Further, the compounds of formula (I) and the compounds of formula (II) may be incorporated together into one layer or may be incorporated separately into layers adjacent to each other. These compounds may be incorporated not only into emulsion layers but also into such auxiliary layers as sub layers, inter layers or protetive layers. The compounds may be added to silver halides at any stage of the preparation thereof, but are preferably added during second ripening or before coating.
- both the compounds of formula (I) and the compounds of formula (ll) are preferably added in proportions of to 10 mole per mole of AgX.
- those which'are lipophilic may be added in the form of dispersions in a high boiling organic solvent such as dibutyl phthalate or in a low boiling organic solvent such as chloroform, acetone or dimethylformamide, while those which are water-soluble may be added in the form of solutions in a water-miscible organic solvent or in an aqueous alkali solution.
- Photographic emulsions used in the present invention may contain AgCl, AgBr, AgClBr, AgBrl, etc.

- Couplers used in a light-sensitive silver halide color photographic material of the present invention are those which form a color image by treatment with p-phenylenediamine type color developing agents, andinclude, for example, yellow couplers having benzoylacetanilide groups, magenta couplers having a pyrazolone or indazolone nucleus, and cyan couplers having a phenol or naphthol nucleus. These couplers may be those which contain in the active methylene or methine positions such substituents as halogens, arylazo groups or aryloxy groups which split ofi upon color development reaction.
- these couplers may contain in the molecules long chain alkyl groups, alkylphenoxy groups or the like non-diffusible groups, either alone or in combination with sulfonic groups, carboxyl groups or the like water-solubilizing groups.
- those which are lipophilic may be used in the form of dispersions in a high boiling organic solvent such as dibutyl phthalate or in a low boiling organic solvent such as chloroform, acetone or dimethylformamide, while those which are watersoluble are dissolved in an alkali, and may be added to silver halide emulsions or may be incorporated into color developing solutions.
- the light-sensitive layer of the color photographic material may be composed, for example, either of protective layer, blue sensitive layer, yellow filter layer, green sensitive layer, inter layer, red sensitive layer, anti-halation layer and support, or in this order from the uppermost layer. Sometimes, the green or red sensitive layer may be the uppermost layer. Further, the color development layer may be composed of one or two layers.
- the support used in the present invention is ordinarily a paper or a natural or synthetic film of the cellulose acetate or polyester type.
- Development of the color photographic material is carried out either in such a manner that a dye image is formed by the primary development, as in the treatment of color negative, or in such a manner that the primary development is effected by using Metol or bydroquinone and then a dye image is formed with a color developer, as in the treatment of reversal color photographic film.
- Typical examples of color developing agents used for development of the light-sensitive color photographic material are sulfates, hydrochlorides and sulfites of N,- N-diethyl-p-phenylenediamine, N-ethyl-N-hydroxyethyl-p-phenylenediamine, N-ethyl-N-hydroxy-ethyl-2- methyl-p-phenylenediamine and N-ethyl-N-B- methanesulfonamidbethyl-3-methyl-4-aminoaniline.
