Abstract
Abstract A direct positive silver halide photographic light-sensitive material is described, comprising a support having coated thereon a light-sensitive silver halide photographic emulsion layer and a hydrophilic colloid layer, at least one of said layers containing a compound represented by the formula (I): ##STR1## wherein R 1 represents R 6 or R 6 CO--; and R 6 represents an aliphatic group, an aromatic group, a heterocyclic aromatic group or hydrogen; R 2 and R 4 , which may be the same or different, each represents an aliphatic group, an aromatic group, a heterocyclic aromatic group or a hydrogen atom; or R 1 and R 2 together can form a ring; R 3 represents hydrogen or an aliphatic group; R 5 represents Y or X--A--Y wherein X and Y, which may be the same or different, each represents a divalent aromatic group; and A represents a divalent group selected from --CONH--, --NHCONH--, --SO 2 NH--, --B--CONH-- and --B--SO 2 NH-- wherein B represents --E--, --O--E-- or --S--E-- wherein O and S is bonded to X; and E represents a divalent aliphatic group; the compound represented by formula (I) is a fogging agent which imparts a desired fogging activity without detracting from spectral sensitization.
