Preferably, the cyanuric chloride or cyanuric fluoride is initially reacted in approximately stoichiometric amounts with one of the aminoazo compounds of the formulae (15) and (16) at a temperature of -5.degree. to 20.degree. C., the pH being kept neutral to slightly acid, preferably at 5 to 7, by addition of suitable bases, for example alkali metal bases, such as lithium hydroxide or carbonate, sodium hydroxide or carbonate or potassium hydroxide or carbonate. The resulting triazine derivative can be separated off, or the reaction mixture can be used directly for a further reaction. Approximately stoichiometric amounts of the other of the aminoazo compounds of the formulae (15) and (16) are advantageously added to the resulting reaction mixture or the triazine derivative which has been separated off beforehand, and this is reacted with the triazine derivative at slightly elevated temperature, preferably at 30.degree. to 50.degree. C., and at a neutral to slightly acid pH, which is preferably 6 to 7. If the compounds of the formulae (15) and (16) are identical aminoazo compounds, about 2 equivalents of this aminoazo dye is reacted with 1 equivalent of cyanuric chloride or cyanuric fluoride, the temperature preferably first being kept at -5.degree. to 20.degree. C. and then being increased to about 30.degree. to 50.degree. C.

The compounds of the formulae (15) and (16) am known or can be prepared analogously to known compounds. These azo compounds can thus be obtained by generally customary diazotization and coupling reactions.

The diazotization is usually carried out with a nitrite, for example with an alkali metal nitrite, such as sodium nitrite, in a mineral acid medium, for example in a hydrochloric acid medium, at temperatures of, for example, -5.degree. to 30.degree. C, and preferably at 0.degree. to 10.degree. C.

The coupling is usually carried out at acid, neutral to weakly alkaline pH values and at temperatures of, for example, -5.degree. to 30.degree. C., preferably 0.degree. to 25.degree. C.

The dyes of the formula (1) are present either in the form of their free acid or, preferably, as salts thereof.

Salts are for example, the alkali metal or ammonium s or the salts of an anic amine.

Examples are the sodium, lithium, potassium or ammonium salts or the salt of mono-, di- or triethanolamine.

The azo dyes of the formula (1) according to the invention are suitable for dyeing and printing, in particular of fibre materials containing nitrogen or hydroxyl groups, paper or leather, for example textile fibre materials of cellulose, silk and, in particular, wool and synthetic polyamides, by methods known per se. The azo dyes of the formula (1) according to the invention can be used for dyeing and printing in the generally customary form, which has been prepared beforehand if appropriate.

Level dyeings with good all round fastness properties, in particular good fastness to rubbing, wet processing, wet rubbing and light, are obtained. The dyes according to the invention furthermore have a very good exhaustion capacity. The dyes according to the invention moreover have a very good build-up capacity and can very readily be combined with other dyes. The abovementioned textile material can be in widely varying processing forms, for example as fibre, yarn, woven fabric or knitted fabric.

After some time, excess nitrite is destroyed with sulfamic acid.

To prepare a second solution, 10.85 parts of 2-methoxyanilinomethanesulfonic acid are dissolved in 100 parts of water at a pH of 8. After admixing 6.3 parts of sodium bicarbonate, the diazo component solution obtainable as described above is added dropwise and the pH is kept at a value of 6.5 to 7 by addition of a further 1.8 parts of sodium bicarbonate. The resulting compound is then precipitated out by addition of sodium chloride and filtered off. 72 parts of a compound which, in the form of the free acid, corresponds to the formula ##STR24## are obtained.
