Definitions

  • the present invention relates 1 to non-diffusing colorforming components of the Z-phenyl benzimidazole class, having improved solubility characteristics and capable of yielding upon colorforming development yellow dyestuff images-of enhancedspectral characteristicsand exceedingly fine grain.
  • the yellow component generally employed is an openchain keto-methylene compound such as acetoacetanilide, benzoyl-acetoacetanilide, and the like.
  • an openchain keto-methylene compound such as acetoacetanilide, benzoyl-acetoacetanilide, and the like.
  • the dye images produced by such components are satisfactory although they leave something to be desired so far as spectral characteristics and grain are concerned.
  • Another disadvantage in the utilization of such components is their low solubility, and particularly'their loW solution stability.
  • Photographic emulsions containing yellow color formers of the aforestated type and the processing of such emulsions by color forming development with the formation of improved yellow dye images constitute the purposes and objects of the present invention.
  • R is a phenyl radical, a carbon'atom of which is directly linked to the carbon atom of the heterocyclic ring, 1. e-.-,-phenyl;*halogen phenyl, i. e., chlorophenyl, bromophenyl -and the like; alkyl phenyl, i. 6,, toluyl, ethylphenyl and the like; 'alkoxyphenyl, ii-e, 'methoxypnenyl',”emeryphenyl and the like, is the'radi'c'al 'NH.CZCH2.A,
