DESCRIPTION:
BRIEF SUMMARY
The present invention relates to novel dye mixtures containing from 40 to 75% by weight, based on the weight of the dyes, of a dye of the formula I ##STR2## where R is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl and n is 1, and from 25 to 60% by weight, based on the weight of the dyes, of a dye of the formula I where R is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl and n is 2, to dye preparations containing the novel dye mixtures, and to the use of the dye mixtures for dyeing or printing textile fibers or fabrics.
EP-A-314 002 discloses not only the individual components of the abovementioned dye mixture but also dye mixtures. However, the products mentioned therein are not fully satisfactory from an application viewpoint.
It is an object of the present invention to provide dyes which have an advantageous application property profile and are readily obtainable.
We have found that this object is achieved by the dye mixtures defined at the beginning.
R in the formula I is for example methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, isobutyl or sec-butyl.
Preference is given to dye mixtures containing dyes of the formula I where R is methyl or ethyl, in particular methyl.
As well as the dyes of the formula I where n is 1 or 2, the novel dye mixtures may additionally contain minor amounts (up to 10% by weight, preferably up to 4% by weight, each percentage being based on the weight of the dyes where n is 1 and 2) of dyes of the formula I where n is 3, 4 or 5.
The novel dye mixtures can be obtained in a conventional manner. In one possible option, an amine mixture containing from 35 to 90% by weight, based on the weight of the amines, of an amine of the formula II ##STR3## where n is 1, from 10 to 65% by weight, based on the weight of the amines, of an amine of the formula II where n is 2, and optionally up to 10% by weight, based on the weight of the amines where n is 1 and 2, of one or more amines of the formula I where n is 3, 4 or 5 is diazotized and coupled with a pyridone of the formula III ##STR4## where R is as defined above. After the coupling has ended, the reaction mixture is in general subsequently heat treated at from 60.degree. to 90.degree. C.
If desired, the novel mixtures may contain further components, for example dispersants, such as ligninsulfonates or sulfonation products of the reaction product of formaldehyde with aromatics, or other auxiliaries.
Accordingly, the present invention also provides dye preparations containing from 15 to 60% by weight, based on the weight of the dye preparation, of a dye mixture as defined at the beginning and from 40 to 85% by weight, based on the weight of the dye preparation, of a dispersant.
The novel dye mixtures are advantageously useful for dyeing or printing textile fibers or fabrics, in particular polyesters, but also fibers or fabrics composed of cellulose esters or polyamides or blends of polyesters with cellulose fibers.
Their dyeing properties are distinctly superior to those of the individual dyes. In particular, they are more compatible with blue and red dyes.
Embodiments of the invention will now be more particularly described by way of example.
EXAMPLE 1
301 g of the amine of the formula ##STR5## where n is 2 and 660.5 g of the amine of the above formula where n is 1 were dissolved in 380 ml of glacial acetic acid. 1100 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid and 295 g of concentrated sulfuric acid were added. The mixture was then cooled down with 4.5 kg of ice. At from 0.degree. to 5.degree. C. the mixture was admixed with 1140 ml of 23% strength by weight aqueous sodium nitrite solution and subsequently stirred at from 0.degree. to 5.degree. C. for 90 minutes. Excess nitrous acid was then destroyed with amidosulfuric acid and the reaction mixture was added in the course of 45 minutes to a solution of 586 g of 1,4-dimethyl-2-hydroxy-5-cyanopyrid-6-one in 7 liters of water and 290 g of sodium hydroxide solution (50% strength by weight) which was being cooled to 0.degree. C. with ice. During the addition the pH of the resulting reaction mixture was maintained within the range from 4 to 8 wit
