Abstract
Abstract New tricarbocyanine dyes derived from enamine and enaminium salts are useful as filter dyes and spectral sensitizers for photographic silver halide emulsions. They sensitize such emulsions over a wavelength range of about from 660 to 850 Mu , and higher in some instances, with maximum sensitivity ranging about from 750 to 800 Mu .
