The dyeing and printing of paper is effected by known methods. The dyeings and prints and particularly those obtained on paper, show good fastness properties. The compounds of formula 1 may be converted into dyeing preparations. Processing into stable liquid, preferably aqueous, or solid (granulated or powder form) dyeing preparations may take place in a generally known manner. Advantageously suitable liquid dyeing preparations may be made by dissolving the dyestuff in suitable solvents such as mineral acids or organic acids, e.g., hydrochloric acid, sulphuric acid, phosphoric acid, formic acid, acetic acid, lactic acid, glycolic acid, citric acid and methanesulphonic acid. Furthermore formamide, dimtheylformamide, urea, glycols and ethers thereof, dextrin or addition products of boric acid with sorbit may be used together with water, optionally adding an assistant, e.g. a stabilizer. Such preparations may be obtained, for example, as described in French patent specification No. 1 ,572.030. The compounds of formula I (in the corresponding salt form) have good solubility especially in cold water. Owing to their high substantivity the compounds of the present invention exhaust practically quantitatively and show a good build-up power. They can be added to the stock directly, i.e. without previously dissolving, as either a dry powder or granulate, without reducing the brilliance or the yield of color. They can also be used in soft water without loss of yield. They do not mottle when applied on paper, are not inclined to give two-sided dyeing on paper and are practically insensitive to filler or pH variations. They operate over a broad pH range, in the range of from pH 3 to 10. When producing sized or unsized paper, the waste water is essentially colorless. This feature, which is extremely important from an environmental view-point, when compared with similar known dyes, shows a marked improvement. A sized paper dyeing when compared with the corresponding unsized paper dyeing does not show any decrease in strength. The paper dyeings or printings made with the compounds, in particular the metal-free forms, according to the invention are clear and brilliant and have good light fastness: On exposure to light for a long time, the shade of the dyeing fades tone in tone. They show very good wet fastness properties; being fast to water, milk, fruit juice, sweetened mineral water, tonic water, soap and sodium chloride solution, urine etc. Furthermore, they have good alcohol fastness properties. The wet fastness properties are improved compared to known dyes showing otherwise similar properties. They do not exhibit a tendency towards two- sidedness. Paper dyed or printed with the compounds of the present invention can be bleached either oxidatively or reductively, a feature which is important for the recycling of waste and old paper/paper products. It has surprisingly been found that the dyes of the present invention demonstrate excellent bleachability, particularly when bleaching is carried out reductively. This property, together with the improved backwater results and wet-fastness, shows a marked improvement over known dyes having otherwise similar properties. The compounds of the present invention may also be used to dye paper containing wood-pulp where even dyeings, having good fastness properties are obtained. Furthermore, they may be used for the production of coated paper in accordance with known methods. Preferably when coating, a suitable filler, for example kaolin, is employed in order to give a one-side coated paper. The compounds of the present invention are also suitable for dyeing in combination with other dyes for example other cationic or anionic dyes. The compatibility of the compounds of the present invention when used as a dye in mixtures with other commercially available dyes, may be determined according to conventional methods. The thus obtained dyeings have good fastness properties. The invention further provides a substrate which has been dyed or printed with a compound of the present invention. The substrate may be selected from any of the above mentioned substrates. A preferred substrate is a substrate comprising cellulose such as cotton or paper or paper based product. The invention further provides a preferred process of dyeing paper comprising the continuous introduction into a stock solution which is being constantly agitated, of a dye of the present invention. The invention yet further provides use of a compound of the present invention for dyeing or printing any of the abovementioned substrates The following Examples further serve to illustrate the invention. In the Examples all parts and al percentages are by weight or volume, and the temperatures given are in degrees Celsius, unless indicated to the contrary.

The pH is kept at 4.5-5 using strong sodium hydrogen carbonate. After 3 hours it brought to pH 10 with 30 % NaOH and the precipitated dyestuff is filtered off. A dyestuff of the following formula is obtained. The dyestuff is very soluble in dilute acids, particularly organic acids such as formic acid, lactic acid, acetic acid and methoxyacetic acid. The solution dyes paper in brilliant scarlet nuances. The obtained dyes show excellent light stability and wet fastness (against water, alcohol, milk, soapy water, sodium chloride solution, tonic water, urine etc.) and demonstrate excellent properties with respect to two-sidedness. Furthermore they bleach very well, either oxidatively or reductively.

Application Example E 100 parts freshly tanned and neutralized chrome leather are agitated for 30 minutes in a vessel with a liquor consisting of 250 parts of water at 55° and 0 5 parts of the dyestuff of Example 1 in acid addition salt form, and then treated in the same bath for 30 minutes with 2 parts of an anionic fatty hcker based on sulphonated train oil The leather is then dried and prepared in the normal way, giving a leather evenly dyed in a brilliant scarlet red shade By a method analogous to that described in Application Example E the dyestuffs according to Examples 2- 19 may be used for dyeing leather Further vegetable-tanned leathers of low affinity may be dyed using the dyestuffs as described herein in accordance with known methods Application Example F Water is added to a dry pulp in Hollander consisting of 60% (by weight) of mechanical wood pulp and 40% (by weight) of unbleached sulphite cellulose, and the slurry is beaten in order to obtain a dry content slightly exceeding 2.5% and having a beating degree of 40° SR (degrees Schopper-Riegler) The slurry is then exactly adjusted to a high density dry content of 2.5% by adding water 5 Parts of a 2 5% aqueous solution of the dyestuff according to Example 1 are added to 200 parts of the above resulting slurry The mixture is stirred for about 5 minutes and, after the addition of 2% (by weight) resin size and then 4% (by weight) alum (based on the dry weight) is further stirred for a few minutes until homogeneous. The resulting pulp is diluted with about 500 parts water to a volume of 700 parts and then used for the production of paper sheets by suction on a sheet former. The resulting paper sheets are dyed a brilliant scarlet red By a method analogous to that described in Application Example F any one of the dyestuffs of Examples 2- 19 may be used instead of that of Example 1. In all cases, the waste paper exhibits a substantially low residual dye concentration Application Example G Water is added to a dry pulp in a Hollander consisting of 50% (by weight) of chemically bleached sulphite cellulose obtained from pinewood and 50% (by weight) of chemically bleached sulphite cellulose obtained from birchwood, and the slurry is ground until a degree of grinding of 35° SR is reached The slurry is then adjusted to a high density dry content of 2 5% by adding water, and the pH of this suspension is adjusted to 7 10 Parts of a 0 57c aqueous solution of the dyestuff mixture adjusted according to Example ° are added to 200 parts of the above resulting slurry, and the mixture is stirred for 5 minutes The resulting pulp is diluted with 500 parts water and then used for the production of sheets by suction on a sheet former The paper sheets thus obtained have a brilliant blue shade By a method analogous to that described in Application Example G further dye mixtures may be used consisting of any one of the dyestuffs of Examples 2-19. In all cases, paper sheets are formed having a brilliant scarlet red shade.
