EXAMPLE 1
A solution of 18.9 parts of sodium 3-bromo-4-amino azobenzene-4'-sulfonate in 250 parts by volume of water and 15 parts by volume of a 23 percent strength sodium nitrite solution is run into a solution of 20 parts by volume of 10 N hydrochloric acid and 2 parts of an adduct of sperm oil alcohol and ethylene oxide (in the ratio of 1:25) in 75 parts by volume of water, and the temperature is kept at from 15.degree. to 20.degree. C. by adding about 50 parts of ice. After stirring for two hours at this temperature and destroying the excess nitrous acid with amidosulfonic acid, the diazotization mixture is gradually combined with a solution of 15.5 parts of 2,6-bis-(2'-hydroxyethoxy-ethylamino)-3-cyano-4-methyl-pyridine in 200 parts by volume of water and 10 parts by volume of 10 N hydrochloric acid, the solution having first been cooled with 200 parts of ice. Coupling is terminated by adding 150 parts by volume of a saturated sodium acetate solution to bring the pH to 4.5. The reaction mixture is then brought to pH 10 with sodium hydroxide solution and heated to 80.degree. C. to improve the filtrability. The dye of the formula ##STR11## is then filtered off at room temperature, washed with a 5 percent strength sodium chloride solution and dried at 80.degree. C. A red powder is obtained, which gives a red solution in water and dyes nylon fabrics in red hues having very good fastness to light and to wet treatments.
EXAMPLE 2
A suspension of the diazo compound of 16.7 parts of sodium 3-chloro-4-amino-azobenzene-4'-sulfonate, obtained as described in Example 1, is run, at from 5.degree. to 10.degree. C., into a solution of 12.3 parts of 2-(2'-hydroxyethoxy-ethylamino)-3-cyano-4-methyl-6-aminopyridine in 250 parts by volume of water and 6 parts by volume of 10 N hydrochloric acid and coupling is effected by adding 75 parts by volume of a saturated sodium acetate solution. To precipitate the dye of the formula ##STR12## 275 parts by volume of a saturated sodium chloride solution are added to the coupling mixture at from 80.degree. to 90.degree. C. After filtering off at room temperature, washing with 5% strength sodium chloride solution and drying at 80.degree. C., a red water-soluble powder is obtained, which dyes nylon knitted fabrics in red hues having very good fastness to light and to wet treatments.
EXAMPLE 3
The suspension of the diazo compound obtained as described in Example 1 is freed from excess nitrous acid, a solution of 17.6 parts of 2-[(4-sulfophenyl)-ethylamino]-3-cyano-4-methyl-6-aminopyridine in 200 parts by volume of water and 3 parts by volume of a 50% strength sodium hydroxide solution is run in, and coupling is effected to slowly adding 100 parts by volume of a saturated sodium acetate solution.
The resulting dye of the formula ##STR13## is salted out with 150 parts of sodium chloride, filtered off and dried at 80.degree. C. This gives a red powder, which dyes nylon knitted fabric in very fast red hues.
EXAMPLE 4
A diazotization mixture obtained from 16.7 parts of sodium 3-chloro-4-amino-azobenzene-4'-sulfonate as described in Example 1, is run slowly into a solution of 14 parts of 2-phenylindole-N-propionamide in 400 parts by volume of dimethylformamide and coupling is effected by slowly adding 100 parts by volume of saturated sodium acetate solution. The dye of the formula ##STR14## is filtered off, washed with 2% strength sodium chloride solution and dried at 80.degree. C. This gives a red powder which dyes nylon material in fast yellowish red hues.
EXAMPLE 5
The diazotization mixture from Example 1 is run into an aqueous suspension of 2-amino-8-naphthol-6-sulfonic acid which has been obtained by precipitating a well-stirred solution of 13.8 parts of the sodium salt of this acid with hydrochloric acid until the pH is 2. After stirring overnight, at pH .apprxeq.1 and room temperature, coupling is complete. The dye of the formula ##STR15## is neutralized by adding sodium hydroxide solution, precipitated by adding 500 parts by volume of a saturated sodium chloride solution, filtered off, washed with a 5% strength sodium chloride solution and dried at 80.degree. C. This gives a bluish black powder which dyes synthetic nylon in a reddish blue hue having good fastness properties.
EXAMPLE 6
The suspension of the diazo compound obtained as described in Example 1 from 18.9 parts of sodium 3-bromo-4-amino-azobenzene-4'-sulfonate is run, at from 0.degree. to +5.degree. C., into a mixture of 50 parts of phenol, 100 parts by volume of water, 100 parts of ice and 18 parts of sodium carbonate. The dye of the formula ##STR16## crystallizes out, and is filtered off, washed with a little cold water and dried at 80.degree. C. A yellowish brown water-soluble powder is obtained, which dyes nylon fabric in yellowish orange hues having good fastness properties.
EXAMPLE 7
24.2 parts of the dye from Example 6 are dissolved in a warm mixture of 100 parts by volume of water and 300 parts by volume of ethanol. This solution is mixed with 3.5 parts of sodium carbonate, 3.5 parts of a 50% strength sodium hydroxide solution and 7.5 parts of ethyl chloride and the mixture is stirred for 24 hours at 100.degree. C. in a closed vessel, resulting in an autogenous pressure of 7 atmospheres gauge. The reaction mixture is filtered at room temperature and the filter residue is washed with 200 parts by volume of 75% strength ethanol and dried at 80.degree. C. The resulting dye, of the formula ##STR17## dyes nylon material in yellowish orange hues having very good fastness to light and to wet treatments.
EXAMPLE 8
The dispersion of the diazo compound obtained as described in Example 1 from 16.7 parts of sodium 3-chloro-4-amino-azobenzene-4'-sulfonate is combined, under the conditions described in Example 4, with a solution of 12.6 parts of acetoacetic acid 2,4-dimethoxyanilide is dimethylformamide and coupling is effected by adding sodium acetate. This gives the dye of the formula ##STR18## which dyes nylon material in a reddish yellow hue which has very good fastness to light and to wet treatments.
EXAMPLE 9
6 parts of acetylacetone, added all at once, and 250 parts of ice are introduced into the dispersion of the diazo compound of Example 1 and the pH is brought to 5 by adding 150 parts by volume of a saturated sodium acetate solution. After stirring overnight whilst the mixture returns to room temperature, the dye is filtered off, washed with a little water and stirred, in the form of a paste, into 500 parts by volume of water and 10 parts of hydrazine hydrate for 3 hours at .about.40.degree. C. After filtering off, washing with water and drying at 80.degree. C., a yellow powder of the formula ##STR19## is obtained, which dyes nylon material in yellow hues having very good fastness to light and to wet treatments.

EXAMPLE 74
22.9 parts of sodium 3,5-dibromo-4-amino-azobenzene-4'-sulfonate are dispersed by pouring a solution in 350 parts by volume of water, which is still warm and contains 2 parts of an adduct of sperm oil alcohol and ethylene oxide (in the ratio of 1:25), onto 350 parts of ice and 17.5 parts by volume of a 23% strength sodium nitrite solution.
