The dyestuffs according to the invention can be used for dyeing natural and synthetic fibrous materials, especially for dyeing polyamide fibres in level, yellow to orange shades of very good fastness to light, the dyeing yield being good. The dyestuffs are absorbed well on polyamide fibres even in a neutral to weakly acid dyebath. By polyamide fibres there are here especially understood fibres of synthetic polyamides such as .epsilon.-polycaprolactam or condensation products of adipic acid and hexamethylenediamine. The dyestuffs are used either in the form of the free acids or in the form of their salts, especially of the alkali metal salts, preferably of the sodium or potassium salts, or of the ammonium salts.

EXAMPLE 1

3.51 of 2,5-dichloro-4-amino-benzenesulphonic acid are dissolved in 30 ml of water by addition of 0.8 g of sodium hydroxide solution. 1 g of sodium nitrite is then also dissolved in the mixture. The solution thus obtained is added dropwise to 100 g of ice and 10 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid. The whole is stirred for a further 2 hours at 0.degree. C, the excess nitrite is destroyed with amidosulphonic acid and a solution of 3.04 g of 1-(2-hydroxy-2-methyl-propyl)-2-phenylindole in 75 ml of glacial acetic acid is then added dropwise. After completion of coupling, the dyestuff, which in the form of the free acid corresponds to the formula ##STR30## is isolated by filtration, washed with water and dried in vacuo at 40 .degree. to 50.degree.

0.1 g of the dyestuff of Example 1 is dissolved in 100 ml of hot water, 5 ml of 10% strength ammonium acetate solution are added and the mixture is diluted to a volume of 500 ml with water. 10 g of polyamide fibres are introduced into the dyebath, the latter is brought to the boil over the course of 20 minutes, 4 ml of 10% strength acetic acid are added and the mixture is kept at the boil for 1 hour. The fibres are then rinsed and dried at 70.degree.-80.degree. C. A yellow dyeing which exhibits excellent fastness properties is obtained.

EXAMPLE 2

3.68 g of 2-trifluoromethyl-4-methylaminosulphonylaniline are diazotised in a mixture of 100 ml of glacial acetic acid and 10 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid by means of an aqueous solution of 1 g of sodium nitrite at 0.degree. C.

The diazonium salt solution thus obtained is added dropwise at 0.degree. to 5.degree. C, to a solution of 4.2 g of 1-(2'-sulphatobutyl)-2-methylindole in sulphuric acid. After completion of coupling, the dyestuff, which in the form of the free acid corresponds to the formula ##STR31## is filtered off, washed with water and dried in vacuo at 40.degree. C.

The same dyestuff is also obtained if the dyestuff of the formula ##STR32## is warmed in concentrated sulphuric acid to 40.degree. C for 3 hours. The product is isolated by pouring the mixture out onto ice and buffering to pH 2 with saturated sodium acetate solution at 0.degree. C. The dissolved dyestuff is salted out with sodium chloride and is isolated in the usual manner. The dyestuff dyes polyamide fibres and polyamide fabrics from a weakly acid or neutral bath in yellow shades having a good level of fastness.

EXAMPLE 2a

An aqueous solution of 1-(2-sulphatobutyl)-2-methylindole is obtained when 1-(2-hydroxybutyl)-2-methylindole, in concentrated sulphuric acid, is warmed to 30.degree.-40.degree. C and the reaction mixture is then poured out onto ice. The mixture is buffered with an aqueous sodium acetate solution until a clear solution has been produced, which is employed direct for the preparation of the dyestuff.

EXAMPLE 3

4.3 g of 2,5-dichloro-4-amino-N,N-diethyl-benzene-sulphonic acid amide in 100 ml of acetic acid and 10 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid are diazotised with an aqueous solution of 1 g of sodium nitrite at 0.degree. C. The resulting diazonium salt solution is added dropwise at 0.degree.-5.degree. C to an aqueous solution of 5.2 g of 1-(2-hydroxy-2-phenylethyl)-2-methylindole-sulphonic acid. After completion of coupling, the dyestuff of the formula ##STR33## separates out. It is filtered off and rinsed with cold water. The dyestuff dyes polyamide in fast yellow shades.

EXAMPLE 3a

The 1-(2-hydroxy-2-phenylethyl)-2-methylindole-sulphonic acid employed as the coupling component is obtained as an aqueous solution in accordance with the following instructions: 27.3 g of 2-methylindole-sulphonic acid are dissolved in 50 ml of dimethylsulphoxide and 7.7 g of 86% strength potassium hydroxide solution are added. 18 g of styrene oxide are then added dropwise over the course of 1.5 hours. The mixture is stirred for a further 3 hours at 50.degree. C and is poured out onto ice. The 1-(2-hydroxy-2-phenylethyl)-2-methylindole-sulphonic acid thus obtained can be employed, without isolation, for the preparation of dyestuffs.

If the procedure described in Examples 1 to 3 is followed and the compounds listed in column II of the table which follows are employed as diazo components, and the compounds listed in column I of the table which follows are employed as coupling components, valuable water-soluble dyestuffs are obtained, which dye polyamide, from a weakly acid or neutral bath, in yellow to orange shades.
