Abstract:
Our present investigation aims at the synthesis and application of new, symmetric bridged bis-pyrazolone based acid dyes. The bis-pyrazolone compounds were accomplished from bis- hydrazine of 4,4′-Diaminostilbene-2,2′-disulfonic acid and ethyl acetoacetate. The bis-pyrazolones have been coupled with diazonium salts of o-hydroxyl aromatic amines which resulted in ligand dyes. The intermediate ligand dyes were treated with 3d transition metals to achieve the targeted metal complex acid dyes. The structures of investigated compounds were confirmed with the help of spectroscopic techniques. Dyes were applied on leather and their application parameters including their light fastness, wash fastness and rubbing fastness were determined.
