Abstract

Abstract Novel methine dyes are provided which feature a bis(alkylsulfonyl)allylidene (or -pentadienylidene) group or a diaryloxysulfonyl allylidene (or -pentadienylidene group. The dyes are useful as filter dyes in photographic materials. Certain dyes of the invention function as spectral sensitizers for photographic silver halide emulsions.
