Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material. In particular, the present invention relates to a silver halide color photographic material containing a compound that releases a diffusible development inhibitor or development inhibitor precursor.

[Conventional technology]

BACKGROUND ART Conventionally, color reproducibility has been improved by incorporating a compound that releases a diffusible development inhibitor or development inhibitor precursor into a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material.

Color photographic materials have high color purity even though they are colored.
Good color reproducibility is required, but this color reproducibility is still not sufficient despite the remarkable improvement in image quality of silver halide color photographic materials in recent years. In particular, there are many deficiencies in the reproduction of color saturation (chroma). The causes of deterioration in color reproducibility include poor spectral characteristics of the coloring dye obtained from the coupler used, that is, insufficient absorption in a specific wavelength range, or unnecessary absorption in other wavelength ranges; In addition, color mixing occurs due to the movement of spectral sensitizing dyes, and color mixing occurs due to oxidized forms of color developing agents.For example, when one color-sensitive layer forms a dye image, the oxidized forms of color developing agents generated therein cause color mixing. It is possible that the colored layer develops color and the color becomes cloudy.

In order to prevent the above-mentioned color mixing, etc., an isolation layer (IL), also called an intermediate layer, is installed between different color-sensitive layers, and the isolation layer (IL)
Adding a scavenger for the oxidized product of a color developing agent or a non-coloring coupler, or adding a diffusion preventive agent such as a sensitizing dye to the isolation layer (IL), such as fine silver halide particles, a cationic hydrophilic synthetic polymer, or a polymer. Techniques such as adding latex etc. or automatic masking using colored couplers are known, and these are commonly used in negative silver halide color photographic materials, but none of the above methods can improve color reproducibility. I have not reached the point where I am fully satisfied.

In light of the above-mentioned background, attempts have been made to improve color reproducibility by incorporating a diffusive compound that releases the development inhibitor or its precursor. Compounds that release development inhibitors and development inhibitor precursors are generally DI
Although it is called an R compound, by using a DIR compound in which the development inhibitor or its precursor released from the compound is diffusible, the development inhibitor or the precursor of the development inhibitor can be released into other layers. Attempts have been made to diffuse and suppress the development of other layers, that is, to bring about an interlayer effect (hereinafter abbreviated as IIE) to improve color reproducibility. These D
Various IR compounds are used. For example, a so-called DIR coupler reacts with an oxidized form of a color developing agent to form a coloring dye and releases a development inhibitor during development; So-called DIR that does not form coloring pigments
Substances that directly release a development inhibitor by reacting with an oxidized product of a color developing agent and those that release a development inhibitor indirectly, such as JP-A-54-145135 and JP-A-54-145135;

Examples include those described in No. 10440 and No. 60-7429 (hereinafter referred to as timing DIR compounds). In this specification, what represents the above DIR effect is D
Collectively called IR compounds.

When these DIR compounds are used in a silver halide color light-sensitive material, a development inhibitor is released from the DIR compound during development, and the effect of suppressing the development of other silver halide emulsion layers, that is, the above-mentioned 11E effect cannot be obtained. can. In particular, DIR compounds capable of releasing so-called diffusible inhibitory groups or diffusible development inhibitor precursors are considered to be effective and have been used in recent silver halide color films with some degree of effectiveness. However, it has been found that the method using the DIR compound described above may cause a hue shift in the reproduced color.

That is, as described above, the IIE effect using the diffusive DIR compound improves the chromaticity of the reproduced pure colors of blue, green, and red, but the occurrence of hue shift is observed.

In particular, according to the studies of the present inventors, the hue shift of green toward cyan is remarkable. Since the visibility of the human eye is high for green light, the hue shift in green is particularly worrisome, and this needs to be corrected.

In order to solve the hue shift of green toward cyan, it is possible to reduce the IIE effect that the cyan coloring red-sensitive layer receives, but for this purpose, for example, the type of DIR compound contained in the magenta coloring green-sensitive layer If you change the amount or
Desensitization of the layer containing IR becomes large, or the ITE effect received by the yellow-colored blue-sensitive layer becomes small and becomes insufficient. On the other hand, by inserting a development inhibitor trapping agent such as fine grain silver halide between the magenta coloring green-sensitive layer and the cyan coloring red-sensitive layer, the IIB effect on the cyan coloring red-sensitive layer can be reduced; , I received by the magenta coloring green sensitive layer
IF also becomes smaller.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

As mentioned above, conventional silver halide color photographic light-sensitive materials using DIR compounds have excellent reproducibility of pure colors, but have the problem that hue shifts occur, particularly in green hues. .

The present invention is intended to solve such problems, and the purpose of the present invention is to improve color reproducibility, particularly to improve the saturation of pure colors, and to provide a silver halide color that does not cause green hue shift. Our objective is to provide photographic materials.

[Means for solving problems]

The above problem arises in a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material having a yellow-coloring silver halide emulsion layer, a magenta-coloring silver halide emulsion layer, and a cyan-coloring silver halide emulsion layer. The problem is solved by the present invention, which is characterized in that it contains a compound that releases an inhibitor, and that the photosensitive material develops a cyan color when developed after being exposed to green light.

The present invention is based on the following findings obtained by the present inventors: In terms of color reproduction, the IIE effect of the yellow coloring blue-sensitive layer received from the magenta coloring green-sensitive layer is increased, and the cyan coloring received from the magenta coloring green-sensitive layer is increased. This is based on the knowledge that a preferable IIE balance can be achieved by making the IIE effect of the coloring red-sensitive layer relatively small and by increasing the IIE effect of the magenta coloring green-sensitive layer received from the cyan coloring red-sensitive layer. However, it has been found that if only this method is used, as described above (although the color saturation of the pure dye is significantly improved, a hue shift from green to cyan occurs).

As a result of extensive research, the present inventors have surprisingly found that in order to eliminate the above-mentioned hue shift, it is preferable that the photosensitive material develops a cyan color when exposed to green light.

According to this configuration of the present invention, it is possible to avoid the undesirable situation of hue shift of green toward cyan, and to obtain the effect of good color reproducibility of pure colors.

As a means for causing cyan coloring to occur with green exposure, (1) The spectral sensitivity of the cyan coloring red-sensitive layer is shortened.

■ Add a cyan coloring coupler to the magenta coloring green sensitive layer.

■ Allows the oxidized form of the developing agent to diffuse into the magenta coloring green sensitive layer.

■ Adding a diffusive development accelerator-releasing coupler to the magenta-forming green-sensitive layer.

etc. Among these, preferable means are (1) and (2), and particularly preferable means is (2).

Although the above description mainly assumes the case where the present invention is applied to color negative film, the present invention is not limited to application only to negative film.

However, when applied to color negative film for photography,
This is one of the preferred embodiments of the present invention.

Next, the diffusible DIR compound used in the present invention will be described.

As used herein, "diffusivity" refers to the ability of the compound to act on layers other than the layer in which it is contained, that is, to have an interlayer effect, and can also be referred to as synergistic effect.

The diffusivity of the diffusible DIR compound used in the present invention is 0.3
It is preferably 4 or more, more preferably 0.4 or more. Here, the degree of diffusivity is expressed by the interaction property evaluated by the following method.

Photosensitive material samples A and B consisting of a layer having the following composition on a support
It was created.

Sample (A): A sample having a green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer Spectrally sensitized to green-sensitivity silver iodobromide (silver iodide 6 mol %, average grain size 0.48 μIn) and a coupler (exemplified as magenta coupler below) M-2) per mole of silver, 0.07
Coating a gelatin coating solution containing mole vA amount 1.1g/
m, applied so that the amount of gelatin applied was 3.0 g/rri, and on top of that a protective layer; silver iodobromide (silver iodide 2 mol%, average grain size 0.08μm
) with a coating silver amount of 0.1 g/n.
1. The coating was applied so that the amount of gelatin applied was 0.8 g/m.

Sample (B) 2 The protective layer of sample (A) above except that silver iodobromide was removed.

In addition to the above, each layer contains a gelatin hardening agent and a surfactant.

Samples (A) and (B) were exposed to white light using a wedge and then processed according to the processing method of Example 1 described later, except that the development time was 2 minutes and 40 seconds. The sensitivity of sample (B) was set to 6 in the developer.
0% (in logarithmic representation, -log E=0.22) to which various development inhibitors were added and those to which no development inhibitor was added were used.

The sensitivity of sample (A) when no development inhibitor is added is So,
The sensitivity of sample (B) is SO', the sensitivity of sample (A) when a development inhibitor is added is SA, and the sensitivity of sample (B) is 38
Then, Sensitivity of sample (A) is 1, A3 o = So' S R% Sensitivity of sample (B) is Δ5 = So SA1 T.

From the above, distant action can be expressed as follows.

In other words, the long-acting property is expressed as ΔS/ΔSo. In this specification, the degree of diffusivity is expressed in terms of this long-distance effect.

However, all sensitivities were set as the logarithm (-1ogE) of the reciprocal of the exposure amount at the density point of fog density 10.3.

Hereinafter, the DIR compound of the present invention will be explained in more detail.

Normally, when a DIR compound is used in the color-sensitive layer, the development-suppressing effect released is suppressed most by the additive layer itself, which is the release layer, even if the precursor is diffusive, resulting in a decrease in concentration and sensitivity. It is difficult to use large amounts of DIR compounds.

When a DIR compound is used in another layer, that layer experiences a development inhibitory force of the magnitude described above due to the development inhibitor of the DIR compound in its own layer. Therefore, a phenomenon occurs in which the development inhibitory effect supplied from other layers is not sufficiently exerted. That is, when attempting to generate IIE in both directions between two color-sensitive layers, either both IIEs will be of a low level, or only one direction will be strong.
The other direction becomes extremely weak.

However, research conducted by the present inventors revealed that the released development inhibitor exhibits different development inhibitory powers in different color-sensitive layers, and that the development inhibitory power varies depending on the type of development inhibitor. became.

For example, when development inhibitor A and development inhibitor B are used in approximately equal moles in a green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer and a red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, the development of the green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer If the inhibitory power is A>B, but the development inhibitory power in the red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer is A<B, then the DIR compound having the development inhibitor B in the green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer is added to the red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer. By adding a DIR compound having a development inhibitor A to the silver emulsion layer, the white layer suppressing property of each additive layer is kept weak, and the other color-sensitive layers are not significantly affected (
It becomes possible to give a large IIE), and the IIE in both directions
It has become possible to dramatically increase the size of IE.

The method of using the IR compound, that is, the method or criteria for determining the color-sensitive layer to which the DIR compound should be added, is based on the above example,
That is, it is effective not only between a green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer and a red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, but also between other types of different color-sensitive layers. That is, for example, when development inhibitor C and development inhibitor R are used in equimolar amounts in a blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer and a green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, the development of the blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer The suppressive power is C
OD, but when the development suppressing power in the green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer is C<D, use a DIR compound having D in the blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer and a DIR compound having C in the green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer. By adding a compound, it is possible to keep the white layer suppressing property of each additive layer in a weak state and have a large influence (large IIE) on other color-sensitive layers, and it is possible to suppress IIE in both directions. It became possible to make it dramatically larger.

For example, when development inhibitor E and development inhibitor F are used in equimolar amounts in a blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer and a red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, the development of the blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer is When the inhibitory power is B<F, but the development inhibitory power in the red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer is E>F, the DIR compound having E is added to the blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, and the DIR compound having E is added to the red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer. By adding a DIR compound having F to the layer, it is possible to keep the white layer suppression in each additive layer weak and to have a large influence (large IIE) on other color-sensitive layers. , it has become possible to dramatically increase the IIE in both directions.

Note that, not only when the development inhibitors are used in equimolar amounts as described above, but if the above relationship can be shown by increasing or decreasing the usage amount of each development inhibitor, IIE in both directions can be increased in the same way. It is possible.

For example, using development inhibitor G and development inhibitor H, the inhibitory effect on the green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer is G>> in equimolar amounts of each.
H, and the suppression property in the red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer is G>
In case H, by reducing the amount of development inhibitor G added (expressed as development inhibitor G'), G'>H1 in the green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer and G'>H1 in the red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer. G
'<F (If the relationship holds true, a DIR compound with H is added to the green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, and a DIR compound with G is added to the green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer.
By adding the compound to the red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer in a lower amount than the former, a large interimage effect (IIE interlayer effect) could be obtained in both directions. The same was true for other types of color-sensitive layers.

Then, if the combination of the DIR compound having each inhibitory group and its additive layer is reversed (for example, in the above specific example, DIR having the development inhibitor A in the green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer)
When an IR compound was added to the red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer (a DIR compound having a development inhibitor B was added to the red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer), the effect of suppressing the white layer was very strong, and the TIE in both directions was significantly reduced.

In the present invention, the use of DIR compounds, i.e., the DIR
Selection of the inhibitory group of a compound can be performed by the following method.

Three types of photosensitive materials having layers having the following compositions are prepared on a (transparent) support.

Sample (I): A sample having a red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer Spectrally sensitized to red-sensitivity silver iodobromide (silver iodide 6 mol %, average grain size 0.48 μm) and coupler (exampled as cyan coupler below) A gelatin coating solution containing 0.08 mol of C-7) per mol of silver was applied so that the amount of coated silver was 1.4 g/M.

Sample (■): A sample having a green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer Spectrally sensitized to green-sensitivity silver iodobromide (silver iodide 6 mol%, average grain size 0.48 μm) and exemplary coupler (M-2 below) A gelatin coating solution containing 0.07 mole of per mole of silver was coated so that the amount of coated silver was 1.1 g/ffl.

Sample (■): Sample having a blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer Spectrally sensitized to blue-sensitivity silver iodobromide (silver iodide 6 mol%, average grain size 0.48 μm) and exemplary coupler, (Y-4) A gelatin coating solution containing 0.34 mol of silver per 1 mol of silver was coated so that the amount of silver coated was 0.5 g/mr.

In addition to the above, each layer contains a gelatin hardening agent and a surfactant.

After exposing the obtained samples (1) to (II[) to white light using a wedge, the development time was 1 minute 45 seconds for (1) and (I
Processing was performed in accordance with the processing method of Example 1 described later, except that I) was set to 2 minutes and 40 seconds, and (III) was set to 3 minutes and 15 seconds.

Various development inhibitors were added in different amounts to the developer so that the development inhibitory power was almost the same as in sample (n);
The one without additives was used. Sensitivity "1 (So) of each sample (I) to (III) treated with a developer without the addition of a development inhibitor

92) Similarly to *1) above, the logarithm of the reciprocal of the exposure amount (E) at the density point of fog density +0.3, that is, -1ogE, is calculated as the sensitivity S.
shall be.

Table 1 below shows the differences in the development inhibitory power of several types of development inhibitors for each color-sensitive layer based on the above standard experiment.

It is sufficient to use a combination in which the layer itself has a small development inhibition and the other layer has a large development inhibition.

In order to create a preferable combination between a red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer and a blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer due to the difference in the development suppressing power of each development inhibitor exemplified in Table 1, for example, red-sensitive silver halide It can be obtained by normalizing the value of the emulsion layer (sample ([)) to the value of one compound and dividing the value of the blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer (sample (■)) by the ratio at that time ( (See Table 2).

Similarly, between the green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer and the blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, and between the red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer and the blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, preferred combinations in which the added layer suppression is small and the other layer suppression is large are found. You can choose.

Further, in order to emphasize IIE, it is preferable that the action distance of the inhibitory group is large. That is, it is preferable that the so-called synergistic effect is large.

In the present invention, the interactivity of the inhibitory group can be evaluated by the method described in the explanation of the degree of diffusivity above.

Table 3 illustrates the long-acting properties of several types of development inhibitors, using the values determined by the above method as a measure of long-acting properties.

Since IIE is also small when the margin distance action is relatively small (A-5: 0.34 or less), it is preferable that the distance action exceeds 0.34. As mentioned above, in the present invention, it is more preferable that the long-distance action is 0.4 or more.
