Abstract
A process for the preparation of mixed crystals of 1,4-diketopyrrolo�3,4-c!pyrroles, consisting of 1 mol each of two different compounds of formula ##STR1## by heating a corresponding mixture in solid form to the temperature range from 220.degree. to 380.degree. C. A and B are, for example, each a group of formula ##STR2## wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are each independently hydrogen, chloro, bromo, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkoxy, C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkylamino, phenyl or --CN, G is --O--, --NR.sub.7 --, --N.dbd.N-- or --SO.sub.2 --, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are hydrogen, and R.sub.7 is hydrogen, methyl or ethyl. The mixed crystals and solid solutions obtained are excellently suited for pigmenting high molecular weight material.
