| (57) Improved bleaching or detergent bleach compositions are disclosed which comprise
a percompound, such as sodium perborate, and
i) a mixture of at least two peroxyacid bleach precursors
 wherein R₁ is a lower alkyl group containing 1-4 carbon atoms, or a phenyl group;
R₂ is a higher alkyl, aryl or alicyclic radical (substituted or unsubstituted) containing
6-20 carbon atoms; n is 0-1; m is 1-4 and L is a leaving group which exerts an electron-attracting
effect, or
ii) a peroxyacid bleach precursor of the formula
 wherein R₁, R₂, L and n are as defined above, and mʹ is 1-3. The compositions show improved bleaching and cleaning effect on multistained fabrics.
