Abstract
Abstract Colorant materials which exhibits useful levels of electrical photosensitivity are disclosed. These materials have the formula: ##STR1## WHEREIN N REPRESENTS 0 OR 1, m represents 1 or 2, Ar represents an aromatic group, A represents an alkylene group, R 1 and R 2 , when taken together, represent an alkylene group, R 1 , r.sup. 4, r 5 , and R 6 , when taken alone, each represent hydrogen, nitro, cyano, halogen, or one of various specified organo groups, and R 2 , when taken alone, represents hydrogen, an aromatic or an alkyl group.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
219 words
An electrically photosensitive colorant having the formula: ##STR25##wherein n represents 0 or 1; m represents the integer 1 or 2; Ar represents a substituted or unsubstituted aromatic ring group, free from any saturated N-heterocyclic ring group fused thereto, having 6 to 20 ring atoms in the aromatic ring; A represents a substituted or unsubstituted alkylene group having 2 to 5 carbon atoms in the alkylene chain; each of R 1 and R 2 , when taken together, represents a substituted or unsubstituted alkylene group having 2 to 5 carbon atoms in the alkylene chain; each of R 1 , R 4 , R 5 , and R 6 , when taken alone, represents hydrogen, nitro, cyano, halogen, alkoxy having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl having 1 to 8 carbon atoms in the alkyl group, substituted or unsubstituted phenyl, carboxy ester having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, or an amide having the formula: --CONR.sub.2.sup.7 wherein R 7 represents hydrogen or substituted or unsubstituted phenyl or substituted or unsubstituted alkyl having 1 to 8 carbon atoms in the alkyl group; and R 2 , when taken alone, represents hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl having 1 to 8 carbon atoms in the alkyl group, or substituted or unsubstituted aromatic ring group having 6 to 20 carbon ring atoms.
