Abstract

Abstract A color photographic silver halide light-sensitive material is described. The material includes a cyan coupler represented by the general formula (I): <IMAGE> (I) (the symbols are as described in the claims). This coupler is easily soluble in high boiling organic solvents, exhibits a high dye-forming rate in developers, and furthermore, provides color images of high fastness.

Claim 1
Independent Claim 111 words
A color photographic silver halide light-sensitive material, comprising: a support base having thereon: a silver halide emulsion layer comprised of silver halide particles dispersed in a binder; and a cyan dye-forming coupler represented by general formula (I): ##STR6## wherein R 1 is a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, or an alkyl or alkoxy group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, R 2 is an alkyl group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, R 3 is a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, or an alkyl group, X is a member to be released at the time of oxidative coupling with a developing agent, and n is an integer of 1 or 2.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 111 words
A color photographic silver halide light-sensitive material, comprising: a support base having thereon: a silver halide emulsion layer comprised of silver halide particles dispersed in a binder; and a cyan dye-forming coupler represented by general formula (I): ##STR6## wherein R 1 is a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, or an alkyl or alkoxy group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, R 2 is an alkyl group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, R 3 is a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, or an alkyl group, X is a member to be released at the time of oxidative coupling with a developing agent, and n is an integer of 1 or 2.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 65 words
