The reaction temperatures can be varied within a relatively wide range in processes (A) and (B) according to the invention. The reactions are in general carried out at temperatures between 80.degree. C. and 150.degree. C., preferably at temperatures between 90.degree. C. and 110.degree. C.

The reactions are carried out and the products are worked up by generally customary methods.

The nitro compounds obtained as intermediate products in the preparation of the new compounds of the formula (II) by a condensation reaction between heterocyclic compounds (VIII) and aldehydes (IX) are in general further reduced without intermediate isolation However, it is also possible for these intermediate products to be isolated by a process in which, for example, the mixture is poured onto water or alcohol when the condensation reaction has ended and the product is precipitated by increasing the pH, for example with alkali metal or alkaline earth metal hydroxides, carbonates or bicarbonates, ammonia or amines.

Suitable heterocyclic compounds (VIII) are, for example, 2-methylbenzothiazole, 2-methylbenzoxazole, 2-methylbenzimidazole, 2-methylquinoline, 4-methylquinoline, 6-chloro-2-methylquinoline, 6-methoxy-2-methylquinoline, 2,3,3-trimethylindolenine, 5-methoxy-2,3,3-trimethylindolenine, 2-methylpyridine and 4-methylpyridine.

The invention furthermore relates to the use of the chromogenic carbonylaminostyrenes of the formula (I) for recording materials which can be used for pressure-sensitive copying, or thermoreactive or electrochromic recording materials, these recording materials also containing an acid colour developer An individual compound of the formula (I) or mixtures of various compounds of the formula (I), for example mixtures of compounds of the formula. (I) which differ only to the extent that the ##STR22## groups in the molecular part Z are in the ortho- and para-position, can be used for such recording materials.

Acid developers which may be mentioned in particular are clays, acid oxides and acid salts, as well as monomeric or polymeric phenols or carboxylic acids.

The colour-forming agents according to the invention can be employed as a mixture with one or more other known colour-forming agents, for example 3,3-bis(aminophenyl)-phthalides, 3,3-bis(indolyl)-phthalides,3-aminofluorans, 1,3-benzoxazines, spirodipyrans, chromenoindoles, phenoxazines, phenothiazines, carbazolylmethanes, 4,4-diaryldihydroquinazolones or other triarylmethane leuco dyestuffs, in particular to produce green, violet, blue or black colorations.

A pressure-sensitive material consists, for example, of at least one pair of sheets which contain at least one colour-forming agent of the formula (I), dissolved or dispersed in a non-volatile organic solvent, and an acid developer.

Such processes and formulations are known, for example, from U.S. Pat. Nos. 2 800 457, 2 800 458, 2 948 753, 3 096 189 and 3 193 404, and from German Offenlegungsschriften (German Published Specifications) 2 555 080 and 2 700 937.

To prevent premature activation of the colour-forming agents present in the pressure-sensitive recording material, the colour-forming agents are preferably enclosed in microcapsules which as a rule can be crushed by pressure.

Suitable capsule materials are, for example, gelatin/gum arabic, polyamides, polyurethanes, polysulphonamides, polyesters, polycarbonate, polysulphonates, polyacrylates and phenol- or urea-formaldehyde condensates, such as are described, for example, in M. Gutcho, Capsule Technology and Microencapsulation, Noyes Data Corporation 1972; G. Baster, Microencapsulation, Processes and Applications, published by J. E. Vandegaar and German Offenlegungsschriften (German Published Specifications) 2 237 545 and 2 119 933.

Microcapsules whose shells consist of polyaddition products of polyisocyanates and polyamides are preferably used in the process according to the invention.

Isocyanates, amines, solvents and a suitable production process for such microcapsules are described, for example, in DE-OS (German Published Specification) 3 203 059.

Thermoreactive recording systems include, for example, heat-sensitive recording and copying materials and papers.

Such a material is described, for example, in German Offenlegungsschrift (German Published Specification) 2 555 080.

Suitable developers are the same electron acceptors as are used in pressure-sensitive papers, preferably phenolic compounds, which are described, for example, in German Patent Specification 1 251 348, and boric acid and organic, preferably aliphatic, dicarboxylic acids.

Another suitable thermoreactive development system is that described in DE-OS (German Published Specification) 3 337 296, in which acid-modified polymers, preferably of acrylonitrile, act as developers.

The compounds according to the invention are superior to the conventional yellow colour developer compounds in the sum of their properties (intensity, migration, untreated paper coloration and light-fastness).
