| abstract |
A novel process for preparing a aminophenyltriazines of the formula (I’), comprises reacting a corresponding halogenophenyltriazine of the formula (I’’), with an amine of the formula (IX), H-NR'2R'3, wherein X is chloro or preferably fluoro and the symbols A, A', R'2, R'3 and R44 are organic residues as defined in claim 1. Products of this process and derivatives thereof are useful as stabilizers and UV absorbers for protecting an organic material against damage by light, oxygen and/or heat, or as recording dye in an optical recording medium, especially for writing or reading digital information in a recording layer using laser radiation of wavelength less than 450 nm. |
