摘要:
Compounds are provided that may be used as ligands in transition metal complexes, in turn useful as bleach catalysts. Also provided are complexes, bleaching compositions and methods using the compounds. The compounds are of the general formula: wherein Z represents a group selected from -NH-2, -NHR?4, -N(R4)¿2, -N(R4)3+, -NO2, -NHC(O)R?4, -N(R4)C(O)R4¿ (wherein R4 represents alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, arylalkyl or heteroarylalkyl, each optionally substituted by -F, -Cl, -Br, -I, -NH¿3?+, -SO3H, -SO3?-(Na+, K+¿), -COOH, -COO?-(Na+, K+¿), -P(O)(OH)¿2?, or -P(O)(O?-(Na+, K+))¿2 ), an optionally substituted heterocyclic ring or an optionally substituted heteroaromatic ring selected from pyridine, pyrimidine, pyrazine, pyrazole, imidazole, benzimidazole, quinoline, quinoxaline, triazole, isoquinoline, carbazole, indole, isoindole, oxazole and thiazole.

摘要:
A method of treating a textile such as a laundry fabric is provided, in which the textile is contacted with an organic substance which forms a complex with a transition metal, whereby the complex catalyses bleaching of the textile by atmospheric oxygen after the treatment. The organic substance may be used in dry form, or in a liquor that is then dried, such as an aqueous spray-on fabric treatment fluid or a wash liquor for laundry cleaning, or a non-aqueous dry cleaning fluid or spray-on aerosol fluid. The method can confer cleaning benefits to the textile after the treatment. Also provided is a dry textile having an organic substance applied or deposited thereon, whereby bleaching by atmospheric oxygen is catalysed on the textile.
摘要:
The invention relates to catalytically bleaching substrates, especially laundry fabrics, with atmospheric oxygen or air. A method of bleaching a substrate is provided that comprises applying to the substrate, in an aqueous medium, an organic substance which forms a complex with a transition metal, the complex catalysing bleaching of the substrate by atmospheric oxygen. Also provided is a bleaching composition comprising, in an aqueous medium, atmospheric oxygen and an organic substance which forms a complex with a transition metal, the complex catalysing bleaching of the substrate by the atmospheric oxygen, wherein the aqueous medium is substantially devoid of peroxygen bleach or a peroxy-based or generating bleach system.
