Abstract:
Process for preparing disodium 5,5′-indigosulfonate, the feedstock being indigo, this process including the following steps: i) the indigo is subjected to a sulfonation treatment resulting in a mixture that contains 5,5′-indigosulfonic acid, this process including: ii) a reduction treatment is applied to the mixture obtained in step i), and optionally a purification step, so as to obtain a composition including leuco-5,5′-indigosulfonic acid, iii) the leuco-5,5′-indigosulfonic acid is isolated from the composition resulting from step ii), iv) the leuco-5,5′-indigosulfonic acid resulting from step iii) is oxidized to give disodium 5,5′-indigosulfonate.
Abstract:
Described herein are methods of dyeing fibers, and dyed fibers and textiles made using the methods. The methods involve contacting a fiber with a dye liquor at a dye liquor temperature of about 30° C. to 115° C. to form a dyed fiber, wherein the dye liquor components include at least N,N′-diacetyl indigo and a salt solution having ionic strength of about 0.03 M (moles/liter) to 1 M and pH of about 3 to 8 at 20° C. The contacting is generally carried out for a contact period of about 10 seconds to 30 minutes, for example by immersing the fiber in the heated dye liquor. By using the disclosed methods, N,N′-diacetyl indigo is substantially uniformly distributed on the dyed fiber to provide intense, vibrant colors affixed thereto. Dyed textiles display substantially uniform color.

Abstract:
A novel electron acceptor based on bay-annulated indigo (BAI) was synthesized and used for the preparation of a series of high performance donor-acceptor small molecules and polymers. The resulting materials possess low-lying LUMO energy level and small HOMO-LUMO gaps, while their films exhibited high crystallinity upon thermal treatment, commensurate with high field effect mobilities and ambipolar transfer characteristics.
