Description

【0001】
【産業上の利用分野】
本発明は新規ケトクマリン誘導体及びかかる誘導体からなるフォトポリマー用増感色素に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
フォトポリマー組成物は光エネルギーの感受により光照射部と未照射部に物性変化を示す材料であり、印刷、超LSIなどの微細加工、プリント回路形成、UV硬化塗料やインキ、ホログラム記録などの広い分野に実用され、その用途はますます拡大されている。この組成物は基本的には光重合開始剤、光重合可能な化合物およびバインダーポリマーからなり、通常は紫外域に感度を有しており、水銀灯のg線、i線や高出力アルゴンレーザーの紫外部発振線などを用いて画像の記録が行われている。
【0003】
近年、紫外光の代わりに可視レーザー光を用いて画像記録を行う技術の開発が盛んに進められている。通常上記組成物は可視光には感度を有しておらず、記録光に対し分光感度を持たせるために、増感色素の使用が必要不可欠の技術要素となっている。かかる増感色素の特性としては、(1)溶媒に対し優れた溶解性を有すること、(2)記録光の波長での吸収係数が大きいこと、(3)感光波長が記録光の波長とよく一致すること、(4)高感度であること、(5)他の成分との相溶性が良いこと、(6)保存安定性が良いことなどが要求される。
【0004】
これらの要求特性のうち、(1)は色素がこの技術に使用できるかどうかを決める第1条件であり、この条件を満たして初めて次の(2)〜(5)、更には(6)の条件が検討される。色素の溶解性が悪いと成膜中での色素濃度が不足し、必要とする感度が得られず、解像性の良い画像記録を行うことができない。また色素を加熱溶解させて使用しようとすると作業性が悪くなるばかりか、室温保存時に溶液や膜中に色素の結晶が析出して、製品組成物として使用できない。色素の溶解性は色素分子間や色素と溶媒分子間の相互作用、色素分子とバインダーポリマーや多官能モノマー分子との相互作用に大きく影響されるものと考えられている。
【0005】
(2)と(3)については色素の吸収極大波長、分子吸光係数や吸収帯の形状などの吸収特性に大きく影響される。従って色素がどのような発色系をとるかが重要となる。(3)については組成物の分光感度測定により更に正確に知ることができる。(4)については感度Eは次式を用いて算出する。
【0006】
【数1】

Figure 0003554363
【0007】
ここでEは感度、Tnはステップタブレットn段目の透過率、tは露光時間、Iは露光強度を表す。Eはその値が小さい程高感度を表し、実用上1mJ/cm以下の感度が必要とされている。
【0008】
色素による分光増感は色素の励起状態から電子が開始剤分子へ移動し、この結果生成したラジカルがモノマーを攻撃し、光重合が起こるものと考えられている。この電子移動が起こるためには系の自由エネルギーΔGが負になる必要がある。
【0009】
【数2】
Figure 0003554363
【0010】
ここでEOXは色素の酸化電位、EREDは開始剤の還元電位、00 は色素の最低励起重項エネルギーを表す。色素の酸化電位は置換基の種類や色素の構造に大きく影響される。
【0011】
現在までに、フォトポリマー用増感色素としては、多くの種類のものが提案されている。例えば、特開昭54−151024号公報にはメロシアニン色素、特開昭58−29803号公報にはシアニン色素、特開昭59−56403号公報にはスチルベン誘導体、特開昭63−23901号公報特開昭64−48059号公報にはクマリン系色素、特開昭64−33104号公報にはメチレンブルー誘導体が記載されている。これらの公知色素の中に上述の要求特性を全て備えた色素を見いだすことは困難であるのが実状である。
【0012】
また、可視光フォトポリマー組成物は基本的にはバインダーポリマー、多官能モノマー、重合開始剤及び増感色素から構成され、色素以外の各成分には非常に多くの種類があり、製品組成物は用途や製品グレードに合わせて各種、各様の組み合わせで調され、使用に供される。従って目的とする特性を備えた組成物を調するには他の成分を固定して、これにふさわしい色素を選択使用する方法が採られるのが実状である。このような多種類の組み合わせからなる組成物に対応できる諸特性を備えた万能な色素は現在のところ見い出されておらず、色々な種類の有用な増感色素が必要とされ、その開発が要望されている。
【0013】
【発明が解決しようとする問題点】
フォトポリマー組成物を用いる可視レーザーによる画像記録の技術分野では、高速走査露光記録や低出力レーザー等の必要性から、諸特性を備え、実用性に優れた増感色素が要望されている。しかしながら、増感色素の分子構造と各成分との相互作用やこれに基づく諸特性については現状ではまだ十分解明されておらず、前記要求特性をすべて満足する増感色素を選択することは困難な作業であり、公知材料から類推、選択することは容易なことではない。本発明者らは鋭意検討した結果、ケトクマリン骨格の特定の位置に炭素鎖中に酸素原子を有するアルキルアミノ基を導入したケトクマリン誘導体がフォトポリマー用増感色素として実用性に優れた特性を有することを見い出し、本発明を完成したもので、本発明の目的は新規なケトクマリン誘導体及びかかる誘導体からなるフォトポリマー用増感色素を提供することにある。

第1表からも明らかなように、本発明にるケトクマリン誘導体はこの技術分野によく用いられるセロソルブ系の溶媒、具体的にはエチルセロソルブに対し実用上十分な高溶解性を示す。このため感光液は室温下攪拌することにより極めて容易に調することができるとともに、感光液の保存中にも、また成膜後のフィルムレジスト中にも色素結晶の析出は見られず、品質が安定に保たれる。一方、公知色素の溶解性は極めて低く、実用に供し得ない。感度について検討すると、本発明のケトクマリン誘導体は公知色素に比べてBTTBではやや高く、TCTではやや低い結果が得られているが、実用上必要とされる1mJ/cmよりその値は非常に小さく、従っていずれの開始剤に対しても高感度を示す。吸収特性については、本発明の誘導体は公知色素とほぼ同じ、良好な特性を示す。このようなことから、本発明によれば実用上必要な要求特性を兼備した新しいフォトポリマー用増感色素を提供することが可能となった。

[Industrial applications]
The present invention relates to novel ketocoumarin derivatives and sensitizing dyes for photopolymers comprising such derivatives.
[0002]
[Prior art]
A photopolymer composition is a material that shows a change in physical properties between a light-irradiated part and a non-irradiated part by sensing light energy, and is widely used for printing, micro-processing such as super LSI, printed circuit formation, UV curable paint and ink, and hologram recording. It has been put to practical use in the field, and its use is expanding more and more. This composition is basically composed of a photopolymerization initiator, a photopolymerizable compound and a binder polymer, and usually has sensitivity in the ultraviolet region, and is g-line or i-line of a mercury lamp or violet of a high-power argon laser. Images are recorded using an external oscillation line or the like.
[0003]
2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, technology for performing image recording using visible laser light instead of ultraviolet light has been actively developed. Usually, the above composition has no sensitivity to visible light, and the use of a sensitizing dye is an indispensable technical element in order to impart spectral sensitivity to recording light. The characteristics of such a sensitizing dye include (1) having excellent solubility in a solvent, (2) having a large absorption coefficient at the wavelength of the recording light, and (3) having a photosensitive wavelength that is similar to the wavelength of the recording light. It is required that they match, (4) high sensitivity, (5) good compatibility with other components, and (6) good storage stability.
[0004]
Among these required properties, (1) is the first condition for determining whether the dye can be used in this technique, and the following conditions (2) to (5) and further (6) are not satisfied until this condition is satisfied. Conditions are considered. If the solubility of the dye is poor, the dye concentration during the film formation becomes insufficient, the required sensitivity cannot be obtained, and image recording with good resolution cannot be performed. In addition, when the dye is heated and dissolved to be used, not only does the workability deteriorate, but also the dye crystals precipitate in a solution or film during storage at room temperature and cannot be used as a product composition. It is considered that the solubility of the dye is greatly influenced by the interaction between the dye molecules, the interaction between the dye and the solvent molecule, and the interaction between the dye molecule and the binder polymer or the polyfunctional monomer molecule.
[0005]
(2) and (3) are greatly affected by the absorption characteristics such as the absorption maximum wavelength of the dye, the molecular extinction coefficient and the shape of the absorption band. Therefore, it is important what kind of coloring system the dye takes. About (3), it can be known more accurately by measuring the spectral sensitivity of the composition. For (4), the sensitivity E is calculated using the following equation.
[0006]
(Equation 1)
Figure 0003554363
[0007]
Where E is the sensitivity, Tn step tablet n-th transmission, t is the exposure time, I 0 denotes the exposure intensity. The smaller the value of E, the higher the sensitivity, and practically a sensitivity of 1 mJ / cm 2 or less is required.
[0008]
It is believed that spectral sensitization by a dye causes one electron to move from the excited state of the dye to the initiator molecule, and the resulting radical attacks the monomer, causing photopolymerization. For this electron transfer to occur, the free energy ΔG of the system must be negative.
[0009]
(Equation 2)
Figure 0003554363
[0010]
Here E OX is the oxidation potential of the dye, the E RED represents a reduction potentials, 1 E 00 * is the lowest excited singlet energy of the dye of the initiator. The oxidation potential of a dye is greatly affected by the type of substituent and the structure of the dye.
[0011]
To date, many types of sensitizing dyes for photopolymers have been proposed. For example, JP-A-54-151024 discloses a merocyanine dye, JP-A-58-29803 discloses a cyanine dye, JP-A-59-56403 discloses a stilbene derivative, JP-A-63-23901, and JP-A-64-48059 describes coumarin dyes, and JP-A-64-33104 describes methylene blue derivatives. In fact, it is difficult to find a dye having all of the above-mentioned required characteristics among these known dyes.
[0012]
In addition, the visible light photopolymer composition is basically composed of a binder polymer, a polyfunctional monomer, a polymerization initiator and a sensitizing dye, and there are very many types of components other than the dye. various according to the application and product grades, are manufactured by adjusting a combination of all sorts, it is subjected to use. To made compositions with properties of interest tone is therefore secures the other components, it is actual situation of how to select using the appropriate dye thereto is employed. A universal dye having various properties capable of coping with such a composition composed of various types has not been found at present, and various kinds of useful sensitizing dyes are required. Have been.
[0013]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In the technical field of image recording with a visible laser using a photopolymer composition, there is a need for a sensitizing dye having various properties and excellent in practicality due to the necessity of high-speed scanning exposure recording and low-output laser. However, at present, the molecular structure of the sensitizing dye and the interaction between each component and various properties based on this have not yet been sufficiently elucidated, and it is difficult to select a sensitizing dye that satisfies all the above-mentioned required properties. It is an operation, and it is not easy to infer and select from known materials. The present inventors have conducted intensive studies and found that a ketocoumarin derivative having an alkylamino group having an oxygen atom in a carbon chain introduced at a specific position of a ketocoumarin skeleton has excellent practical properties as a sensitizing dye for a photopolymer. the finding, and completed the present invention, an object of the present invention is to provide a novel ketocoumarin derivatives and photopolymers sensitizing dye made of such derivatives.

The solubility in the table was calculated by a colorimetric method using a saturated solution obtained by mixing a dye and ethylcellosolve as a solvent, stirring the mixture at 20 ° C. for 3 hours, and filtering off the excess dye. In the formulation of the photosensitive solution, the blending amount of the known dye was 6.3 parts. That by the present invention dyes have been readily dissolved completely at room temperature, known dyes completely used since completely dissolved by heating so was to turbidity not dissolve. The meanings of the abbreviations and the structures of known dyes are as follows.

As is clear from Table 1, ketocoumarin derivatives that by the present invention exhibit good cellosolve solvents used, the practically sufficient high solubility in ethyl cellosolve specifically to the art. Together Therefore photosensitive solution can be very easily adjusted made by stirring at room temperature, even during storage of the photosensitive solution and precipitation of the dye crystals was not observed even in a film resist after the deposition, quality Is kept stable. On the other hand, the solubility of known dyes is extremely low and cannot be put to practical use. When the sensitivity is examined, the ketocoumarin derivative of the present invention has a slightly higher result in BTTB and a slightly lower result in TCT as compared with the known dyes, but the value is much smaller than 1 mJ / cm 2 required for practical use. Therefore, it shows high sensitivity to both initiators. As for the absorption characteristics, the derivatives of the present invention show almost the same good characteristics as known dyes. From the above, according to the present invention, it has become possible to provide a new sensitizing dye for a photopolymer having both required characteristics practically required.
