  • Patent number: 6706864
    Abstract: Water-insoluble violet benzimidazolone monoazo pigments of the formula: wherein R1, R2 and R3 each represent hydrogen, chlorine, bromine, methyl, methoxy, ethoxy, nitro or a group of the formula —COOR with R being hydrogen, methyl or ethyl, and R4 represents hydrogen, chlorine, bromine, methyl, methoxy, ethoxy or nitro group. Due to the presence of two 5-membered heterocyclic rings in the molecule, these pigments display very high thermoresistance and excellent fastness to migration.
