Description

Note: Descriptions are shown in the official language in which they were submitted.





It is known that pigments which are distinguished
by outstanding fastness properties are obtained by conden-
sation of azodyestuff carboxylic acid halides of the for-
mula

~ COHal


wherein A represents an aromatic radical, Q, X, Y and Z
represent hydrogen atoms or non-solubilising substituents,
and Hal represent a halogen atom, with a diamin~ o the
formula
H2N-B-NH2
wherein B represents an arylene radical which optionally
contains non-solubilising substituents, in the molar ratio
2:1. Depending on the nature of the substituents, the pig-
ments obtained leave something to be desired as regards
colour strength and purity of shade.

It has now been found that pigments having increased
colour strength and purity are obtained by condensing a
mixture consisting of 70-98 % by weight of a carboxylic
acid halide of the formula I ~main component) and 30-2 %
by weight of an additional component of the formula

wherein Q and B have the given meanings.
The main component and t:he addi-tional component thus
differ from each other in their bulkiness.
By non-solubilising substituents are meant those which
do not cause the pigment to dissolve in water or in organic
solvents, i.e. for example halogen atoms, alkyl or alkoxy
groups of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, nitro, trifluoromethyl,
carbamoyl, ureido, sulphamoyl or cyano groups, alkoxycarbonyl,
alkanoyl, alkylcarbamoyl, alkylureido or alkanoylamino groups
of 2 to 6 carbon atoms, alkylsulphonyl or alkylsulphamoyl
groups of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, aryloxycarbonyl, aroyl,
aroylamino, arylsulphonyl, arylcarbamoyl, arylsulphamoyl,
aryl, arylureido or arylazo groups.
Q preferably represents a hydrogen or a bromine atom,
a methoxy, nitro or cyano group.
For the substituents X', Y' and Z' of the additional
component, it suffices that they are not water-solubilising.
Since the amo~mt of additional component is usually small,
Xl, Y' and Z' can also represent those groups which cause
the dye to dissolve to some extent in organic solvents.
Accordingly, X', Y' and Z' can represent for example halogen
atoms, alkyl or alkoxy groups of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, nitro,

trifluoromethyl, carbamoyl, sulphamoyl, ureido or cyano
groups, alkoxycarbonyl, alkylcarbamoyl, alkanoyl, alkylureido
or alkanoylamino groups of 2 to 6 carbon atoms, alkylsul-
phonyl or alkylsulphamoyl groups of 1 to 6 carbon atoms,
aryloxycarbonyl, aroyl, arylsulphonyl, arylsulphamoyl,
aroylamino, arylureido, arylcarbamoyl or arylazo groups.
The starting carboxylic acid halides are preferably
those of the indicated formulae wherein A represents a phenyl
radical and X, X', Y, Y', Z and Z' represent hydrogen or
halogen atoms, alkyl or alkoxy groups of 1 to 4 carbon atoms,
trifluoromethyl, nitro, carbamoyl or cyano groups; alkoxy-
carbonyl groups,the alkyl moieties of which can be substituted
by halogen atoms or alkoxy groups of 1 to 4 carbon atoms,
phenoxy-halogenphenoxy or methylphenoxy groupsi phenoxycarbonyl
groups which can be substituted in the phenyl moiety by
halogen atoms, methyl, phenyl, phenoxy or alkoxycarbonyl
groups of 1 to 4 carbon atoms; naphthoxycarbonyl groups,
alkanoyl groups or alkylcarbamoyl groups of 2 to 6 carbon
atoms,,or phenylcarbamoyl groups which can be substituted
in the phenyl moiety by halogen atoms, alkyl or alkoxy groups
of 1 to 6 carbon atoms or trifluoromethyl groups.
Particularly good results are obtained by using as
main component an azo dyestuff carboxylic acid chloride of
the formula

The resultant azo dyes-tuff carboxylic acids are treatecl
with agents which are capable-of converting carboxylic acids
into their halides, for example the chloride~ or bromides,
in particu1ar with phosphorus halides, such as phosphorus
pentachloride or phosphorus trichloride or pentabromide,
phosphoroxy halides and preferably with thionyl chloride.
The treatment with such acid halogenating agents is
preferably carried out in inert organic solvents, such as
dimethyl formamide, chlorobenzenes, for example mono- or
dichlorobenzene, toluene, xylene or nitrobenzene. In the case
of these five last mentioned solvents, dimethyl formamide is
optionally added.
In the preparation of the carboxylic acid halides, it
is usually advantageous to dry the azo compounds obtained
in aqueous medium beforehand or to free them from water
azeotropically by boiling them in an organic solvent. The
azeotropic drying can be carried ou-t, if desired, directly
before the treatment with the acid halogenating agents.
The mixtures of carboxylic acid halides of the formulae
I and II to 'be used according to the invention can be obtained
either by mixing the carbo~ylic acid halides of the formulae




,, . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .... ~,



I and II or by treating a mixture of the corresponding
carboxylic acids with acid halogenating agents or by coupling
a mixture o~ the amines of the formulae III and IV with 2,3-
hydroxynaphthoic acld and subsequently effecting acid
halogenation.

Instead of using homogeneous diamines, it is also
possible to use mixtures of different diamines without a
surprising effect being thereby attained.
The condensation between the carboxylic acid halides of
the kind mentioned at the outset and the aromatic diamines is
expediently carried out in anhydrous medium. Under this

. - 16 -

.
condition, the condensation takes place as a rule with
surprising ease at temperatures which lie in the boiling range
of the normal organic solvents, for example, toluene, mono-
chloroben~ene, dichlorobenzene, trichlorobenzene or nitro-
benzene. In order to hasten the reaction it is in general
advisable to use an acid acceptor, for example anhydrous
sodium acetate or pyridine. The resulting pigments are partly
crystalline and partly amorphous and are obtained in most
cases in very good yield and in a pure state. It is advisable
to first precipitate the acid chlorides obtained from the
carboxylic acids. In many cases, however, precipitation of
the acid chloride can without detriment be dispensed with
and the condensation carried out directly after the manufacture
of the carboxylic acid chlorides.
The new co-condensates constitute valuable pigments
which, in finely divided form, may ~e used for pigmenting
organic material of high molecular weight, for example
cellulose ethers and esters, polyamides, polyurethanes or
polyesters, acetyl cellulose, nitrocellulose, natural resins
or artificial resins, such as polymerisation or condensation
resins, for example aminoplasts, in particular urea and
melamine/formaldehyde resins, alkyd resins, phenolic plastics,
polycarbonates, polyolefins, such as polystyrene, polyvinyl
chloride, polyethylene, polypropylene, polyacrylonitrile,
polyacrylic esters, rubber, casein, silicones and silicone

~ 2

resins, individually or in mixtures.
It is immaterial whether the cited materials of high
molecular weight are in the form of plastics, melts or in the
form os spinnin~ solutions, lacquers o~ printing inks.
Depending on the use to which they are put, it is advantageous
to use the new pigments as toners or in the form of preparations.
In addition to the pure pigment, the preparations can
contain in addition for example natural resins, for example
abietic acid or esters thereof, ethyl cellulose, cellulose
acetobutyrate, alkaline earth metal salts of higher fatty
2cids, fatty amines, ~or example stearylamine or rosinamine,
copolymers of vinyl chloride/vinyl acetate, polyacrylonitrile
or polyterpene resins or water-soluble dyes, for example
dyestuff sulphonic acids or the alkaline earth metal salts
thereof.
The colourants of the present invention are distinguished
by their reasonable price, high colour streng~h, and good
fastness to light, overstripe bleeding, migration and good
resistance to atmospheric influences. They differ substantially
in their properties from the mixtures which are obtained by
mechanically mixing the individual pigments which are obtained
on the one hand by condensing the main component by itself
with a diamine, and on the other hand condensing the addi~ional
component by itself with the same diamine. They sometimes
show new or modified X-ray diagrams, which point to the

mixtures of the individual pigrnents, the co-condensates of the
present invention are distinguished by brighter shades, even
ir the additional component by itself results in very dull
shades, by greater colour strength and in many cases by a
considerable bathochromic disp:Lacement of the shade. In
addition, they exhibit a lesser dichroism and increased
stability to recrystallisation in organic solvents.
A further substantial advantage of the pigments of the
present invention consists in the fact that they do not
absolutely require a conditioning, i.e. a crystal comminution,
for example by grinding or kneading, and can be processed
direct to give pigment preparations.
The invention is illustrated by the following Examples;
in which the parts and percentages are by weight.

Example 1

A. 72.2 parts of the azo dye obtained by coupling
diazotised l-amino-2,5-dichlorobenzene with 2,3-hydroxy-
naphthoic acid are dispersed in 520 parts of o-dichlorobenzene
and the dispersion is heated, ~ith stirring, to 85C. Then
3~.7 parts of thionyl chloride are added dropwise in the
course of 10 minutes. The reaction mixture is further heated
and kept for 60 minutes at 115-120C. After cooling to 20C,
the precipitated crystalline azo dyestuff carboxylic acid
chloride is isolated by filtration, washed with a small amount
of cold o-dichlorobenzene, then with petroleum ether and
dried in a vacuum cabinet at 70C.

B. 82.5 parts of the azo dye obtained by coupling
diazotised 4-methyl-3-aminobenzoic acid 2'-chloroethyl ester
with 2,3-hydroxynaphthoic acid are converted into the
carboxylic acid chloride as described in A).

Co-condensation
With stirring, 14.42 parts of chloride A (95% by weight of
the total amount of acid chloride) and 0.86 part of the
acid chloride B (5% by weight of the total amount of the
acid chloride) are heated, with stirring, in 260 parts of
o-dichlorobenzene to 110-120C. Then a warm solution of

1~0C containing 2.16 parts of l,~-phenylenediamlne in 65
parts of o-dichlorobenzene are added in the course of 2 to 3
minutes. The precipitated pigment mixture is stirred for 16
hours at 140-145C. The resulting disazo pigment mixture is
collected by filtration at 100C, washed firstly wi~h warm
o-dichlorobenzene of 100C, then with warm methanol of 20C,
and finally with warm water. The filter cake is dried in a
vacuum cabinet at lOO~C, affording 14.7 parts of a red disazo
pigment mixture which is virtually insoluble in the customary
solvents. The product colours polyvinyl chloride and lacquers
in bright red shades of excellent fastness to light~ migration

Example 137

0.6 g of the pigment obtained in Example 1 is mixed with 67 g
of polyvinyl chloride, 33 g of dioctyl phthalate~ 2 g of
dibutyl tin dilaurate and 2 g of titanium dioxide and the
mixture is processed to a thin sheet for 15 minutes at 160C
on a roll mill. The red colouration obtained is strong and
fast to migration and light.

Example 138

To 100 g of a stoving lacquer consisting of 58.5 g of a 60%
solution of a coconut alkyd resin in xylene, 23 g of a 65%
solution of a melamine varnish gum in butanol, 17 g of xylene
and 1.5 g of butanol, are added 1 g of the colourant of
Example 1 and 5 g of titanium dioxide. The mixture is ground
for 48 hours in a ball mill and the pigmented lacquer is
sprayed onto a clean metal surface. After stoving at 120~,
a brilliant red colouration of good fastness to light and
overstripe bleeding and good resistance to atmospheric
influences is obtained.

Example 139

1 g of the pigment obtained in Example 1 is finely ground in
an Engelsmann grinding machine with 4 g of a litho varnish of

the composition:
29.4% of linseed oil-stand oil (300 poise)
67.2% of linseed oil-stand oil (20 poise)
2.1% of cobalt octoate (8% Co) and
1.3% of lead octoate (24~/o Pb).
Using a stereotype block, this varnish is printed in an
amount of 1 g/m2 on art paper by letterpress printing. A
strong, bright, red shade of good transparency and good gloss
is obtained.
The pigment is also suitable for other printing methods,
such as intaglio printing, offset printing, flexographic
printing, with equally good results.

Example 140

15 g of collodion cotton containing 35% of butanol, 15 g of
a phthalate resin modified with castor oil, 15 g of a 70%
butanolic solution of a urea varnish gum, 20 g of butyl
acetate, 10 g of glycol monoethyl ether, 20 g of toluene and
5 g of alcohol are processed to a lacquer. This lacquer is
then pigmented with 2 g of the colourant of Example 1 and 2 g
of titanium dioxide (rutile) and ground. The lacquer is
sprayed onto cardboard and dried, giving a red coating of very
good fastness to light and overstripe bleeding and very good
resistance to atmospheric influences.
