Abstract: Chromiferous complex dyestuff of the formula: ##STR1## in which A represents a hydrogen atom, an unsubstituted phenyl group or a phenyl group substituted by one or two halogen atoms or alkyl groups containing 1 to 4 carbon atoms and the nucleus B is unsubstituted or substituted by one or two chlorine atoms; salts of such dyestuff; process for the preparation of such a dyestuff which comprises reacting in equimolecular proportions the 1/1 chromiferous complex of a monoazo dyestuff of the formula: ##STR2## and a monoazo dyestuff of the formula: ##STR3## or, conversely, the 1/1 chromiferous complex of a monoazo dyestuff of formula (III) and a monoazo dyestuff of formula (II) wherein A and B have the meanings given above; process for the coloration or dyeing in bulk of a synthetic polyamide in which the coloring agent is a dyestuff of the formula given above or a salt thereof and materials and articles of synthetic polyamide dyed or colored in bulk by means of chromiferous complex of the formula given above or a

Abstract: Process for dyeing or printing synthetic or artificial hydrophobic textile fibers in an aqueous medium with a 1:1 premetallized dyestuff complex of monocationic character of a transition metal, the cationic part of which dyestuff does not contain an ionized group (dyestuff (I)), in which the fibers are treated at a temperature at least equal to 80.degree. C. with a complexing agent (III), sparingly soluble in water and not containing an ionized group and more soluble in the fiber than in the aqueous dyeing medium of pH from 3 to 7, and with the premetallized dyestuff (I), the complexing agent being capable of fixation on the metal of the premetallized dyestuff with liberation of a proton, and synthetic or artificial hydrophobic textile fibers dyed or printed by such process.
