These dyeing preparations are characterized by that they contain one of the aforementioned dyestuffs, preferably in the form of their alkali metal salts, in particular sodium salts, in aqueous solution in a concentration of 5 to 35%
by weight, preferabl~ 15 to 30% by weight, re~erred to the pure dyestuf~ of the formula ~I) or (II) or ~III) or (IY) or CJ) or CVI) and havlng a pH-value of between 3 and 7, preferably between 5.5 and 6.8~ and additionally contain-ing 1 to 5% by weight of buf~er substances.
The dyestuff of the formula ~I) is described ln German Patent Speci-fication DT-PS 1 206 107~ Example 1, the dyestuff of the formula ~II) is known from German Patent Specification DT-PS 1 282 213, Example 1, the dystu~f of the formula ~III) is known from German Patent DT-PS 1 150 163, Example 1, the d~es!~u~ the~ormula CIV) is known from German Auslegschrift 1 619491, Example 8, the dyestuff of the formula CV) is known from German O~enlegungs-schrift 1 544 538, 1st Example of the Table on page 24, and the d~estu~f of . _ 3 _ ..... . ... .. . - - : ~ .................................. .

~37~903 the eormula ~I) is knol~ from German 0~eenlegungsschrift 1 80~ 524, Examples 4 c~nd 5.
After their synthesis, water-soluble s~eactive dyestuffs are commonly isolated in such a way that they are salted out from the aqueous reaction solution, that the precipitated salt-dyestuff mixture is suction-filtered and the press cake obtained is driecl. Another technically common method to isolate the dissolved dyestuff, which is usually easy to dissolve in water, frwn the synthesis solution, is the direct drying, for example the spray drying, of the preparation solution.
For the desired dyeing purpose, the salt-containing dyestuf powder is usually ad~usted, after the drying process, to a determined dyestuf~ con-tent by the admixture of n0utral inorganic salts, ~or example sodium sulfate.
However, these common powder formulations of reactive dyestuffs have several drawbacks which are due particularly to the dust formation of these pulverulent dyeing preparations when they are being handled, or example during emptying or re-filling weighing and measuring, or in the preparation of the dyebaths or prin~ing pastes. In this connection, this dust formation not only represents an annoyance for the workers in the manufacturing plant or the ap-plication unit, but in the dyeing or printing processes it may also lead to `~
unpleasant specks of undyed or already dyed merchandise, due to the settling of the dyestuff dust. On the other hand, the dust removal of pulverulent d~e-stuffs by means o~ the common dust removing agents on the basis of mineral oil alwa~s involves the risk of oily deposits in the dyeing and printing opera-tions, which leads to stained, and thus useless, dyeings and printings. More-overJ these pulverulent dyestuffs often prevent the application o:~ measures of rationalization which are technically desirable, such as, or example, con-tinuous d~eing processes or automatic measuring and weighing de~ices.
These drawbacks which are equally true ~or the pulverulent d~estu$~s ~70~903 of the ~ormulae (I), ~II), (III), (IV), (V) and (VI) are completelr avoided by the liquid pr~parations of the inventlon of the respective dyestuffs. -Moreover, the novel preparations have the advantage, both for the dyestuff producers and those who use them, in comparison with the pulverulent dyestuff formulations, that the salt charge of the waste water is considerably reduced.
The novel liquid dyeing preparations of the dyestu~fs of the formula (I), (II), (III), (IV), CV) or ~I) are prepared in such a way - in accordance with the invention - that the clarified dyestuff solution obtained by the syn~
thesis is used directly and is optionally, i.e. advantageously, adjusted to the desired higher dyestuff content, either by concentration7 for example~ by re-moval by distillation of a part of the water in vacuo, or advantageously by adding a dried, for example spray-dried, proportion o the same clari~ied dye~
stuff solution obtained in the synthesis in which process buf~er substances are also added to this dyestuff solution in all cases.
For the preparation of these dyeing compositlons according to the inventi~n which have up to 35% by weight of dyestuff, it is advantageou~ to use aqueous clarified dyestuff solutions as starting compounds, which have a content of inert salts, such as sodium sulfate or sodium chlorideJ that is as low as possible and is less than ~0~ ~y weight of the dyestuf~ content of these dyestuff solutions obtained in the synthesis. ~or the preparation of dyeing compositions having a lower dyestuff content, such as those containing up to 15% by weight of dyestuEf, the content of inert salt of the starting solution should be lower than their dyestuff content. As a rule, the content of inert salt of the aqueous dyestuff solutions obtained in the synthesis is below these limits. In order to keep the content of inert salts below these limits, also for solutions of ~he reactive dyestuff with the ~-sulfa~oeth~l-sulfonyl group which has been obtained by esterification of the ~ hydro~y-ethylsulfonyl group with concentrated sul~uric acid, the excess sul~uric ~cid _ ..

~7(~g~33 necessary or ~he formation o~ this sulfuric acid semi-ester group cannot be neutralized with soclium hydroxide solution or other reagents which lead to easily soluble inert salts. It is recommended, rathe~r, to neutralize the ex-cess sulfuric acid l~ith calcium carbonate and to scpclrate the dyestuf solu~
tion from the sparingly soluble calcium sulfate by way of iltration. This process has been described, inter alia, in German O~enlegungsschriften No.
1.955.849, Example l; No. 2.049.664, Example 1, and No. 2.06~.081, Example 2.
The solutions of the dyestuff of the formula ~I), ~II), (III), ~IV), ~V) or ~VI) obtained by the synthesis contain from 5 to 15% by weight o dye-stuff and may be adjusted to a dyestuff content of from about 30 to 35% by weight by the addition of dried dyestuff or by removal o~ water ~y distilla-tion under reduced pressure.
For the dyestuff producer, there is no need anymore or the mothe*
liquors which have a very high content o salt and which are partially satu-rated with salt, and also for those who use the dyestuf~s, the salt content of the waste water is considerably reduced, since the amounts of salt used for the adjustment of the dyestuff powders are no longer required ;n the prepara-tion of the liquid formulations according to the invention.
For the dyeing preparations of the invention, all buf~er substances ~Q are suitable that are unable to react chemically with the ~-sulfatoethylsul-fonyl group, or its ~inylsulfonyl analog, which would lead to a reduced dye-stuf yield, such as sodium and potassium acetate, sodium and potasslum oxa-late, the acid sodium and potassium salts o~ phosphoric acid, mixtures of the different sodiu~l or potassium salts o~ phosphoric acid, as well as sodium borate. There are preferred sodium borate and disodium-hydrogenophosphate as well as sodium-dihydroge~ophosphate.
The mechanlsm of the reaction of reacti~e dyestu~$s of t~e above type ~ith cellulose fibers is generally known. Thus, the ~ormation o$

Furthermore, it has been known from the use of the reactive dyestufs with the ~-sulfatoethyl-sulfonyl group, that this reactive group, also in the form of its vinyl-sulfonyl group, with water shows a reaction - not only in the presence of alkalies, but also in the acid range - that is concurrent with the dyeing reaction (4) itself, according to reactions ~2) or ~3) of the scheme, and results in the S-hydroxyethyl-sulfonyl group which is but slow to react with the fiber substrate.

wherein F respresents the radical of the d~estuff molecule and m has the above meaning, and cell.-OH stands for the cellulose.
The hydrolysis ~2) and the addition of water ~3) are practically irreversible under dyeing conditions and thus reduce the dyestuff yield.
For this reason, in the manufacture o~ water~soluble reactive dye-stuffs, the above-mentioned separationanddr~ing o~ the reactive dyestuf~s 2Q ~rom the synthesis solution is in general also carried out, with regard to ~ 7 --, " ' ~ ~:' ' : ' ~L~7~9~3 time, too, directly after the s~lthesis in order to a~oid losses of the tinc-torial strength.
Thus, it w~s the more surprising to find that neutral to weakly acidic aqueous buffered solutions, which contain one of the reactive dyestuffs ~I~ or ~II) or (III) or ~IV) or ~) or (VI), can be stored over a fairly long period of time without reduction of their tinctorial strength. Aqueous solu-tions of the dyestuff of the formula (i) or (II) or (III) or (I~) or ~V) or ~ -IVI) according to the invention yield dyeings and prints unaltered intensity of shade, even after a storage of several months, for example 6 months, at room temperature or after storage o several weeks, for example 8 weeks, at 50C.
The dyeing preparations of the invention are suitable for the dye-ing and printing of fibrous materials of wool, silk, polyamide and natural or regenerated cellulose, or of fiber mixtures containing one or several of the types of fibers mentioned, according to the methods usually employed and well known in the dyeing with reactive dyestuffs, after dilution with water and, optionally, after addition of the usual dyeing auxiliary agents or, in cor-responding manner, after addition of the thickeners usually employed in print-ing and, optionally, of printing auxiliary agents.
