Definitions
- the present invention relates to the use of derivatives of ketogluconic acid as photographic agents.
- Silver halide emulsions are coated on various papers and films for use in photographic applications. When these emulsions have been exposed to radiation, the sensitized emulsion produces a latent image in the silver halide grains. The image is latent because the grains are sensitized to reduction by the formation of minute quantities of free silver in the grains from the exposure. These grains are developed by placing the exposed photosensitive material in an aqueous solution containing one or more specific reducing chemicals. There are very few reducing agents which will only develop the latent image and not reduce the unexposed silver halide.
- the reducing agents conventionally employed include such organic materials as hydroquinone and other materials meeting the criteria of the Kendall-Pelz rule.
- B is carbon or nitrogen
- a and a' are OH, NH 2 , NHR,, NR.R 2 .
- chemicals meeting this rule are hydroquinone, catechol, pyrogallol, ascorbic acid and its stereoisomers, and derivatives of phenylenediamine.
- An example of a developing agent which is an exception to the rule is 1-phenyl-3-pyrazolidone (Phenidone).
- Two of these developing agents may be used in the same formulation to produce a result known in the photographic industry as superadditivity, also known as synergy. It is defined as the mixture of two developing agents showing a greater degree of developer activity than the sum of the actions of each agent separately.
- SUBSTITUTE SHEET Figs. 1-6 are graphs showing the effect of various ketogluconates on photographic media.
- the present invention is directed to a process for the development of a photographic image on a photographic medium comprising reducing the photosensitized silver on said medium with an effective amount of (a) a compound selected from the group consisting of alkali metal salts, alkaline earth metal salts, amine salts of ketogluconic acid, alkali metal salts, alkaline earth metal salts and amine salts of stereoisomers of ketogluconic acid; and C--C 4 alkyl esters of ketogluconic acid and C,-C 4 alkyl esters of stereoisomers of ketogluconic acid; and (b) a co-developer.
- the salt of ketogluconic acid is sodium-2-ketogluconate.
- the ester is the methyl ester.
- the methyl ester is methyl-2-ketogluconate.
- the alkaline earth metal salt is calcium- 2,5-diketogluconate.
- the co-developer is selected from the group consisting of 4-methylaminophenol, 1-phenyl-3-pyrazolidone, and para-phenylenediamines.

- a developing agent selected from the group consisting of alkali metal salts, alkaline earth metal salts, amine salts of ketogluconic acid; alkali metal salts, alkaline earth metal salts and amine salts of stereoisomers thereof; C,-C 4 alkyl esters of said salts of ketogluconic acid and stereoisomers thereof; and (b) a co-developer.
- the co-developer is selected from the group consisting of 4-methylaminophenol, 1-phenyl-3-pyrazolidone, and para- phenylenediamines.
