R con 3 Claims, No Drawings ORGANIC PHOTOCONDUCTOR WITH CARBOXY GROUP CONTAINING FLUORENE OR FLUORORE BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention This invention relates to photosensitive materials for electrophotography. More particularly, it relates to the addition of electron acceptive compounds for sensitizing an organic photoconductive material.
2. Description of the Prior Art It is known that a number of organic compounds are used in preparing a photoconductive member for electrophotography, While these organic compounds have several advantages as compared with inorganic photoconductive compounds, they have yet some drawbacks to be removed. A serious'drawback is that they are of extremely low sensitivity and in most cases their maximum absorption of spectra are without the range of ultraviolet rays and thus they cannot be conveniently employed in practical uses.
It is also known that the above drawback may be avoided by adding to the organic photoconductive member electro acceptive compounds which are called rr acid or Lewis acid. For example, as described in Japanese Pat. Publication No. 16587/1967, the addition of less than lmol% of an electron acceptive compound to an organic photoconductive material provides particularly high photosensitivity for the range of ultraviolet rays. In U.S. Pat. No. 3,484,237, a large amountof electron acceptive compound is added, i.e. 49 to 123 mol% of trinitro fluorenone as the electron acceptive compound is added to poly-9-vinylcarbazole of organic photoconductive material to provide high sensitivity for white light.
However, since the electron acceptor compounds as used in such sensitizing methods have strong polar groups, they are generally insoluble in organic solvents or easily crystallized. Thus, the kinds of solvents which can be used, are disadvantageously limited and it is therefore difficult to select arbitarily in preparing a photosensitive layer a suitable solvent for the preparation conditions thereof. In addition, since the electron acceptor compounds crystallize markedly easily when their solvents vaporize at coating step, it is difficult to form an even photosensitive layer. Furthermore, since the electron acceptor compounds are slightly soluble, the amount of the electron acceptor compound to be added, is limited and it often follows that the sensitizing effect of the electron acceptor compound cannot be completely attained in practical usages. Furthermore, since the comparativity of the electron acceptor compound with the organic photoconductive material is low, the electron acceptor compound crystallizes on the surface of photosensitive layer after a relatively short storage period, and now they cannot be used.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of this invention is to provide novel electron acceptor compounds which can be used as a sensitizer in com hination with organic photoconductive matcrials.
Another object of this invention is to improve the solubility of electron acceptor compounds in organic solvents so as to increase the amount of the electron acceptor compound to be added and the kinds of solvents to be used.
Further object of this invention is to increase the DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT The above objects can be achieved by using electron acceptor compounds of the formula:
R l COR 2 X i i wherein R R and R are nitro, cyano, halogen, trifluoromethyl, acyl, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, aryl, aralkyl, or hydrogen; X is oxygen or malononitrile group connected by double bond; R is substituted or nonsubstituted, alkyloxy, alkylamino, aralkyloxy; aralkylamino, aryloxy or arylamino group containing 4 to 30 carbon atoms; and R R and R may be the same or different and furthermore the carbon number of the lower alkyl or lower alkoxy group is preferably 1 to 6 from the standpoint of easy production.
The additional advantage which is brought about by using the above compounds, is that there may be reduced or completely removed plasticizers which are added in the preparation of photosensitive layer and which are apt to reduce the sensitivity of the photosensitive layer.

1n practising this invention, the organic photoconductive materials and the compounds of this invention are dissolved in proper solvents. The compounds of this invention may be dissolved in numerous kinds of solvents and thus the most proper solvent may be selected from numerous solvents depending upon an organic photoconductive material to be used. The amount of the compound of this invention varies depending upon the purpose thereof. For example, where it is coated on a substrate such as paper, film, and the like and used as an almost colorless or almost colorless, transparent photosensitive layer, it is added within the ratio of0.01 to 10 mol, preferably 0.1 to 5 mol per mol of organic photoconductive material (if the photoconductive material is a polymer, it is calculated based upon the molecular weight of unit monomer of the polymer). In this case, high photosensitivity for ultraviolet range is provided. If high sensitivity for visible light is also required, it may be achieved by adding dye sensitizers in such an amount not to color strongly thephotosensitive layer.
If high sensitivity for white light color is needed as in a master photosensitive plate and if coloration of the photosensitive plate is negligible, high ratio of 10 to mol per 100 mol of organic photoconductive mate rial may be used to provide high sensitivity for visible light. The solution containing the photoconductive material and the compounds of this invention may if necessary include binder resins and other additives, which are coated on a substrate or some special cases used in the form of self-substrate.
The following examples illustrate the embodiments of this invention, but do not limit the scope of the invention. Comparison Example 1 To the solutions prepared by dissolving 2.0g of poly9- vinylcarbazole in 30ml of the following solvents were added 2,4,7-trinitro fluorenone (TNF) of 10 mol% and 100 mol% based of poly-9-vinylcarbazole. The solubility of TNF in the solvents were measured and indicated in Table below. wherein reference symbol 0 means that TNF is soluble and X means that TNF is insoluble.
100 mol of the compounds as listed above TNF Solvent mol 7! 100 mol Chlorobenzene Tetrahydrofuran Cyclohexane Pyridine Dimethylform amide (DM F) Dioxane l,2 'dichl0roethane Methylene- Chloride Chloroform Toluene Benzene Carbon disulfide O OO OOOO .taining 3.26g of 2,4,7-trinitrofluorenone, it was observed that 2,4,7- trinitrofluorenone was crystallized and predipitated immediately after the formation of photosensitive layer. Precipitation due to crystallization is judged from opaqueness of the photosensitive layer and unevenness of the surface'thereof. In this comparison example, where the above compounds (1) to (30) were used in place of 2,4,7-trinitrofluorenone, no precipitation due to crystallization was observed. In addition, pyridine was used in place of dimethyl formamide with similar results. Comparison Example 3 Three photosensitive layers comprising polyvinylcarbazole; polyvinylcarbazole, and 2,4,7- trinitrofluorenone, and polyvinylcarbazole, 4,5,7- trinitro-9-fluorenone-2-carboxylic acid octyl ester, respectively, were prepared on 75p thick polyester film whose surface was made hydrophilic, by coating. The thickness of the resulting photosensitive layer was adjusted to 4p. thickness. By winding the polyester film around the rods having the following diameters with the surface thereof outward, cracking of the photosensitive layer was tested. In Table below, reference symbol X means that the cracking of photosensitive layer occurs and 0 means that no cracking occurs.

7-trinitro-9-dicyanomethylene fluorenone-4-carboxylic acid stearyl amide (compound (29) and 40ml of toluene was coated on a paper which was treated not to permeate solvent, and dried to provide a photosensitive paper. The thickness of the photosensitive layer was about 7,u..
The photosensitive layer was charged, exposed to light, and developed as in Example 1 and there was thus obtained an excellent image. The proper exposure amount was 550 Lux sec.
EXAMPLE 3 A solution prepared by dissolving 2g of poly-3- methyl-9-vinylcarbazole and 38mg of 2,7,-dinitro-9- fluoroenone-4-carboxylic acid hexyl ester compound (13) in 35ml of chlorobenzene and a solution prepared by dissolving 11.6mg. of 9,9-diethyl-3,3- dicarbazolyl phenylmethyliodide (sensitizing dye) in 5ml of methylene chloride were mixed to prepare a photosensitive solution. The photosensitive solution was coated on a transparent polyester film on which aluminum was thinly deposited, and dried to form a transparent photosensitive film having a 6p. thick photosensitive layer. The photosensitive layer so prepared was charged, exposed to light and developed as in Example 1 and there was then obtained an excellent copied image. The proper exposure amount was 150 Lux sec.
EXAMPLE 4 A solution composed of 2g of poly-9-vinylcarbazole, 4.9g of 4,5,7-trinitro-9 fluorenone-2-carboxylic acid octyl ester compound (10) and 30ml of chlorobenzene was coated on an aluminum plate to form a 10p. thick dry layer.
