Process conditions for such reactions are generally known and essentially conform to the process conditions specified hereinafter for the reactions between starting compounds (5) and (6) or (8) and (9).

To neutralize the hydrogen halide freed in the course of condensation reactions, use is generally made of alkali and alkaline earth metal carbonates, alkali and alkaline earth metal hydrogencarbonates or alkali or alkaline earth metal hydroxides or else alkali metal acetates, the alkali and alkaline earth metals preferably being sodium, potassium and calcium; acid-binding agents are also tertiary amines, for example pyridine or triethylamine or quinoline.

The reaction according to the invention between aminoazo compounds of the general formula (5) and an aminodihalotriazine compound of the general formula (6) generally takes place, if Y is chlorine, at a pH between 4 and 7, preferably between 5 and 6, and at a temperature between 0.degree. and 50.degree. C., preferably between 10.degree. and 40.degree. C., particularly preferably between 10.degree. and 30.degree. C., and if Y is fluorine, at a pH between 4 and 7, preferably between 5 and 6, and at a temperature between -10.degree. C. and +40.degree. C., preferably between -10.degree. and +30.degree. C., particularly preferably between 0.degree. C. and +10.degree. C.

The reaction according to the invention between dihalotriazinylaminoazo compounds conforming to the general formula (8) and an amino compound of the general formula (9) generally takes place, if Y is chlorine, at a pH between 4 and 7, preferably between 5 and 6, and at a temperature between 0.degree. and 50.degree.

Diamino starting compounds conforming to the general formula H(R)N-D-NH.sub.2 are for example 4,6-disulfo-1,3-diaminobenzene, 2,5-disulfo-1,4-diaminobenzene, 4-sulfo-1,3-diaminobenzene, 2-sulfo-1,4-diaminobenzene, 4-carboxy-1,3-diaminobenzene, 2-carboxy-1,4-diaminobenzene, 2-sulfo-4-(methylamino)-aniline, 4-sulfo-3-(methylamino)-aniline, 2-sulfo-4-(ethylamino)-aniline, 4-sulfo-3-(ethylamino)-aniline, 4-N-(.beta.-sulfoethyl)-aminoaniline and 4,8-disulfo-1,6-diaminonaphthalene.

The azo compounds of the general formula (1) prepared according to the invention can be precipitated and isolated from the synthesis solutions by generally known methods, for example either by precipitating them from the reaction medium by means of electrolytes, for example sodium chloride or potassium chloride, or by evaporating the reaction solution, for example by spray drying, in which case a buffer substance can be added to the reaction solution.

The azo compounds of the general formula (1) according to the invention--hereinafter referred to as compounds (1)--have fiber-reactive dye properties, as already mentioned. They can therefore be used for dyeing (including printing) hydroxy-containing and/or carboxamido-containing materials, in particular fiber materials. It is also possible to use the solutions obtained in the synthesis of compounds (1), with or without addition of a buffer substance and with or without concentrating, directly in dyeing as liquid formulations.

The present invention therefore also provides the use of compounds (1) for dyeing (including printing) hydroxy- and or carboxamido-containing materials, or rather processes for their application to these substrates. Preferably, the materials are employed for application in the form of fiber materials, in particular in the form of textile fibers, such as yarns, wound packages and fabrics. This application can be carried out analogously to known processes.

Hydroxy-containing materials are those of natural or synthetic origin, for example cellulose fiber materials or regenerated products thereof, and polyvinyl alcohols. Cellulose fiber materials are preferably cotton but other vegetable fibers as well, such as linen, hemp, jute and ramie fibers; regenerated cellulose fibers are for example staple and filament viscose.

Carboxamido-containing materials are for example synthetic and natural polyamides and polyurethanes, in particular in the form of fibers, for example wool and other animal hair, silk, leather, nylon-6,6, nylon-6, nylon-11 and nylon-4.

The compounds can be applied to and fixed on the substrates mentioned in accordance with the use according to the invention, in particular the fiber materials mentioned, by the application techniques known for water-soluble dyes, in particular fiber-reactive dyes, for example by applying a compound (1) in dissolved form to the substrate or incorporating it therein and fixing it thereon or therein with or without heating and/or with or without the action of an alkaline agent. Such dyeing and fixing methods are numerously described in the trade and patent literature, for example in European Patent Application Publication No. 0,181,585A.

Using compounds (1) it is possible not only on carboxamido-containing materials, in particular on wool, but also on hydroxyl-containing material, in particular cellulose fiber material, to produce yellowish to bluish red dyeings and prints of high color yield and good color buildup, in which the brilliant hue is retained even in deep shades. The dyeings and prints have good fastness properties, such as good light and wet fastness properties and good pleating fastness, hot press fastness and crock fastness.

Of the dyeings and prints on carboxamido-containing material, in particular on wool, the light, wash and wet light fastness properties can be singled out, even if an otherwise customary ammoniacal after treatment of the dyed material is dispensed with. They are highly compatible with other fiber-reactive wool dyes, which permits level dyeing of the fiber. Similarly, it is possible to obtain level dyeings on material made of wool fibers of different proveniences with compounds (1), in which case a customary leveling assistant, for example N-methyltaurine, may be added to improve the leveling properties.

Preferably, compounds (1) are used for dyeing cellulose fiber materials. Of the good fastness properties obtainable thereon, in particular the good wash fastness properties at 60.degree. to 95.degree. C., even in the presence of perborates, the acid fulling, cross-dyeing and perspiration fastness properties, the high steam resistance and good acid, water and seawater fastness properties should be mentioned.

The Examples below serve to illustrate the invention. Parts and percentages are by weight, unless otherwise stated. Parts by weight bear the same relation to parts by volume as the kilogram to the liter.

The compounds described below in the Examples in terms of formulae are shown in the form of the free acids; in general, they are prepared and isolated in the form of their sodium or potassium salts and are used for dyeing in the form of their salts. It is similarly possible to use in the synthesis the starting compounds and components mentioned in the form of the free acid in the Examples below, in particular the table Examples, as such or in the form of their salts, preferably alkali metal salts, such as sodium or potassium salts.

The absorption maxima (.lambda..sub.max values) given for the visible region were determined at 20.degree. C. on the alkali metal salts thereof in aqueous solution.

EXAMPLE 1

Stirring is continued for some time at a temperature between 0.degree. and 5.degree. C. while the pH is maintained between 3.5 and 4.5 by means of sodium bicarbonate. The conversion of the acylation reaction is 99% or higher. (b) The reaction batch prepared under (a) is stirred into a solution of 134 parts of 1,3-diaminobenzene-4,6-disulfonic acid in about 600 parts of water at a pH between 6 and 7, the reaction mixture is heated to 40.degree. C., and stirring is continued at a temperature between 40.degree. and 45.degree.
