The present invention uses the formula as a chromogen. The present invention relates to a color-forming recording material comprising a fluoran compound represented by the formula (wherein R represents a methyl group or an ethyl group) and a color developer. The fluoran compound represented by formula (1) used in the present invention is itself a substantially colorless substance, but
It is a color developer, specifically an electron-accepting substance such as acid clay, clay, phenol-formalin resin,
It has the property of rapidly developing a black-purple to black color when it comes into close contact with bisphenol A or p-hydroxybenzoic acid benzyl ester. Because of these properties, in the present invention, this fluoran compound is used as a black-coloring chromogen in color-forming recording materials such as heat-sensitive recording paper or pressure-sensitive copying paper. Currently, 3-diethylamino-6-methyl-7 is used as a chromogen for black coloring in chromogenic recording materials.
-phenylaminofluorane and 3-N-methylcyclohexylamino-6
-Methyl-7-phenylaminofluorane Two types of compounds are widely used. However, with the development of thermal facsimiles, which are a major use of thermal recording paper, there is an increasing demand for thermal recording paper with a high color development speed, and both of these two types of fluoran compounds are sufficient to meet this demand. It is becoming impossible to respond. The fluoran compound used in the present invention is a new substance that can meet such demands, and the mixture of the fluoran compound of formula () and the color developer bisphenol A is similar to the compound of formula () or formula (). It has the characteristic that the density of the color developed at low temperatures (90 to 100°C) is much higher than that of mixtures. In addition, in JP-A No. 54-30909, a formula is disclosed as having a better degree of color development at low temperatures than known fluoran compounds. The fluoran compound used in the present invention clearly has superior black coloring properties even when compared to the compound represented by the following. A comparison of these is shown in Table 1.

[Table] In Table 1, Compound A and Compound B are the compounds used in the present invention, that is, 3-N-n-
propylmethylamino-6-methyl-7-phenylaminofluorane and 3-N-n-propylethylamino-6-methyl-7-phenylaminofluorane, and compound C is a compound of formula (), i.e. 3 -diethylamino-6-methyl-7-
Phenylaminofluorane, compound D has the formula ()
compound of formula (), i.e., 3-N-methylcyclohexylamino-6-methyl-7-phenylaminofluorane, and compound E is a compound of formula (), i.e., 3-N-iso-pentylethylamino-6-methyl-7-fluorane. It is enylaminofluorane. The numerical values in the table indicate the coloring density at each temperature of the thermal recording paper manufactured in Example 1, Example 2, and Comparative Example 1. A Macbeth reflection densitometer was used to measure the color density. The higher the numerical value indicating the color density, the darker the color is. In other words, Table 1 shows that the fluoran compounds used in the present invention have superior coloring properties, especially at temperatures around 90° to 100°C, compared to fluoran compounds with similar structures. The performance of the chromogen for thermal recording paper used in facsimiles is extremely favorable. The fluoran compound used in the present invention not only has excellent coloring properties as described above, but also thermal recording paper produced using it can be stored for a long time in a high temperature and high humidity environment, even immediately after production. Another great feature is that there is very little dirt on the scalp. The fluoran compound represented by the formula () is the formula 1 molar ratio and formula of the benzoic acid derivative represented by (in the formula, R is the same as above) (In the formula, R' represents hydrogen or a lower alkyl group)
It is obtained by reacting 4-hydroxy-(or 4-lower alkoxy)-2-methyldiphenylamine represented by approximately 1 molar proportion in concentrated sulfuric acid. The benzoic acid derivative used here also has the formula m- (wherein R is the same as above)
It is obtained by reacting 1 molar proportion of an aminophenol derivative with approximately 1 molar proportion of phthalic anhydride, and this reaction is carried out by heating both in a solvent such as toluene, perchlorene or chlorocene. Move forward. It is advantageous to use the reflux temperature of the solvent used as the heating temperature, which varies greatly depending on the type of solvent, the concentration of the reaction solution, etc., and is often carried out in the range of 90 to 140°C. The reaction time is largely controlled by the heating temperature and requires approximately 4 to 20 hours. At this time, an acidic substance (for example, a Lewis acid such as anhydrous balanced zinc) may be added as a catalyst if necessary. Furthermore, the above m-aminophenol derivatives can be obtained by N-alkylating m-propylaminophenol obtained by the reaction of resorcinol and n-propylamine using a suitable methylating or ethylating agent. It is something that can be done. Examples of the chromogenic recording material containing the fluoran compound of the present invention as a chromogen include pressure-sensitive copying paper,
Examples include, but are not limited to, thermal recording paper, thermal copying paper, electrically conductive recording paper, electrophotographic toner, stamp ink, and typewriter ribbon. For example, U.S. Pat.
It can be carried out according to the methods described in the specifications of No. 2548366 and No. 2800458. For use in heat-sensitive recording materials such as heat-sensitive recording paper or heat-sensitive copying paper, methods described in Japanese Patent Publications Nos. 40-60643, 43-4160, and 45-14039 can be used.
