Abstract

Abstract Undesired color fog obtained on color development of a color photographic material with a primary aromatic amino color developing agent may be reduced when the development is carried out in the presence of an antifogging agent (antistaining agent) of the formula <IMAGE> in which R1 is an acyl group and R2 and R3 are (same or different) hydrogen, alkyl, halogen, sulfo or carboxyl. The antistaining agent is preferable incorporated in non-diffusible form in one or more of the layers of the photographic material.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 104 words
Light sensitive color photographic material comprising at least one silver halide emulsion layer, containing in at least one of its light sensitive or non-light-sensitive layers a non-diffusing antistaining agent corresponding to the following formula: ##STR4## in which R 1 represents an acyl group rendering the compound resistant to diffusion derived from aliphatic or aromatic carboxylic acids or sulphonic acids, including aliphatic or aromatic carbamic acids or carbonic acid monoesters; R 2 and R 3 which may be the same or different represent hydrogen or substituents selected from the group consisting of alkyl having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, halogen such as chlorine, sulpho, carboxyl.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 104 words
Light sensitive color photographic material comprising at least one silver halide emulsion layer, containing in at least one of its light sensitive or non-light-sensitive layers a non-diffusing antistaining agent corresponding to the following formula: ##STR4## in which R 1 represents an acyl group rendering the compound resistant to diffusion derived from aliphatic or aromatic carboxylic acids or sulphonic acids, including aliphatic or aromatic carbamic acids or carbonic acid monoesters; R 2 and R 3 which may be the same or different represent hydrogen or substituents selected from the group consisting of alkyl having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, halogen such as chlorine, sulpho, carboxyl.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 26 words
Material as claimed in claim 1, in which R 1 represents an aliphatic acyl group substituted in the α-, β- or γ-position by an aroxy group.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 22 words
Material as claimed in claim 2, in which the aliphatic acyl group represented by R 1 is substituted with a phenoxy group.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 43 words
Material as claimed in claim 1 which contains color couplers incorporated in a diffusion resistant form in a light sensitive silver halide emulsion layer and said non-diffusing antistaining agent is contained in the same color coupler containing layer or an adjacent non-light-sensitive layer.
