Abstract
The reaction of cyanoethyl cellulose with para-bromo diazonium chloride resulted in the creation of a novel bromo-containing cellulosic (MCPT). The dispersion stability of MCPT has been improved by its dispersion into 1% waterborne polyurethane acrylate (WPUA). TEM, particle size, and zeta potential were used to track the dispersion stability of aqueous MCPT and MCPT in 1% WPUA and particle size. The prepared MCPT has been utilized as a unique green colorant (dye) for the printing of cotton, polyester, and cotton/polyester blend fabrics using a silkscreen printing technique through a single printing step and one color system. Color improvement has been achieved by printing different fabrics with a printing paste of MCPT dispersed in 1% WPUA. The MCPT and MCPT in 1% WPUA printed fabrics were evaluated for rubbing, light, washing, and perspiration fastness, UV blocking activity, and antibacterial activity. These findings were established through structural optimization at the DFT/B3LYP/6-31 (G) level and simulations involving several proteins.

Introduction
The textile sector ranks as the second-largest polluter in the world, and synthetic dyes contribute significantly to this environmental pollution. These dyestuffs have extremely dangerous effects on both the environment and human health, including carcinogenicity and mutagenicity. As a result of increased global awareness of environmental issues and a growing focus on cleaner and greener products and technologies, the demand for sustainable dyestuffs for textile coloring has been progressively expanding over the last few decades1,2,3,4. One of these solutions is the use of natural dyes as an alternative to synthetic dyes. Natural dyes were utilized in the apparel, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and food-related sectors. Despite all of the advantageous features of natural dyes, such as their non-polluting effect, 100% biodegradability, wide range of colors and shades, and skin safety, they have a number of drawbacks, such as high cost, poor brightness, limited availability due to changing planting seasons, and solubility issues5,6.
Ultimately, the fashion and textile industries are actively searching for promising coloring materials and techniques. Therefore, more effort is required to develop new and innovative approaches that can fill these gaps, and some novel sustainable dye alternatives with low or even zero environmental impact should be developed7,8,9.
Here are a few of the more inventive approaches applied to the textile coloring sector:
Powder dyes from textile fibers: The pigments are generated by recovering used clothing fibers into a fine powder that may be used as a textile dye. It may be used to generate long-lasting color shades with a washed-out appearance10. Natural or engineered microorganisms: A either synthetic or natural biological system was utilized to color the garment by fixing the dye-producing microorganisms directly onto the textile material, that may minimize the consumption of water by as much as ten times11. Innovative dye and auxiliaries and digital printing. Hybrid pigment: developed from dye that has been chemically bonded to a special polymer particle that interacts with textile fibers12,13.
Furthermore, Waste-derived natural polymers attract considerable attention to achieve zero waste because they are renewable, abundant, biodegradable, and nontoxic14,15,16. In particular, cellulose, which can be obtained from renewable agriculture waste, is one of the most appealing candidates owing to its biodegradability, biocompatibility, and low cost. Moreover, its unique structure provides cellulose with the ability to form intramolecular hydrogen bonding, insolubility in conventional solvents, and susceptibility to undergo modification with functional groups, which render it suitable for a wide range of applications17,18,19,20. The utilization of Nano-fibrillated cellulose (NFC) hydrogel and oxidized cellulose nanocrystals (ONC) as superior color carriers for textile dyes has been demonstrated in the dyeing of cotton, denim, and wool fabric by reactive dyes. This approach has the potential to minimize dyeing waste water by up to 60%, in addition to enhancing color depth and fastness properties8,21,22,23. Moreover, attempts have been made to generate colorants based on cellulose derivatives (azo cellulose derivatives) from cyanoethyl cellulose derivatives that exhibit particularly attractive physical, chemical, and multifunctional properties (UV blocking activity, antimicrobial, and anticancer) depending on the degree of substitution24,25,26,27,28,29.
On the other hand, blended fabrics combine the distinct properties of cotton fabrics of natural origin (wear comfort, reduced pilling, and water absorption) and polyester fabrics of synthetic origin (abrasion resistance, tensile strength, and dimensional stability)30,31. However, to color this type of textile fabric, two different classes of dyes must be used under different coloration conditions, which complicates the coloring procedure. To solve this problem, different treatments, finishing methods, new structures, and fabric surface modifications are being explored. Furthermore, to achieve sustainability, reducing the environmental pollution load as well as the cost, energy, and chemicals used in textile processes is an essential but challenging task32,33,34.
In this study, we synthesized and characterized bromopyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazin-3-yl as a novel Bromo-containing azo cellulosic dye (MCPT) by coupling cyanoethyl cellulose with diazonium chloride to yield a hydrazone, which was then cyclized into pyridine. Furthermore, the effect of synthesized waterborne polyurethane acrylate (WPUA) on the dispersion stability and particle size of MCPT was investigated. The utilizing of MCPT to impart color to cotton, polyester, and cotton/polyester (Co/PET) blend fabrics via silkscreen printing technique, as well as the evaluation their fastness properties, antimicrobial behavior, and ultraviolet (UV) shielding activity, are discussed. A docking study using different proteins and theoretical calculations revealed the formation of hydrogen bond interactions between the dye and the fabric surface, which confirmed the experimental results.

FT-IR was analyzed via Shimadzu FT-IR 8101 PC spectrum and the 1HNMR, 13CNMR were analyzed in DMSO solvent at 300 MHz on a Varian Mercury using TMS as an internal standard. UV–Vis spectrophotometer measurements were carried out by the JASCO V-730 UV–visible/NIR double-beam spectrophotometer, Tokyo, Japan. The scan was performed from 200 to 800 nm in DMSO as solvent. The SEM photos were detected using JEOL JXA-840A electron probe microanalyzer, and the samples were air-dried before captures were at voltage of 10–15 kV using FEI IN SPECTS Company, Philips, Holland. Moreover, TEM analysis were taken with a high-resolution JEOL JEM-2100/Japan. The samples were deposited from an aqueous dilute dispersion on a micro grid covered with a thin carbon film (≈ 200 nm). The Particle Sizing Systems (Santa Barbara Inc., California, USA) were used to estimate the particle size and zeta potential (ζ) of samples. The color strength (K/S) of printed fabrics was determined using the Mini ScanTM XE Hunter-Lab Universal Software, which is based on the equation of Kubelka–Munk: K/S = (1 − R)2/2R, where K denotes the absorption coefficient, S denotes the scattering coefficient, and R denotes the fraction of light reflected at a wavelength of minimum reflectance or maximum absorbance. CIE lab color parameter L* specifies the sample's brightness, a* and b* are chromaticity coordinates specifies the sample's redness-green and yellowing-bluish shift respectively35. The fastness property of washing, rubbing, perspiration, and light is evaluated using standard methods36. The UV protection factor (UPF) was calculated using a UV-Shimadzu 3101-PC-Spectrophotometer and the Australian/New Zealand Standard (AS/NZS-4399-1996), a UPF value that less than 20 indicates poor protection, 20–29 indicates good protection, 30–40 indicates very good protection, and > 40 indicates excellent protection.

Fourier-transform infrared and UV spectroscopy
FT-IR groups of produced heterocyclic cellulosic (MCEC) and (MCPT) were displayed in Fig. 2A. It observed that FT-IR frequencies of manufactured (MCEC) were demonstrated in Fig. 2A and exhibited the attendance of absorption band for hydroxyl, CH groups at 3461 cm−1 and 2940 cm−1 for MCEC. Additionally, in the stretching absorption band of CH υ = 2940 cm−1, the C≡N at MCEC seems at υ = 2265 cm−1 and also CH aliphatic at υ = 2931 cm−1 attributable to the chemical reaction of MCC with C≡N in basic condition (MCEC) display different characteristic absorption bands at 2265 cm−1 and 2928, 1574 and 1411 cm−1 as a result of stretching and bending CH aliphatic band, individually (Fig. 2A). Besides, the FT-IR classification of MCPT presented the hydroxy group of glycose ring at 3320–3345 cm−1; individually, although their NH2 group takes abroad rang with OH of glycoside rings and showed at placing 3211–3205 cm−1, similarly the double bond of the fused cyclic ring presented absorption band at 1510–1499 cm−1and C–O–C presented the band at 1246–1233 cm−1; individually.
Moreover, the UV spectra of MCPT showed maximum absorptions band at λ = 370 nm as displayed in Fig. 2B and this indicated the conjugation of MCPT with alternating double and single bonds in (2R,3R,4S,5R,6S)-6-(((4-amino-7-bromopyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazin-3-yl)methoxy)methyl)-2,5-dimethoxytetrahydro-2H-pyran-3,4-diol which characteristically absorb light in the visible region.

MCPT presented the surface morphology of surface was fishes scratched and Br presence attached to benzene ring manufacture withdrawing character and modification all cellulose surface.
Interaction of WPUA and MCPT
synthesis of waterborne polyurethane acrylate (WPUA) and dispersion of the MCPT on WPUA
The WPUA was synthesized by poly-addition of polyethylene glycol (6000 g/mol) with isophorone diisocyanate, the polymer chain was extended using sorbitol as hydrophilic chain extander to improve the adhesion forces of the polyurethane films, and the reaction was further reacted with hydroxyethyl acrylate, which acts as a UV reactive capping reagent in the presence of (DBTD) (Di-butyl tin dilaurate) as a catalyst under nitrogen atmosphere. The spectral characterization of WPUA was confirmed through FT-IR investigation, as displayed in Fig. 4 as OHstrecting and N–H broadband at 3361 cm−1, st CH2, CH3, CH at 2900 cm−1, C=H Stretching at 2737 cm−1, C=O stretching at 1171 cm−1, st C-NStretching at 1338 cm−1, C–O–C Stretching at 1094 cm−1 and δ: N–H & δ: CH2 at 1540 and 1496 cm−1; respectively as displayed in Fig. 4.
Furthermore, the dispersion of Br cellulose MCPT in 1% WPUA was utilized by the ultra-sonication probe for 2 min as a green tool to make a complete dispersion and separate connected Nano particles44. The plausible interaction between MCPT and WPUA occurred through hydrogen bond interaction, as displayed in the proposed mechanism Fig. 5. The FT-IR of MCPT in (1%) WPUA showed the different absorption bands at OH stretching vibration at 3340 cm−1 and also the NH group showed in same range at 3330 cm−1, C=H the aromatic of phenyl ring appears at 2980 cm−1, CH bending showed at 1460 cm−1, C–Br showed at 810 cm−1 which showed the intramolecular hydrogen bond interaction between OH of MPUA polymer with MCPT and amino group which reduced at showed in Fig. 4.
Additionally, as WPUA particles are well dispersed in aqueous media as dual colloidal systems, waterborne polyurethanes (WPUA) appear to be becoming more common as eco-friendly alternatives to conventional polyurethanes as dispersing and/or binding agents45,46. The dispersion stability and particle size of MCPT were tracked among MCPT aqueous dispersion and aqueous 1% WPUA.
TEM and DLS investigation
Figure 6A,B TEM images of MCPT aqueous dispersion demonstrated that the particles clumped together and accumulated even when subjected to ultra-sonication due to the particles' large surface area as a result of hydrophobic interaction47. Furthermore, MCPT dispersion in 1% WPUA interacted with the polymeric layer of WPUA via hydrogen bond formation. This interaction's steric repellent effect overcame the particles' tendency to collect, flocculate, or re-agglomerate, resulting in improved dispersion stability47,48. As a result, Fig. 6C showed Nano-sized well dispersed MCPT particles. Smaller particles with uniform and homogeneous distribution with a core shell-like shape appeared in the Fig. 6D as a result of the effect of ultrasonic waves on the MCPT in 1% WPUA dispersion.
Furthermore, the TEM results can be supported by the results obtained from the DLS parameters as shown in Table 1 [mean diameter (Ø), variance (PI), standard deviation (Sd), and average zeta potential (ζ)]. The zeta potential value designated the physical stability of the suspensions. It is known that the higher the negative or positive value of the zeta potential, the greater the stability of the suspension49. The outcomes displayed that the highest values of the zeta potential were recorded with the dispersion of MCPT in 1% WPUA and MCPT in 1% WPUA (2 min sonication), which indicates the sufficient stability of these dispersions.
Printing application
Coloring properties of printed fabrics with MCPT and WPUA
Cotton fabric consisted of cellulose united with good dye adhesion ability owing to the presence of –OH functionality50. The interaction between MCPT and cellulosic fabric may be achieved through the formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonding and these results were showed in the following proposed Fig. 7A,B,C) which showed the presence of amino group and OH of cellulose in MCPT dye can be easily interact with the fabrics in the OH of polyester, Cotton and CO/PET fabrics which gave stability and make staining of the dye on the fabrics.
The FT-IR spectral of printed fabrics are illustrated in Fig. 8. The changes that occurred in the MCPT printed cotton spectrum may be a result of the interaction between cellulose–OH and MPCT–NH2, though hydrogen bond formation led to a reduction of absorption intensity bands around 3330 and 3270 cm−1 in the neat cotton fabric spectrum. The unbounded OH in WPUA could be the reason for the additional increase in the-OH absorption band in the FT-IR spectrum of MCPT in WPUA printed cotton fabric. Alternatively, the polyester fabric has no reactive functional group to interact with colorant material. The water-insoluble nonionic MCPT may be worked as a dispersed dye and MCPT particles can interact with the polyester chains due to their low dissociation in water. At the temperature of 130 °C or higher, thermal agitation reasons the polyester's molecular structure to developed more amorphous, allowing MCPT particles to enter and adhere to the polyester fiber by van der Waals and dipole forces51.
IR spectrum of neat and printed polyester fabrics may help to clarify this interaction. The fig demonstrated that there was virtually no difference in the spectrum bands of MCPT printed polyester from a neat one because the concentration of absorbed MCPT in the polyester fabric was too low to exhibit its excitation in the spectrum52. However, the spectra of printed polyester by WPUA dispersion of MCTP revealed a broad absorption band. This might be related to WPUA's unbounded OH group. Furthermore, the situation is interesting somewhere in CO/PET fabric, because consists of both callouses and polyester fiber, where the two proposed mechanisms of interaction are predicted to occur, as seen in the spectra of neat CO/PET, MCTP, and MCTP in WPUA printed fabrics, as presented in Fig. 8. The Fig. 9 exhibited the photographic photos of printed cotton, polyester and specially blended (cotton polyester blend 50:50) fabrics by MCPT and MCPT dispersed in 1% WPUA (before and after ultra-sonication) using silk screen technique. The color strength (K/S) and CIE lab color parameters of printed fabrics were evaluated and illustrated in Table 2. According to the data, all printed fabrics with MCPT have a significant K/S value. Some improvement in K/S was observed with all printed fabrics after printing with ultrasonic dispersion MCPT compared to those printed MCPT, which could be accredited to the reduction in MCPT particle size due to the ultrasonic effect leading to more color penetration. On the other hand, the printed fabrics with MCPT dispersed in 1% WPUA introduced more enhancement in K/S of prints due to the binding properties of WPUA (forming a thin film covering the colorant particles after curing and restricting their release or discharge), while there was no notable improvement in the value of the blend sample's color depth53. Although applying an ultrasonic dispersion of (MCPT in 1% WPUA) to the printing paste did not enhance the K/S values of polyester fabric, it achieved improve the K/S values of cotton and blend samples. All these changes in color and hue are expressed by changes in the values of L*, a*, and b*. The analysis of color parameters a*, and b* of printed MCPT samples revealed that all printed samples exhibit a yellowish-green shift, which is compatible with the samples' apparent color. Furthermore, the L values revealed that all samples have values greater than 50, indicating that they are in the lighter area, in differing degrees depending on the intensity of the color on the printed sample's surface.
Ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) evaluation
Table 3 demonstrates the ultra-violet shielding activity of printed fabrics by MCPT and MCPT in 1% WPUA before and after ultra-sonic action as UPF values. The synthesized MCPT has excellent UV-blocking activity with all printed fabrics, as shown by the UPF values, according to the findings. However, it appeared that the application of ultrasonic resulted in a reduction of UPF values of both polyester and CO/PET prints. The UV capping activity of the acrylate portion of polyurethane acrylate may be responsible for the enhancement of UPF values of the printed fabrics by MCPT in 1% WPUA46. Ultrasonic action of MCPT in 1% WPUA was also shown to reduce the UV protection value of cotton and polyester prints.
Fatness properties of dye
The fastness properties of printed fabrics are represented in Table 4. The results were printed samples with MCPT (2 min sonication) with good light fastness. Better light fastness was observed with samples printed by MCPT in 1% WPUA (the samples become darker). The washing and perspiration fastness showed values ranged from good to very good with printed fabrics with MCPT. Further improvement in fastness properties was observed with the fabrics printed by MCPT dispersed in 1% WPUA. This may be clarified by the fact that the printing process is a surface application and its major drawback is related to absorption like in washing and rubbing, and WPUA works as a film former macromolecule that taps the colorant particles, So the formed film resisted the surface abrasion and limited the colorant release, which resulted in an improvement in fastness properties and coloration performance53.
Biological action
Antibacterial investigation
The antibacterial action of fabrics was established compared to inhibitory properties on the development of G+ and G− bacterial strains as displayed in Table 5. The presence of NH2 on MCPT and the OH groups in cotton increases the activity of antibacterial activity, so the action with cotton exhibited higher activity compared to all strains, while it exhibited less activity with polyester and a cotton/polyester blend, and no activity with polyester. Furthermore, the presence of MCPT with 1% dispersed WPUA polymer revealed that it increased the activity of printed fabric and showed excellent activity with all types of antibacterial strains. Also, the presence of polyurethane with MCPT increases the efficacy of polyurethane against antimicrobials, which depends on the nature and hydrophilicity of WPUA, which provides a good opportunity for friendly interaction with aqueous germ suspension, that improves the presentation of polyurethanes54. The result of the analysis revealed that the printed fabric efficiency against microbial species (gram-negative and positive bacteria) varies depending on the bacterial strain. However, the highest anti-microbial effect was detected against Bacillus subtilis, as shown in Table 5 and Fig. 10
Docking investigation
Docking simulation of MCPT, 1%WPUA, and staining compounds with different fabrics was utilized using the MOE program38 to recognize the antibacterial action to be well-matched with experimental investigation. These monomers of compounds were docked with Crystal structure of Escherichia coli MenB in complex with substrate analogue, OSB-NCoA (PDBID: 3t88)39 and the Crystal structure of the tyrosine phosphatase Cps4B from Streptococcus pneumonia TIGR4 (PDBID: 2wje)40 as demonstrated in Table 6 and Fig. 11 It was observed that the moderate required energy between MCPT/polyester fabric monomer with PDBID: 3t88 showed -12.422 kcal/mol and shortage bond length 1.58–3.22 Å and higher binding with cotton with the binding energy − 13.7446 kcal/mol due to electrostatic hydrogen bonding interaction and shortage length 2.05 Å and the lowest energy with CO/PET with − 11.156 kcal/mol and length 1.56 Å as showed in Fig. 11A also, binding energy of these dispersant fabric MCPT/polyester with PDBID:2wje showed − 11.8775 kcal/mol and length 2.62 Å and MCPT/Cotton showed excellent binding with − 13.0344 kcal/mol with length 1.47Å while the least binding MCPT with CO/PE − 10.8244 kcal/mol and shortage length 2.45 Å as displayed in Fig. 10B and these result compatible with experimental study. Furthermore, the docking investigation of dispersant MCPT with 1%WPUA with different fabrics which showed the most binding energy of PDBID:3t88 and PDBID:2wje with MCPT with 1% WPUA and CO/PET (− 14.325 kcal/mol, − 12.632 kcal/mol; respectively) and length range 1.95–3.16 Å and showed different amino acid linkage, also the binding energy of MCPT/1%WPUA with cotton showed − 13.945, − 12.096 kcal/mol and length 1.67–3.07 Å showed different hydrogen bonding with –OH of cotton fabric; respectively, while the fabric of polyester showed the less binding interaction as displayed in Fig. 11C,D and Table 6.

Conclusion
In this elucidation, we synthesized the novel Br-cellulosic dye fused heterocycles through the reaction of C≡N cellulose with diazonium salts to give MCPTdye which was confirmed through different spectral analysis, also MCPT dispersion in 1% WPUA improved its dispersion stability. the prepared MCPTdye effectively colored all of the polyester, cotton, and CO/PET fabrics with considerable color depth and good fastness properties. In the printing past, the application of MCPTdye in 1% WPUA dispersion improved the color fastness properties of all printed fabrics. All MCPT dye-printed fabrics demonstrated excellent UV-blocking activity. Furthermore, MCPTdye dispersion in 1% WPUA improved UPF rating of printed fabrics. Antimicrobial activity was examined in MCPTdye in 1% WPUA printed fabrics and showed excellent activity. Furthermore, docking stimulation and optimization of these fabrics with MCPT revealed a high level of interaction, confirming the experimental result.
