A laundry care composition comprises a laundry care ingredient or adjunct and at least one compound that is capable of changing from a first color state (i.e., the initial color state in the composition) to a second color state that is perceptibly different from the first color state. A method for treating textile articles comprises the steps of: (a) providing a laundry care composition as described above; (b) adding the laundry care composition to a liquid medium; and (c) placing the textile articles in the liquid medium.

The present disclosure provides a laundry care composition having at least one laundry care ingredient and at least one leuco composition conforming to Formula (I):
Ar.sup.1Ar.sup.2Ar.sup.3CH  (I)
wherein Ar.sup.2 and Ar.sup.3 are independently a carbocyclic aryl or heteroaryl, and Ar.sup.1 is selected from the group consisting of: unsubstituted phenyl, electron deficient carbocyclic aryl, and heteroaryl. The present disclosure also provides a method of determining an authentic laundry care composition and test kits for detecting authentic laundry care compositions.

The invention relates to compounds which are suitable for use in electronic devices, and electronic devices, in particular organic electroluminescent devices, containing said compounds.

A laundry care composition including (a) at least one laundry care ingredient and (b) a leuco composition. The leuco composition has a first color state and a second color state and the mole ratio of second color state to first color state is from 2:98 to 5:95. Also disclosed are methods of determining the approximate functional age of a laundry care composition comprising the steps of (a) providing a laundry care composition that includes at least one laundry care ingredient and a leuco composition, (b) providing a functional age scale that includes a plurality of distinct colors that correspond to a unique functional age and (c) comparing the color of the laundry care composition with the functional age scale.

A method for treating textile articles including the steps of: (a) providing a laundry care composition comprising a leuco composition; (b) adding the laundry care composition to a liquid medium; (c) placing the textile articles in contact with the liquid medium; (d) depositing at least some portion of the leuco composition onto the textile articles; (e) optionally, rinsing the textile; and (f) drying the textile articles, wherein the leuco composition comprises a leuco colorant with a Photoresistance Index of less than or equal to 30.
