The compounds of the formula (I) according to the invention can be employed in the form of solid or liquid dyestuff preparations. They are preferably employed in the form of aqueous preparations, in particular solutions. These aqueous dyestuff preparations in general comprise one or more dyestuffs of the formula (I), if appropriate suitable organic solvents, which can also include hydrotropic compounds, and further auxiliaries and/or stabilizers.
The aqueous dyestuff preparations can be prepared by dissolving the dyestuff salts in water, or from the condensation solutions, which are subjected to desalination, for example by pressure permeation, if appropriate, and/or by addition of one or more of the abovementioned organic solvents, if appropriate at elevated temperatures (30.degree. to 100.degree.

The function of viscosity regulators can be taken over, for example, by the organic solvents.
Preferred preparations are aqueous dyestuff preparations, in particular dyestuff solutions, having the following composition:
0.5 to 20% by weight, in particular 1 to 15% by weight, of one or more dyestuffs of the type mentioned,
50 to 99.5% by weight, in particular 85 to 99% by weight, of water,
0 to 50% by weight, in particular 0 to 20% by weight, of one or more organic solvents and
0 to 30% by weight, in particular 0 to 5% by weight, of additives which influence the viscosity and/or surface tension,
the sum of the constituents mentioned adding up to 100% by weight.
The aqueous dyestuff preparations can be prepared by dissolving the dyestuff salts in water, or from the condensation solutions, which are subjected, if appropriate, to isomer exchange and/or desalination, for example by pressure permeation, and/or by addition of one or more of the abovementioned organic solvents, if appropriate at elevated temperatures (30.degree. to 100.degree. C., in particular 30.degree. to 50.degree. C.) and with the addition of inorganic and organic bases; if appropriate, customary ionic or nonionic additives can also additionally be used, for example those with which the viscosity can be reduced and/or the surface tension increased.
Instead of the salts of (I), it is also possible to employ the corresponding free acids in combination with at least equimolar amounts of the corresponding organic or inorganic bases.
Inorganic bases which can be employed are, for example, lithium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, lithium carbonate, sodium carbonate or potassium carbonate.
Organic bases which can be used are, for example, ethanolamine, diethanolamine, triethanolamine, N-methylethanolamine, N,N-dimethylethanolamine, N-methyldiethanolamine, 1-amino-2-propanol, 2-amino-l-propanol, di-isopropanolamine, N-2-hydroxyethyldiisopropanolamine, Tris, N,N,N-�2-(2'-hydroxyethoxy)-ethyl!amine or sodium methylate, lithium ethylate or potassium tert-butylate.
The aqueous dyestuff preparations according to the invention are also suitable, for example, as printing inks, which can also be employed, in particular, as recording liquids by the ink-jet method.
The invention therefore also relates to the use of the aqueous dyestuff preparations according to the invention as a recording liquid for ink-jet recording systems for production of brilliant red to magenta prints.
The ink-jet method of the process according to the invention is understood as meaning an ink-jet recording process in which the drops of ink are sprayed onto the substrate. The fine droplets of ink can be produced by various processes. They are preferably produced by the generally known thermal-jet (for example bubble-jet), piezo-jet or valve-jet processes. The preferred recording material for the ink-jet printer is paper.
The following advantages remit when the aqueous dyestuff preparations according to the invention are used as a recording liquid for ink-jet recording systems: the physical properties, such as viscosity, surface tension and the like, lie in the suitable ranges; the recording liquid causes no blockages in the fine release openings of ink-jet recording devices; it produces images of high density; during storage, no change in physical properties or deposition of solid constituents occurs in the recording liquid; the recording liquid is suitable for recording on various recording media without limitations in respect of the nature of the recording media; finally, the recording liquid is fixed rapidly and produces images of excellent water resistance, fastness to light, abrasion resistance and resolution.

150 parts (0.2 mol) of monoazo dyestuff 2 were dissolved in 2.3 l of water at pH 9, with LiOH, and 60.degree. C. 27.7 parts (0.11 mol) of 1,5-diisocyanato-naphthalene were added in 10 portions in the course of 30 minutes and the temperature was kept at 60.degree. C. and the pH at 8 to 8.5 with LiOH. The mixture was subsequently stirred under these conditions for 2 hours and at 80.degree. C. for a further 30 minutes. After clarification, about 200 g were precipitated with 8% of the volume of sodium chloride and dried at 60.degree. C. in vacuo.
220 g of the dyestuff, as the Na.sub.6 salt, which, in the form of the free acid, corresponds to the formula: ##STR66## were obtained.
.lambda..sub.max (pH 9, water): 520, 547 nm
It dyes paper in brilliant magenta shades.
Further disazo dyestuffs of the formula (I) wherein X denotes a radical of the formula (VI) ##STR67## were prepared by a method analogous to that described in Example 46, the following diisocyanates of the formula (VII)

Example 90
200 g of the salt-containing dyestuff of Example 3 were dissolved in 3 l of water at 40.degree. C. and a pH of 8. The solution was concentrated to 1.5 l in a customary pressure permeation unit (with, for example, membrane G 20 from Sesal), and ultrafiltration was carried out until the Cl.sup..crclbar. content was <0.05%. The solution was then concentrated to about 1 l, so that the dyestuff content was 10.5%, based on the Na.sub.6 salt.
This solution is stable for a relatively long time and was employed directly for dyeing paper or cotton and for the preparation of printing inks for ink-jet printing.
Stable, concentrated solutions were also obtained in a corresponding manner from the other dyestuffs described in the examples.
Use instructions A
0.5 part of the dyestuff powder from Example 3 are dissolved in 100 parts of hot water and the solution is cooled to room temperature. The solution is added to 100 parts of chemically bleached sulphite cellulose, which has been beaten in a beater with 2,000 parts of water. After thorough mixing for 15 minutes, sizing is carried out in the customary manner with rosin size and aluminium sulphate. Paper produced from this material shows a bluish red colour shade and has good fastness to wastewater, good wet fastness and good fastness to light.
Use instructions B
50 parts of bleached softwood sulphite pulp and 50 parts of bleached beech pulp (degree of freeness 30.degree. SR (.degree.SR=degrees Schopper Riegler) and 0.5 part of the dyestuff from Example 3 are mixed in water (pH 4, water hardness 10.degree. dH �German Hardness!. Sheet formation is carried out after 16 minutes. The paper is dyed an intensively bluish red shade. In contrast, dyeing at pH 7 shows no deviation in strength or shade. The degree of exhaustion reaches 100% and the wastewater is colourless.
Use instructions C 100 g of dyestuff solution from Example 46 were stirred with 25 g of 2-pyrrolidone and 225 g of water and the mixture was clarified over a 0.8.mu. filter. The ink cartridges of a commercially available ink-jet printer, for example HP Desk Jet 560, Canon BJC 600 and BJC 4000, were filled with this ink and brilliant magenta prints which were fast to light and bleeding were produced on paper with the corresponding printers.
Instead of pyrrolidone, the otherwise customary organic solvents, such as di- or triethylene glycol, pentanediol, 1,2-propylene glycol, urea and the like, were also used.
When the dyestuff of the formula of Example 4 was used, brilliant magenta prints which were fast to light and water and have an absorption maximum lower by 7 nm were likewise obtained.
