This document discusses different types of azo dyes. Azo dyes contain an azo group (-N=N-) in their chemical structure. They are classified based on the number of azo groups, including mono azo, bis azo, tris azo and tetra azo dyes. Mono azo dyes contain one azo group and are further divided into classes like solvent, pigment, mordant, basic, disperse and reactive dyes. Bis azo dyes contain two azo groups and are classified into types based on their chemical structure and method of preparation, such as AZA', AM E, D E' and AZ x Z' A'. Examples of different azo
2. WHAT IS AZO DYES??
• DEFINATION:
The dyes containing azo group (-N=N) in chemical constitution
(nucleous) are known as azo dyes.
3. CLASSIFICATION OF AZO DYES:-
AZO DYES are further classified according to presence of azo group (-N=N)
In the chemical constitution.
A. Mono Azo Dyes
B. Bis (Dis) Azo Dyes
C. Tris Azo Dyes
D. Tetra Azo Dyes
E. Poly Azo dyes
4. [A]Mono Azo Dyes
• Mono Azo dyes containing one azo groups in its chemical constition
known as Mono Azo dyes.
• This class of dyes represented as AE.
• Where, A is the Diazonium component.
E is the coupling components.
• The Mono Azo Dyes could be with or without solubilizing group such
as -So3H or –CooH group.
5. • Mono Azo Dyes are further classified into the following classes
according to the application on the fibers.
1) Solvent Mono Azo Dyes
2) Pigment Mono Azo Dyes
3) Mordant Mono Azo Dyes
4) Basic (cationic) Mono Azo Dyes
5) Disperse Mono Azo Dyes
6) Reactive Mono Azo Dyes
7) Ingain Mono Azo Dyes
6. 1) Solvent Mono Azo Dyes
• A few mono azo dyes find used as a solvent dyes. This class of dyes
not having any solubilizing group.
• Ex:- Solvent Red R or Sudan Red R CI-12155
• Sudan Red R is prepared by diazotization of cresidine and coupling
with β-Naphthol.

• Certain insoluble mono azo dyes are used as pigment following are
the important example of this class.
• Ex:-pigments orange 5 CI-12075
• 2,4dinitro aniline β- naphthol

8. • This dyes can not apply directly to the fiber but it require basic
mordant on the fiber.
• They are capable of forming complex metallic compound known as
lake.
• Mordant azo dyes are characteristics bye the presence of o-hydroxyl
group reactive to the azo linkage allowing metal complex formation.
• Importance of mordant dyes is due to there high fastness to light and
washing.
3) Mordant Mono Azo Dyes
9. 4)Basic mono azo dyes
• Basic dyes have –NH2 or –NR2 group as the auxochromic group and
chromophore system is –N=N group.
• In general the light fastness & washing fastness is vey poor. Due to
these reason basic dyes is generally not used in textile industry.
• Ex:- Aniline yellow
Aniline Aniline
• It is used for coloring butter, oil and margarine.
NN NH2
11. 5)Disperse Mono Azo Dyes
• Disperse Dyes is mainly used for imparting yellow to blue shade on
poly ester fiber. It is also used for natural fiber such as wool & silk.
• Disperse Mono Azo Dyes have simple structure and small molecular
size. Thus, it is easily pass into the fiber structure.
• Ex:- Disperse Red 13 Or Cellition scanet β
• It is prepared diazotization of 2-chloro 4 nitro aniline and couple with
N-ethyl N-hydroxyl ethyl aniline.

14. 7) Ingain Mono Azo Dyes
• These are water insoluble azo dyes which are formed on the fiber.
They are prepare by dipping the fabric in alkaline solution of coupling
component and then immersing in a solution of diazotize amine.
• The most important example of these group is Para Red.
• Ex:- P-nitra Aniline β-nephthol

15. Soluble Mono Azo Dyes
• Some azo dyes easily soluble in water due to the presence of water
solubilzing group such as –So3H and –CooH group.
• Following are the important soluble mono azo dyes.
1) Acid dyes
2) Mordant dyes
3) Direct dyes
4) Food color dyes
16. 1) Acid dyes
• This class of dyes containing acidic –So3H and –COOH group this
acidic group make the dyes more soluble and it is also used as the
reacting point for fixing the dyes.
• In acidic dyes the acidic group act as auxochrome.
• Following are the important example of this class.

• Acid blue 92 is a acidic mono dye. It is used for dyeing cotton and
wool.
• It is a prepared by diazotization of H-acid in presence of cold solution
of nitrus acid at low temperature and finally coupling with N-phenyl
peri acid and alkaline medium.
• H- acid N-phenyl Peri Acid
19. 2) Mordant dyes
• There are also mordant dye containing soluble –so3H group. They
have –oH group ortho to the azo linkage which is capable for orming a
complex with the mordant.

• The dye which is containing two azo group in its chemical are known
as bis azo dyes.
• A large number of azo dyes belong to this group.This method of
preparation are represented by symbol given below.
• There are four such classes of bis azo dyes. Each class is assigned a
general formula as follows.
• 1) A Z A'
• 2) A M E

diazotized.
• E = cupling component which couples with one moleculer of
diazo component.

24. 1) Bis Azo dyes of the type A Z A'
• Most of the dyes in this group are acid and mordant dyes. Dyes of the
class are not vary popular due to their dull shades.
• Various coupling component (Z) can be used for the preparation of
this type of dyes. Such as resorcinol, metaphenyline di amine, H-acid,
J-acid, ϒ-acid.
• Following are the example of these class.
• Ex:- Acid Black-I or Naphthol blue black
P- nitro aniline H-Acid Aniline
• Acid black-I is dis azo dyes [A Z A’]. It is prepared by

26. 2) Bis Azo dyes of the type A M E
• In this class of dyes the middle component (M) involve on aryl amino
group which is capable of diazotization and further coupling with
suitable end component E.
• These are two types of middle component in used.
• In the first type on aryl amine used as M coupled with diazonium salt
A, giving a P-amino azo benzene type of dyes.
• Such as, O-toluidine, aniline, O-anisidine etc.
• The second type of M, has one phenolic group and also containing
and amino group, which after the first coupling can be diazotized and
further couple with an compound E.
27. • Ex:- Acid Blue 113 or Acid cynine Blue 52
Metanilic Acid 1- naphthyl amine N phenyl Peri

the process of obtaining doubly diazonium group is known as Tetra
azotization.
• Various aryl diamines (D) are used for the preparation of this class of
dyes.
• Such as,Benzidine,m-Phenylene diamine ,o-dianisidine etc.

• Almost, all members of this class of dyes belong to direct dyes.
• "X" the linking bridge can be made by using a condensing agent like
phosgine and cynuric chloride.
• This type of bis azo dyes prepared by two ways.
• Method : 1
• The phosgination of two mono azo dyes containing a free amino
group resulting in an urea derivative.
• Method : 2
• In this method j - acid urea is used as a coupling component which is
couple with two diazo component.
