Abstract
A process for the preparation of basic oxazine dyes of the formula ##STR1## wherein R represents a low molecular alkoxy or alkyl group which is substituted or unsubstituted, R.sub.1 represents a low molecular alkyl group which is substituted or unsubstituted, R.sub.2 represents a low molecular alkyl group which is substituted or unsubstituted or an aryl radical, and each of R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 independently represents hydrogen or a low molecular alkyl radical which is substituted or unsubstituted, and R.sub.1 may be attached to R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 to R.sub.4 through a heteroatom, and wherein the ring a can carry further non-ionogenic substituents or a fused benzene ring, and X.sup.- represents an anion, which process comprises treating a compound of the formula ##STR2## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and a have the meanings previously assigned to them, with nitrous acid in a polar, water-miscible solvent and adding to the resultant nitrosation mixture, without isolating the nitroso compound, a diamine of the formula ##STR3## wherein R, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 have the indicated meanings and each of R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 represents hydrogen or a low molecular alkyl group.
