Abstract

Abstract A process for producing solutions of salts of lower aliphatic carboxylic acids of cationic dyestuffs which consists essentially of converting the halide, especially the chloride, of a cationic dyestuff into the salt of a lower aliphatic carboxylic acid by reacting the halide with the corresponding carboxylic acid in the presence of an epoxide compound having a maximum of 12 carbon atoms.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 17
Claim 1
Independent Claim 74 words
A process for producing a solution of a salt of a lower aliphatic carboxylic acid of a cationic dyestuff which consists essentially of converting a cationic dyestuff halide salt into the salt of a lower aliphatic carboxylic acid by reacting the halide salt with a 100 to 2,000% excess of the corresponding carboxylic acid in the presence of a 100 to 250% excess of an epoxide compound having a maximum of 12 carbon atoms.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 74 words
A process for producing a solution of a salt of a lower aliphatic carboxylic acid of a cationic dyestuff which consists essentially of converting a cationic dyestuff halide salt into the salt of a lower aliphatic carboxylic acid by reacting the halide salt with a 100 to 2,000% excess of the corresponding carboxylic acid in the presence of a 100 to 250% excess of an epoxide compound having a maximum of 12 carbon atoms.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 16 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the reaction is performed in aqueous lower aliphatic carboxylic acid.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 16 words

Claim 6
Dependent Claim 11 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the epoxide compound is epichlorohydrin.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 15 words
The process to claim 1 wherein the cationic dyestuff has an external quaternary ammonium group.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 15 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the dyestuff solution obtained is subsequently diluted with water.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 17 words
