Color photographic light-sensitive material

Claim 1

A silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material containing: a color stain inhibitor which is a polymer containing a group represented by general formula (I) or (II) as a pendant: ##STR25## wherein: A and B are each --CO-- or --SO 2 --, provided that at least one of A and B is --SO 2 --; R 1 is selected from the group consisting of a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, and a substituted or unsubstituted group selected from the group consisting of an alkyl group, an alkoxyl group, an arylsulfonamide group, an alkylsulfonamide group, an acylamino group, an alkylthio group, an arylthio group, a heterocyclic thio group, an alkoxycarbonyl group, an aryloxycarbonyl group, a sulfamoylamino group, an alkoxycarbonylamino group, a carbamoylamino group, an acyl group, a sulfonyl group, and a carbamoyl group; R 2 and R 3 is a substituted or unsubstituted group selected from the group consisting of an aryl group, an alkyl group, and an amino group, and wherein R 2 and R 3 may be the same or different; and wherein the polymer containing a group represented by general formula (I) or (II) as a pendant is a polymer having a repeating unit represented by general formula (V) or (VI): ##STR26## wherein: A, B, R 1 , R 2 , and R 3 are as defined in general formula (I) or (II); R 7 and R 8 are each a divalent connecting group; n is 0 or 1; and R 6 is selected from the group consisting of a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, and an alkyl group, wherein said polymer does not form color by oxidative coupling with color developing agents during color development.
