Definitions
- dyes of the cyanine dye series are known to extend the sensitivity of photographic silver halide emulsions.
- Dyes which have been found useful for this urpose include those which contain a quinoline nucleus. Such dyes have been long known, although they have not been particularly eflicacious for such purposes as sensitizers for photographic emulsions. While dyes of the above mentioned type are classed as weak sensitizers, I have now found a new class of dyes,
- a further object is to provide photographic silver halide emulsions sensitized with such dyes.
- a still further object is to provide a process for preparing photographic silver halide emulsions containing these new dyes.
- Thenew dyes of the cyanine series of my invention can be represented by the following general formula:

- the styryl dyes thus obtained have been found to be particularly useful in the preparation of filter layers, overcoating layers, and the like in photographic elements.
- the reaction mixture was cooled and extracted twice with ether. The residue was dissolved in ethyl alcohol and treated with an aqueous solution of sodium iodide. After cooling, the crystals were filtered off and-washed with ethyl alcohol. After two recrystallizations from methyl alcohol (100 cc./ gram) the yieldwas 17% of the theoretical. The reddish-brown crystals melted at 278-280 C. dec.
