Abstract
A reactive dye compound comprising:(a) at least one chromophore moiety(b) at least one nitrogen-containing heterocycle(c) a linking group to link each chromophore moiety to each nitrogen-containing heterocycle;characterised in that at least one nitrogen-containing heterocycle is substituted with at least one oxy- or thio-carbonyl derivative wherein the oxy- or thio-carbonyl derivative is selected from Y wherein Y is —A(CO)R* wherein A is selected from O or S and wherein R* is an organic residue which comprises at least one nucleophilic group, and salts thereof.The compounds herein have high Exhaustion Values (E), high Efficiency Values (T) and show significant improvements in terms of reducing spent dyestuff in effluent, increasing dye affinity to the substrate, increasing the dye-substrate covalent bonding, increasing the ability to dye substrates at room temperature, decreasing the amount of dye that is removed during the post dyeing “soaping off process” and therefore simplifying the post dyeing “soaping off process” traditionally associated with dyeing cotton with fiber reactive dyes and reduction of staining of adjacent white fabrics. In addition,…
