United States Patent 7 Claims Int. Cl. G03c 1/54; C07c 113/04 ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A diazotype reproduction material which comprises a support and a photosensitive layer coated on said support,
said layer comprising a diazonium compound having the formula:
in which X represents the members required to complete a heterocyclic ring selected from the group consisting of S-membered and 6-membered heterocyclic rings, X is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and alkyl, R and R are members of one of the groups selected from Group A in which R;., is alkyl up to 4 carbon atoms and hydroxyalkyl with up to 4 carbon atoms, and R is hydrogen, alkyl up to 4 carbon atoms, and hydroxyalkyl with up to 4 carbon atoms; and Group B in which R and R are members of the same 5- or 6-membered heterocyclic ring, and Y is the anion of an acid.
The present invention relates to a reproduction material and more particularly refers to a photosensitive diazotype reproduction material.
In copying papers and other copying foils that have been sensitized with diazo compounds, the derivatives of unilaterally diazotized p-phenylene diamine have been used as the photosensitive elements. These diazonium compounds have a tertiary amino group of basic character and they have been used successfully for both the dry process and the semi-wet process.
For the dry process the diazo compounds which are most suitable are those containing lower alkyl groups attached to the basic nitrogen atom, while for the semiwet process the best ones are those in which the basic nitrogen atom is attached to higher hydrocarbon radicals or a ring structure.
The substituents on the basic nitrogen atom affect not only coupling speed, but they also affect the light-sensitivity and keeping qualities of the diazo compounds and the light-sensitive layers prepared therewith.
In considerable measure the properties of the p-amino diazo compounds depend also on substituents attached to the phenylene ring. A substituent such as a methyl, methoxy or carboxyl group in a position ortho to the diazonium group, brings about a considerable improvement in stability and at the same time a color shift toward blue. Light-sensitivity is, however, lowered by these substituents. The presence of an alkoxy group in a position meta to the diazonium group makes the diazo compound considerably more light-sensitive in relation to the unsubstituted compound, but the keeping qualities become poorer as a result. Despite their poor stability, this type 3,432,301 Patented Mar. 11, 1969 of diazo compound is nevertheless important because of its high light-sensitivity and they find practical use in cases where copies have to be prepared as quickly as possible.
It has now been found that the stability can be improved in many compounds of the last-named type without loss of light-sensitivity, and even with improvement in light-sensitivity by the introduction of hetero-atoms in form of hydroxyl and amino groups into the alkoxy group. The light-sensitive reproduction material contains as light-sensitive substance provided by the invention at least one derivative of unilaterally diazotized p-phenylene diamine corresponding to the general formula:
X where R and R are members selected from the groups consisting of: group A wherein R is an alkyl group containing up to 4 carbon atoms, and R is a member selected from the group consisting of alkyl groups containing up to 4 carbon atoms and aralkyl groups with up to 10 carbon atoms; and group B wherein R and R are members of the same heterocyclic group; where Z is a member selected from the group consisting of alkoxy, arylated alkoxy, aryloxy, alkylthio and the group wherein R and R are members selected from the groups consisting of: group C wherein R is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl groups containing up to 4 carbon atoms, hydroxy alkyl groups having up to 4 carbon atoms and R is a member selected from the group consisting of alkyl groups containing up to 4 carbon atoms, hydroxy alkyl groups containing up to 4 carbon atoms and aralkyl groups with up to 10' carbon atoms; and group D wherein R and R are members of the same heterocyclic group; X is a member selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, halogen and methyl; and Y is the anion of an acid.
The present invention is closely related to the invention described in our co-pending application Ser. No. 311,220 filed Sept. 24, 1963, now US. Patent 3,272,630, issued Sept. 13, 1966 and should be considered in the light of the disclosure contained therein. In our co-pending application referred to, a reproduction material had been described comprising a sheet-like support and a light-sensitive diazotype layer coated on said support, which layer comprises a light-sensitive diazonium compound of nearly the above formula.
One kind of the light-sensitive reproduction material in accordance with the present invention contains as light-sensitive substance a diazonium compound of the following formula:
in which X represents the members required to complete a heterocyclic ring selected from the group consisting of S-membered and 6-membered heterocyclic rings, X is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and alkyl, and R and R4 are members of one of the groups selected from Group A in which R and R are selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl up to 4 carbon atoms,
3 and hydroxy alkyl with up to 4 carbon atoms, and Group B in which R and R are members of the same heterocyclic ring.
Reproduction materials utilizing the present invention can be used both for the dry and for the semi-wet processes. According to the coupler used, dark colors such as deep brown or violet can be prepared with great speed.
Therefore one object of the present invention is to provide a light-sensitive, diazotype reproduction material utilizing a diazonium compound which can be used for the dry and for the semi-wet processes.
Another object is to provide a light-sensitive, diazotype reproduction material which has excellent photosensitivity, good stability, and good compatibility with additives and stabilizers.
Other objects will become apparent during the course of the following specification.
The diazo compounds are generally used as the diazonium chloride in the form of double salts with metal halides such as zinc chloride or cadmium chloride. Other forms such as sulfates, phosphates or borofluorides may also be used.
The diazo compounds were simply obtained according to methods known in the literature particularly where the compounds contain a heterocyclic ring in the para position to the diazo group. In such a case 2-chloro-5-nitrophenol e.g. was etherified with epichlorhydrin in the presence of an alkali, and the epoxide ring in the ether side chain was split and substituted by suitable agents. Subsequently the nuclear chlorine atom was replaced by a heterocyclic base containing a secondary nitrogen atom, the nitro compound reduced, and the product diazotized.
If the diazo compound used is a p-dialkylamino-benzenediazonium compound, the starting material may be o-nitrophenol which is etherified in the above explained manner. The nitro compound thus obtained is reduced and dialkylated according to one of the methods which are commonly known for reducing and dialkylating respectively. The substitution of an amino group in the para position of the dialkylamino group is achieved by coupling with a diazo compound to form an azo dyestufi and subsequent reductive splitting of the azo group of the dyestuff; instead of coupling, a nitroso or a nitro group may be substituted to the benzene nucleus by a known method with subsequent reduction of the nitroso or nitro group. The amino group is finally converted into the diazo group by the application of nitrous acid.
It should be understood that the products obtained according to the present process may also be obtained according to difierent reaction sequences.
Detailed descriptions of the properties and of the production of various compounds are given by the examples wherein the volume unit is milliliters and the weight unit is 1 gram. The formulas of some of the new diazonium compounds according to the present invention are in the table. The melting points in degrees centigrade of the nitro compounds (nitro group in the p-position to the NR R group) which are the basic materials for these diazonium salts are: (1) 94 C., (2) 92 C., (3) 92 C., (4) 198 C. (as HCl salt), (5) 108-109" C., (6) 131 C., (7) 78-79 C., (8) 101 C. The figures 1 to 8 correspond to the figures of the formulas in the table.

45 parts by volume of 2-chloro-5-nitro-phenyl glycidyl ether in 100 parts by volume of dioxane were dropped while cooling with ice into a solution of 120 parts by weight of ethanolamine in 100 parts by volume of dioxane under agitation within two hours. Then the solution was maintained fifteen hours at room temperature, poured on water, the residue drawn 01f and dried. The crude yield was 55 parts -by weight of 1-nitro-4-chloro-3-(gamma-hydroxy ethyl-amino-beta-hydroxy-propoxy)-benzene melting at 132133 C.
55 parts by weight of this intermediate product were heated to boiling temperature with 70 parts by volume of pyrrolidine and parts by volume of water during three hours, poured on water, drawn oil and recrystallized from methanol. The yield was 40 parts by weight of 1-nitro-4- pyrrolidino-3-(gamma hydroxy ethylamino beta-hydroxy-propoxy)-benzene melting at 131 C.
40 parts by weight of 1-nitro-4-pyrrolidino-3-(gammahydroxy-ethylamino-beta hydroxy propoxy)-benzene in 86 parts by volume of concentrated hydrochloric acid and 40 parts by volume of water were reduced while cooled with ice with zinc dust to 1-amino-4-pyrrolidino-3- (gamma-hydroxyethylamino-beta hydroxy propoxy)- benzene. The filtered solution was added to 37 parts by volume of hydrochloric acid and diazotized with 62 parts by volume of 2 N sodium nitrite solution under cooling with ice. The precipitated diazo compound was reprecipitated from a mixture of water and sodium chloride. The yield was 50 parts by weight.
Example 2 A reproduction paper conventionally used for diazotype I purposes having on one side a precoating of colloidal silica and polyvinyl acetate was coated on the pretreated surface with a solution containing:
6 3,5-dihydroxy-4-bromo-benzoic-2-diethylamino anilide Zinc chloride Diazo compound of 1-amino-4-pyrrolidino-3-(gamama-di-n-proylamino-beta hydroxy-propoxy)-benzene in the form of its zinc chloride double salt of hydrochloric acid (Formula 7) 2.2
per 100 parts by volume of water. The process according to Example 1 was followed and red images on a white background were obtained.
The diazo compound was obtained by the following procedure. parts by weight of 2-chloro-5-nitropheny1- glycidylether were heated with 60 parts by volume of din-propylamine during three hours on a steam bath. Then ice water was added and the precipitated product was drawn off and dried. The crude yield was parts by weight melting at 41-42" C. Further processing was effected with good yields analogous to the method described in Example 1.
Similar results were obtained if the compounds of the Formulas 1-5 and 8 were used which may be obtained analogously to the compound of Formula 6. In Formula 5, the N-n-butyl compound and in Formula 7 the N-di-npropyl compound were used.
