Y., a corporation or New'Jersey No Drawing. Application. August 22, 1940, Serial No. 353,669. 151 Great 31-min August 24, 1939 8 Claims. (01. 95-6)
  • This invention relates to photographic color forming compounds and particularly to non-diffusing coupler compounds containing sulphonamide groups for incorporation in photographic emulsion layers.
  • Color forming compounds which react with the development product of aromatic amino developing agents to form colored images on photographic development have been the subject of numerous prior patents.
  • the dyes formed in this way are insoluble in water and in the ordi-' nary photographic developing and fixing baths although the silver images formed simultaneously with them duringthe photographic development may be removed from the photographic layer to leave pure dye images in the layer.
  • a coupling component or coupler Such a compound which is employed in conjunction with the developing agent for the silver and which couples with the development product of the developer during photographic development is referred to herein as a coupling component or coupler. ,When these coupling components are incorporated in the photo-.
  • R is an aryl radical such as phenyl or naphthyl which may be substituted but which, may not be a hydroxy substituted aryl radical
  • X is an alkyl or phenyl substituted alkyl which may be substituted and Y is an organic substitu- 1 ent such as alkyl or arylradicals.
  • the coupler must also contain a group reactive with the oxidation product of the developer
  • This group is the reactive methylene orethenol group characteristicof couapler compounds and wil1.be more specifically referred to hereinafter.
  • a reac-. tive methylene group it may be contained in the portion' oi the molecule attached either to the sulphur or to the nitrogen atom of the sulphonamide group.
  • the reactive ethenol group this group may not be attached directly to the sulphur atom of the sulphonamide but may be attached to the nitrogen atom or to one of the groups attached to the nitrogen atom oi the sulphonamide radical.
  • onus-car o -r r-crm couplers according Compound -I is a coupler capable of producing a yellow dye image and is of the type described in Vittum, Peterson and Porter U. 8. Patent No.
  • My invention resides in the discovery b-lN-(benryl)-a-naphthalene-sulpbonylaminol-l-naphthol I Ill ' that, by the substitution of'this i'ree hydrogen atom of the sulphonamide group with suitable organic radicals, the valuable properties of the I on- 2,4-dichloro-6-[N-(benzyn-p-nlphthaleno-sulphonylaminol-lnlphthol on.
  • These compounds are usually used in the salt form, such as the hydrochloride or the sulphate, which are more stable than the amines themselves.
  • Suitable compounds are diethyl-p-phenylenediamine hydrochloride, men-- omethyl-p-phenylenediaminehydrochloride, dimethyl p phenylenediaminehydrochloride a n d dimethyl-p-phenylenediamine sulphate.
  • the paminophenols and their substitution products may also be used where the amino group is unsubstituted. All of these compounds have an unsubstituted amino group which enables the oxidation products of the developer to couple with I the color forming compounds to form a dye image.
  • the other substituent onthe nitrogen atom is limited to alkyl, phenyl substituted alkyl or benzyl radicals.- This is the substituent which controls the solubility of the coupler and produces the property of non-diffusibility ingelatin.
  • This substituent may be a simple-methyl or ethyl radical or a phenyl substituted alkyl radical such as benzyl or v-phenylpropyl. These radicals obviously may be considered phenyl substituted alkyl radicals, benzyl being a phenylvsubstituted methyl radical and q-phenylpropyl being a phenyl substituted propyl radical.
  • the coupler must contain the functional or reactive group common to color forming compounds which react with primary aromatic amino developing-agents.
  • This reactive group takes the form of a reactive methylene or reactive etlrenol group.
  • reactive methylene we mean a CH: group which is reactive in the coupling proces's.j
