A silver halide photographic light-sensitive material capable of providing a high contrast image

Claim 1

A silver halide photographic light-sensitive material having a support and provided thereon, hydrophilic colloid layers including an intermediate layer and at least one silver halide emulsion layer containing silver halide particles and additives, wherein said silver halide photographic light-sensitive material comprises at least one of Compound [I] and Compound [II] represented by Formulas [I] and [II], respectively; wherein A represents one selected from a group consisting of an aryl group and a heterocyclic group containing at least one of a sulfur atom and an oxygen atom; n represents an integer of 1 and 2; provided that n represents 1, R₁ and R₂ represent independently a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, an alkenyl group, an alkinyl group, an aryl group, a heterocyclic group, a hydroxy group, an alkoxy group, an alkenyloxy group, an alkinyloxy group, an aryloxy group, and a heterocyclicoxy group, and R₁ and R₂ may form a ring with a nitrogen atom; provided that n represents 2, R₁ and R₂ represent independently a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, an alkenyl group, an alkinyl group, an aryl group, a saturated and unsaturated heterocyclic group, a hydroxy group, an alkoxy group, an alkenyloxy group, an alkinyloxy group, an aryloxy group, and a heterocyclicoxy group, provided that at least one of R₁ and R₂ represents an alkenyl group, an alkinyl group, a saturated heterocyclic group, a hydroxy group, an alkoxy group, an alkenyloxy group, an alkinyloxy group, an aryloxy group, and a heterocyclicoxy group; R₃ represents one selected from a group consisting of an alkinyl grop and a saturated heterocyclic group; R₄ and R₅ represent independently a hydrogen atom, a sulfonyl group, an acyl group and an oxalyl group.
