  • Patent number: 4000123
    Abstract: Monoazo dyestuffs which in the form of the free acid correspond to the general formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.0, R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4, R.sub.5, R.sub.6 and R.sub.7 have the meaning given in the description and their use for the dyeing of natural and synthetic fibre materials, especially for dyeing polyamide fibres. Dyeings obtained distinguish themselves by very good fastness to light. Dyestuffs are absorbed well on polyamide fibres already in a neutral to weakly acid dye bath. By polyamide fibres there are here especially understood those from synthetic polyamides such as .EPSILON.-polycaprolactam, or condensation products of adipic acid and hexamethylenediamine.
