The present invention furthermore relates to processes for the preparation of the azo compounds of the general formula (1) according to the invention, for example by coupling reaction of the diazonium compound of an amino compound of the general formula (5) ##STR5## in which Y' has one of the meanings of Y or is the .beta.-hydroxyethyl group and R, M and n have the abovementioned meanings, with a coupling component of the general formula H-K, where K has the abovementioned meaning; if K, as stated above, is a bivalent coupling component, a disazo compound can be prepared, if this is required, by reaction of this bivalent coupling component with twice the equimolar amount of the diazo component. If a compound (5) where Y' is a .beta.-hydroxyethyl group is used, this .beta.-hydroxyethyl group in the azo compound formed is converted into a group Y of the azo compound (1) according to the invention, as also stated below.
The diazotization and coupling reactions are carried out in the customary well-known manner, for ex. the diazotization of the amine (5) as a rule at a temperature between -5.degree. C. and +15.degree. C. and a pH below 2 by means of a strong acid and an alkali metal nitrite, preferably in an aqueous medium, and the coupling reaction is as a rule carried out at a pH between 1.5 and 4.5 in the case of a coupling component containing amino groups and at a pH between 3 and 7.5 in the case of a coupling component containing hydroxyl groups, and at a temperature between 0.degree. C. and 30 C., preferably in an aqueous medium.
If the coupling component is a bivalent compound which can be coupled in two positions, for example if it contains an amino group which is capable of coupling and at the same time a hydroxy group which is capable of coupling, to prepare a disazo compound the coupling can first be carried out with the first mol of the diazonium compound of the amine in the acid pH range to give the monoazo compound, and the second coupling reaction can then be carried out with the second mol of the diazonium compound of the amine in the weakly acid to weakly alkaline range. This procedure applies, for example, to the compounds corresponding to the general formula (4p) and (4q), that is to say by first coupling the aminonaphtholsulfonic acid with the first mol of the diazonium compound of the amine of the general formula (5) or another aromatic amine corresponding to the general formula D*--NH.sub.2, where D* has the abovementioned different meaning to D, in the acid medium and then by coupling the monoazo compound formed with the second mol of a diazonium compound of an amine D*--NH.sub.2 , where D* has the abovementioned meaning, in the weakly acid, neutral or weakly alkaline range, D* necessarily having one of the meanings given for D if the first coupling reaction has not been carried out with a diazonium compound of an amine (5), thus, in particular, initially at a pH of about 1 to 2.5 and then at a pH between 4 and 6.5, it being possible, if the diazonium compound of the amino compound (5) is identical in both coupling reactions, for the first and second coupling reaction to be carried out in one and the same batch, first in the acid range stated and then in the weakly acid to weakly alkaline range. To prepare a disazo compound corresponding to the general formula (4r) the reaction of the coupling component resorcinol with the diazonium compound or compounds is advantageously first carried out at a pH between 0.8 and 2 and then at a pH between 6 and 7.5.
Disazo compounds corresponding to the general formula (1), the radical K of which corresponds to the radical of an azo compound which is composed of a diazo component which is capable of coupling such as, for example, a radical corresponding to the general formula (4s) or (4t), can be prepared according to the invention by first coupling the diazonium compound of an amine (5) with the coupling component which contains an amino group and can thus be diazotized, such as, for example, in the formulae (4s) and (4t) the aniline and sulfo-aminonaphthalene components substituted by the substituents R.sup.6 and R.sup.7, diazotizing the amino group in the amino-azo compound thus formed and coupling the diazotization product with a coupling component, such as, for example, the coupling component H--K*, to give the disazo compound.
All these possible reactions with the synthesis of disazo compounds are analogous to the methods which are known in the literature or are familiar to the expert for the synthesis of disazo compounds.

The compounds corresponding to the general formula (5) which can be employed according to the invention for the synthesis of the azo compounds (1) according to the invention have not previously been disclosed. The invention thus also relates to these compounds, processes for their preparation and their use for the synthesis of dyestuffs, such as, in particular, to give the azo compounds (1) according to the invention. They can be prepared by procedures analogous to known procedures for the reaction of acid chlorides with amines, by first reacting a compound of the general formula (6) ##STR6## in which R has the abovementioned meaning, with an amino compound of the general formula ##STR7## in which M and n have the abovementioned meanings. The reaction is carried out in the solvents or diluents which are customary and suitable for this reaction, in the presence of an acid-binding agent, as a rule at a temperature between 0.degree. and 80.degree. C. Examples of suitable solvents are water or an organic solvent or diluent or a mixture of water and a water-miscible organic solvent. Examples of organic solvents or diluents are water, alkanols having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, preferably 1 to 4 carbon atoms, such as, for example, methanol, dioxane, toluene, the xylenes, chlorobenzene, o-dichlorobenzene, m-dichlorobenzene, dimethylformamide and N-methyl-pyrrolidone.
Examples of acid-binding agents are potassium carbonate, magnesium oxide, sodium carbonate, sodium hydroxide, triethylamine and triethanolamine. In an aqueous medium, a pH between 6 and 12, preferably between 8 and 10, is maintained.
Examples of acid chlorides of the general formula (6) are 4-nitro-phenoxy-acetyl chloride, 2,4-dinitro-phenoxy-acetyl chloride, 2-chloro-4-nitro-phenoxy-acetyl chloride, 2-bromo-4-nitro-phenoxy-acetyl chloride, 2-methyl-4-nitro-phenoxy-acetyl chloride and 2-methoxy-4-nitro-phenoxy-acetyl chloride.
Amino compounds of the general formula (7) are, for example, 4-(.beta.-hydroxyethylsufonyl)-1-(.beta.-aminoethyl)benzene, 5-(.beta.-hydroxyethylsulfonyl)-2-(.beta.-aminoethyl)benzenesulfonic acid.
The carboxamide compounds according to the invention, corresponding to the general formula (8) ##STR8## in which R, M and n have the abovementioned meanings, which are obtainable according to the invention in this manner and are likewise novel are then reduced, after they have been isolated from the reaction batch, for example, by crystallization or by distilling off the solvent or by acidification and filtration, to the amino compound corresponding to the general formula (5) by procedures analogous to known procedures, that is to say by catalytic hydrogenation with hydrogen over palladium, platinum or Raney nickel at a temperature between 50.degree. and 110.degree. C. and increased pressure or by Be champ reduction with iron in an acid medium, for example with iron in ethanol/glacial acetic acid. The reduction can be carried out in a solvent which is suitable for this, such as water, methanol or ethanol or a mixture thereof.
Both the compounds corresponding to the general formula (1) and those of the general formula (5) in which Y or Y' is the .beta.-hydroxyethyl group can be converted into compounds in which Y or Y' has a meaning other than the .beta.-hydroxyethyl group by a customary and known procedure, thus, for example, into ester derivatives thereof, such as, for example, of polybasic inorganic acids or of aliphatic and aromatic carboxylic or sulfonic acids, thus, for example, in the compounds in which Y or Y' represents the .beta.-chloroethyl, .beta.-sulfatoethyl, .beta.-phosphatoethyl, .beta.-thiosulfatoethyl, .beta.-acetoxyethyl or .beta.-toluylsulfonyloxyethyl group. Examples of esterifying and acylating agents which are suitable for this are the corresponding inorganic or organic acids or anhydrides or halides or amides thereof, such as, for example, sulfuric acid, sulfuric acid containing sulfur trioxide, chlorosulfonic acid, amidosulfonic acid, phosphoric acid, phosphorus oxychloride, mixtures of phosphoric acid and phosphorus pentoxide, acetic anhydride, toluenesulfonyl chloride and thionyl chloride.
Those compounds in which Y or Y' represents the vinyl group can be prepared from analogous ester derivatives thereof by means of an alkali, thus in an aqueous medium at a pH of 10 to 12 and a temperature between 40 and 50.degree. C. in the course of 10 to 20 minutes. The synthesis of, for example, .beta.-(dialkylamino)-ethylsulfonyl and .beta.-thiosulfatoethylsulfonyl derivatives of the compounds (1) and (5) is carried out by reaction of vinylsulfonyl compounds thereof with the corresponding dialkylamine or with an alkali metal salt of thiosulfuric acid, such as sodium thiosulfate. All these procedures for conversion of a group --SO.sub.2 --Y or--SO.sub.2 --Y' into another group are familiar to the expert in this fiber-reactive field and have been described in numerous instances in the literature.
The compounds of the general formula (1) according to the invention-called compounds (1) below-have fiberreactive properties and possess very useful dyestuff properties. They can therefore be used for dyeing (including printing) materials containing hydroxy groups and/or carboxamide groups. For this, the solutions obtained in the synthesis of the compounds (1) can be put to use in dyeing directly as the liquid preparation, if appropriate after addition of a buffer substance and if appropriate also after concentration.
The compounds (1) can be precipitated and isolated from the aqueous synthesis solutions by the generally known methods for water-soluble compounds, thus, for example, by precipitation from the reaction medium by means of an electrolyte, such as, for example, sodium chloride or potassium chloride, or by evaporation of the reaction solution itself, for example by spray drying. If the latter type of isolation is chosen, it is often advisable for any amounts of sulfate present in these solutions to be removed by precipitation as calcium sulfate and separation by filtration before the evaporation.
The present invention thus also relates to the use of the compounds (1) for dyeing (including printing) materials containing hydroxy and/or carboxamide groups and to processes for their use on these substrates. The materials are preferably used in the form of fiber materials, in particular in the form of textile fibers, such as yarns, wound packages and woven fabrics. Procedures analogous to known procedures can be followed here.
Materials containing hydroxy groups are those of natural or synthetic origin, such as, for example, cellulose fiber materials or regenerated products thereof, and polyvinyl alcohols. Cellulose fiber materials are preferably cotton, but also other plant fibers, such as linen, hemp, jute and ramie fibers; examples of the regenerated cellulose fibers are viscose staple and filament viscose.
Examples of materials containing carboxamide groups are synthetic and naturally occurring polyamides and polyurethanes, in particular in the form of fibers, for example wool and other animal hair, silk, leather, polyamide-6,6, polyamide-6, polyamide-11 and polyamide-4.
When used according to the invention, the compounds (1) can be applied to and fixed on the substrates mentioned, in particular on the fiber materials mentioned, by the use techniques known for water-soluble fiber-reactive dyestuffs, thus, for example, by applying the compound (1) in dissolved form to the substrate or incorporating it therein and fixing it on this or in this, if appropriate by the action of heat and/or if appropriate by the action of an alkaline agent. Such dyeing and fixing procedures are described in numerous instances in the literature (see, for example, European Patent Application Publication No. 0,181,585A2).
On cellulose fiber materials in particular, the dyeings according to the invention have good light-fastnesses both in the dry state of the dyeing and in the wet state, for example moistened with a perspiration solution, as well as good wet-fastnesses, such as, for example, good fastnesses to washing at 60.degree. to 95.degree. C., including in the presence of perborates, good fastnesses to acid and alkaline milling, cross-dyeing and perspiration, a high resistance to steam, good fastnesses to alkali, acid, water and sea water, and moreover a good fastness to pleating, fastness to ironing and fastness to rubbing. They likewise have a good resistance to storage in the presence of acid ("acid fading") on storage of moist dyed material which still contains acetic acid.

The following Examples serve to illustrate the invention. The part or parts by weight and the percentage data represent percentages by weight, unless noted otherwise. Parts by weight bear the same relationship to parts by volume as the kilogram to the liter.
The compounds described by the formulae in these Examples are shown in the form of the free acids; they are in general prepared and isolated in the form of their alkali metal salts, such as lithium, sodium or potassium salts, and used for dyeing in the form of their salts. The starting compounds and components mentioned in the form of the free acid in the following Examples, in particular the Tabular Examples, can likewise be employed in the synthesis as such or in the form of their salts, preferably alkali metal salts.
