Especially preferred compounds of the general formula (1) are those in which K represents the 1-hydroxynaphth-2-yl radical which is substituted by 1, 2 or 3 sulfo groups, or denotes a radical of the general formula (4c) in which B.sup.1 is a carboxy or methyl group and Q stands for a phenyl radical which is substituted by 1 or 2 substituents selected from the series comprising 2 methyl groups , 2 ethoxy groups, 2 methoxy groups, 2 sulfo groups, 1 carboxy group or 1 chlorine atom, one of the substituents necessarily being a carboxy or sulfo group, or the phenyl radical being substituted by a vinylsulfonyl or .beta.-sulfatoethylsulfonyl group and optionally additionally by 1 or 2 substituents selected from the series comprising 1 methyl, 2 methoxy, 1 chlorine and 1 sulfo.
The present invention furthermore relates to a process for the preparation of the azo compounds of the general formula (1) according to the invention, for example by coupling a diazonium compound corresponding to the general formula (4) ##STR5## in which An.sup.(-) is a colorless anion (or the equivalent of this anion in the case of a polyvalent anion) which is customary for diazonium compounds, such as the chloride, sulfate or bisulfate anion, and 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; as long as K, as stated above, is a bivalent coupling component, a disazo compound can be prepared, if desired, by reacting this bivalent coupling component with twice the equimolar amount of the diazo component. Where a compound (4) where Y' is a .beta.-hydroxyethyl group is used, this .beta.-hydroxyethyl group is converted, in the azo compound formed, into a Y group of the azo compound (1) according to the invention, as stated below.
The diazonium compound of the general formula (4) can be prepared analogously to the procedures which are customary in diazotization reactions by reacting an amino compound of the general formula (5) ##STR6## in which Y', R, M and n have the abovementioned meanings, with twice the equimolar amount of a diazotizing agent, such as, for example, nitrous acid or sodium nitrite in the presence of a strong mineral acid, such as hydrochloric acid. In this diazotization reaction of the amino compound of the general formula (5), diazotization of the terminal amino group is accompanied by diazotization of the primary amino group of the ortho-phenylenediamine moiety, resulting in immediate benzotriazole ring closure.
The process according to the invention for the preparation of azo compounds (1) by diazotization and coupling can therefore also be carried out in an advantageous fashion by reacting an amino compound of the general formula (5) with twice the equimolar amount of the diazotizing agent to give the diazonium compound of the amine of the general formula (4), and then coupling the latter with a coupling component of the general formula H-K.
The diazotization and coupling reactions take place in a customary and long-known manner, thus the diazotization generally at a temperature between -5.degree. C. and +15.degree. C. and at a pH of less than 2 by means of a strong acid and alkali metal nitrite in a preferably aqueous medium, and the coupling reaction generally at a pH between 1.5 and 4.5 in the case of an amino group-containing coupling component and at a pH between 3 and 7.5 in the case of a hydroxy group-containing coupling component, and at a temperature between 0.degree. and 30.degree. C. in a preferably aqueous medium.
If the coupling component is a dicouplable, bivalent compound, it contains, for example, a couplable amino group and simultaneously a couplable hydroxy group; for the preparation of a disazo compound, the coupling can thus initially take place by means of the first mole of the diazonium compound of the amine in the acidic pH region to give the monoazo compound, and the second coupling reaction subsequently by means of the second mole of the diazonium compound of the amine in the slightly acidic to slightly alkaline region. This procedure applies, for example, to the compounds corresponding to the general formulae (4p) and (4q), thus by coupling the aminonaphtholsulfonic acid initially with the first mole of the diazonium compound of the amine of the general formula (4) or another aromatic amine corresponding to the general formula D*--NH.sub.2 where D* has an abovementioned meaning other than D, in an acidic medium, and then by coupling the monoazo compound formed with the second mole of a diazonium compound with an amine D*--NH.sub.2 where D* has the abovementioned meaning, in the slightly acidic, neutral or slightly alkaline region, D* necessarily having one of the abovementioned meanings for D, so long as the first coupling reaction has not been carried out using a diazonium compound of an amine (4), thus, in particular, initially at a pH of about 1 to 2.5 and subsequently at a pH between 4 and 6.5, it being possible to carry out the first and second coupling reaction in one and the same batch, initially in the specified acidic region and then in the slightly acidic to slightly alkaline region, so long as the diazonium compound of the amino compound (4) is identical in the two coupling reactions. To prepare a disazo compound corresponding to the general formula (4r), the reaction of the coupling component resorcinol with the diazonium compound(s) is advantageously carried out initially 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) whose coupling component K contains an azo group, and is thus the radical of an azo compound which is constructed from a coupling component and a couplable diazo component, such as, for example, the radical of a coupling component corresponding to the general formula (4s) or (4t), can also be prepared according to the invention by initially coupling the diazonium compound of an amine (4) with the amino group-containing, and thus diazotizable, coupling component, such as, for example, the analine or sulfoaminonaphthalene components which are substituted by the substituents R.sup.6 and R.sup.7 in the formulae (4s) and (4t), and diazotizing the amino group in the amino-azo compound thus formed and coupling the product with a coupling component, such as, for example, the coupling component H-K*, to form the disazo compound.
All these possible reactions for the synthesis of disazo compounds are analogous to synthetic methods for disazo compounds which are known in the literature or known to those skilled in the art.
Coupling components of the general formula (6) or (6a) which can be used for the preparation of the dyes according to the invention and correspond, for example, to the general formulae (4a) to (4n) are, for example: 1,3-diaminobenzene-5-sulfonic acid, phenol, cresol, resorcinol, 2-ethoxyphenol, 4-methylphenol, 3-sulfophenol, salicylic acid, 3-sulfonaphthol, 4-sulfonaphthol, 5-sulfonaphthol, 3,6-disulfo-8-naphthol, 4,6-disulfo-8-naphthol, 1-naphthol-3,8-disulfonic acid, 1-amino-8-naphthol-4-sulfonic acid, 1-amino-8-naphthol-5-sulfonic acid, 1-amino-8-naphthol-2,4-disulfonic acid, 2-amino-5-naphthol-7-sulfonic acid, 2-amino-5-naphthol-1,7-disulfonic acid, 1-amino-5-naphthol-7-sulfonic acid, 2-amino-8-naphthol-6-sulfonic acid, 2-amino-8-naphthol-3,6-disulfonic acid, 2-amino-8-naphthol-4,6-disulfonic acid, 1-amino-8-naphthol-3,6- or -4,6-disulfonic acid, 1-acryloylamino-8-naphthol-3,6- or -4,6-disulfonic acid, 1-propionylamino-8-naphthol-3,6-disulfonic acid, 1-acetylamino-8-naphthol-4-sulfonic acid, 1-acetylamino-8-naphthol-3,6- or -4,6-disulfonic acid, 1-benzoylamino-8-naphthol-3,6- or -4,6-disulfonic acid, 2-naphthol-5,7-disulfonic acid, 2-naphthol-3,6- and -6,8-disulfonic acid, 1,8-dihydroxynaphthalene-3,6-disulfonic acid, 1,8-dihydroxynaphthalene-6-sulfonic acid, 1-naphthol-3,6,8-trisulfonic acid, 2 -acetylamino-5-naphthol-7-sulfonic acid, 2-benzoylamino-8-naphthol-6-sulfonic acid, 2-(p'-tosylamino)-5-naphthol-7-sulfonic acid, 2-acetylamino-8-naphthol-3,6-disulfonic acid, 2-acetylamino-5-naphthol-1,7-disulfonic acid, 2-benzoylamino-8-naphthol-6-sulfonic acid, 2-phenylsulfonylamino-5-naphthol-7-sulfonic acid, 2-(N-methyl-N-acetyl)amino-8-naphthol-6-sulfonic acid, N-ethyl-N-benzylaniline-3-sulfonic acid, N,N-bis(.beta.-hydroxyethyl)-aniline, N,N-bis(-.beta.-sulfatoethyl)-aniline, N,N-bis-(.beta.-hydroxyethyl)-2-methoxy-5-chloroaniline, N-(8-sulfatoethyl)-2,5-dimethoxyaniline, N-(.beta.-sulfatoethyl)-2-chloroaniline, acetoacetyl-2-naphthylamide-5-sulfonic acid, N-acetoacetylaniline-3- or -4-sulfonic acid, N-acetoacetyl-2-methoxy-5-sulfoaniline, N-acetoacetyl-4-methoxy-3-sulfoaniline, N-acetoacetyl-2-methoxy-5-methyl-4-sulfoaniline, N-acetoacetyl-2,5-dimethoxy-4-sulfoaniline, 1-(4'-sulfophenyl)-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone, 1-(4'-sulfophenyl)-3-carboxy-5-pyrazolone, 1-(2'-chloro-5'-sulfophenyl)-3-methyl- or -3-carboxy-5-pyrazolone, 1-(3'-sulfophenyl)-3-carboxy-5-pyrazolone, 1-(2'-methoxy-4'-sulfophenyl)-3-carboxy-5-pyrazolone, 1-(3'-sulfophenyl)-3-methyl-5-aminopyrazole, 1-(4'-sulfophenyl)-3-methyl-5-aminopyrazole, 1-(2'-methoxy-5'-sulfophenyl)-3-methyl-5-aminopyrazole, 1-(2'-methoxy-5'-methyl-4'-sulfophenyl)-3-methyl-5-aminopyrazole, 1-(2'-chloro-5'-sulfophenyl)-3-methyl-5-aminopyrazole, 1-(3'-amino-4'-sulfophenyl)-3-carbethoxy-5-pyrazolone, 1-(2',4', 6'-trimethyl-3'-amino-5'-sulfophenyl)-3-carbethoxy-5-pyrazolone, 1-(3'-amino-6'-methylphenyl)-3-carboxy-5-pyrazolone, 2-N-methylamino-8-naphthol-6-sulfonic acid, 3-carboxy-5-pyrazolone, 1-phenyl-3-carboxy-5-pyrazolone, 1-(4'-nitrophenyl)-3-carboxy-5-pyrazolone, 1-(3'-acetylaminophenyl)-3-carb oxy-5-pyrazolone, 1-(3'-carboxyphenyl)-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone, 2,3-hydroxynaphthoic acid, 8-hydroxyquinoline-5-sulfonic acid, 1,4-dimethyl-2-hydroxy-6-pyridone-5-sulfonic acid, aniline-N-methanesulfonic acid, 2-amino-5-naphthol-7-sulfonic acid, 2-methylamino-8-naphthol-6-sulfonic acid, diphenylamino-2,5-disulfonic acid and diphenylamino-4'-sulfonic acid.

Organic solvents or diluents are, for example, water, alkanols having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, preferably having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, such as, for example, methanol, dioxane, toluene, the xylenes, chlorobenzene, o-dichlorobenzene, m-dichlorobenzene, dimethylformamide and N-methylpyrrolidone; the phenylenediamine of the formula (6) can also be used as solvent, in excess.
Acid-binding agents are, for example, potassium carbonate, magnesium oxide, sodium carbonate, sodium hydroxide, triethlamine and triethanolamine. In aqueous medium, a pH between 6 and 12, preferably between 8 and 10, is maintained. Such procedures are known, for example, from the processes for the preparation of substituted phenyl (.beta.-hydroxyethyl)sulfones (see, for example, German Offenlegungsschrift No. 3,502,991). 2-Chloro-5-(.beta.-hydroxyethylsulfonyl)nitrobenzene itself is described in Example 5 of German Pat. No. 859,462.
Phenylenediamines corresponding to the general formula (6) are, for example, 1,3-diaminobenzene, 1,4-diaminobenzene, 1-sulfo-2,4-diaminobenzene, 1-sulfo-2,5-diaminobenzene, 1-carboxy-2,4-diaminobenzene, 1-carboxy-2,5-diaminobenzene, 1-methyl-2,4-diaminobenzene, 1-methyl-2,5-diaminobenzene, 1-hydroxy-2,4-diaminobenzene, 1-hydroxy-2,5-diaminobenzene, 1-chloro-2,4-diaminobenzene, 1-chloro-2,5-diaminobenzene, 1-methoxy-2,4-diaminobenzene and 1-methoxy-2,5-diaminobenzene.
The likewise novel nitroaniline compounds according to the invention which correspond to the general formula (7) ##STR8## in which R, M and n have the abovementioned meanings, and are obtainable according to the invention in this way are then, after they have been isolated, for example, from the reaction batch by crystallization or by removing the solvent or excess amine by distillation or by acidification and filtration, reduced to the amino compound corresponding to the general formula (5) analogously to known procedures, thus by catalytic hydrogenation using hydrogen on palladium, platinum or Raney nickel at a temperature between 50.degree. and 110.degree. C. and at increased pressure or by Bechamp reduction using iron in an acidic medium, for example using iron in ethanol/glacial acetic acid. The reduction can take place in a solvent which is suitable for this purpose, such as water, methanol or ethanol or a mixture thereof.
After prior separation from catalysts or metallic reducing agents, the amino compound present in the hydrogenation batch can be diazotized directly, without intermediate isolation, with simultaneous ring closure to form the triazole.
So long as their Y moiety denotes the .beta.-hydroxyethyl group, the compounds of the general formula (1) according to the invention and those of the general formula (5) can subsequently be converted using customary and known procedures into compounds in which Y has a meaning other than the .beta.-hydroxyethyl group, thus, for example, into their ester derivatives, such as, for example, of polyvalent inorganic acids or of aliphatic and aromatic carboxylic or sulfonic acids, thus, for example, into compounds in which X stands for the sulfato, phosphato, thiosulfato, acetyloxy or toluylsulfonyloxy group or for a chlorine atom. Esterifying and acylating agents which are suitable for this purpose are, for example, the appropriate inorganic or organic acids or anhydrides or amides thereof, such as, for example, sulfuric acid, sulfur trioxide-containing sulfuric acid, chlorosulfonic acid, amidosulfonic acid, phosphoric acid, phosphorus oxychloride, mixtures of phosphoric acid and phosphorus pentoxide, acetic anhyride, toluenesulfonyl chloride and thionyl chloride.
Those compounds in which Y stands for the vinyl group can be prepared from their analogous ester derivatives by means of alkali, thus in aqueous medium at a pH of 10 to 12 and a temperature between 40.degree. and 50.degree. C. for 10 to 20 minutes. The synthesis of, for example, .beta.-(dialkylamino)ethylsulfonyl and .beta.-thiosulfatoethylsulfonyl derivatives of the compounds (1), (4) and (5) takes place by reacting the vinylsulfonyl compounds thereof with the appropriate dialkylamine or with an alkali metal salt of the thiosulfuric acid, such as sodium thiosulfate.
All these procedures for converting a --SO.sub.2 --Y group into another are known to those skilled in the fiber-reactive area and are described in large number in the literature.
The compounds of the general formula (1) according to the invention--called compounds (1) below--have fiber-reactive properties and have very valuable dye properties. They can therefore be used for dyeing (including printing) hydroxy group-containing and/or carboxamide group-containing materials. It is also possible to use the solutions produced in the synthesis of the compounds (1) directly in dyeing as a liquid preparation, if appropriate after addition of a buffer substance and if appropriate also after concentration.
They can be precipitated and isolated from the aqueous synthesis solutions by 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 alternatively by evaporating the reaction solution itself, for example by spray drying. If the last mentioned type of isolation is selected, it is often advisable to remove before evaporation any amounts of sulfate present in the solutions by precipitation as calcium sulfate and removal by filtration.
The present invention therefore also relates to the use of the compounds (1) for dyeing (including printing) hydroxy and/or carboxamide group-containing materials and to methods for application thereof to 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 fabrics. It is possible here to proceed analogously to known procedures.
Hydroxy group-containing materials are those of natural or synthetic origin, such as, for example, cellulose fiber materials or their regenerated products and polyvinyl alcohols. Cellulose fiber materials are preferably cotton, but also other vegetable fibers, such as linen, hemp, jute and ramie fibers; regenerated cellulose fibers are, for example, staple viscose rayon and filament viscose rayon.
Carboxamide group-containing materials are, for example, synthetic and natural polyamides and polyurethanes, in particular in the form of fibers, for example wool and other animal hairs, silk, leather, nylon-6,6, nylon-6, nylon-11 and nylon-4.
The compounds (1) can be applied and fixed, in accordance with the use according to the invention, to the substrates mentioned, in particular to the fiber materials mentioned, by application techniques which are known for watersoluble dyes, in particular fiber-reactive dyes, for example by applying the compound (1) in dissolved form onto the substrate or introducing it into the substrate and fixing it thereon or therein, if appropriate through the action of heat and/or if appropriate through the action of an alkaline agent. Such dyeing and fixing methods are described in large number in the literature (see, for example, European Patent Application Publication No. 0,181,585 A2).
The dyeings according to the invention, in particular on cellulose fiber materials, have good light fastness properties both when the dyeing is dry and in the wet state, for example moistened by a perspiration solution, and good wet fastness properties, such as, for example, good wash fastness properties at 60 to 95oC, even in the presence of perborates, acid and alkaline fulling, crossdyeing and perspiration fastness properties, good acid and alkaline perspiration fastness properties, a high steam resistance, good alkali, acid, water and seawater fastness properties, and good pleating fastness, hot-press fastness and rub fastness properties. They also have good resistance to acid fading on storage of moist dyed material still containing acetic acid.
The Examples which follow serve to illustrate the invention. Parts are parts by weight, and percentages are percentages by weight, unless otherwise stated. Parts by weight are to parts by volume as the kilogram is to the liter.
The compounds described in these Examples by means of their formulae are specified in the form of the free acids; in general, they are prepared and isolated in the form of their sodium or potassium salts and used for dyeing in the form of their salts. The starting compounds and components mentioned in the Examples which follow, in particular tabulated Examples, in the form of the free acid can likewise be employed in the synthesis as such or in the form of their salts, preferably alkali metal salts, such as sodium salts or potassium salts. The absorption maxima (.lambda..sub.max values) in the visible region for the alkali metal salts of the compounds (1) were determined in aqueous solution.
