The present invention relates to a novel squarium compound that has photosensitivity over a wavelength range from visible to near infrared and is used as a charge generating material for electrophotographic photoreceptors, and a method for producing the same. Conventionally, many substances have been known as materials for electrophotographic photoreceptors. Among these, there are inorganic compounds such as Se/Te, Se/As, and CdSe that exhibit photosensitivity in the long wavelength range. Many of these inorganic compounds are designated as poisonous, deleterious substances, or specified chemical substances, and require special care when handling, especially when disposing of them. They are also difficult to manufacture, have high manufacturing costs, and are inflexible and cannot be processed into belts. There are many problems such as difficulty in In addition, phthalocyanine compounds are organic compounds, which are non-toxic and inexpensive, but they have problems such as low photosensitivity below 550 nm and difficulty in purification, and they are difficult to purify from the visible region to the near-infrared region. No practical material has yet been found that exhibits flat photosensitivity. The present invention provides a novel squarium compound having a flat photosensitivity over the entire wavelength range from visible to near-infrared. That is, the first object of the present invention is a squarium compound represented by the following general formula (). (In the formula, X represents a hydroxyl group, a methoxy group, or a halogen atom.) The second object of the present invention is the formula () 3,4-dihydroxy-3-cyclobutene-1,2-dione (hereinafter referred to as square oxide) represented by the general formula () (In the formula, X represents the same meaning as above.) This is a method for producing the novel squarium compound, characterized by reacting it with an aniline derivative represented by the following. The novel squarium compound described above combines squarium acid and an aniline derivative with a solvent (e.g.
n-butanol or amyl alcohol) at 120 to 140°C for 3 to 5 hours. After washing, the obtained compound is further purified by recrystallization from an appropriate solvent. Specific examples of the novel squarium compounds of the present invention obtained in this manner are shown in Table 1 below in terms of structural formulas.

[Table] The novel squarium compound produced in this manner is effective as a charge-generating material for laminated photoreceptors. Moreover, the spectral sensitivity shows flat photosensitivity over the range of 400 to 850 nm, and has sufficient photosensitivity in the entire visible region and near-infrared region. Therefore, it can be applied not only as an ordinary electrophotographic copying machine but also as a semiconductor laser printer, and is widely used as an intelligent copier. Furthermore, in addition to the field of electrophotography, various applications are possible, such as as optical recording media such as laser disks and organic solar cells. Next, the present invention will be explained by examples. Example 1 Production of compound (1) N-hydroxyethyl-N-methyl-aniline
5.3 g and 1.0 g of 33,4-dihydroxy-3-cyclobutene were added to 35 ml of n-butanol and heated at 120-130° C. for 5.5 hours with stirring. After cooling, the precipitated blue-green crystals were filtered, washed with methanol, recrystallized from chloroethanol, and dried to obtain 1.3 g (38.0 g) of the target squarium pigment.

Elemental analysis: Actual value Theoretical value C 69.26% 69.46% H 6.40% 6.36% N 7.21% 7.36% Visible absorption spectrum: λ nax = 633 nm (in dichloromethane solution). Examples 2 to 4 3,4-dihydroxy-3-cyclobutene and an aniline derivative were reacted in the same manner as in Example 1, except that the aniline derivative was changed. Table 2 shows the decomposition point, infrared absorption spectrum, and visible absorption spectrum of each compound produced, and Table 3 shows the results of elemental analysis.
