The use of reactive dyes falling within the general formula I for dyeing nitrogenous fibers such as wool is known, for example, from U.S. Pat. No. 4,066,638, EP-A-107 614, EP-A-559 617, DE-A-3,441,273 and DE-A-2,154,942. Depending on the dyeing process, dyeing prescriptions for cotton and wool involve a pH of 10-12, temperatures within the range from 60 to 80° C. and treatment times around the 10 hour mark.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,102,641 discloses the use of halotriazinyl reactive dyes for dyeing hair.
JP-A-75 025 529 describes dye formulations for use as hair dyes. The reactive dyes used therein are based on p-sulfatoethylsulfonylaniline as diazo component and fiber-reactive radical. Therefore dyeing with these dyes requires relatively long treatment times.
It is an object of the present invention to provide dyes for dyeing hair under benign dyeing conditions, such as mild pH, short treatment times and low temperatures.
We have found that this object is achieved by the use of reactive dyes of the general formula I for dyeing human hair.
The reactive dyes of the formula I are each indicated in the form of the free acid. It will be appreciated that the use of their physiologically acceptable salts is likewise encompassed by the present invention.
Suitable cations are derived from metal or ammonium ions. Metal ions are especially lithium, sodium or potassium ions. Ammonium ions for the purposes of the present invention are substituted or unsubstituted ammonium cations. Examples of substituted ammonium cations are monoalkyl-, dialkyl-, trialkyl-, tetraalkyl- or benzyltrialkyl-ammonium cations or those cations derived from nitrogenous five- or six-membered saturated heterocycles, such as pyrrolidinium, piperidinium, morpholinium, piperazinium or N-alkylpiperazinium cations or their N-monoalkyl- or N,N-dialkyl-substituted products. Alkyl is generally straight-chain or branched C

-alkyl, which may be substituted by 1 or 2 hydroxyl groups and/or interrupted by from 1 to 4 oxygen atoms in ether function.
In general, all alkyl and alkylene groups mentioned above and appearing in the formulae which follow may be straight-chain or branched.
Substituted alkyl radicals preferably contain, unless otherwise stated, 1, 2 or 3 substituents, especially 1 or 2 substituents, in any desired position.
