INNER SALTS BASED ON AMMONIUM AND SULFONATE GROUPS OF PERYLENE-3,4,9,10-TETRACARBOXYLIC AND DERIVATIVES THEREOF

摘要

Perylenetetracarboxylic diimides which contain a radical in the same molecule on one imide nitrogen which acts as an anion but contain a radical on the other imide nitrogen which acts as a cation, and on this basis form inner salts, are available by reaction of sulfo-containing alkylamines with perylenetetracarboxylic monoanhydride monoalkylaminoalkylimides or by reaction of alkylaminoalkylamines with perylenetetracarboxylic monoanhydride monosulfoalkylimides. As a result of their characteristic structural principle, these novel perylene compounds have excellent dispersing properties, in particular for pigments of the same chemical classes of compounds and can even be used themselves as pigments (colorants) depending on the substituent.
