The Examples which follow illustrate the preparation. Parts and percentages are by weight, unless stated otherwise.

The compounds of the formula I are useful for dyeing natural and synthetic polyamides, in particular wool and nylon. In the form of the long-chain ammonium salts, they can also be used as dyes for printing inks, for pastes for ballpoint pens and for inks.

EXAMPLES

EXAMPLE 1 ##STR6##

278 parts of 4-nitro-2-aminophenol are stirred in 1,800 parts of water, and dissolved with 720 parts of dilute hydrochloric acid. 1,300 parts of ice are added, and 544 parts by volume of 3.3 N sodium nitrite solution are run in over 15 minutes. Stirring is continued for 10 minutes in the presence of a slight excess of nitrite, after which the excess is destroyed with a little amidosulfonic acid. The diazo suspension is then run, in the course of 20 minutes, into a coupling solution of 578 parts of phenyl I acid in 3,600 parts of water, 400 parts of ice and 160 parts of NaOH (calculated as 100%). Coupling is complete after 30 minutes. The pH is brought to 7.5 with 72 parts by volume of dilute hydrochloric acid, and the suspension of the azo dye is diluted with 6,000 parts of water.

The press cake of the 1:1 Cr complex consisting of 94 parts of chromium and 692 parts of the monoazo dye obtained from diazotized 1-amino-2-hydroxynaphthalene-4-sulfonic acid and 2-hydroxynaphthalene is then added, the mixture is heated to 90.degree. C. and the pH is kept at 7.5-8 by the dropwise addition of dilute sodium hydroxide solution. The solution is filtered to clarify it, and the dye is then isolated by spray drying. 2,350 parts of a black powder are obtained. The dye dyes polyamide-containing materials in navy hues having very good fastness properties. The fastness to milling is noteworthy, reaching the level of afterchrome dyes.

Dyes having similar properties are obtained by the same process, using the 1:1 complexes below.

EXAMPLE 15 ##STR20##

77 parts of 5-nitro-2-aminophenol are stirred with 500 parts of water, 250 parts of ice and 200 parts of hydrochloric acid. Diazotization is carried out by adding 150 parts by volume of 3.3 N sodium nitrite solution at from 5.degree. to 7.degree. C. The mixture is stirred for one hour, after which a small excess of nitrite is destroyed with amidosulfonic acid. The diazo suspension is run into a solution of 170 parts of phenyl I acid in 1500 parts of water and 65 parts by volume of 50% strength sodium hydroxide solution, the temperature of the solution being kept at 10.degree. C. by adding ice. Coupling is complete after a short time, and the pH is brought to 7-7.5 with dilute hydrochloric acid. The press cake of the 1:1 Cr complex consisting of 26 parts of chromium and 220 parts of the monoazo dye obtained from diazotized 1-amino-2-hydroxy-6-nitronaphthalene-4-sulfonic acid and 2-hydroxynaphthalene is then added. The mixture is diluted with 1,000 parts of water and heated to 90.degree. C., and a pH of 8-8.5 is maintained at this temperature by adding dilute sodium hydroxide solution. The addition reaction is complete within one hour. The solution is filtered to clarify it, and the dye is then isolated by evaporating down the solution. 600 parts of a black electrolyte-containing powder are obtained.

Wool, nylon and leather are dyed in black hues having good fastness properties.

Dyes having similar properties are obtained by subjecting the 1:1 complexes in the table below to the addition reaction:

EXAMPLE 19 ##STR24##

19.9 parts of 4,6-dinitro-2-aminophenol in 100 parts of water and ice are cooled to 5.degree. C., 10 parts by volume of dilute hydrochloric acid are added, diazotization is effected in a conventional manner with 30 parts by volume of sodium nitrite solution, and the product is then coupled with 85 parts of phenyl-I acid in the manner described. Coupling takes place very rapidly at pH 9. The suspension of the azo dye is heated to 80.degree. C., and the press cake of the 1:1 Cr complex consisting of 5.2 parts of chromium and 39 parts of the azo dye obtained from diazotized 4-nitro-2-aminophenol-6-sulfonic acid and 2-hydroxynaphthalene is added. The mixture is stirred for 3 hours at 80.degree.-90.degree. C., and the pH is kept at 8.0 by adding dilute sodium hydroxide solution. The asymmetric 1:2 metal complex is salted out from the hot solution with 300 parts of sodium chloride and is isolated by filtering it off under suction. When the product has been dried, 180 parts of a black powder are obtained.

Black dyeings having very good fastness properties are obtained on natural and synthetic polyamides.
