Abstract

Abstract This invention relates to a new group of trisazo compounds that are useful as direct dyes for cellulosic textiles, paper and leather; imparting a black coloration thereto. The new dye is intended to replace the widely used paper dye known as C.I. Direct Black 38--a dye synthesized from an intermediate (benzidine) whose use is being curtailed because it is a known carcinogen.
