Description
United States Patent Office 3,486,894 Patented Dec. 30, 1969 US. Cl. 9656.5 4 Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Process for obtaining color photographic images having an improved light-stability, by means of ureido indazolone couplers and photographic material obtained thereby. Also photographic processing solutions containing ureido indazolone couplers.
The present invention refers to a process for producing color photographic images by chromogenic development of a photosensitive material in the presence of color formers called couplers of the indazolone class.
It is known that the color photography with the subtractive process is generally carried out by arranging on a support three layers of silver halide photographic emulsion, respectively sensitized to blue, green and red lights, and respectively containing couplers which, during the chromogenic development of the exposed element, react with the oxidation product of a p-phenylene diamine derivative to give yellow, magenta and cyan dyes. For each of these dyes a strong absorption in one of the three regions in which the visible spectrum is conventionally divided and a strong transmission in the two remaining regions is required. These spectral requirements reduce considerably the chemical classes available for obtaining photographic couplers.
Generally, use is made of acetanilides to obtain yellowcouplers, pyrazolones or indazolone's to obtain magentacouplers, and 1-oxy-2-naphthamides to obtain cyan-couplers. The magenta dyes, obtained during the chromogenic development, from pyrazolone couplers, have the disadvantage of having an undesired secondary absorption peak in the blue spectral region, and this is very detrimental to color purity.
Italian Patent No. 464,564 suggests the use of indazolone derivatives as magenta couplers. By chromogenic development these couplers produce dyes having favorable spectral properties, both because of the absence of undesired absorption peaks in irrelevant spectrum regions and because of a characteristic, peculiar shape of the curve in the vicinity of the main absorption peak. However, these dyes have a serious drawback, namely poor stability in the light, which shortcoming greatly reduces the possibility of their practical use.
Now, it has been found that ureido indazolone couplers of the general formula wherein R stands for H, alkyl, aryl or a heterocyclic radical, which may contain one or more substituents to make the molecule of the coupler anti-diffusing and, if desired, alkali-soluble in accordance with the known requirements for the use of the products in color photographic processes, couples with a usual chromogenic developer of the substituted p-phenylene diamine type to produce magenta dyes which, in addition to the abovementioned desirable absorption characteristics, a high light stability, making the reliable use thereof possible in the color photography.
