Abstract

Abstract The invention relates to the preparation of ortho-cyano azo dyestuffs by conversion of azo dyestuffs of the formula ##EQU1## wherein A is an aromatic-carbocyclic radical, K is the radical of a component and X is a chlorine, bromine or iodine atom which is in the o-position to the azo group With CuCN or CuCN-forming compounds in polar organic sovents in the presence of azoles.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 123 words
Process for the preparation of an azo dyestuff which contains in the diazo component at least one cyano group in the orthoposition to the azo bridge, which comprises reacting an azo dyestuff of the general formula ##EQU4## wherein A is an aromatic-carbocyclic radical, K is the radical of a coupling component and X is a chlorine, bromine or iodine atom which is in the o-position to the azo group with CuCN or CuCN-forming compounds in polar organic solvents having a dielectric constant of >10 in the presence of an azole selected from the group consisting of imidazole, 1-methylimidazole, 2-methylimidazole, benzimidazole, 1-methylbenzimidazole, 2-methylbenzimidazole, 2-methylbenzthiazole, 4,5-dimethylthiazole, 2-methylbenzoxazole, and pyrazole, and recovering said azo dyestuff wherein the halogen substituent X is replaced by a cyano substituent.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 123 words
Process for the preparation of an azo dyestuff which contains in the diazo component at least one cyano group in the orthoposition to the azo bridge, which comprises reacting an azo dyestuff of the general formula ##EQU4## wherein A is an aromatic-carbocyclic radical, K is the radical of a coupling component and X is a chlorine, bromine or iodine atom which is in the o-position to the azo group with CuCN or CuCN-forming compounds in polar organic solvents having a dielectric constant of >10 in the presence of an azole selected from the group consisting of imidazole, 1-methylimidazole, 2-methylimidazole, benzimidazole, 1-methylbenzimidazole, 2-methylbenzimidazole, 2-methylbenzthiazole, 4,5-dimethylthiazole, 2-methylbenzoxazole, and pyrazole, and recovering said azo dyestuff wherein the halogen substituent X is replaced by a cyano substituent.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 17 words
Process according to claim 1 wherein the reaction is carried out at temperatures of 40° to 120°C.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 13 words
Process according to claim 1 wherein the reaction is carried out in dimethylformamide/imidazole.
