Description

The present invention relates to mixed azo-condensation pigments of yellow shades and a process for their preparation.

Yellow shades azo-condensation disazopigments are prepared by condensation of dicarboxylic acid dichlorides with aromatic amines.

Said pigments are used for dyeing polyvinyl chloride, polyurethane, polyethylene and other polymeric substances. Their disadvantage is the need to use pure amines for condensation with dichlorides.

It has now been found that if a mixture of amines is used instead of an amine for condensation with dichlorides, pigments of excellent utility properties are obtained.

Process for the preparation of mixed azo condensation pigments of the formula I

COCH _{3 0} ^0CH 3

R-NHCO-BN = N-CHCOHN-A-NHCOCH-N = NB-CONH-R (I) wherein A is an arylene radical having 6 or 10 carbon atoms, optionally further substituted by one or two chlorine atoms, methyl, ethoxy trifluoromethyl, or cyano, and B is a benzene moiety optionally substituted by chlorine, methyl, methoxy, trifluoromethyl, carbomethoxy, or nitro, and R is a residue of a mixture of two or three benzene-type amines wherein the benzene ring is substituted with one or more halo, methyl, carbalkoxy, acylamino or benzoylamino invention resides in that the dichlorides of formula II Goch _3-OCH3

C10C-BN = N-CHCONH-A-NHCOCH-N = NB-COCl (II), where A and B are as hereinbefore defined, are condensed with a mixture of amines of formula III r-nh ₂ (III), wherein R has the aforementioned by heating in an inert organic solvent to a temperature of 100 to 160 ° C. In many cases, pigments prepared from a mixture of amines have a higher color strength and a higher shade brilliance than pigments prepared from corresponding uniform amines. Condensation of dicarboxylic acid dichlorides of formula II with an amine mixture also yields pigments of superior application properties than pigments of the same chemical composition prepared from the individual components of the mixture by mechanical blending. The main advantage of the new process is the possibility of using a mixture of substituted benzene series amines. These can be prepared at lower production costs, since in the production of amines or the corresponding nitro compounds, purification operations such as crystallization or distillation can be omitted from the production cycle, which are normally included when amines of uniform chemical composition need to be produced.

In addition to mixtures of aromatic amines of this type, i.e. resulting from the technological preparation of these compounds, mixtures of amines prepared artificially by mixing the individual components in the desired ratio can also be used for condensation.

Anhydrous and inert organic solvents such as xylene, chlorobenzene, o- or p-chlorotoluene, o-dichlorobenzene, trichlorobenzene, nitrobenzene or mixtures of such solvents, optionally paraffinic or cycloparaffinic hydrocarbons or organic or inorganic esters or ethers are used as reaction medium. - such as tributyl phosphate.
