Abstract

A process for the manufacture of quaternized diaminoanthraquinones by reacting alpha-nitro-anthraquinone with an amine of the formula ##STR1## to give 1-aminoanthraquinone (B), halogenating, preferably brominating the compound (B) to give 1-amino-4-halogeno- or 1-amino-2,4-dihalogeno-anthraquinone (C), condensing the compound (C) with a diamine of the formula ##STR2## or with an amine of the formula HNR.sub.3 R.sub.7 to give 1,4-diaminoanthraquinone (D) and subsequently quaternizing compound (D) to give the corresponding quaternized anthraquinone compound (E) which process comprises carrying out the condensation of compound (C) with the amine to form compound (D) and subsequent quaternization steps in one single operation without isolation of the intermediate (D).
