The dye of the formula I has application defects on leather. More particularly, its penetration is poor.

It is an object of the present invention to provide novel dye mixtures which comprise the dye of formula I and are free of the abovementioned disadvantage.

We have found that this object is achieved by the initially defined dye mixtures.

In any substituted alkyl appearing in the abovementioned formulae, the number of substituents is generally one or two.

Any alkyl appearing in the abovementioned formula III with interruption by oxygen in ether function is preferably interrupted by one or two oxygen atoms in ether function.

Of particular interest are dye mixtures comprising the dyes of the formulae I, II and III in such a ratio that, measured at a pH of about 4 in water, the absorption spectrum of the mixture (I, II and III) shows a ratio of the absorption maxima from 464-465 nm:605-606 nm within the range from 1.3:1 to 1.4:1, preferably within the range from 1.36:1 to 1.4:1, especially about 1.38:1.

The novel dye mixtures are obtainable in a conventional manner. For instance, the individual mixing partners can be mixed with one another in the appropriate weight ratios. However, it is also possible to prepare a mixture of the azo dyes of the formulae I, II and III by mixed coupling and then to mix in the dye C.I. Sulphur Black 1 (53 185).

The dye of the formula I is described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,479,906, for example.

The dye C.I. Sulphur Black 1 (53 185) is commercially available.

The dyes of the formulae II and III are known for example from prior patent applications DE-A-1 953 01 76 and DE-A-1 954 87 85.

The dye mixtures of this invention are advantageously useful for dyeing natural or synthetic substrates, for example wool, leather, polyamide or paper (by the inkjet process, too). They are particularly useful for dyeing leather.

The dyeings obtained have a greenish, bluish to reddish black shade and excellent migration and wet fastness properties. Particular emphasis has to be given to the excellent penetration shown by the novel dye mixtures when used for dyeing leather.

The Examples which follow illustrate the invention.

The following dyes were used:

Dye No. 1

Sodium salt of the dye of the formula I

Dye No. 2

Lithium salt of the dye of the formula I

Dye No. 3

Potassium salt of the dye of the formula I

Dye No. 4

Sodium salt of the dye of the formula IId

Dye No. 5

Lithium salt of the dye of the formula IId

Dye No. 6

Potassium salt of the dye of the formula IId

Dye No. 7

Sodium salt of the dye of the formula IIIb ##STR20## Dye No. 8

Lithium salt of the dye of the formula IIId

Dye No. 9

Potassium salt of the dye of the formula IIId

Dye No. 10

Sodium salt of the dye C.I. Sulphur Black 1 (53 185)

The salts of the dyes Nos. 1 to 9 were obtained by spray drying the respective aqueous solutions.

The salt of the dye No. 10 was obtained by cabinet drying the aqueous solution and subsequent dry grinding.

Dyeing method for side upper leather (parts are by weight)

100 parts of a conventional tanned leather with a shaved thickness of 2.2 mm were neutralized in a drum by drumming for 180 min in 50 parts of water at 40.degree. C. with 2 parts of sodium formate, 0.5 part of sodium bicarbonate and 1 part of sodium acetate and subsequently after addition of 100 parts of water at 30.degree. C. overnight. The leather is then washed in 200 parts of water by drumming for 10 min. Retanning is then carried out in 30 parts of water at 30.degree. C. using 13 parts of a commercially available synthetic tanning agent. After the leather has been drummed in the retanning liquid for 65 min, the dyeing is carried out by adding 2 parts of dye formulation (undissolved) and drumming the leather at 25.degree. C. for 120 min, then adding 150 parts of water and drumming for a further 10 min. After addition of 1 part of concentrated formic acid, the leather is drummed for a further 30 min, and then the liquor is dropped. The leather is then washed by admixing it at 40.degree. C. with 200 parts of water and drumming for 10 min. Thereafter the liquor is again dropped. The fatliquoring is carried out in 100 parts of water at 55.degree. C. by addition of 5 parts of a commercially available fatliquor and drumming for 40 min. After acidification with 1 part of formic acid, the leather is drummed for a further 40 min. Thereafter the leather is rinsed cold, set out, dried, placed in sawdust, staked and dried under reduced pressure.
