Abstract: Compounds of the general formula ##STR1## in which R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are identical or different and denote hydrogen, chlorine or bromine, methyl, ethyl, methoxy, ethoxy or nitro and K denotes identical or different radicals of enolizable ketomethylene compounds which do not contain groups imparting solubility in water, are obtained by coupling one equivalent of the bisdiazonium compound obtained by bisdiazotizing the diamine of the formula ##STR2## in which R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 have the meaning mentioned above, with 2 equivalents of one or more compounds of the formula KH in which K has the meaning mentioned above. These disazo compounds are pigments which have a high tinctorial strength and good fastness to migration, light, heat and chemicals.

Abstract: When diazotizing a p-amino-benzoic acid anilide, the anilide nucleus of which is substituted in its paraposition by carbamoyl, acetamino or chloro and coupling it onto 5-acetoacetylamino-benzimidazolone-(2) monoazo pigments are obtained having a high fastness to light, solvents, overlacquering and bleeding and a very high heat resistance.

Abstract: When diazotizing a benzanilide of the formula ##STR1## wherein R is methoxy and X is carbamoyl or acetamino and coupling it onto 5-acetoacetylaminobenzimidazolone-(2), a monoazo pigment is obtained having the formula ##STR2## wherein R is methoxy and X is carbamoyl or acetamino. The monoazo pigments are effective for coloring plastics and lacquers and exhibit a very good fastness to light, solvents, over-lacquering, bleeding and have a high heat resistance.

Abstract: When diazotizing a benzanilide of the formula ##STR1## wherein R is chloro, methyl or methoxy and X is carbamoyl or acetamino, or, when R is chloro or methyl, X is also methyl or chloro, and coupling it onto 5-acetoacetylaminobenzimidazolone-(2), monoazo pigments are obtained which are useful for coloring plastics and lacquers. The pigments have a very good fastness to light, solvents, over-lacquering, bleeding and a high heat resistance.
