Abstract

Abstract Diffusion transfer color processes and products are disclosed employing image-dye providing materials providing magenta image dyes having the chromophoric system represented by the formula ##STR1## wherein each R is the same or different and is an alkyl group, and each X is the same or different and is hydrogen or an alkyl group (including substituted alkyl). The dye image-providing material includes a diffusion control moiety, such as a hydroquinonyl group, and may be diffusible or nondiffusible as a function of the diffusion control moiety.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 23
Claim 1
Independent Claim 153 words
A compound of the formula ##STR40## wherein each R is the same or different and is an alkyl group, each Y is a diffusion control substituent --A--D wherein D is a diffusion control moiety and A is selected from the group consisting of a covalent bond, alkylene, --SO 2 --NH-alkylene, --SO 2 --, --S-alkylene, --S--, --O--, ##STR41## and --SO 2 NH--; each X' is the same or different and is hydrogen, alkyl or --(CH 2 --X 2 --D) n wherein X 2 is alkylene, and n is 0 or 1, provided that at least one n is 1, said diffusion control moiety D being selected from the group consisting of a hydroquinonyl silver halide developing moiety, a color coupling phenol or naphthol moiety having an available coupling position para to the hydroxyl group, a sulfonamido phenol group which will cleave or ring close following oxidation, and a thiazolidine group capable of silver-catalyzed cleavage.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 153 words
A compound of the formula ##STR40## wherein each R is the same or different and is an alkyl group, each Y is a diffusion control substituent --A--D wherein D is a diffusion control moiety and A is selected from the group consisting of a covalent bond, alkylene, --SO 2 --NH-alkylene, --SO 2 --, --S-alkylene, --S--, --O--, ##STR41## and --SO 2 NH--; each X' is the same or different and is hydrogen, alkyl or --(CH 2 --X 2 --D) n wherein X 2 is alkylene, and n is 0 or 1, provided that at least one n is 1, said diffusion control moiety D being selected from the group consisting of a hydroquinonyl silver halide developing moiety, a color coupling phenol or naphthol moiety having an available coupling position para to the hydroxyl group, a sulfonamido phenol group which will cleave or ring close following oxidation, and a thiazolidine group capable of silver-catalyzed cleavage.
