N-alkylated derivatives of Ianilino8amino-1,5dih ydroxyanthraquinone and of 4anilinoSamino-1,8dihydroxyanthraquinone are obtained either by reaction of the corresponding nitro derivatives with alkylamines or of the corresponding amino derivatives with alk yl halides. They are excellent dyes for polyester fibre, giving deep greenish-blue dyeings of good fastness to light and sublimation.
