Abstract
The synthesis of azo dyes derived from 2-aminothiazole derivatives was undertaken and their spectroscopic properties in different solvents examined. From the results of the investigation, the incorporation of electron withdrawing group in the acceptor ring of the chromogen gives a bathochromic shift of the visible absorption band, while the incorporation of electron donating group in the same position of the chromogen results in hysochromic effect. The dyes were applied to polyester and nylon fabrics and their fastness characteristics assessed. It was found generally that the dyes are very resistant to alkaline washing and are also suitable for transfer printing. Series of me-thine dyes were also synthesized by condensing highly electronegative active methylene compounds with formerly group of aromatic compounds and the dyes obtained were applied on polyester and nylon fabrics. The co lours obtained are very brilliant, ranging from yellow to green with good resistance to alkaline hydrolysis.
