Abstract
Abstract Suitable masking compounds for masking the undesired color side densities of image dyes produced from color couplers are those of the following formula ##STR1## in which R 1 represents hydrogen or one or more substituents such as halogen, alkyl, aryl, a heterocyclic group alkoxy, hydroxyl, amino, acylamino, sulfo, sulfonyl, carboxyl or carbamyl or condensed carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring. R 2 represents alkyl, aryl, a heterocyclic group carboxyl or esters or amide derived from carboxyl X represents a dye group optionally containing a solubilizing group. On development with black-and-white or color-forming developers the dye group is released imagewise and is removed by aqueous processing baths leaving back a positive color or masking image.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
155 words
A colour photographic multilayer material with at least one red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, with which non-diffusible colour coupler is associated for producing the blue-green component colour image, a green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, with which a non-diffusible colour coupler is associated for producing the purple component colour image, and a blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer with which a non-diffusible colour coupler is associated for producing the yellow colour component image, wherein a non-diffusible coloured compound of the following formula is associated with at least one of the above-mentioned red-sensitive and green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layers: ##STR43## in which R 1 represents one or more substituents selected from hydrogen halogen, alkyl, aryl, alkoxy, hydroxyl, amino, acylamino, sulpho, sulfamoyl carboxyl or carbamoyl; R 2 represents alkyl, aryl groups, or a non-coupling alkoxy carbonyl group or a non-coupling carbamoyl group; and X represents a dye radical or a radical of a dye precursor carrying a solubilizing group
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
155 words
A colour photographic multilayer material with at least one red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, with which non-diffusible colour coupler is associated for producing the blue-green component colour image, a green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, with which a non-diffusible colour coupler is associated for producing the purple component colour image, and a blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer with which a non-diffusible colour coupler is associated for producing the yellow colour component image, wherein a non-diffusible coloured compound of the following formula is associated with at least one of the above-mentioned red-sensitive and green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layers: ##STR43## in which R 1 represents one or more substituents selected from hydrogen halogen, alkyl, aryl, alkoxy, hydroxyl, amino, acylamino, sulpho, sulfamoyl carboxyl or carbamoyl; R 2 represents alkyl, aryl groups, or a non-coupling alkoxy carbonyl group or a non-coupling carbamoyl group; and X represents a dye radical or a radical of a dye precursor carrying a solubilizing group
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
72 words
