Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material excellent in color reproducibility, and particularly to a combination of a pyrrolotriazole coupler and a non-color-forming, colorless compound having a diffusion-resistant group. Accordingly, the present invention relates to a silver halide color photographic material having further improved color reproducibility.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A color photographic light-sensitive material is exposed to light and then subjected to color development, whereby an oxidized aromatic primary amine developer reacts with a coupler to form an image. In this system, a color reproduction method based on a subtractive color method is used, and in order to reproduce blue, green and red, color images of yellow, magenta and cyan, which have complementary colors, respectively, are formed. Of these, phenol or naphthol couplers are generally used to form cyan images. However, dyes formed from these couplers have undesirable absorption in the green light absorption region. For this reason, there is a problem that the color reproducibility of the photosensitive material is remarkably reduced, and it has been desired to solve this problem.

As means for solving this problem, use of a heterocyclic compound as a coupler has been proposed in US Pat. Nos. 4,728,598 and 4,873,183, European Patent 249453A2, and the like. However, these couplers had fatal problems such as low coupling activity. Pyrroloazoles described in European Patent No. 493197 A1 have been proposed as couplers which have overcome these problems. These couplers have been greatly improved in terms of coupling activity and hue over conventional couplers, but further improvements have been desired.

On the other hand, in addition to attempts to overcome the above problems by studying the coupler structure, methods for solving the problems by using additives have been studied. For example, US Pat. No. 5,474,880 describes a technique for adjusting hue by adding an amide compound or phenol, JP-A-7-270990 describes a technique for improving color development by adding a hydrogen-bonding hydrogen donor compound, and JP-A-6-258802. Examples of such techniques include an improvement in color reproducibility and an improvement in color development by the addition of ureas described in the above or a specific carboxylic acid described in JP-A-6-3782. However, at present, the above-mentioned problems have not been sufficiently solved even by these additive technologies, and research for further exploring and designing the optimal combination of the structure of both the additive and the pyrroloazole coupler has been continued. Was. In particular, further development of the technology was necessary in order to fully exploit the characteristics of the dye having an excellent hue formed from this type of coupler in the light-sensitive material.

[0005] German Patent 19507418 A1 discloses a patent for carbonamides as coupler solvents. However, in addition to the purpose of use different from the technique described in the patent, addition of the carboxamides disclosed in the patent was insufficient for the color reproducibility of the pyrrolotriazole coupler. The present inventors have conducted various studies on carbonamides, and as a result, have found that aryl-substituted carbonamides, in particular, carbonamides having an ether bond at the ortho position, exhibit a particularly remarkable effect.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made for the purpose of further improving the color reproducibility of a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material.

The light-sensitive material of the present invention is suitable for a scanning exposure method using a cathode ray (CRT) in addition to being used for a printing system using a normal negative printer. A cathode ray tube exposure apparatus is simpler, more compact, and lower in cost than an apparatus using a laser. Further, adjustment of the optical axis and color is also easy. Various light emitters that emit light in a spectral region are used as necessary for a cathode ray tube used for image exposure. For example, any one of a red light emitter, a green light emitter, and a blue light emitter, or a mixture of two or more thereof is used. The spectral region is not limited to the above red, green, and blue, and a phosphor that emits light in a yellow, orange, purple, or infrared region is also used. In particular, a cathode ray tube which emits white light by mixing these light emitters is often used.

When the photosensitive material has a plurality of photosensitive layers having different spectral sensitivity distributions and the cathode ray tube also has a phosphor which emits light in a plurality of spectral regions, a plurality of colors are exposed at a time, that is, the cathode ray tube is exposed. The image signals of a plurality of colors may be input to the display unit to emit light from the display screen. A method of sequentially inputting image signals for each color, sequentially emitting light of each color, and exposing through a film that cuts a color other than that color (plane sequential exposure)
In general, plane-sequential exposure is preferable for high image quality because a cathode ray tube with high resolution can be used.

The photosensitive material of the present invention is a second harmonic generation light source (SHG) in which a gas laser, a light emitting diode, a semiconductor laser, a semiconductor laser or a solid laser using a semiconductor laser as an excitation light source is combined with a nonlinear optical crystal.
And the like, and is preferably used for a digital scanning exposure method using monochromatic high density light. In order to make the system compact and inexpensive, it is preferable to use a semiconductor laser, or a second harmonic generation light source (SHG) in which a semiconductor laser or a solid-state laser is combined with a nonlinear optical crystal. Particularly, in order to design an apparatus that is compact, inexpensive, and has a long life and high stability, it is preferable to use a semiconductor laser, and it is preferable to use a semiconductor laser as at least one of the exposure light sources.

When such a scanning exposure light source is used,
The spectral sensitivity maximum wavelength of the light-sensitive material of the present invention can be arbitrarily set according to the wavelength of the scanning exposure light source used.
In a solid-state laser using a semiconductor laser as an excitation light source or an SHG light source obtained by combining a semiconductor laser and a nonlinear optical crystal, the laser oscillation wavelength can be halved, so that blue light and green light can be obtained. Therefore, the spectral sensitivity maximum of the photosensitive material can be provided in the usual three wavelength ranges of blue, green and red. If the exposure time in such scanning exposure is defined as the exposure time for the pixel size when the pixel density is 400 dpi, the preferred exposure time is 10 ^-4 seconds or less, more preferably 10 ^-6 seconds or less.

Preferred scanning exposure methods applicable to the present invention are described in detail in the patents listed in the above table. Further, for processing the light-sensitive material of the present invention, the lower right column of page 26, lower right column of page 26 to the upper right column of page 34 of JP-A-2-207250, and the upper left column of page 5 of JP-A-4-97355 can be used. The processing materials and processing methods described in line 17 to page 20, lower right column, line 20 can be preferably applied. As the preservative used in this developer, the compounds described in the patents listed in the above table are preferably used.

The method of developing the photosensitive material of the present invention after exposure is as follows: a conventional method of developing with a developer containing an alkali agent and a developing agent, an alkaline solution containing a developing agent in the photosensitive material and containing no developing agent, etc. In addition to a wet method such as a method of developing with an activator solution, a thermal developing method without using a processing solution can be used. In particular, since the activator method does not contain a developing agent in the processing liquid, it is easy to manage and handle the processing liquid, and is a preferable method from the viewpoint of environmental protection because it has a small load when processing the waste liquid. In the activator method, examples of the developing agent or its precursor incorporated in the photosensitive material include, for example, Japanese Patent Application No. 7-6357.
No. 2, 7-334190, 7-334192,
The hydrazine-type compounds described in JP-A-7-334197 and JP-A-7-344396 are preferred.

Further, a development method in which the amount of silver applied to the light-sensitive material is reduced and image amplification processing (intensification processing) using hydrogen peroxide is preferably used. In particular, it is preferable to use this method for the activator method. Specifically, Japanese Patent Application Hei 7
Image forming methods using an activator solution containing hydrogen peroxide described in JP-A-63587 and JP-A-7-334202 are preferably used. In the activator method,
Desilvering is usually performed after processing with an activator solution.However, in an image amplification processing method using a low silver content photosensitive material, desilvering processing can be omitted and a simple method such as washing or stabilizing processing can be performed. it can. Further, in a method in which image information is read from a photosensitive material by a scanner or the like, a processing mode that does not require desilvering processing can be adopted even when a photosensitive material having a high silver content such as a photosensitive material for photography is used.

As the activator solution, desilvering solution (bleaching / fixing solution), washing and stabilizing solution used in the present invention, known processing materials and processing methods can be used. Preferably, Research Disclosure Item 36544
