Various photoconductive insulating layers are well known in the electrophotographic art for making copies of documents, drawings, transparencies, etc. These layers contain on organic photoconductive compound, such as poly-N-vinylcarbazole, poly-3,6-dibromo-N-vinylcarbazole, brominated poly- N-vinylcarbazole, nitrated poly-N-vinylcarbazole, polyacenaphthylene, etc. These layers are nonconductors of electricity before exposure and become electrical conductors upon exposure.
It is necessary for the electrophotographic art that the photoconductive insulating material has a high photoconductivity in the region of the visible spectrum. Such a photoconductive insulating material makes it possible for the electrophotographic art to employ inexpensive and convenient light sources such as incandescent lamps in a reduced exposure time and to reproduce colored pictures. The photoconductive compounds mentioned above, however, have usually a low photoconductivity and spectrum characteristics sensitive to the short wavelength region of the exposure light and do not satisfy entirely the above requirement.
It is known that an addition of a so-called sensitizer can improve photoconductivity and spectrum response of the above photoconductive compounds. Conventional sensitizers are dyestuffs, such as triarylmethane dyes, xanthene dyes, triazine dyes or acridine dyes, but the conventional sensitizers are-not entirely satisfactory for improvement of the photoconductivity and the spectrum response of the available organic photoconductive compounds.
In addition to the high photoconductivity and spectrum response sensitive to visible light, the electrophotographic art requires a high electric resistance of photoconductive materials in the dark. Conventional sensitizers promote the photoconductivity but increase the dark conductivity. A high dark conductivity of photoconductive materials is not desirable because it results in a loss of the applied electrostatic charge in the dark.
OBJECT OF THE INVENTION response sensitive to visible light.
Another object of the invention is to provide electrophotographic materials having a high electric resistance in the dark.

Said reaction products can be formed by employing the following steps which comprise (1) providing a solution of said benzopyrylium salt in a suitable solvent such as 1,2- dichloroethane, (2) providing a solution of said benzopyrane in a suitable solvent such as l,2-dichloroethane, (3) mixing both solutions and heating the mixed solution (4) pouring the heated solution into a suitable precipitant such as ether to form a precipitate separating the precipitate from the precipitant and (6) purifying the separated precipitate.
BENZOPYRYLIUM SALT There have been known four methods for preparing the benzopyrylium salt. The first method is a modification of a method disclosed in J. Chem. Soc.. i935, page 941 and is based on the reaction of a phenol or phenol derivative with a B-dicarbonyl compound or an a,B-unsaturated ketone in the presence of hydrogen chloride, sulfuric acid, ferric chloride, acetic or formic acid.
The second method comprises using an intermediate product prepared from a phenol and a coumarin derivative in the presence of phosphorus oxychloride or zinc chloride in a similar way to that disclosed in Helv. chim. acta, 34, page 1761 (1951).
The third method is based on a method disclosed in J. Chem. Soc., 74, page 3,445 (1952). A ring closure process of an o-hydroxybenzaldehyde and a carbonyl compound in the presence of an alkali forms a benzopyrylium ring. An ethenyl group of an active a-methylene radical in the 2-position of 2- alkylbenzopyrylium has an important role on the benzopyrylium ring closure process.
The fourth method is based on a method disclosed in J. Chem. Soc., 1929, page 936 and is effected in one step by both ring closure and ethenylation of an o-hydroxybenzaldehyde with a carbonyl compound in the presence of an alkali.
Examples of suitable benzopyrylium salt are given in table 1 below.

After standing in an icebox for 3 hours the solution is added 6 grams of panisaldehyde and 25 milliliters of formic acid, then dry hydrogen chloride gas is slowly blown into the solution in an ice-cooled bath for 1 hour. After standing overnight at a room temperature, the solution in an ice-cooled bath has 90 milliliters of 10 percent perchloric acid added slowly thereto while being stirred. Precipitation starts when the perchloric acid is added to the solution. The precipitate obtained is filtered off, washed thoroughly with ether and recrystallized from an acetic acid to yield 7 grams of needle-crystal which has a melting point of229 to 230 C.

Then, 10 grams of sodium bicarbonate is added to the cold solution. After the solution is refluxed for 10 minutes, the solution is cooled and a precipitate obtained is collected by filtration and washed with methanol. The filtrates are distilled by a rotary evaporator to yield a crude compound. The crude compound filtered off is dissolved in 500 milliliters of methanol under heating in order to obtain a solution, then, the solution is cooled, added 500 milliliters of water and allowed to stand overnight. The resulting precipitate having a melting point of 84 to 86 C. is then collected by filtration.
4. 2-Styryl-3-phenyl-4-methoxybenzopyrane (Compound Number 13) Similarly to the procedure as stated above, 2.5 grams of yellow crystal having a melting point of 63 to 66 C. is obtained from 4 grams of 2-styryl-3-phenylbenzopyrylium perchlorate.

The amount of benzopyrane to be used is oneto three times by molar weight of benzopyrylium salt to be used. The color of the solution changes to dark color with a progress of the reaction. For example, FIG. 1 shows the absorption spectra of, Compound Number 2 (in dichloroethane) and Compound Number 11 (in methanol), and reaction product, Sample Number 27 (in dichloroethane). When Compound Number 2 (reddish violet) reacts with Compound Number 11 (pale yellow), the color of the reacting solution changes from reddish violet to blue. After the completion of the reaction, the solution is poured into ether to obtain a crude product. The crude product is dissolved in dichloroethane, then, the solution is poured into ether to yield a pure reaction product. As shown in H6. 2 at the spectrum of Sample Number 27, the
infrared absorption bands 1,478, 1,375 and 975 cm are distinguished as compared with Compound Number 2.

PHOTOCONDUCTIVE lNSULATlNG MATERIAL An improved photoconductive insulating material adapted for aforesaid photoconductive insulating layer can be obtained by a combination of aforesaid sensitizer and aforesaid organic photoconductive compound selected from the group consisting of poly-N-vinylcarbazole, poly-3,6-dibromo-N- vinylcarb'azole, brominated poly-N-vinylcarbazole, nitrated poly-N-vinylcarbazole and polyacenaphthylene. The sensitizer according to the present invention is usually added to a solution of the'phot'oconductive compound in the form of a solution in a suitable solvent, such as dichloroethane, methylene chloride, chloroform, or a combination thereof. An added amount of said sensitizer is from 0.005 gram to 0.02 gram, preferably from 0.00l5 gram to 0.015 gram with respect to 1 gram ofsaid organic photoconductive compound.
Poly-3,6=dibromo-N-vinylcarbazole and brominated poly- Nvinylcarbazole'are prepared by the methods described in U.S. Pat. No: 3,421 .891. Nitrated poly-N-vinylcarbazole is prepared by the method described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,418,116. Other polymers are prepared by well-known methods.
F6 the preparation of the photoconductiveinsulating layers, a solution of the photoconductive polymer and the sensitizer in a suitable solvent is applied to the supports in the usual manner, for example, spraying, blade coating, wire-rod" coating or whirler coating, and then dried so as to produce a homogeneous photoconductive insulating layer on the electroconductive support. Suitable solvents are benzene, toluene, chlorobenzene, dioxane, methylene chloride, dichloroethane and combinations thereof. The solution may include suitable plasticizers and/or organic colloids for improving the flexibility and strength of the photoconductive compound layer. Suitable plasticizers include chlorinated diphenyl, dimethyl phthalate, diethyl phthalate and octyl phthalate. Suitable organic colloids include natural and synthetic resins, e.g. phenol resin, phenol resin modified wit h rosin polyvinyl acetal, polyvinyl butyral, polyvinyl cinnamate and polycarbonate resin. Suitable materials for a conductive support layer are those materials which satisfy the requirement of the electrophotographic art and include metal plates, glass plates having NESA coating and plates or foils made of electrically conductive resins or coated with a vacuum-deposited thin metal layer. Transparent supports can be used to form transparent .electrophotographic plates, foils or films.
The reproduction of images by electrophotographic ,methods is carried out as follows: when the photoconductive insulating layer has been charged by means of a corona discharge apparatus, the electrophotographic material with the photoconductive insulating layer is exposed to light under a master and is then dusted over in a known manner with a resin powder colored with carbon black. The image that now becomes visible can easily be wiped off. It can also be fixed by heating at about 120 C. From positive masters, positive images exhibiting good contrast are produced.
EXAMPLE This invention is still further illustrated with reference to the following examples which are given by way of illustration only.
EXAMPLE 1 One gram of poly-N-vinylcarbazole, 0.004 gram of a sensitizer listed in table 3 and 0.5 gram of chlorinated diphenyl (commercially available as Kanechlor") are dissolved in 10 milliliters of l,2-dichloroethane. The solution is applied to an aluminum plate and is dried to form a layer [p in thickness. After the aluminum plate provided with the layer is charged positively by means of corona discharge with a charging device maintained at approximately 6,000 volts in the dark, it is placed under a positive master and is exposed to a l00 W tungsten lamp at an illumination of 50 luxes. Subsequently, the plate is powdered over with a developer in a per se known manner. This developed consists of a toner and a carrier. The toner consists of a low melting-point polystyrene, colophony and carbon-black and is mixed with a carrier substance having a nature such that the toner becomes triboelectrically charged with a charge opposite to that produced on the plate. A positive image is produced and is fixed by slight heating. Table 4 shows the optimum amounts of exposure in lux-second units.
It is clear from table 4 and FIGS. 5 and 6 that the sensitizers improve the photoconductivity and the spectrum response of poly-N-vinylcarbazole.
