This invention relates to the production of colored photographic images by color develop- I meat.
It is known that a colored image may be formed simultaneously with the silver image obtained by developing a silver halide emulsion with an aromatic amino developing agent, if a substance known as a color former is present, for example, in the developing solution or in the silver halide emulsion. The colored image may be revealed by bleaching out the silver image with Farmer's reducer or other photographic bleaching agent.
The present invention has for an object the production of new color formers which are useful in color photography. A further object is the preparation of photographic emulsions which contain new and improved color formers which are substantially water insoluble and which yield dyes by coupling with the oxidation products of aromatic amino developing agents. A further I object is the provision 01 new photographic developing processes. A still further object is the preparation of photographic elements bearing an emulsion which contains one or more of the new color formers, which do not migrate; another object is the preparation of multi-layer photographic films containing color formers which do not migrate from layer to layer or into the processing baths. Yet another object is the preparation of finished photographs which contain stable dyed images which are formed of water-insoluble dyes. Other objects include the preparation of color photographs and color forming emulsions upon opaque or transparent supports. Still other objects will appear hereinafter. The present invention is concerned with new color formers which are chemical compounds containing pyrazolone nuclei. The most common color-former of this type is 1-phenyl-3-methyl- S-pyrazolone which yields a magenta image on development. However, this compound is not very satisfactory in regard to the shade of the magenta image and it is a further and most important object of this invention to provide a new range of pyrazolone color formers which yield magenta images of more satisfactory shade and which are accordingly of especial value in subtractive processes of three-color photography.
The above and other objects are accomplished by the preparation and use in photographic processes and emulsions of color formers which are esters, amides and substituted amides of the general formula:
(I) HzCC-'(CH2)r-COY o=c N i R I where R1 is a hydrogen atom, a hydrocarbon group or a heterocyclic group, Y is a OR2 group or an group, where R2 is a. hydrocarbon group and Ra and R4 are the same or different and are hydrogen atoms or hydrocarbon groups, and n is a small positive integer, e. g. l, 2 or 8, but is er'ably 1.
As indicated above, the groups R1, R2, R3 and R4 in the general Formula I may be the same or different hydrocarbon groups. be alkyl groups (e. g. methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl or higher alkyl groups) aryl groups (e. g. phenyl or naphthyl groups), or aralkyl groups (e. g. benzyl groups). Such groups may themselves be substituted for example, aryl groups may be substituted with hydroxy, alkoxy, oxyalkyl, amino or nitro groups or with halogen atoms. The groups R: and R4 may together constitute the residue of a cyclic nucleus, e. g. a carbocyclic nucleus such as a cycloaliphatic or aromatic nucleus or a heterocyclic nucleus. Also, as indicated above, R1 may be a heterocyclic group. Suitable heterocyclic nuclei for R1, R3 and R4 are, for example, pyridine, quinoline, thiazole, benzthiazole, naphthathiazole, oxazole, benzoxazole, selenazole, pyrimidine, quinazoline, thiophene, coumarane and other heterocyclic nuclei. Suitable cycloaliphatic nuclei include cyclohexyl and methylcyclohexyl nuclei. Color formers of the amide type wherein one of R: and R4 is a polynuclear residue, e. g. a diphenyl residue or naphthalene residue, have the advantage that the presence of such groups improves the substantivity of the color formers and makes them less liable to difiuse out of emulsion layers. Moreover, the presence of such polynuclear groups tends to change the shade of the final dye image,- generally making it more blue.
The color formers oi the type wherein Y in the above general Formula I is an .-ORz group, may be prepared by condensing an ester of th general Formula II (where R2 and n have the significance given them above and R5 is a hydrocarbon group, which may be of the same type or of a difierent type from R2) with hydrazine or a mono-substituted hydrazine. Examples of suitable esters of the above Formula 11 are the di-esters ofacetone dicarboxylic acid, p-ketoadipic acid, B-ketopimelic acid and homologous compounds containing higher numbers of carbon atoms. In the preferred embodiment of the invention, 11 is 1 and the esters of acetone dicarboxylic acid are the preferred reactants. Examples of suitable subpref- Thus' they may stituted 'hydrazines are methyl hydrazine, ethyl hydrazine, phenyl hydrazine, substituted phenyl hydrazines, naphthyl hydrazines, substituted naphthylhydrazines' and heterocyclic hydrazines, e. g. quinolyl and benzthiazolyl hydrazines. Color formers of the type in which Y is an R4 group may be prepared by reacting a compound of the above general Formula I where Y is -OR2 with ammonia or an amine of the formula Examples are monoor di-alkylamines, e. g. ethylamine, diethylamine and higher homologues, monoand di-arylamines, e. g. aniline, diphenylamine and naphthylamines, mono and di-aralkylamines, e. g. benzylamine, alkyl arylamines, e. g. N-ethylaniline, alkyl aralkyl amines, e. g. N- ethyl benzylamine, aralkyl arylamines, e. g. benzyl aniline, heterocyclic amines, e. g. pyridine, piperidine, quinoline, thiazoles, oxazoles, pyrimidines, quinazolines and the like and diamines, e. g. oand p-phenylene-diamine, benzidine, di-
anisidine, diamino stilbenes and dinaphthyla mines. Aryl nuclei present in the amines may themselves be substituted, e. g. byalkyl, nitro;
halogen, alkoxy, or oxyalkyl groups. Where the amine employed is a diamine, reaction ma take place at both amino groups so that the final product contains two pyrazolone nuclei. Also, where the diamine is unsymmetrically substituted, unsymmetrical products may be obtained.
The new color formers may be incorporated in amino developing solutions or in photographic silver halide emulsions. The aromatic amino developing agents are the most readily available color developing agents and of these the diamino aryl compounds such as p-phenylene diamine ployed there may be mentioned the following: I
p-phenylene diamine, mono ethyl-p-phenylene diamine, di ethyl-ortho-phenylene diamine, chloro-p-phenylene diamine, amino-p-phenylene diamine, 1.2.5-toluene diamine, 2-amino-5-diethylamine toluene, p-amino phenylene piperidine, methyl-oxyethyl-p-phenylene diamine, ethyl-oxyethyl-p-phenylene diamine, butyl-oxyethyl-p-phenylene diamine, 2-amino-5-oxyethyll-butylaminotoluene and its dihydrochloride, 8- di-oxypropyl-p-phenylene diamine, 4 4'-diaminodiphenylamine and a-amino-aceto-acetic acid ethyl ester. These compounds are preferably used in the form of their salts either of organic or inorganic type, since the salts are more soluble and stable than the free bases. The hydrochlorides, sulphates and acetates are examples of suitable salts.
By way of example a suitable developing solution (referred to for convenience in the Subsequent examples as Developing solution A") con-' taining a color-former in accordance with the present invention may be made up as follows:

The mixture was then allowed to stand overnight, when the clear solution became opaque and water separated out. The solution was then warmed on a water bath until it turned red and again became clear. The solution was then steam-distilled to remove unchanged phenyl hydrazine.

' assaaes Exsurrr 20 This example illustrates the incorporation of the color-formers of this invention in emulsion layers. 20 cos. of a 1% solution in ethylene glycol monomethyl ether of one of the products of Examples 1 to 19 were added to 25 cos. of a aqueous solution of gelatin and the mixture added to 50 cos. of a melted photographic tity of the water-miscible liquid such as ethylene glycol monomethylether. Magenta images of various shades were produced together with the silver image in each case.
The process of development employing the color-formers in accordance with the present invention may be applied to a latent image in an emulsion of silver halide (including simple and. mixed emulsions, e. g. silver chloride-bromide, chlorobromide and iodobromide emulsions) which has been exposed to the action of light, for example, in a camera or behind a photographic negative image. The process may also be applied to a silver salt image which has been obtained by dissolving away an initial reduced silver image and exposing to light the residual unaltered silver salt, for example in the reversal processof development. The process may also be applied to a. developable silver salt image obtained by removing the unaltered silver halide by means of solvents from a developed photographic image in metallic silver and then converting the metallic silver to a developable silver salt by means of known photographic bleaching agents. The process may also be applied to the development of silver halide photographic emulsions which have been rendered developable by means other than exposure to light, for example, by chemical means.
As a modification, the production of colored images by means of the color-formers of this invention may be applied to colloid layers sensitised by bi-chromate. Thus the color-formers may be incorporated in bichromate-sensitised colloid layers (e. g. gelatin, gum arabic or albumin), the layers exposed, the unexposed colloid removed, for example by treatment with hot water, and the color developed in the exposed portions by treatment with p-nitroso-diallqrl-aniline or its derivatives.
The color formers and elements containing themaccording to this invention are not restricted in their use to the processes or color development referred to above. Thus they may be treated with diazo compounds to form azo dyes which may then be differentially bleached to form dyed images.
The new color formers of this invention possess many advantages. As indicated above they do not migrate from one emulsion layer to another and they do not tend to difiuse from the emulsion layers during processing treatments. Moreover, the new color formers are strongly resistant to the bleaching action of the sulphite commonly contained in photographic developing solutions; that is, they yield dye images of satisfactory depth even though sulphite is present in the developer employed. Moreover, the dye images produced are very stable and many of the dyestufisyield dye images which are substantially pure magentas and therefore of especial value in three color subtractive processes of color photography.
