shaping, for example by mixing the pulverulent components or by adding the stabilizer to the melt or solution of the polymer, or by applying the dissolved or dispersed compounds to the polymer, with or without subsequent evaporation of the solvent. Elastomers can also be stabilized as latices. Another way of incorporating the novel mixtures into polymers comprises adding them before or during polymerization of the corresponding monomers or before crosslinking. The novel compounds can also be added to the plastics to be stabilized in the form of a master batch which comprises these compounds, for example, in a concentration of from 2.5 to 25 % by weight. The novel compounds can expediently be incorporated by the following methods: - as an emulsion or dispersion (for example to latices or emulsion polymers) - as a dry mix during mixing of additional components or polymer mixtures - by direct addition to the processing equipment (for example extruders, internal mixers, etc.) - as a solution or melt. The stabilized polymer compositions obtained in this way can be converted into shaped articles, for example fibres, films, tapes, sheets, sandwich boards, containers, pipes and other profiles, by conventional methods, for example hot pressing, spinning, extrusion or injection moulding. The invention therefore additionally relates to the use of the polymer composition according to the invention for the production of a shaped article. Use in multilayer systems is also of interest. In this case, a novel polymer composition having a relatively high content of novel stabilizer, for example, 5 - 15 % by weight, is applied in a thin film (10 - 100 μm) to a shaped article made from a polymer containing little or no stabilizer of the formula (1). Application may be made at the same time as the shaping of the base structure, for example by coextrusion. However, application can also be made to the ready-formed base structure, for example by lamination with a film or by coating with a solution. The outer layer or layers of the finished article have the function of a UV filter, which protects the interior of the article from UV light. The outer layer preferably contains 5 - 15 % by weight, in particular 5 - 10 % by weight, of at least one compound of the formula (1). The polymers stabilized in this way are notable for high weathering resistance, especially for high resistance to UV light. This enables them to retain their mechanical properties and their colour and gloss for a long time even when used outside. Likewise of particular interest is the use of the novel compound of the formula (1 ) as stabilizers for coatings, for example for paints. The invention therefore also relates to those compositions whose component (A) is a film-forming binder for coatings. The novel coating composition preferably comprises 0.01 - 10 parts by weight of (B), in particular 0.05 - 10 parts by weight of (B), especially 0.1 - 5 parts by weight of (B), per 100 parts by weight of solid binder (A). Multilayer systems are possible here as well, where the concentration of the novel stabilizer (component (B)) in the outer layer can be relatively high, for example from 1 to 15 parts by weight of (B), in particular 3 - 10 parts by weight of (B), per 100 parts by weight of solid binder (A). The use of the novel stabilizer in coatings is accompanied by the additional advantage that it prevents delamination, i.e. the flaking-off of the coating from the substrate. This advantage is particularly important in the case of metallic substrates, including multilayer systems on metallic substrates. The binder (component (A)) can in principle be any binder which is customary in industry, for example those described in Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, 5th Edition, Vol. A18, pp. 368-426, VCH, Weinheim 1991. In general, it is a film-forming binder based on a thermoplastic or thermosetting resin, predominantly on a thermosetting resin. Examples thereof are alkyd, acrylic, polyester, phenolic, melamine, epoxy and polyurethane resins and mixtures thereof. Component (A) can be a cold-curable or hot-curable binder; the addition of a curing catalyst may be advantageous. Suitable catalysts which accelerate curing of the binder are described, for example, in Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, Vol. A18, p.469, VCH Verlagsgesellschaft, Weinheim 1991. Preference is given to coating compositions in which component (A) is a binder comprising a functional acrylate resin and a crosslinking agent. Examples of coating compositions containing specific binders are: 1. paints based on cold- or hot-crosslinkable alkyd, acrylate, polyester, epoxy or melamine resins or mixtures of such resins, if desired with addition of a curing catalyst; 2. two-component polyurethane paints based on hydroxyl-containing acrylate, polyester or polyether resins and aliphatic or aromatic isocyanates, isocyanurates or polyisocyanates; 3. one-component polyurethane paints based on blocked isocyanates, isocyanurates or polyisocyanates which are deblocked during baking; 4. one-component polyurethane paints based on aliphatic or aromatic urethanes or polyurethanes and hydroxyl group containing acrylate, polyester or polyether resins; 5. one-component polyurethane paints based on aliphatic or aromatic urethaneacrylates or polyurethaneacrylates having free amino groups within the urethane strukture and melamine resins or polyether resins, if necessary with curing catalyst; 6. two-component paints based on (poly)ketimines and aliphatic or aromatic isocyanates, isocyanurates or polyisocyanates; 7. two-component paints based on (poly)ketimines and an unsaturated acrylate resin or a polyacetoacetate resin or a methacrylamidoglycolate methyl ester; 8. two-component paints based on carboxyl- or amino-containing polyacrylates and polyepoxides; 9. two-component paints based on acrylate resins containing anhydride groups and on a polyhydroxy or polyamino component; 10. two-component paints based on acrylate-containing anhydrides and polyepoxides; 11. two-component paints based on (poly)oxazolines and acrylate resins containing anhydride groups, or unsaturated acrylate resins, or aliphatic or aromatic isocyanates, isocyanurates or polyisocyanates; 12. two-component paints based on unsaturated polyacrylates and polymalonates; 13. thermoplastic polyacrylate paints based on thermoplastic acrylate resins or externally crosslinking acrylate resins in combination with etherified melamine resins; 14. paint systems based on siloxane-modif ied or fluorine-modified acrylate resins. In addition to components (A) and (B), the coating composition according to the invention preferably comprises as component (C) a light stabilizer of the sterically hindered amine type, the 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1 ,3,5-triazine and/or 2-hydroxyphenyl-2H-benzotriazole type, for example as mentioned in the above list in sections 2.1, 2.6 and 2.8. Further examples for light stabilizers of the 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1 ,3,5-triazine type advantageously to be added can be found e.g. in the publications US-A-4619956, EP-A-434608, US-A-5198498, US-A- 5322868, US-A-5369140, US-A-5298067, WO-94/18278, EP-A-704437, GB-A-2297091 , WO-96/28431. Of special technical interest is the addition of the 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1 ,3,5- triazines and/or 2-hydroxyphenyl-2H-benzotriazoies, especially the 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)- 1 ,3,5-triazines. To achieve maximum light stability, it is of particular interest to add sterically hindered amines as set out in the abovementioned list under 2.6. The invention therefore also relates to a coating composition which in addition to components (A) and (B) comprises as component (C) a light stabilizer of the sterically hindered amine type. This stabilizer is preferably a 2,2,6,6-tetraalkylpiperidine derivative containing at least one group of the formula in which G is hydrogen or methyl, especially hydrogen. Component (C) is preferably used in an amount of 0.05 - 5 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the solid binder. Examples of tetraalkylpiperidine derivatives which can be used as component (C) are given in EP-A-356 677, pages 3 - 17, sections a) to f). These sections of this EP-A are regarded as part of the present description. It is particular expedient to employ the following tetraalkylpiperidine derivatives: bis(2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperid-4-yl) succinate, bis(2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperid-4-yl) sebacate, bis(1 ,2,2,6,6-pentamethylpiperid-4-yl) sebacate, di(1 ,2,2,6,6-pentamethylpiperid-4-yl) butyl-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzyl)malonate, bis(1 -octyloxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperid-4-yl) sebacate, tetra(2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperid-4-yl) butane-1 ,2,3,4-tetracarboxylate, tetra(1 ,2,2,6,6-pentamethylpiperid-4-yl) butane-1 ,2,3,4-tetracarboxyIate, 2,2,4,4-tetramethyl-7-oxa-3,20-diaza-21-oxo-dispiro[5.1.11.2]heneicosane, 8-acetyl-3-dodecyl-1 ,3,8-triaza-7,7,9,9-tetramethylspiro[4.5]decane-2,4-dione, 1 ,1-bis-(1 ,2,2,6,6-pentamethylpiperidine-4-yl-oxycarbonyl)-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)- ethene, or a compound of the formulae R R R-NH-(CH 2 ) 3 -N- (CH 2 ) 2 -N- (CH 2 ) 3 -NH-R where R = CH 3 CH 3 N- ■ (CH 2 ) 3 -N-(CH 2 ) 2 -N- (CH 2 ) Γ N. R where R = in which m is 5 - 50. Apart from components (A), (B) and, if used, (C), the coating composition can also comprise further components, examples being solvents, pigments, dyes, plasticizers, stabilizers, thixotropic agents, drying catalysts and/or levelling agents. Examples of possible components are those described in Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, 5th Edition, Vol. A18, pp. 429-471 , VCH, Weinheim 1991. Possible drying catalysts or curing catalysts are, for example, organometallic compounds, amines, amino-containing resins and/or phosphiries. Examples of organometallic compounds are metal carboxylates, especially those of the metals Pb, Mn, Co, Zn, Zr or Cu, or metal chelates, especially those of the metals Al, Ti or Zr, or organometallic compounds such as organotin compounds, for example. Examples of metal carboxylates are the stearates of Pb, Mn or Zn, the octoates of Co, Zn or Cu, the naphthenates of Mn and Co or the corresponding linoleates, resinates or tallates. Examples of metal chelates are the aluminium, titanium or zirconium chelates of acetylacetone, ethyl acetylacetate, salicylaldehyde, salicylaldoxime, o-hydroxyacetophenone or ethyl trifluoroacetylacetate, and the alkoxides of these metals. Examples of organotin compounds are dibutyltin oxide, dibutyltin dilaurate or dibutyltin dioctoate. Examples of amines are, in particular, tertiary amines, for example tributylamine, triethanolamine, N-methyldiethanolamine, N-dimethylethanolamine, N-ethylmorpholine, N-methylmorpholine or diazabicyclooctane (triethylenediamine) and salts thereof. Further examples are quaternary ammonium salts, for example trimethylbenzylammonium chloride. Amino-containing resins are simultaneously binder and curing catalyst. Examples thereof are amino-containing acrylate copolymers. The curing catalyst used can also be a phosphine, for example triphenylphosphine. The novel coating compositions can also be radiation-curable coating compositions. In this case, the binder essentially comprises monomeric or oligomeric compounds containing ethylenically unsaturated bonds, which after application are cured by actinic radiation, i.e. converted into a crosslinked, high molecular weight form. Where the system is UV-curing, it generally contains a photoinitiator as well. Corresponding systems are described in the abovementioned publication Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, 5th Edition, Vol. A18, pages 451-453. In radiation-curable coating compositions, the novel stabilizers can also be employed without the addition of sterically hindered amines. The coating compositions according to the invention can be applied to any desired substrates, for example to metal, wood, plastic or ceramic materials. They are preferably used as topcoat in the finishing of automobiles. If the topcoat comprises two layers, of which the lower layer is pigmented and the upper layer is not pigmented, the novel coating composition can be used for either the upper or the lower layer or for both layers, but preferably for the upper layer. The novel coating compositions can be applied to the substrates by the customary methods, for example by brushing, spraying, pouring, dipping or electrophoresis; see also Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, 5th Edition, Vol. A18, pp. 491-500. Depending on the binder system, the coatings can be cured at room temperature or by heating. The coatings are preferably cured at 50 - 150°C, and in the case of powder coatings even at higher temperatures. The coatings obtained in accordance with the invention have excellent resistance to the damaging effects of light, oxygen and heat; particular mention should be made of the good light stability and weathering resistance of the coatings thus obtained, for example paints. The invention therefore also relates to a coating, in particular a paint, which has been stabilized against the damaging effects of light, oxygen and heat by a content of the compound of the formula (1) according to the invention. The paint is preferably a topcoat for automobiles. The invention furthermore relates to a process for stabilizing a coating based on organic polymers against damage by light, oxygen and/or heat, which comprises mixing with the coating composition a mixture comprising a compound of the formula (1); and to the use of mixtures comprising a compound of the formula (1) in coating compositions as stabilizers against damage by light, oxygen and/or heat. The coating compositions can comprise an organic solvent or solvent mixture in which the binder is soluble. The coating composition can otherwise be an aqueous solution or dispersion. The vehicle can also be a mixture of organic solvent and water. The coating composition may be a high-solids paint or can be solvent-free (e.g. a powder coating material). Powder coatings are, for example, those described in Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, 5th Ed., A18, pages 438-444. The powder coating material may also have the form of a powder-slurry (dispersion of the powder preferably in water). The pigments can be inorganic, organic or metallic pigments. The novel coating compositions preferably contain no pigments and are used as a clearcoat. Likewise preferred is the use of the coating composition as a topcoat for applications in the automobile industry, especially as a pigmented or unpigmented topcoat of the paint finish. Its use for underlying coats, however, is also possible. Preference is also given to the use of the novel compound of the formula (1) in photographic materials as stabilizer against damage by light, especially by UV light. The invention therefore also relates to a photographic material comprising a compound of the formula (1). The compounds according to the invention can be used for photosensitive materials of all kinds. For example, they can be employed for colour paper, colour reversal paper, direct- positive colour material, colour negative film, colour positive film, colour reversal film and other materials. They are preferably used, inter alia, for photosensitive colour material which comprises a reversal substrate or which forms positives. Furthermore, the novel compounds can be combined with other UV absorbers, especially those which are dispersible in aqueous gelatin, for example with hydroxyphenylbenzo- triazoles (cf . for example US-A-4,853,471 , US-A-4,973,702, US-A-4,921 ,966 and US-A-4,973,701), benzophenones, oxanilides, cyanoacrylates, salicylates, acrylonitriles or thiazolines. In this context it is advantageous to employ these further, oil-dissolved UV absorbers in the photographic material in layers other than those comprising the novel UV absorbers. In particular, it is possible successfully to stabilize photographic materials similar to those described in US-A-4,518,686. The invention therefore additionally relates to a photographic material comprising, on support, a blue-sensitive, a green-sensitive and/or a red-sensitive silver-halide emulsion layer and, if desired, a protective layer, with a layer comprising a UV absorber being arranged above the uppermost silver-halide emulsion layer, wherein the UV absorber is a compound of the formula (1). Preference is additionally given to photographic materials which have a layer comprising a compound of the formula (1 ) above the uppermost silver-halide emulsion layer and/or between the green- and red-sensitive silver-halide emulsion layers. Furthermore, it may be advantageous for all or some of the said layers which can comprise a UV absorber to have a UV absorber mixture and/or a further UV absorber which is dispersible in aqueous gelatin, but a compound of the formula (1) must be present at least in one layer. The novel material preferably has gelatin interlayers between the silver-halide emulsion layers. Preference is given to photographic materials in which the silver halide in the blue-sensitive, green-sensitive and/or red-sensitive layer is silver chloride bromide comprising at least 90 mol% of silver chloride. The compounds of the formula (1) which are used in accordance with the invention can be incorporated, alone or together with the colour coupler and, if used, further additives, into the colour photographic material by dissolving the compounds beforehand in high-boiling organic solvents. It is preferred to use solvents which boil at higher than 160°C. Typical examples of such solvents are the esters of phthalic acid, phosphoric acid, citric acid, benzoic acid or of fatty acids, and also alkylamides and phenols. Preferred colour couplers for use in the compositions of the invention, examples of such compounds, further additives such as colour cast inhibitors, DIR couplers and further light stabilizers, such as UV absorbers, phenols, phosphorus(lll) compounds, organometallic complexes, hydroquinones and hydroquinone ethers, and more precise details on the structure of various photographic materials, can be found, for example, in the publications EP-A-531 258 and EP-A-520 938, and in the literature cited therein. The novel benzophenone compounds of the formula (1) are also suitable for use in a process for the photochemical stabilization of undyed, dyed or printed fibre materials comprising for example, silk, leather, wool, polyamide, polyester or polyurethanes, and especially cellulose-containing fibre materials of all kinds. This process forms a further aspect of the present invention. Examples of such fibre materials are the natural cellulose fibres, such as cotton, linen, jute and hemp, and also viscose staple fibre and regenerated cellulose. Preferred textile fibre materials are those of cotton or polyester. The novel benzophenone compounds are also suitable for the photochemical stabilization of hydroxyl- containing fibres in blend fabrics, for example blends of cotton with polyester fibres or polyamide fibres. A further preferred area of application relates to the blocking or reduction of the UV radiation which passes through the abovementioned textile materials (UV cutting) and the heightened sun protection which textile materials finished with a novel compound offer to the human skin. As textile fibre material to be treated, polyester- or cellulose acetate-containing fibre materials are of particular interest. Examples of polyester fibres are, e.g., cellulose ester fibres such as cellulose-21/2-acetate fibres and -triacetate fibres, especially linear polyester fibres, optionally those modified with acid. These polyester fibres may be obtained by condensation of terephthalic acid with 1 ,4-bis(hydroxymethyl)-cyclohexane. Also of interest are fibres from copolymers of terephthalic- and isophthalic acid and ethylene glycol. Conventional polyester fibres in the textile industry are particularly those comprising terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol. The textile material to be treated may also be a mixed fabric of polyester fibres and other fibres, e.g., polyacrylonitrile/polyester-, polyamide/polyester-, polyester/cotton-, polyester/viscose- or polyester/wool mixed fibres, which may be discontinuously or continuously dyed or printed in conventional manner. The textile material can be used in various forms, for example as piece goods such as knitted goods or fabrics, or as yarns, e.g. on cheeses or warp beams. Also very suitable for use in the process of the present invention are textile fabrics which are used in the outerwear garment sector and which are at least partly permeable to light. By the use of such textiles, treated according to the process of the present invention, skin tissue under the outerwear garment can be protected against the damaging effects of UV-radiation. This protective effect is known as UV-cutting and is manifested in that the textile fibre material treated with a compound of formula (1) has a significantly increased Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF), relative untreated textile fibe material. The UPF is defined as the quotient of the dose of UV radiation which damages protected skin to that which damages unprotected skin. Accordingly, a UPF is also a measure of the extent to which untreated fibre materials and fibre materials treated with a novel compound of the formula (1) are permeable to UV radiation. The determination of the ultraviolet protection factor of textile fibre materials is explained, for example, in WO 94/04515 or in J. Soc. Cosmet. Chem. 40, 127-133 (1989) and can be carried out analogously thereto. The compound of formula (1) is added in an amount of 0.01 to 5 % by weight, preferably 0.1 to 3 % by weight and, in particular, from 0.25 to 2 % by weight, based on the weight of the fibre material. The compound of formula (1) is only sparingly soluble in water and is therefore applied in dispersed form. The dispersions are formed by grinding the compound of formula (1) in water, using an appropriate dispersing agent, with the aid, e.g., of quartz spheres and a high-speed stirrer, until the particle size required for applicational conditions has been attained. Examples of dispersing agents for the compounds of formula (1) include, e.g.: - acid esters or their salts of alkylene oxide adducts, such as acid esters or their salts of a polyadduct of 4 to 40 mol ethylene oxide on 1 mol of a phenol, or phosphoric acid esters of the adducts of 6 to 30 mol ethylene oxide on 1 mol of 4-nonylphenol, on 1 mol of dinonylphenol or, especially, on 1 mol of compounds which are produced by addition of 1 to 3 mol of optionally substituted styrenes on to 1 mol of phenol; - polystyrene sulfonates; - fatty acid taurides; - alkylated diphenyl oxide-mono- or -di-sulfonates; - sulfonates of polycarboxylic acid esters; - addition products, converted into an acid ester with an organic dicarboxylic acid or an inorganic polybasic acid, of 1 to 60, preferably 2 to 30 mol of ethylene oxide and/or propylene oxide, on C 8 -C 22 -fatty amines, fatty amides, fatty acids or fatty alcohols, or on C 3 - C 6 -alcohols having 3-6 hydroxy groups; - lignin sulfonates; and, particularly preferably - formaldehyde-condensation products such as condensation products of lignin sulfonates and/or phenol and formaldehyde, condensation products of formaldehyde with aromatic sulfonic acids, such as condensation products of ditolylether sulfonates and formaldehyde, condensation products of naphthalene sulfonic acids and/or naphthol- or naphthylamine- sulfonic acids with formaldehyde, condensation products of phenol sulfonic acids and/or sulfonated dihydroxydiphenylsulfone and phenols or cresols with formaldehyde and/or urea, as well as condensation products of diphenyloxide-disulfonic acid derivatives with formaldehyde. The textile material to be stabilised is preferably dyed textile material, in particular textile material dyed with dispersion dyes which are only slightly soluble in water. These dyes are therefore present in the dye liquor predominately as a fine dispersion. They may be of various dyes classes such as the acridone-, azo-, anthraquinone-, coumarine-, methine-, perinone-, naphthoquinoneimine-, quinophthalone-, styryl- or nitro-dye classes. Mixtures of dispersion dyes can also be used according to the present invention. The dyeings are conducted from aqueous baths using a continuous or discontinuous process. For discontinuous processes (exhaustion processes), the liquor ratio can be selected from within a wide range, e.g. 1:1 to 1 :100, preferably 1 :6 to 1:50. The dyeing temperature is at least 50°C. and is generally not higher than 140°C. Preferably the dyeing temperature is in the range of from 80 to 135°C. For continuous processes, the dye baths, which can contain further auxiliaries as well as the dyes, are applied to the piece goods, for example by foularding, spraying or slop padding, and are developed by thermofixing or high temperature steam processes. Linear polyester fibres and cellulose fibres are preferably dyed by the so-called high, temperature processes, in closed and pressure-resistant apparatus, at temperatures above 100°C, preferably between 110 and 135°C. and optionally under pressure. Suitable closed vessels are, e.g., circulation apparatus, such as cheese- or beam dyeing machines, winch vats, jet- or drum dyeing machines, muff-dyeing apparatus, paddles or jiggers. Cellulose-21/2-acetate fibres are preferably dyed at temperatures of 80-85°C. If the compounds of formula (1) are added during the dyeing application, they may be so applied that the fibre material is first treated with them and the dyeing is then conducted or, preferably, the fibre material is treated simultaneously with the compounds of formula (1) and the dyestuff in the dyebath. The application of the compounds of formula (1) can also be effected, however, subsequently on the finished dyeing by means of thermofixing, e.g. at 190 to 230°C. over a period of 30 seconds to 5 minutes. A pretreatment with the compounds of formula (1) is also possible, whereby the textile material is simultaneously surface-fixed. The dye liquors can also contain further additives such as dyeing auxiliaries, dispersing agents, carriers, wool protection- and wetting agents, as well as de-foamers. Moreover, the dye baths can contain mineral acids such as sulfuric acid or phosphoric acid, or expediently organic acids such as aliphatic carboxylic acids, e.g. formic acid, acetic acid, oxalic acid or citric acid and/or salts such as ammonium acetate, ammonium sulfate or sodium acetate. The acids are used particularly for the adjustment of the pH-value of the dye bath used, the pH-value lying preferably between 4 and 5. Preferably, the fibre material is placed initially for 5 minutes at 40 to 80°C. in the bath which contains the dye, the stabiliser compounds of formula (1) and optionally further additives, and which is adjusted to a pH-value of 4.5 to 5.5, the temperature is increased to 125 to 130°C. over 10 to 20 minutes, and is further treated at this temperature for 15 to 90 minutes, preferably for 30 minutes. The finishing of the dyeings is effected by cooling the dye liquor to 50 to 80°C, by rinsing the dyeings with water and optionally by cleaning in conventional manner in alkaline medium under reductive conditions. The dyeings are then rinsed again and dried. If vat dyes are used for the cellulose component, the goods are first treated with hydrosulfite at a pH-value of 6 to 12.5, in conventional manner, then treated with an oxidising agent and finally washed out. For the production of prints, the stabiliser compounds of formula (1), in the form of their aqueous dispersions, are mixed with the printing pastes. The printing pastes contain e.g. 0.1 to 10%, preferably 0.1 to 5%, of the corresponding stabiliser compounds of formula (1), based on the weight of the printing paste. The amount of the dyestuff which is added to the printing paste depends on the desired colour shade; generally, amounts of 0.01 to 15, preferably 0.02 to 10 weight %, based on the textile material used, suffice. In addition to the dyestuff s and the aqueous dispersions of the stabiliser compounds of formula (1), the printing pastes also conveniently contain acid-stable thickeners, preferably those of natural origin such as carob bean flour derivatives, especially sodium alginate, either used alone or mixed with modified cellulose, especially with preferably 20 to 25 weight % of carboxymethylcellulose. The printing pastes can also contain acid donors such as butyrolactone or sodium hydrogen phosphate, stabilisers, sequestering agents, emulsifiers, water-insoluble solvents, oxidising agents or deaerating agents. Preferred stabilisers are formaldehye-liberating agents, such as paraformaldehyde or trioxan, especially aqueous solutions containing 3040-weight % of formaldehyde; sequestering agents are e.g. sodium nitrilotriacetate, sodium ethylenediaminotetraacetate, especially sodium polymetaphosphate, in particular sodium hexametaphosphate; emulsifiers are preferably adducts of an alkylene oxide and a fatty alcohol, especially an adduct of oleyl alcohol and ethylene oxide; water-insoluble solvents are preferably high-boiling, saturated hydrocabons, especially paraffins having a boiling range of 160 to 210°C. (so-called white spirits); oxidising agents are e.g. aromatic nitro-compounds, preferably aromatic mono- or di- nitrocarboxylic acids or -sulfonic acids, which are optionally used as alkylene oxide adducts, especially nitrobenzene sulfonic acids; and deaerating agents are e.g. high-boiling solvents, preferably turpentine oils, higher alcohols, preferably C 8 -Cι 0 -alcohols, terpene alcohols or deaerating agents based on mineral- and/or silicone oils, especially commercial formulations of about 15 to 25 weight % of a mineral- and silicone oil mixture and about 75 to 85 weight % of a C 8 -C 10 -alcohol, such as 2-ethyl-n-hexanol. For the printing of the fibre material, the printing paste may be applied directly to the whole or part of the surface, conveniently using printing machines of conventional construction, typically ink-jet printing-, Vigoureux printing-, rotogravure printing-, rotary screen printing and surface screen printing machines. After the printing, the fibre material may be dried at temperatures up to 150°C, preferably at 80 to 120°C. The subsequent fixation of the fibre material is usually effected by a heat treatment at temperatures of preferably 100 to 220°C. The heat treatment is generally conducted using superheated steam under pressure. Depending on the temperature, the fixation may need from 20 seconds to 10 minutes, preferably 4 to 8 minutes. The prints are finished in conventional manner by rinsing with water, followed by an optional additional cleaning in alkaline medium under reductive conditions, e.g. using sodium dithionite. In the latter case, the print dyeings are again rinsed, de-watered and dried. The textile fibres treated with the stabiliser compounds of formula (1 ) have good resistance to the damaging effects of light, oxygen and heat. In particular, the stabilisation process according to the present invention enables to provision of polyester dyeings and prints which exhibit high lightfastness and high resistance to sublimation. No specific pre- or after- treatment of the fibre material is necessary with the stabilisation process according to the present invention. The UV absorbers according to the invention are suitable, furthermore, as photoprotective agents in cosmetic preparations. The invention additionally relates, therefore, to a cosmetic preparation comprising at least one compound of the formula (1) and cosmetically acceptable carriers or auxiliaries. The novel cosmetic composition contains from 0.1 to 15 % by weight, preferably from 0.5 to 10 % by weight, based on the overall weight of the composition, of a UV absorber of the formula (1 ) and a cosmetically acceptable auxiliary. The cosmetic composition can be prepared by physically mixing the novel UV absorber with the auxiliary by means of customary methods, for example by simply stirring together the two materials. Preferably, however, the sparingly water-soluble or water-insoluble UV absorber of the formula (1) is ground to a mean particle size of 100-400 nm or less, for example by wet-grinding in water using a suitable grinding aid and with the addition of conventional auxiliary such as a surfactant or a polymer or a mixture thereof, the nanopigment so obtained is incorporated into a conventional sun protection formulation. The production of oil- in-water or water-in-oil emulsions containing one or more pigments and in the presence of one or more oil- or water-soluble UV absorber of the formula (1) may be conducted using known methods for the preparation of sun protection emulsions. The cosmetic preparation according to the invention can be formulated as a water-in-oil or oil-in-water emulsion, as an oil-in-oil alcohol lotion, as a vesicular dispersion of an ionic or nonionic amphiphilic lipid, as a gel, solid stick or as an aerosol formulation. As a water-in-oil or oil-in-water emulsion, the cosmetically acceptable auxiliary preferably contains from 5 to 50 % of an oily phase, from 5 to 20 % of an emulsifier and from 30 to 90 % water. The oil phase mentioned can comprise any oil which is suitable for cosmetic formulations, for example one or more hydrocarbon oils, a wax, a natural oil, a silicone oil, a fatty acid ester or a fatty alcohol. Preferred mono- or polyols are ethanol, isopropanol, propylene glycol, hexylene glycol, glycerol and sorbitol. For the cosmetic formulations according to the invention it is possible to use any conventionally employed emulsifier, for example one or more ethoxylated esters of naturally occurring derivatives, for example polyethoxylated esters of hydrogenated castor oil; or a silicone oil emulsifier such as silicone polyol; an unmodified or ethoxylated fatty acid soap; an ethoxylated fatty alcohol; an unmodified or ethoxylated sorbitan ester; an ethoxylated fatty acid; or an ethoxylated glyceride. The cosmetic formulation can also comprise further components, for example emollients, emulsion stabilizers, skin moisteners, tanning accelerators, thickeners such as xanthan, moisture retention agents such as glycerol, preservatives, or fragrances and colourants. The novel cosmetic formulations are notable for good protection of human skin and/or hair against the damaging effect of sunlight while at the same time providing for reliable tanning of the skin. The following Examples further illustrate the present invention. Example 1 a) 50g of 4-(2H-naphtho[1,2-d]triazol-2-yl) benzoic acid, prepared according to Chem. Ber., 119. 1627-1639 (1986), are slurried in 1500ml of toluene, the slurry warmed to 70°C and 103g of thionyl chloride added over 30 minutes.
