Cationic dyestuffs of the formula ##STR1## wherein R represents alkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkyl or aralkyl, R.sub.1 represents hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkyl or aralkyl, R.sub.2 represents alkylene, Y represents oxygen or sulphur, R.sub.3 represents a direct bond or -CO-, A represents a carbocyclic six-membered ring or a heterocyclic ring, X.sup.- represents an anion and m represents the numbers 0 or 1, With the proviso that m can only be 1 if R.sub.3 denotes an alkylene group, are suitable for dyeing and printing of natural and synthetic materials.

The invention relates to new cationic dyestuffs of the general formula ##STR2## wherein R represents an alkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkyl or aralkyl radical,
R.sub.1 represents hydrogen or an alkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkyl or aralkyl radical,
R.sub.2 represents an alkylene group,
18 g of 2-amino-6-methoxybenzthiazole are dissolved in a mixture of 120 ml of glacial acetic acid and 60 ml of water. 29 ml of 48% strength sulphuric acid are then added and the amount of nitrosylsulphuric acid corresponding to 7 g of sodium nitrite is then added dropwise at -5.degree. C. After stirring for a further hour at this temperature, 1 g of amidosulphonic acid is added, the mixture is stirred for a further 10 minutes and a solution of 28.5 g of N-ethyl-N-.beta.-(.beta.-phenoxyethyloxy)-ethyl-aniline in a mixture of 100 ml of propionic acid, 50 ml of glacial acetic acid and 10 g of 78% strength sulphuric acid is then introduced at -5.degree. C. The mixture is stirred for a further hour at -10.degree. C and diluted with water to approx. 600 ml and the product is filtered off. The azo dyestuff is suspended in water and the suspension is neutralised with sodium hydroxide solution. The product is then again filtered off, washed with water and dried in vacuo. The resulting black-violet powder is stirred into 150 ml of chloroform and 25 g of dimethyl sulphate are added dropwise at the boiling point of the chloroform. The mixture is then stirred for a further 90 minutes under reflux cooling and 900 ml of boiling water are then introduced. Hereupon, the chloroform distils off.
40 g of sodium chloride are added to the resulting solution at 50.degree. C, the mixture is cooled and the dyestuff which has crystallised out is filtered off and dried in vacuo. It has the formula ##STR17## and dyes polyacrylonitrile fibres in a blue colour shade of outstanding fastness properties.
The dyestuff can also be prepared by carrying out the quaternisation with p-toluenesulphonic acid methyl ester or with methyl idodide instead of with dimethyl sulphate.
