Abstract

A hydroxypropylated 2-nitro-p-phenylenediamine of formula (I), wherein R1 is a C1-4 alkyl, .beta.-hydroxyethyl, .beta.-hydroxypropyl or .gamma.-hydroxypropyl radical; R2 and R3 independently represent a .beta.-hydroxyethyl, .beta.-hydroxypropyl, .gamma.-hydroxypropyl or .beta.,.gamma.-dihydroxypropyl radical, with the proviso that at least one of R1, R2 and R3 is a .gamma.-hydroxypropyl radical, while the other two are not both a .beta.-hydroxyethyl radical; and cosmetically acceptable salts thereof. This compound may be used for directly dyeing hair to give blue through purplish blue shades which are wash-fast, light-fast, waterproof and sweat resistant.
