Definitions
- This invention relates to a merocyanine dye-sensitized photographic element comprising at least one silver halide emulsion layer uniformly dyed with an azo-dye for use in the silver dye bleach process.
- Colored photographic images can be prepared by the silver dye bleach process in which a negative or a positive silver image is obtained, depending on the processing, by exposure and subsequent development of uniformly colored photographic layers.
- the azo-dye is bleached, generally in a strongly acidic bleach bath, in accordance with the silver image.
- dye image of the original is obtained.
- the dye image has a gradation opposite to the gradation of the silver image.
- the dyes generally employed are azo dyes, both water-soluble dyes and insoluble pigments.
- One of the great disadvantages of the silver dye bleach process is that the sensitivity of the dyed photographic layers is very considerably reduced. This occurs in particular if the layers are sensitized in such a way, as is generally the case, that the blue-sensitive layer is dyed yellow, the green-sensitive layer magenta and the red-sensitive layer cyan. The reason for this is that the sensitization maxima coincide with the absorption maxima of the dyes. With respect to the sensitivity of the light-sensitive layers, the silver dye bleach process is inferior to other color photographic processes. Accordingly, one of the great difiiculties of the silver dye bleach process is the preparation of sufficiently sensitive layers. 4
- sensitizers which are to be used in materials for the silver dye bleach process have to satisfy several requirements. In addition to good sensitizing properties the sensitizer must not deleteriously effect the stability of the emulsions, particularly in storage and under tropical conditions. Furthermore the sensitizing dyes have to be sufliciently soluble in the processing baths, so that the dye is readily washed out and no coloring of the support, for example paper,- or the binding agent of the layer, for example gelatin, occurs.
- the sensitizer must adhere sufficiently firmly to the silver halide grains as not to be displaced by the azo-dyes, because otherwi-se the sensitizing action is decreased in the presence of vazo-dyes.
- sensitizing dyes for silver halide emulsion layers to be used in the silver dye bleach process.
- Another object is to provide photographic materials comprising at least one lightsensitive silver halide emulsion layer optically sensitized and containing an azo-dye.
- merocyanine dyes are outstanding in their optically sensitizing properties for silver halide emulsion layers which contain uniformly distributed azo-dyes and which are to be used in the silver dye bleach process.
- the merocyanines of the present invention are characterized by two 5- or 6-membered heterocyclic rings which contain nitrogen as a ring member and which are linked together by way of 2 or 4 methine groups.
- Merocyanines of this type are generally known as zero-, dior tetramethine merocyanines.
- X represents the ring members necessary to complete a 5- or 6-membered heterocyclic ring, preferably of the following groups: thiazole, benzthiazole, napthothiazole, oxazole, benzoxazole, naphthoxazole, selenazole, benzselenazole, naphthoselenazole, benzirnidazole, indoline, pyrrolidine, tetrazole, thiodiazole;
- Y hydrogen or alkyl preferably lower alkyl having up to 3 carbon atoms, such as methyl or ethyl;
- Z the ring members necessary for completing a S-membered heterocyclic ring preferably such as thiazole oxazole, selenazole, imidazole or pyrazole;
- R alkyl preferably lower alkyl having up to 5 carbon atoms in particular methyl or ethyl, whereby the alkyl groups can be substituted by carboxy, sulfo, hydroxy or chlorine;
- R' alkyl preferably alkyl up to 5 carbon atoms such as methyl or ethyl, olefinically unsaturated alkyl, preferably up to 5 carbon atoms such as allyl, cyeloalkyl such as cyclohexyl, or aryl preferably phenyl;
- n 0 or 1.
- heterocyclic or aromatic rings can be substituted, for example, with alkyl preferably lower alkyl of up to 5 carbon atoms, alkoxy having up to 5 carbon atoms, hydroxy or halogen preferably chlorine.
- the merocyanine dyes of the present invention are outstanding in their optically sensitizing action' for silver halide emulsion layers containing an azo-dye. Furthermore they are superior to betain cyanines since the color images obtained by the process of the invention show very clear white portions of the images without any color stain.
- the above merocyanines are substantially inert both to the azo-dyes in the photographic layers for the silver dye bleach process and to other additives, in particular stabilizers, mordants such as biguanides or guanides, wetting agents, agents for influencing the viscosity of azo-dyes in gelatin and/or photographic emulsions, hardening agents such as chrome alum, paraformaldehyde, or plasticizers such as glycerol.
- the merocyanine dyes of the invention are preferably incorporated in the washed, finished silver halide emulsions before the azo-dyes are added and should be uniformly distributed throughout the emulsion.
- the silver halides of the emulsions comprise silver Example 1 500 g. of a silver bromide emulsion of average sensitivity are sensitized with mg. of a dyestufi of the formula dissolved in methanol.
- the preparation of the sensitizer is described in- French patent specification No. 1,133,324.
- chloride, silver bromide or silver chlorobromide which of a yellow dyestulf of the formula SOSH: may contain a small amount of silver iodide, preferably as described in British patent specification No. 766,020,
- the type of silver halide emulsions that can be sensitized with the merocyanines of the present invention include any of those prepared with hydrophilic colloids that are known to be satisfactory for dispersing silver halides.
- These colloids include preferably gelatin which can be used in admixture with other hydrophilic colloids such as albumin, alginic acids and derivatives thereof, hydrophilic synthetic resins such as polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl pyrrolidone and the like.
- the concentration of the merocyanine dye and the light-sensitive emulsion can vary widely from about 5 to about 100 mg. per liter of emulsion.
- the suitable and most economical concentration for any given emulsion will be apparent to those skilled in the art upon making the tests customarily used in the art of emulsion making.
- a silver halide emulsion sensitized with a merocyanine of the present invention the following procedure is satisfactory: The desired quantity of the sensitizing dye is dissolved in a suitable solvent and a volume of this solution containing the desired amount of the dye is slowly added to the silver halide emulsion. Thereafter, the azo-dye is added preferably from a solution in a suitable solvent. With most of the merocyanine dyes of the present invention 10-30 mgs. of sensitizing dye per liter of emulsion are suflicient to produce the maximum sensitizing effect.
- the photographic emulsions may be coated on any of the photographic supports including paper, cellulose esters such as cellulose acetate or nitrate, polystyrene, polyesters in particular of polyethylene terephthalate, poly carbonates, preferably of bis-hydroxy phenyl alkanes, and the like.
- Photographic silver halide emulsions containing the merocyanines of the invention can also contain such additives as chemical sensitizers, for instance, sulfo sensitizers, nobel metal compounds such as gold or palladium compounds, stabilizers such as benzotriazole compounds, heterocyclic mercapto compounds, mercury compounds or azaindenes; hardeners such as glyoxal, formaldehyde, acrolein or the like.

- Azo-dyes which can advantageously be used in combination with the merocyanines of the invention comprise the customarily employed dyes which are known to be satisfactory for the silver d-ye bleach process.
- Preferred Example 1 is added to the emulsion.
- the emulsion is then mordanted with 2 g. of diphenyl-4-4-dibiguanide, as described in French patent specification No. 864,332 to increase the resistance to diffusion of the dye, and applied onto a baryta-coated paper.
