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
A colour photographic multilayer material as claimed in claim 1, wherein the dye radical represented by X is attached to the SO 2 -group either directly or through an intermediate member Z, Z representing alkylene with 1 to 6 carbon atoms, arylene or a heterocyclic group which are attached to X either directly or by way of --O--, --S--, --SO 2 --, --NR-- (R=hydrogen or alkyl), --CO--, --CONH-- or --SO 2 NH--.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 33 words
A colour photographic multilayer material as claimed in claim 2, wherein X represents a radical of the following formula: ##STR44## in which m and n independently of one another represents 0 or 1.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 22 words
A colour photographic multilayer material as claimed in claim 3, wherein it contains a coloured compound corresponding to the following formula: ##STR45##
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 25 words
A colour photographic multilayer material as claimed in claim 2, wherein X represents a radical of the following formula: ##STR46## in which n=0 or 1.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 184 words
A process for the production of colour-corrected colour photographic images, in which a colour photographic multilayer material with at least one red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, with which a non-diffusible colour coupler is associated for producing the cyan component colour image, a green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, which a non-diffusible colour coupler is associated for producing the magenta component colour image, and a blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer which a non-diffusible colour coupler is associated for producing the yellow component colour image, is exposed image-wise and developed with a colour developer compound containing a primary aromatic amino group, wherein a non-diffusible coloured compound corresponding to the following general formula is associated with at least one of the above-mentioned red-sensitive and green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layers: ##STR47## in which: R 1 represents one or more substituents selected from hydrogen, halogen, alkyl, aryl, alkoxy, hydroxyl, amino, acylamino, sulpho, sulfamoyl, carboxyl or carbamoly; R 2 represnts 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 8
Dependent Claim 184 words
A process for the production of colour-corrected colour photographic images, in which a colour photographic multilayer material with at least one red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, with which a non-diffusible colour coupler is associated for producing the cyan component colour image, a green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, which a non-diffusible colour coupler is associated for producing the magenta component colour image, and a blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer which a non-diffusible colour coupler is associated for producing the yellow component colour image, is exposed image-wise and developed with a colour developer compound containing a primary aromatic amino group, wherein a non-diffusible coloured compound corresponding to the following general formula is associated with at least one of the above-mentioned red-sensitive and green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layers: ##STR47## in which: R 1 represents one or more substituents selected from hydrogen, halogen, alkyl, aryl, alkoxy, hydroxyl, amino, acylamino, sulpho, sulfamoyl, carboxyl or carbamoly; R 2 represnts 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.
