Abstract

Abstract Cyan-forming color couplers according to the formula: <IMAGE> wherein Z is hydrogen in the case of 4-equivalent couplers or a substituent that splits off upon color development, thus conferring a 2-equivalent character to the color coupler, and Y is a ballasting group. These cyan-forming color couplers can be incorporated in (a) red-sensitized silver halide emulsion layer(s) of a photographic multilayer color element or in a non-light-sensitive colloid layer in water-permeable relationship with the red-sensitized emulsion layer(s).

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 54 words
Photographic element comprising (a) light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer(s) and at least one phenol-type colour coupler capable of forming a cyan indoaniline dye by reaction with an oxidized aromatic primary amino developing agent and comprising a fluorine-containing alkylcarbonamido group, wherein said fluorine-containing alkylcarbonamido group is a 3-chloro-2,2,3-trifluoro-propionamido group in the 2-position of the phenol.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 54 words
Photographic element comprising (a) light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer(s) and at least one phenol-type colour coupler capable of forming a cyan indoaniline dye by reaction with an oxidized aromatic primary amino developing agent and comprising a fluorine-containing alkylcarbonamido group, wherein said fluorine-containing alkylcarbonamido group is a 3-chloro-2,2,3-trifluoro-propionamido group in the 2-position of the phenol.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 55 words
Photographic element according to claim 1, wherein said colour coupler corresponds to the following general formula: ##STR22## wherein: Z represents hydrogen or a coupling off group, and Y represents a ballasting group, which renders the coupler less liable to diffusion to another colloid layer from a hydrophilic colloid layer, in which it had been incorporated.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 68 words
Photographic element according to claim 2, wherein Z is selected from the group consisting of a halogen atom, an acyloxy group, an alkoxy group, an aryloxy group, an heterocycloxy group, an alkylthio group, an arylthio group, an alkylsulphonyl group, an arylsulphonyl group, an alkylsulphinyl group, an arylsulphinyl group, an alkyl- or aryl-substituted carbonylmethoxy group, an alkoxy- or aryloxy-substituted carbonylmethoxy group, a heterocyclic thio group, and a phenylazo group.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 56 words
Photographic element according to claim 2, wherein Y represents a ballasting group corresponding to the general formula: ##STR23## wherein: Z represents hydrogen or a coupling off group, and Y represents a ballasting group, which renders the coupler less liable to diffusion to another colloid layer from a hydrophilic colloid layer, in which it had been incorporated.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 75 words
Photographic multilayer colour element comprising in one of the light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layers or in a non-light-sensitive water-permeable colloid layer in water-permeable relationship with the light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer at least one phenol-type colour coupler capable of forming a cyan indoaniline dye by reaction with an oxidized aromatic primary amino developing agent and comprising a fluorine-containing alkylcarbonamido group, wherein said fluorine-containing alkylcarbonamido group is a 3-chloro-2,2,3-trifluoro-propionamido group in the 2-position of the phenol.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 75 words
Photographic multilayer colour element comprising in one of the light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layers or in a non-light-sensitive water-permeable colloid layer in water-permeable relationship with the light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer at least one phenol-type colour coupler capable of forming a cyan indoaniline dye by reaction with an oxidized aromatic primary amino developing agent and comprising a fluorine-containing alkylcarbonamido group, wherein said fluorine-containing alkylcarbonamido group is a 3-chloro-2,2,3-trifluoro-propionamido group in the 2-position of the phenol.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 78 words
Photographic multilayer colour element comprising at least three silver halide emulsion layers, which are differently optically sensitized, a red-sensitized silver halide emulsion layer thereof or a non-light-sensitive colloid layer in water-permeable relationship therewith incorporating at least one phenol-type colour coupler capable of forming a cyan indoaniline dye by reaction with an oxidized aromatic primary amino developing agent and comprising a fluorine-containing alkylcarbonamido group, wherein said fluorine-containing alkylcarbonamido group is a 3-chloro-2,2,3-trifluoro-propionamido group in the 2-position of the phenol.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 78 words
Photographic multilayer colour element comprising at least three silver halide emulsion layers, which are differently optically sensitized, a red-sensitized silver halide emulsion layer thereof or a non-light-sensitive colloid layer in water-permeable relationship therewith incorporating at least one phenol-type colour coupler capable of forming a cyan indoaniline dye by reaction with an oxidized aromatic primary amino developing agent and comprising a fluorine-containing alkylcarbonamido group, wherein said fluorine-containing alkylcarbonamido group is a 3-chloro-2,2,3-trifluoro-propionamido group in the 2-position of the phenol.
