The invention is in the technical field of fiber-reactive azo dyes.

Some monoazo compounds which contain two 4-(.beta.-sulfatoethylsulfonylmethyl)benzoylamino groups are disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,473,498. The dye properties of these compounds seemed, however, in need of improvement.

They are preferably in the form of the salts and are also preferably used in the form of these salts for dyeing (here and hereinafter understood in the general sense, including printing) of hydroxy- and/or carboxylamido-containing materials, in particular fiber materials. They can be readily used for all dyeing and printing processes, such as are described in a large number for fiber-reactive dyes, and produce, with high color yields and a good color buildup, strong dyeings and prints which have good fastness properties, of which in particular the wet fastness properties may be mentioned.

The present invention furthermore relates to a process for the preparation of the new compounds of the general formula (1), which comprises coupling a diazonium salt of an aromatic amino compound which conforms to the general formula (3)

X--SO.sub.2 --T--D--NH.sub.2 ( 3) in which X, T and D have the abovementioned meanings with a compound conforming to the general formula (4) ##STR7## in which M, m, W and Y have the abovementioned meanings.

The conversion of the amino compound of the general formula (3) into its diazonium salt is carried out in the known manner of diazotization of aromatic amino compounds, for example in aqueous medium by means of nitrous acid at a temperature between -5.degree. C. and +10.degree. C. and a pH of less than 2.5. The coupling reaction according to the invention of the diazonium salt with the compound (4) is also carried out analogously to known procedures of the reaction of diazonium compounds with coupling components to give azo compounds, for example in aqueous medium at a pH between 3 and 8, preferably between 4 and 7, and at a temperature between 5.degree. and 35.degree. C., preferably between 10.degree. and 25.degree. C.

The starting compounds of the general formula (3) have been described in the literature in a large number. Compounds of the general formula (3) are, for example: 4-(.beta.-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)-aniline, 4-(.beta.-thiosulfatoethylsulfonyl)-aniline, 4-vinylsulfonyl-aniline, 4-(.beta.-sulfatoethylsulfonyl-methyl)-aniline, 3-(.beta.-sulfatoethylsulfonyl-methyl)-aniline, 3-(.beta.-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)aniline, 2-methoxy-4-(.beta.-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)-aniline, 2-methoxy-5-(.beta.-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)-aniline, 2,5-dimethoxy-4-(.beta.-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)-aniline, 2-methoxy-5-methyl-4-(.beta.-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)-aniline, 2-bromo-4-(.beta.-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)-aniline, 2-sulfo-4-(.beta.-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)-aniline, 2-sulfo-5-(.beta.-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)aniline, 2,5-dichloro-4-(.beta.-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)-aniline, 4-(.beta.-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)-1-aminonaphthalene, 5-(.beta.-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)-2-aminonaphthalene, 6-(.beta.-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)-2-aminonaphthalene, 7-(.beta.-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)-2-aminonaphthalene, 8-(.beta.-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)-2-aminonaphthalene, 5-(.beta.-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)-1-sulfo-2-aminonaphthalene, 6-(.beta.-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)-1-sulfo-2-aminonaphthalene, 6-(.beta.-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)-8-sulfo-2-aminonaphthalene, 8-(.beta.-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)-6-sulfo-2-aminonaphthalene, 3'-(.beta.-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)-4-aminobenzanilide, 4-amino-N.alpha.-.beta.-[4'-(.beta.'-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)phenyl]-ethyl-benzanilide and 4-amino-N'-.beta.-[2'-sulfo-4'-(.beta.' -sulfatoethylsulfonyl)-phenyl]-ethylbenzanilide.

The coupling components of the general formula (4) are also known from the literature. Examples of these compounds are:

1-[3'-(.beta.-chloroethylsulfonyl)]-benzoylamino-3,6-disulfo-8-naphthol, 1-[4'-(.beta.-chloroethylsulfonyl)]-benzoylamino-3,6-disulfo-8-naphthol, 1-[3'-(.beta.-chloroethylsulfonyl)]-benzoylamino-4,6-disulfo-8-naphthol, 1-[3'-(.beta.-chloroethylsulfonyl)]-benzoylamino-4,6-disulfo-8-naphthol, 2-[3'- or 4'-(.beta.-chloroethylsulfonyl)]-benzoylamino-6-sulfo-8-naphthol, 3-[3'- or 4'-(.beta.-chloroethylsulfonyl)]-benzoylamino-6-sulfo-8-naphthol, 3-[3'- or 4'-(.beta.-chloroethylsulfonyl)]-benzoylamino-4,6-disulfo-8-naphthol, 2-[3'- or 4'-(.beta.-chloroethylsulfonyl-methyl)]-benzoylamino-6-sulfo-8-naphthol, 3-[3'- or 4'-(.beta.-chloroethylsulfonylmethyl)]-benzoylamino-6-sulfo-8-naphthol, 3-[3'- or 4'-(.beta.-chloroethylsulfonyl-methyl)]-benzoylamino-4,6-disulfo-8-naphthol, 2-[N-methyl-N-(.beta.-chloroethylsulfonyl)]-amino-6-sulfo-8-naphthol, 3-[N-methyl-N-(.beta.-chloroethylsulfonyl)]-amino-6-sulfo-8-naphthol, 2-[N-ethyl-N-(.beta.chloroethylsulfonyl)]-amino-6-sulfo-8-naphthol, 2-[N-methyl-N-(.beta.-chloroethylsulfonyl)]-amino-3,6-disulfo-8 -naphthol and 3-[N-methyl-N-(.beta.-chloroethylsulfonyl)]-amino-4,6-disulfo-8-naphthol.

The separation and isolation of the compounds of the general formula (1) prepared according to the invention from the synthesis solutions can take place by generally known methods, for example either by precipitation from the reaction medium by means of electrolytes, for example sodium chloride or potassium chloride, or by evaporation of the reaction solution, for example spray-drying, it being possible to add a buffer substance to the reaction solution.

The compounds according to the invention of the general formula (1)--hereinafter designated as compounds (1)--have fiber-reactive properties and valuable dye properties. They can therefore be used for the dyeing (including printing) of natural, regenerated or synthetic hydroxy-containing and/or carboxamido-containing materials, for example in the form of sheet-like materials, such as paper and leather or of polyamide or polyurethane, but in particular of those materials which are in fiber form, such as cellulose fiber materials, silk, wool and synthetic polyamide and polyurethane fibers. The solutions which are formed in the synthesis of the compounds (1) can also be used directly, if appropriate after the addition of a buffer substance, if appropriate even after concentration, as liquid preparation for dyeing.

According to the use according to the invention, the compounds (1) can be applied to and fixed on the substrates mentioned, in particular the fiber materials mentioned, by the application procedures known for watersoluble, in particular fiber-reactive dyes, for example by applying the compound (1) in dissolved form to the substrate or incorporating it therein and fixing it on or in this substrate, if appropriate by the action of heat and/or if appropriate by the action of an alkaline agent. These dyeing and fixation procedures have been described in the literature in a large number, such as, for example, in German Offenlegungsschrift No. 3,025,572.

The present invention accordingly also relates to the use of the compounds (1) for the dyeing (including printing) of hydroxy- and/or carboxamido-containing materials and processes for their use on these substrates. Preferably, the materials are used in the form of fiber materials, in particular in the form of textile fibers, such as yarn, wound packages and fabrics. This can be done analogously to known procedures of the application and fixation of fiber-reactive dyes.

The monoazo compounds according to the invention (1) are distinguished by good water solubility and good color buildup. Their degree of fixation is very high, which is the reason that the unfixed portion is very small as the result of which only a small amount of the compound (1) used goes into the waste water together with the rinsing or wash water, when the dyeings and prints are being finished. Unfixed portions can easily be washed off. Furthermore their good stability in printing pastes, padding liquors and dyebaths is worth mentioning. Their dyeings and prints, in particular on cellulose fiber materials, have good fastness to use and processing, such as, for example, good lightfastness, washfastness, chlorinated water fastness, exhaust gas fastness, hot-press fastness, pleating fastness, decatizing fastness, drycleaning fastness, crock fastness, acid fastness, alkali fastness, and crossdyeing fastness, good alkaline and acid perspiration fastness and high stability to acid storage. The prints obtained have crisp contours and a clear white ground; prints and dyeings do not form spots on adjacent material.

The Examples below are intended to illustrate the invention. Parts and percentages are by weight, unless stated otherwise. Parts by weight relate to parts by volume as the kilogram relates to the liter.

The compounds described in these examples by way of their formulae are given in the form of the free acids; in general, they are prepared and isolated in the form of their sodium salts or potassium salts and are used for dyeing in the form of their salts. Likewise, the starting compounds and components mentioned in the Examples below, in particular the Table Examples, in the form of the free acid can be used as such or in the form of their salts, preferably the alkali metal salts, such as sodium salts or potassium salts, in the synthesis. The absorption maxima (.lambda..sub.max values) indicated for the visible region were determined using the aqueous solution of the alkali metal salts. In the Table Examples, the .lambda..sub.max values are written in brackets next to the hue; the wavelength number refers to nm.

EXAMPLE 1

31.9 parts of 1-amino-4,6-disulfo-8-naphthol are reacted in aqueous solution at a pH of 4 to 5 and a temperature of 15.degree. to 20.degree. C. with 35 parts of 3-(.beta.-chloroethylsulfonyl)benzoyl chloride. The solution of the coupling component thus obtained is stirred into the hydrochloric acid suspension of the diazonium salt of 28.1 parts of 4-(.beta.-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)-aniline in 100 parts of water which has been prepared in a conventional manner; the coupling reaction is carried out at a pH of 5 to 6. The resulting azo compound is salted out with sodium chloride in an amount of 20%, relative to the volume of the solution (to complete the precipitation, stirring of the batch at a pH of 4 is continued for some time), the precipitate is filtered off, washed with a 20% strength aqueous sodium chloride solution and dried under reduced pressure.

This gives a dark red, electrolyte-containing powder of the sodium salt according to the invention of the compound of the formula ##STR8## which has very good fiber-reactive dye properties. It produces, by the dyeing and printing processes customary in industry for fiber-reactive dyes, on the materials mentioned in the description, in particular on cellulose fiber materials, strong brilliant red dyeings and prints which have good fastness properties, of which, in particular, the wash and perspiration fastness properties, the good lightfastness properties, when dry or moistened with drinking water or a perspiration solution, and the good stability to acid storage (no "acid fading", i.e. dyeing and prints are not attacked upon storage in an acid-moist state, such as, for example, in an atmosphere containing acid vapors) may be mentioned in particular. The compound according to the invention has a high degree of fixation and good color buildup; the prints obtained with it have a clear white ground.

EXAMPLE 2

A solution of 31.5 parts of 4-N-methyl-N-.beta.-chloroethylsulfonyl-benzoyl chloride in 50 parts of acetone is added to 23.9 parts of 3-amino-6-sulfo-8-naphthol in aqueous solution at a pH of 4 to 5 at a temperature of about 20.degree. C. over a period of one hour. Stirring is continued for some time, if appropriate with the addition of a further small amount of the acid chloride, until the reaction has almost gone to completion. The acid aqueous suspension of the diazonium salt of 30.3 parts of 6-(.beta.-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)-1-sulfo-2-aminonaphthalene which has been prepared in a conventional manner is added to the solution of the coupling component thus obtained. The coupling reaction is carried out at a pH of 4 to 5 and a temperature of 15.degree. to 25.degree. C.

The resulting azo compound according to the invention is precipitated at a pH of 4 by the addition of sodium chloride and is isolated. This gives a red, sodium chloride-containing powder of the sodium salt of the compound of the formula ##STR9## which has very good fiber-reactive dye properties and, analogously to the statements of Example 1, produces strong orange dyeings and prints which have good fastness properties, such as good wash fastness properties, perspiration fastness properties, dry light and wet light fastness properties and good stability to acid storage. Furthermore, the high degree of fixation and the good color buildup may be mentioned; the prints obtainable by means of the compound according to the invention have a clear white ground.

EXAMPLE 3

A solution of 1-N-[4'-(.beta.-chloroethylsulfonylmethyl)benzoyl]-amino-3,6-disulfo-8-naphthol as coupling component is prepared by the reaction of 31.9 parts of 1-amino-3,6-disulfo-8-naphthol in neutral solution with 30 parts of 4-(.beta.-chloroethylsulfonylmethyl)-benzoyl chloride analogously to the procedure of Example 1, to which a hydrochloric acid suspension of the diazonium salt of 40 parts of 4-amino-3'-(.beta.-chloroethylsulfonyl)-benzanilide in about 500 parts of water, which is prepared in a conventional manner, is added. The coupling reaction is carried out at a pH between 4 and 5.

The synthesized azo compound according to the invention is isolated in the conventional manner by salting out with sodium chloride or potassium chloride or by spray drying. This gives a dark red, electrolyte-containing powder of the alkali metal salt of the compound of the formula ##STR10## Which has very good fiber-reactive dye properties and produces, by the dyeing and printing processes customary in industry, strong, bluish red dyeings and prints on the materials mentioned in the description, in particular on cellulose fiber materials. The dyeings and prints are distinguished by good fastness properties, of which the good wash fastness properties, perspiration fastness properties, dry light and wet light fastness properties and the good stability to acid storage may be mentioned in particular. The color buildup and the degree of fixation of the compounds according to the invention is very high; the prints have a clear white ground.

EXAMPLE 4

Analogously to the procedure of Example 1, 2,5-dimethoxy-4-(.beta.-sulfatoethylsulfonyl)-aniline is reacted as diazo component with 1-N-[4'-(.beta.-chloroethylsulfonyl)-benzoyl]-amino-3,6-disulfo-8-naphthol as coupling component in equivalent amounts. The azo compound according to the invention of the formula ##STR11## is isolated in the form of its alkali metal salt and exhibits very good fiber-reactive dye properties. It gives strong, red-violet dyeings and prints which have good fastness properties, such as, for example, good wash fastness, perspiration fastness and light fastness properties and good stability to acid storage. The compound according to the invention furthermore is distinguished by a high degree of fixation and very good color buildup.

EXAMPLE 5

A solution of 89.3 parts of the azo compound according to the invention of Example 4 in 1000 parts of water is adjusted to a pH of 11 to 12 at a temperature of about 20.degree. C. by means of concentrated aqueous sodium hydroxide solution. Stirring of the batch at 20.degree. C. is continued for 5 minutes, and the mixture is then brought to a pH of 5 by means of a mixture of concentrated aqueous hydrochloric acid and acetic acid. The vinylsulfonyl azo compound thus obtained precipitates after a short time; the precipitation is completed by the addition of sodium chloride or potassium chloride. The precipitate is isolated and dried under reduced pressure.

This gives a blue-red powder of the alkali metal salt of the azo compound of the formula ##STR12## which has only a low electrolyte content. This compound according to the invention also exhibits very good fiber-reactive dye properties and produces, in particular on cellulose fiber materials, bluish red dyeings which have the same good fastness properties as those described for the dyeings of the compound according to the invention of Example 4.

They can be prepared according to the invention, for example according to one of the Working Examples above, by means of the components shown in the particular Table Example. They have fiber-reactive dye properties and produce, in particular on cellulose fiber materials, by the application and fixation methods customary for fiber-reactive dyes, strong dyeings and prints which have good fastness properties in the hues mentioned in the particular Table Example for the dyeings on cotton.
