Definitions

  • the use in color photography of color-forming compounds, which react with the oxidation or development product of primary aromatic amino developing agents to form colored images upon photographic development, is well-known.
  • the colored compound thus formed is deposited next to the silver grains of the silver image during development.
  • the coupler compounds as employed above may be added to the color developer solutions or they may be incorporated in the gelatino silver-halide emulsion.
  • the couplers When used in photographic emulsions, the couplers may be dissolved directly in the gelatin or other hydrophilic colloid. In such case, the couplers must have groups rendering them alkali soluble such as carboxylic acid or sulfonic acid groups.
  • the couplers may be incorporated in a photographic emulsion by dissolving them in a waterimmiscible or oily organic solvent and dispersing the resulting solutions in the photographic emulsion.
  • couplers of high purity particularly couplers containing carboxylic or sulfonic acid groups.
  • problems are experienced in obtaining couplers of sufficient solubility in organic solvents.
  • couplers have a tendency to diffuse in the medium in which they are incorporated.
  • many of the couplers mentioned in the prior art give rise to colored photographic images of undesirable spectral characteristics.
  • a further object is to provide color formers which containing the functional or reactive group which reacts with the oxidation products of the primary amino aromatic developing agents to yield color images, said reactive groups comprising a reactive methylene group, such as ketomethylene, i.e., COCH CO;
  • CIJH C C e.g., phenols and naphthols, which are reactive in the ortho or para position relative to the hydroxyl group;

  • I COiCH soluble salts i.e., sodium, potassium, ammonium, etc.
  • a still further object is to provide color couplers which are fast to diffusion in the emulsion.
  • A-CONH X-III-Alk wherein A represents that part of the coupler molecule CO2CH3 and the corresponding dicarboxylic acid and its watersoluble salts, i.e., sodium, potassium, ammonium, etc.

  • esters are employed, they are dissolved in a suitable solvent such as a mixture of 50 parts phenethyl alcohol, 40 parts of tricresyl phosphate and 10 parts of n-butyl phthalate and the resulting solution incorporated in the emulsion as a fine dispersion. If the acids are employed, they are 5 introduced into the emulsion directly as an alkali metal salt such as the sodium salt.
  • Example 1 Compound (1) is prepared as follows: Dlmethyl 5-(3-nltro-N-octadecylbenzamtdo)tsophthalate C O O OH: (lliaHw Q II I N02 COUCH-a Dlmethyl B-amtno-N-octadecylbenzamido) tsophthalate C 0 O CH:
  • Example II Compound (2) was prepared in the same way as Compound (1) while substituting the isomeric p-nitrobenzoy-l chloride for the m-nitrobenzoyl chloride.
  • Example III I Compound (3) was prepared as follows:
  • the 4-ch-loro-3-nitrobenzenesulfonyl chloride used above was prepared from the potassium salt of the con-responding acid using phosphorous pentachloride as the chlorinating agent and phosphorous oxychloride as a solvent.
  • the residual oil was crystallized from about 1200 ml. of petroleum ether; B.P. -100 C.

  • the above developing agents are preferably used in the form of their salts such as the hydrochloride or hydro sulfate as they are more soluble and stable than the free bases. All of these compounds have a primary amino group which enables the oxidation product of the developer to couple with the color compounds to form dye images. After removal of the silver image by bleaching and fixing in a manner well-known to the art, the color image remains in the emulsion.
