Abstract

An azo compound useful in copying processes of the formula ##STR1## where R.sup.1 is hydrogen or alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 are each alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms, or one of the radicals R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 is unsubstituted phenyl or phenyl substituted by alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms, methoxy or ethoxy, and A denotes ##STR2## where R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 are each hydrogen; alkyl of 1 to 8 carbon atoms which may be substituted by hydroxy, alkoxy, halogen or alkoxycarbonyl; cyanoethyl; alkylcarbonyl with 1 to 3 carbon atoms in the alkyl; cyclohexyl; phenalkyl of 7 to 10 carbon atoms; or substituted or unsubstituted phenyl, or R.sup.4 is N,N-dialkylaminoalkyl or N,N-bisphenalkylaminoalkyl, or the group ##STR3## is a 5-membered or 6-membered saturated heterocyclic ring which may contain an --O-- or --S-- group as ring member, Y is hydroxy, alkyl, alkoxy, chlorine, bromine or alkylcarbonylamino, n is 0, 1 or 2, R.sup.6 and R.sup.7 are each hydrogen, alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms, cyclohexyl or unsubstituted phenyl or phenyl substituted by alkyl or alkoxy, and Z is hydrogen, hydroxy, methoxy, ethoxy or a sulfonic acid group.
