Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material. More specifically, the present invention relates to a silver halide color photographic material with improved color reproducibility, good sharpness, and high color development, and a processing method thereof.

(Prior art) In silver halide color photographic materials, in order to form color images, yellow, magenta and cyan dyes are produced through a coupling reaction with an oxidized product of an aromatic primary amine developing agent. , so-called dye-forming couplers (hereinafter simply referred to as couplers) are used. Among these, benzoylacetanilide type and pivaloylacetanilide type couplers are often used as yellow couplers, and benzoylacetanilide type couplers have characteristics such as high coloring properties and a large molar extinction coefficient of the azomethine dye produced. Pivaloyl acetanilide couplers are known to have characteristics such as a well-cut tail on the long wavelength side of the dye's absorption spectrum (low secondary absorption) and high color image fastness.

In color negative photosensitive materials, efforts have been made to make the photosensitive material thinner in order to improve image sharpness, which is one of its most important properties. One way to make the sensitive material thinner is to reduce the volume of the coupler and the high-boiling organic solvent for coupler dispersion, but in order to realize this method, the molar extinction coefficient must be large.
A coupler with a small molecular weight and high color development is required even when a small amount of a high-boiling organic solvent for dispersion is used. From this point of view, it is considered that benzoylacetanilide type couplers having the above-mentioned characteristics are desirable as yellow couplers used in color negative sensitive materials.

However, the benzoylacetanilide type yellow coupler has the disadvantage that the long wavelength end of the absorption spectrum of the dye produced by coupling with the oxidized product of an aromatic primary amine developing agent is poorly cut, which poses a problem in terms of color reproduction. Ta.

As one method for solving this problem, a method has been proposed in which a compound that forms a magenta image as an inverse function of the exposure amount of the emulsion layer is used in the blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 1983-1996-1). 115156), the compounds described in the same publication are protected with a magenta azo dye or an acyl group such as a hydroxyl group, which is an auxochrome of the magenta azo dye, and the maximum absorption wavelength is temporarily shortened, and both exhibit absorption in the visible region. It is a compound that has

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) However, if such a colored compound is used in the blue-sensitive layer, which is the photosensitive layer furthest from the support, as shown in the examples of the specification described in the same publication, , the filter effect causes a decrease in the sensitivity of the white layer or the photosensitive layer located closer to the support, making it difficult to construct a photosensitive material with well-balanced sensitivity, so it is not a means to solve the above problems. I understand that.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems in silver halide color photographic materials. That is, an object of the present invention is to provide a silver halide color negative light-sensitive material with improved sharpness and color reproducibility.

A further object of the present invention is to provide a method for processing silver halide color photographic materials that forms images with excellent sharpness and color reproducibility.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The above-mentioned object of the present invention is to provide a blue-sensitive emulsion layer with a yellow-coloring coupler represented by the following general formula (I) and to control the exposure amount of the blue-sensitive emulsion layer by photographic processing. This was achieved by a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material characterized in that it coexists with a colorless compound that forms a magenta color image as an inverse function.

General formula (I) (wherein, R represents an aryl group, R2 represents a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, an alkoxy group, or an aryloxy group, R3 represents a group that can be substituted on an aromatic ring, and LVG represents an aromatic group). Represents a group that can be separated by a coupling reaction with an oxidized product of a primary amine developing agent, and represents an integer from 0 to 4. However, when the statement is 2 or more, R3 may be the same or different. , R1, Rz, R3 or LV
G may form a dimer or more multimer. ) Furthermore, the object of the present invention was achieved by processing the above-mentioned silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material with a processing solution containing metal ions after imagewise exposure.

The colorless compound (hereinafter simply referred to as magenta color-forming compound) that forms a magenta color image as an inverse function of the exposure amount of the blue-sensitive emulsion layer of the present invention is preferably a compound represented by general formula (n).

General formula (II) A-(L)-B (wherein, A is a compound formed by -(L) by a coupling reaction or redox reaction with an oxidized product of an aromatic primary amine developing agent)
) -B represents a group that releases a group, B represents a ligand that coordinates to a metal ion to form a magenta dye, L
represents a divalent linking group that has the function of breaking the bond with B only after the bond with A is broken, and n represents O or 1. It is preferable that the compound represented by the general formula (II) is an immobile compound having a diffusion-resistant group in the A or L moiety, and it is preferable that B produced after cleavage from A is a diffusible compound.

The action of the magenta color-forming compound will be explained in detail below using a compound represented by the general formula (rl) as an example.

The compound represented by the general formula (n) is used in a layer containing a blue-sensitive emulsion or a layer adjacent to a blue-sensitive emulsion layer. In the exposed areas of the blue-sensitive emulsion, color development is performed to generate an oxidized form of the aromatic primary amine developing agent in the exposed image, and the generated oxidized form of the developing agent is coupled with the yellow coupler. At the same time as producing yellow pigment,
-(L) by causing a coupling reaction or redox reaction with a compound represented by general formula (II). -B is released. -(L)n-B cleaved from A is further cleaved to release B, which diffuses into the developing solution or into the processing solution in the subsequent step. On the other hand, in areas where the blue-sensitive emulsion has not been exposed to light, the compound represented by formula (n) remains unreacted in the light-sensitive material. The remaining compound represented by the general formula (II) coordinates with the metal ion in the bleach solution, bleach-fix solution, or other processing solution to form a magenta dye in B. In the present invention, the compound represented by the general formula (II) Forming a magenta color image only as a function of the exposure amount is called forming a magenta color image as an inverse function of the exposure amount. The present invention utilizes the magenta image thus generated as a masking dye for correcting color turbidity due to sub-absorption on the long wavelength side of the dye generated from the benzoylacetanilide coupler.

An example of forming a sensitive material using the compound represented by the general formula (n) of the present invention and a pivaloylacetanilide type yellow coupler is described in U.S. Pat.

Color developing agents are generally used at a concentration of about 0.00% per color developer.
Concentrations of from 1 g to about 30 g, more preferably from about 1 g to about 15 g per color developer solution are used. Also,
The pH of the color developing solution is usually 7 or higher, most commonly used at a pH of about 9 to about 13. Furthermore, the amount of replenishment of the color developer can be reduced by using a replenisher with adjusted concentrations of halides, color developing agents, and the like.

In the development process for reversal color photosensitive materials, black and white development is usually performed followed by color development. This black and white developer includes known black and white developers such as dihydroxybenzenes such as hydroquinone and hydroquinone monosulfonate, 3-pyrazolidones such as 1-phenyl-3-pyrazolidone, or aminophenols such as N-methyl-p-aminophenol. Drugs can be used alone or in combination.

The light-sensitive material of the present invention only needs to have at least one silver halide emulsion layer of a blue-sensitive layer, a green-sensitive layer, and a red-sensitive layer on the support. There are no particular restrictions on the number and order of the emulsion layers and non-light-sensitive layers.A typical example is to create a plurality of silver halides with substantially the same color sensitivity but different sensitivity on the support. A silver halide photographic light-sensitive material having at least one light-sensitive layer consisting of an emulsion layer, the light-sensitive layer being a unit light-sensitive layer sensitive to any of blue light, green light, and red light. In multilayer silver halide color photographic materials,
Generally, the unit photosensitive layers are arranged in the following order from the support side: a red sensitive layer, a green sensitive layer, and a blue sensitive layer. However, depending on the purpose, the above-mentioned installation order may be reversed, or the installation order may be such that different color-sensitive layers are sandwiched between the same color-sensitive layers.

Non-photosensitive layers such as various intermediate layers may be provided between the silver halide photosensitive layers and between the uppermost layer and the lowermost layer.

The intermediate layer includes JP-A Nos. 61-43748 and 59-1.
No. 13438, No. 59-113440, No. 61-20
Coupler, DIR compound, etc. as described in No. 037 and No. 61-20038 may be included,
It may also contain a commonly used color mixing inhibitor.

The plurality of silver halide emulsion layers constituting each unit photosensitive layer are
West German Patent No. 1,121,470 or Fu Koku Patent No. 9
As described in No. 23,045, a two-layer structure consisting of a high-sensitivity emulsion layer and a low-sensitivity emulsion layer can be preferably used. Usually, the layers are arranged so that the sensitivity decreases toward the support. Preferably, a non-photosensitive layer may be provided between each halogen emulsion layer.
No. 112751, No. 62-200350, No. 62-2
As described in No. 06541, No. 62-206543, etc., a low-sensitivity emulsion layer may be provided on the side far from the support, and a high-sensitivity emulsion layer may be provided on the side close to the support.

As a specific example, from the side farthest from the support, low sensitivity blue sensitive layer (BL) / high sensitivity blue sensitive layer (BH) / high sensitivity green sensitive layer (G) I) / low sensitivity green sensitive layer ( GL)/high-sensitivity red-sensitive layer (RH)/low-sensitivity red-sensitive layer (RL),
Alternatively, they can be installed in the order of BH/BL/GL/GH/RH/RL, or in the order of BH/BL/GH/GL/RL/RH. ~ Also, as described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 55-34932, from the side farthest from the support, the blue-sensitive layer/GH/R
They can also be arranged in the order of H/GL/RL. Furthermore, as described in JP-A-56-25738 and JP-A-62-63936, the blue-sensitive layer/GL/RL/GH/R)i may be arranged in this order from the farthest side from the support. You can also do it.

In addition, as described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 49-15495, the upper layer is a silver halide emulsion layer with the highest sensitivity, the middle layer is a silver halide emulsion layer with a lower sensitivity, and the lower layer is a silver halide emulsion layer that is more sensitive than the middle layer. An example is an arrangement consisting of three layers having different photosensitivity, in which a silver halide emulsion layer with a low density is arranged, and the photosensitivity gradually decreases toward the support. Even when it is composed of three layers with different photosensitivity, as described in JP-A No. 59-202464,
In the same color-sensitive layer, medium-sensitivity emulsion layer/high-sensitivity emulsion layer/low-sensitivity emulsion layer may be arranged in this order from the side remote from the support.

As mentioned above, various layer structures and arrangements can be selected depending on the purpose of each photosensitive material.

The preferred silver halide contained in the photographic emulsion layer of the photographic light-sensitive material used in the present invention is silver iodobromide, silver iodochloride, or silver iodochlorobromide, containing about 30 mol% or less of silver iodide. . Particularly preferred is silver iodobromide or silver iodochlorobromide containing from about 2 mole percent to about 25 mole percent silver iodide.

Silver halide grains in photographic emulsions include those with regular crystals such as cubes, octahedrons, and tetradecahedrons, those with irregular crystal shapes such as spherical and plate shapes, and those with twin planes. may have crystal defects, or a composite form thereof.

The grain size of the silver halide may be fine grains of about 0.2 microns or less, or large grains of up to about 10 microns in projected area diameter, and may be a polydisperse emulsion or a monodisperse emulsion.

-t, it2 Preparation of Samples 202 to 207 Sample 202 was prepared in the same manner as Sample 201 except that the couplers in the 12th and 14th layers were changed as shown in Table 4.
~207 was produced.

Samples 201 to 207 were processed to a size of 35 m/m, photographed under sunlight using a color checker manufactured by Macbeth, and then developed according to processing step (2) shown in Table 5.

The resulting color negative samples were printed on Fuji Film color paper to match the color and density of the gray areas. Photographs printed from the negatives obtained from Samples 202-207 had superior yellow and green color saturation and fidelity compared to photographs printed from the negative obtained from Sample 201.

Further, standard subjects were photographed using Samples 201 to 207, developed in processing step (2), and printed on Fuji Film Color Vapor from the resulting color negative amount.

It was found that the images printed from the negatives obtained from Samples 203-207 had improved image sharpness compared to those printed from the negatives obtained from Samples 201 and 202.

As described above, it was found that the photosensitive material of the present invention has excellent color reproducibility and sharpness.

When the density of the B-bright areas of the obtained samples was measured, it was found that Samples 203 to 207 had a smaller delay in color development when the development time was shorter than Sample 201, and were found to be sensitive materials with excellent processability. Ta.

For sample 201, DIR was used to improve color reproducibility.
Sample 2 of the present invention uses a large number of couplers.
No. 03 to 207 did not require this, and this is considered to be an effect of being able to reduce the amount of DIR coupler used.
