Cationic dyes

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cationic dyes are dyes with a positive charge in the molecule, which preferably produce brilliant colorations with polyacrylonitrile fibers (PAN) or anionic modified polyester fibers . The dyes form a salt bond with the fiber .

Chemical properties

The dyes were formerly known as basic dyes called and they are based on the Color Index as CI Basic Dyes named. However, this classification should no longer be used, since the positively charged structures are not Brønsted acids .

The charge of the cationic dyes can be both delocalized and localized. The molecules with a delocalized charge are methine dyes with a vinylogous amidinium salt structure :

Vinylogous amidinium salts

The two terminal nitrogen atoms can also be part of a heterocycle . The double bonds can contain further hetero atoms or also be part of an aromatic system. Any chromophore can be used for the dyes with localized charge - the charge is separated from the chromophoric system by a non-conjugated group. An example is the azo dye C.I. Basic Red 18 .
