n is 0 or 1,
m is 0 or 1,
Y is vinyl or a radical of the formula C

-alkylene with or without interruption by 1 or 2 nonadjacent oxygen atoms or 1 or 2 imino groups or is cyclohexylene,
Hal is fluorine or chlorine,
R
1
is hydrogen or hydroxysulfonylmethyl,
R
2
is hydrogen or hydroxysulfonylmethyl, and
R
3
is carboxyl or hydroxysulfonyl and may also be hydrogen when R
1
and/or R
2
are each hydroxysulfonylmethyl,
their mixtures and their use for dyeing or printing hydroxyl-containing or nitrogenous substrates.
EP-A-074 928 describes similar azo dyes having a sulfato or hydroxyethylsulfonylethylaminochlorotriazineamino radical on the sulfophenyl diazo component.
EP-A-772 653 concerns azo dyes prepared from &ggr;-acid which has been sulfomethylated at the amino group and a diaminobenzenesulfonic acid diazo component in which one of the amino groups is joined through a chlorotriazineamino radical to sulfatoethylsulfonylbenzene.
EP-A-499 588 teaches dyes having a chloroethylsulfonylethylaminochlorotriazine radical on the sulfophenyl diazo component, which was coupled onto &ggr;-acid.
There continues to be a need for red lightfast reactive dyes to fill a large gap in the market. Prior art dyes are unsatisfactory with regard to their application properties, especially their lightfastnesses.
It is an object of the present invention to provide red dyes having an advantageous property profile, especially good wet- and lightfastnesses.
We have found that this object is achieved by the reactive dyes of the formula I defined at the beginning, their mixtures and their use for dyeing or printing hydroxyl-containing or nitrogenous substrates.
The novel reactive dyes of the formula I are each indicated in the form of the free acid. It will be appreciated that their salts are encompassed by the invention, too.
Suitable cations are derived from metal or ammonium ions. Metal ions are especially lithium, sodium or potassium ions. Ammonium ions for the purposes of the present invention are substituted or unsubstituted ammonium cations. Examples of substituted ammonium cations are monoalkyl-, dialkyl, trialkyl-, tetraalkyl- or benzyltrialkyl-ammonium cations or those cations derived from nitrogenous five- or six-membered saturated heterocycles, such as pyrrolidinium, piperidinium, morpholinium, piperazinium or N-alkylpiperazinium cations or their N-monoalkyl- or N,N-dialkylsubstituted products. Alkyl is generally straight-chain or branched C

Aromatic diamines useful as diazo component and also attachment site to the cyanuric halide include for example 2,4-diaminobenzenesulfonic acid, 2,5-diaminobenzenesulfonic acid, 4,6-diaminobenzene-1,3-disulfonic acid and 2,5-diaminobenzene-1,4-disulfonic acid.
Suitable coupling components include for example the aminonaphthalenesulfonic acids 2-naphthylamine-3,6-disulfonic acid, 2-naphthylamine-5,7-disulfonic acid, 2-naphthylamine-6,8-disulfonic acid, 2-hydroxysulfonylmethylaminonaphthalene-5-sulfonic acid or 2-hydroxysulfonylmethylaminonaphthalene-6-sulfonic acid.
Suitable coupling components further include aminonaphtholsulfonic acids such as 2-amino-5-hydroxynaphthalene-7-sulfonic acid, 2-amino-8-hydroxynaphthalene-6-sulfonic acid, 2-amino-8-hydroxynaphthalene-3,6-disulfonic acid, 2-amino-5-hydroxynaphthalene-1,7-disulfonic acid, 2-amino-7-hydroxysulfonylmethyl-8-hydroxynaphthalene-6-sulfonic acid, 2-hydroxysulfonylmethylamino-8-hydroxynaphthalene-6-sulfonic acid, 2-hydroxysulfonylmethylamino-7-hydroxysulfonyl-methyl-8-hydroxynaphthalene-6-sulfonic acid.
Preference is given to reactive dyes of the formula I wherein R
3
is carboxyl or preferably hydroxysulfonyl.
Preference is also given to reactive dyes of the formula I wherein R
1
is hydrogen.
Preference is further given to reactive dyes of the formula I wherein R
3
is hydrogen and R
1
is hydroxysulfonylmethyl.
Preference is moreover given to reactive dyes of the formula I where Y is vinyl or 2-sulfatoethyl, 2-thiosulfatoethyl, 2-chloroethyl or acetoxyethyl in the fiber-reactive radical —SO

Reactive dyes containing coupling components of the general formula II a-d
where R

are each as defined above, are also preferred.
Preference is given especially to dyes of the general formula III
where R

, Hal, L and Y are each as defined above.
Preference is further given to reactive dyes of the formula I where L is ethylene.
Preference is given particularly to dyes of the general formula I and III and also to those containing coupling components of the formula IIa-d, wherein R
1

Preference is also given to reactive dyes wherein the hydroxysulfonyl group in the phenyl ring is ortho to the diazo group.
The novel reactive dyes of the general formula I are obtainable in a conventional manner.
For example, a phenylenediamine of the formula
where R

These amines of the formula V are conventionally diazotized and acid-coupled onto coupling components of the formula II
where R

in aqueous solution at pH 5-6 to obtain the dyes of the invention.
The order of the elementary reactions is discretionary. Thus, in a further process variant, the halogen in the amine of the formula V is first replaced by the amine of the formula VI, prior to diazotization and coupling onto the naphthalenesulfonic acid of the formula II.
Hydroxysulfonyl-substituted naphthalenesulfonic acids are obtained in a conventional manner by reaction with hydroxymethanesulfonic acid.
The present invention further provides mixtures of the dyes of the formula I with from 0.1 to 30 parts by weight of one or more red, orange, yellow or blue dyes based on 100 parts by weight of reactive dye I.
