Abstract

Abstract Photographic elements having a support on which is coated a layer including a light-sensitive halocarbon and a 1,4-pyran derivative like 1-(p-N,N-dimethylaminophenyl)-1H-3-(pethoxyphenyl)naphtho(2,1-b)pyran or 4-(p-N,Ndimethylaminophenyl)-2-phenyl-4H-1-benzo(b)pyran yield printout images in exposed areas on exposure to actinic rays. The resultant printout image can be intensified by heating.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 31 words
A photographic element as described in claim 1 wherein the halocarbon compound is selected from the group consisting of halocarbon and polyhalocarbon compounds and wherein the 4H-pyran derivative has the formula:
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 38 words
A photographic element as described in claim 2 wherein R represents a radical selected from the group consisting of a hydrogen atom, a methyl radical, an N,N-dimethylaminophenyl radical, and a p-methylphenylthio radical and R1 represents a phenyl radical.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 19 words
A photographic element as described in claim 2 wherein R2 and R3, when taken together, represent a 1,4-but-1,3-dienylene radical.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 56 words
A photographic element as described in claim 3 wherein the methyl radical represented by R is selected from the group consisting of a 1-ethoxycarbonyl-1-cyanomethyl radical, a 1-ethoxycarbonyl-1-benzoylmethyl radical and a nitromethyl radical and the phenyl radical represented by R1 is selected from the group consisting of a phenyl radical, a p-ethoxyphenyl radical and a p-dimethylaminophenyl radical.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 40 words
A photographic element for the production of printout images and comprising a support having coated thereon a layer comprising a halocarbon selected from the group consisting of carbon tetrabromide and dichloroethane and a 4H-pyran derivative as described in claim 3.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 68 words
A photographic element for the production of printout images and comprising a support having coated thereon a layer comprising a carbon tetrabromide and a 4H-pyran derivative selected from the group consisting a. 1-(p-N,N-dimethylaminophenyl)1H-3-(p-ethoxyphenyl)naptho (2, 1-b)pyran b. 4-(p-N,N-dimethlaminophenyl)-2-phenyl-4H-1-benzo(b)pyran c. 1H-3-(p-N,N-dimethylaminophenyl)naphtho(2,1-b)-pyran d. 1-(p-tolylthio)-1H-3-(p-ethoxyphenyl)naphtho-(2,1-b)pyran e. 1-(1-ethoxycarbonyl-1-cyanomethyl)-1H-3-(p-ethoxyphenyl)naphtho(2,1-b)pyran f. 4-(1-ethoxycarbonyl-1-cyanomethyl)-2-phenyl-4H-benzo(b)pyran g. 1-(1-ethoxycarbonyl-1-bEnzoylmethyl)-1H-3-(p-ethoxyphenyl)naphtho(2,1 -b)pyran h. 1-nitromethyl-1H-3-(p-(N,N-dimethylamino)phenyl)-naphtho(2,1-b)pyran, said pyran and said carbon tetrabromide being combined in a weight ratio of from 3:1 to 1:5 respectively.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 38 words
A photographic image-forming process for the preparation of printout images on a photographic element as described in claim 1, which process comprises imagewise exposing said element to actinic rays, whereupon a printout image is produced in exposed ares.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 21 words
A photographic image-forming process as described in claim 8 and additionally including heating said exposed element to intensify the printout image.
