Anthraquinone compounds and the production and use thereof

Abstract

There are described new anthraquinone compounds which, in the form of the free acid, correspond to the formula I ##STR1## wherein the X's independently of one another are each a straight-chain or branched-chain alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, Y is hydrogen or is the same as X, and wherein the phenyl rings a can also be substituted by one or more halogen atoms, the production and use thereof, and also dye solutions containing a solvent mixture consisting of one or more aprotic solvents, at least one glycol and/or glycol ether, and optionally water and further additives, which solutions contain in each case a mixture of two anthraquinone dyes which, in the form of the free acid, correspond to the formulae I and IV ##STR2## wherein the X's independently of one another are each a straight-chain or branched-chain alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, Y is hydrogen or is the same as X, and wherein the phenyl rings a can also be substituted by one or more halogen atoms.
