Synthesis and dyeing properties of some new monoazo disperse dyes derived from 2-amino-4-(2’,4’-dichlorophenyl)‎-1,3 thiazole

Abstract EN

Ten new monoazo disperse dyes (4a-j) have been synthesized by coupling of diazotized 2-amino-4-(20,40-dichlorophenyl)-1,3 thiazole (2) with various N-alkyl derivatives of substituted aniline (3a-j) and their dyeing performance on polyester fiber has been assessed.

These dyes are characterized by elemental analysis, UV–vis spectra, IR and NMR spectroscopy.

The absorption maxima (kmax) were recorded in DMF and were found to be in the range of 530-600 nm.

The dyed polyester fabric showed fair to very good light fastness and very good to excellent washing and rubbing fastness properties with superior depth and levelness.
