The diazo components mentioned are known compounds.

Barbituric acid may be mentioned particularly as a coupling component; in addition, the functional derivates thereof can also be used, for example N-methyl-, N,N-dimethyl-, N-ethyl-, N,N-dialkyl-, N-phenyl- or N,N-diphenyl-barbituric acid as well as the thio- or imino-derivaties thereof of the formula ##STR9##

These barbituric acid derivatives are known compounds.

The coupling is appropriately carried out by gradual addition of the diazonium solution to the aqueous solution of the coupling component at a pH value of 4-6.

The pH value is advantageously adjusted by adding a buffer. Examples of possible buffers are the salts, particularly alkali metal salts, of formic acid, phosphoric acid or acetic acid. It is, furthermore, possible to add to the coupling solution wetting agents, dispersing agents or emulsifiers, for example an aralkylsulphonate, such as dodecylbenzenesulphonate, polycondensation products of ethylene oxides, such as the reaction product of ethylene oxide with p-tert.-octylphenol, and also alkyl esters of sulphoricinoleates, for example n-butyl sulphoricinoleate. The coupling dispersion can also with advantage contain protective colloids, for example methylcellulose or minor or major amounts of inert, water-miscible, organic solvents, such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, methanol, ethanol or isopropanol as well as dimethylformamide or N-methylpyrrolidone or pyridine.

By virtue of their insolubility it is possible to isolate the resulting pigments from the reaction mixtures by filtration. In most cases, these pigments have an excellent texture after drying. In individual cases it is found to be advantageous to after-treat the resulting pigments with an organic solvent, preferably one boiling above 100.degree. C. Solvents which prove to be particularly suitable are benzene derivatives substituted by halogen atoms or alkyl or nitro groups, such as xylenes, chlorobenzene, o-dichlorobenzene, or nitrobenzene, and pyridine bases, such as pyridine, picoline or quinoline, and also ketones, such as cyclohexanone, ethers, such as ethylene glycol monomethyl ether or monoethyl ether, and amides, such as dimethylformamide or N-methylpyrrolidone and sulphoxone.

The after-treatment is preferably carried out by heating the pigment in the solvent to 100.degree. - 150.degree. C, a coarsening of grain taking place in many cases, which has a favourable influence on the fastness of the resulting pigments to light and migration.

The coupling can also be carried out with advantage by continuously combining an acid solution of the diazonium salt with an alkaline solution of the coupling component in a mixing jet, an immediate coupling of the components taking place. The resulting dispersion of dyestuff is continuously withdrawn from the mixing jet and the dyestuff is separated by filtration.

Instead of diazonium salts, it is also possible to use the corresponding diazoamino compounds. These are obtained by a known process by coupling an aryldiazonium salt with one mol of a primary amine or, preferably, a secondary amine. The most diverse amines are suitable for this purpose, for example aliphatic amines, such as methylamine, ethylamine, ethanolamine, propylamine, butylamine, hexylamine and particularly dimethylamine, diethylamine, diethanolamine, methylethanolamine dipropylamine or dibutylamine, aminoacetic acid, methylaminoacetic acid, butylaminoacetic acid, aminoethanesulphonic acid, methylaminoethanesulphonic acid, guanylethanesulphonic acid and .beta.-aminoethylsulphuric acid, alicyclic amines, such as cyclohexylamine, N-methylcyclohexylamine and dicyclohexylamine, aromatic amines, such as 4-aminobenzoic acid, sulphanilic acid, 4-sulpho-2-aminobenzoic acid, (4-sulphophenyl)-guanidine, 4-N-methylamino-benzoic acid, 4-ethylamino-benzoic acid, 1-aminonaphthalene-4-sulphonic acid and 1-aminonaphthalene-2,4-disulphonic acid, heterocyclic amines, such as piperidine, morpholine, pyrrolidine and dihydroindole and, finally, also sodium cyanamide or dicyandiamide.

As a rule the resulting diazoamino compounds are sparingly soluble in cold water and can be separated in a crystalline form from the reaction medium, if appropriate after salting out. In many cases the moist press-cakes can be used for further reaction. In individual cases it can prove expedient to dehydrate the diazoamides by vacuum drying prior to the reaction.

The coupling of the diazoamino compound with the coupling component is carried out in an organic solvent, for example chlorobenzene, o-dichlorobenzene, nitrobenzene, pyridine, ethylene glycol, ethylene glycol monoethyl ether or monomethyl ether, dimethylformamide, formic acid or acetic acid. When using solvents which are miscible with water, it is not necessary to use the diazoamino compound in an anhydrous form. For example, the water-moist filter cakes can be used.

The coupling is suitably carried out in a hot acid medium, preferably at temperatures between 80.degree. and 180.degree. C, and generally proceeds very rapidly and completely. If neutral solvents are used, it is advantageous to add an acid, for example hydrogen chloride, sulphuric acid, formic acid or acetic acid. By virtue of their insolubility, it is possible to isolate the resulting pigments from the reaction mixture by filtration. An after-treatment with organic solvents, such as is required in the case of pigments obtained by the aqueous coupling route, is, therefore, unnecessary in most cases.

Finally, the coupling can also be accomplished by suspending the amine to be diazotised, together with the coupling component, in an organic solvent and treating the mixture with a diazotising agent, particularly an ester of nitrous acid, such as methyl, ethyl, butyl, amyl or octyl nitrite.

The new dyestuffs represent valuable pigments which can be used in a finely divided form for pigmenting high molecular organic material, for example cellulose ethers and cellulose esters, such as ethylcellulose, nitrocellulose, cellulose acetate and cellulose butyrate, natural resins or synthetic resins, such as polymerisation resins or condensation resins, for example aminoplasts, especially urea-formaldehyde and melamine-formaldehyde resins, alkyd resins, phenoplasts, polycarbonates, polyolefins, such as polystyrene, polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene and polypropylene, polyacrylonitrile, polyacrylic acid esters, polyamides, polyurethanes or polyesters, rubber, casein, silicone and silicone resins, singly or as mixtures.

The present invention, further provides a composition comprising a high molecular weight organic material and a monoazo pigment as defined herein. The composition comprises preferably 0,1-25% and more especially 0.1-5% of pigment by weight on total composition.

In this it is immaterial whether the high molecular compounds mentioned are present as plastic compositions or as melts or in the form of spinning solutions, lacquers or paints. It is found advantageous, depending on the application, to use the new pigments as toners or in the form of preparations.

By virtue of their high tinctorial strength and transparency, the new dyestuffs are particularly suitable for use in printing inks such as letterpress printing, gravure printing and offset printing. In addition they have good brilliance, very good fastness to light and migration, a high degree of resistance to alkali and good dispersibility.

In the following examples, unless otherwise specified, the parts denote parts by weight and the percentages denote percentages by weight.

EXAMPLE 1

2.42 parts of 1-amino-2-methoxy-5-benzoic acid phenylamide are diazotised in 50 parts by volume of ice water by means of 2.5 parts by volume of concentrated hydrochloric acid and 2.5 parts by volume of 4 N sodium nitrite solution. 1.28 parts of barbituric acid are separately dissolved in 100 parts by volume of dimethylformamide and 3 parts of anhydrous sodium acetate are added. The diazo solution is poured into this coupling suspension in a thin stream. The coupling takes place immediately. The mixture is stirred for a further 3 hours at room temperature and the pigment formed is then filtered off, washed with water and methyl alcohol and dried. 3.6 parts of a soft, loose, yellow powder which dyes polyvinyl chloride in a strong red-yellow shade which is fast to migration are obtained.

The pale yellow solution is stirred with 8 parts by volume of concentrated hydrochloric acid, the resulting suspension (hydrochloride) is cooled to 5.degree. C and 8 parts by volume of 4 N sodium nitrite solution are added dropwise at 5.degree. C over the course of 15 minutes, and the resulting diazo solution is filtered to give a clear product.

The diazo solution is added dropwise to this colourless solution at 5.degree. C over the course of 30 minutes. In the course thereof a yellow precipitate is formed. The pH value of the resulting suspension is adjusted to 5 by adding 45 parts by volume of 30% strength aqueous sodium hydroxide solution and the suspension is stirred for 4 hours at a temperature which rises to 20.degree. C, and is heated to 75.degree. C in the course of one hour and filtered hot. The residue is washed free from salt and is dried in vacuo at 60.degree.

1.00 g of the pigment prepared in accordance with Example 1 is finely ground on an Engelsmann grinding machine with 4.0 g of a printer's varnish composed of 29.4% of linseed oil-stand oil (300 poises), 67.2% of linseed oil-stand oil (20 poises), 2.1% of cobalt octoate (8% Co) and 1.3% of lead octoate (24% Pb), and the mixture is then printed onto art printing paper at 1 g/m.sup.2 with the aid of a block, in the letterpress process. A strong, pure yellow shade of good transparency and good gloss is obtained. In the three-colour or four-colour printing process, very brilliant green shades can be produced by overprinting onto blue.

The pigment is also suitable for other printing processes, such as gravure printing, offset printing and flexographic printing, and here too gives very good results.
