Abstract

Abstract A color image-forming process is described, for a silver halide color photographic material comprising a support having provided thereon at least one red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, at least one green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, and at least one blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, which process comprises incorporating in the photographic material a yellow dye represented by formula (I) and processing the photographic material using a bleach-fixing solution containing a ferric complex of aminopolycarboxylic acid and a thiosulfate ##STR1## wherein R 1 and R 2 each represents a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, an alkyl group, an alkoxy group, a hydroxy group, a carboxy group, a substituted amino group, a carbamoyl group, a sulfamoyl group, a nitro group or an alkoxycarbonyl group; R 3 and R 4 each represents a hydrogen atom, an unsubstituted or substituted alkyl group, an unsubstituted or substituted alkenyl group, an unsubstituted or substituted aryl group, an acyl group or a sulfonyl group, or R 3 and R 4 may be taken together to form a 5- or 6-membered ring; X represents a cyano group; and Y represents an acyl group or a sulfonyl group.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 225 words
A color image-forming process for a silver halide color photographic material comprising a support having provided thereon at least one red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, at least one green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, and at least one blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, which process comprises dispersing in a light-insensitive hydrophilic colloid layer provided at a position nearer to the support than a blue-sensitive layer and more distant from the support than a green-sensitive layer and a red-sensitive layer in the photographic material a yellow dye represented by formula (I) and processing the photographic material using a bleach-fixing solution containing a ferric complex of aminopolycarboxylic acid and a thiosulfate, said formula (I) being represented by ##STR8## wherein R 1 and R 2 each represents a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, an alkyl group, an alkoxy group, a hydroxy group, a carboxy group, a substituted amino group, a carbamoyl group, a sulfamoyl group, a nitro group, or an alkoxycarbonyl group, R 3 and R 4 each represents a hydrogen atom, an unsubstituted or substituted alkyl group, an unsubstituted or substituted alkenyl group, an unsubstituted or substituted aryl group, an acyl group or a sulfonyl group, or R 3 and R 4 may be taken together to form a 5- or 6-membered ring, X represents a cyano group, and Y represents an acyl group or a sulfonyl group.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 225 words
A color image-forming process for a silver halide color photographic material comprising a support having provided thereon at least one red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, at least one green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, and at least one blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, which process comprises dispersing in a light-insensitive hydrophilic colloid layer provided at a position nearer to the support than a blue-sensitive layer and more distant from the support than a green-sensitive layer and a red-sensitive layer in the photographic material a yellow dye represented by formula (I) and processing the photographic material using a bleach-fixing solution containing a ferric complex of aminopolycarboxylic acid and a thiosulfate, said formula (I) being represented by ##STR8## wherein R 1 and R 2 each represents a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, an alkyl group, an alkoxy group, a hydroxy group, a carboxy group, a substituted amino group, a carbamoyl group, a sulfamoyl group, a nitro group, or an alkoxycarbonyl group, R 3 and R 4 each represents a hydrogen atom, an unsubstituted or substituted alkyl group, an unsubstituted or substituted alkenyl group, an unsubstituted or substituted aryl group, an acyl group or a sulfonyl group, or R 3 and R 4 may be taken together to form a 5- or 6-membered ring, X represents a cyano group, and Y represents an acyl group or a sulfonyl group.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 36 words
A color image-forming process for a color photographic material as in claim 1, wherein said dye represented by formula (I) is present in an amount of from 1 to 2,000 mg/m 2 of the light-sensitive material.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 36 words
A color image-forming process for a color photographic material as in claim 1, wherein said dye represented by formula (I) is present in an amount of from 50 to 800 mg/m 2 of the light-sensitive material.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 31 words
A color image-forming process for a color photographic material as in claim 1, wherein said ferric complex of aminopolycarboxylic acid is used in an amount of from 50 to 300 g/liter.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 28 words
A color image-forming process for a silver halide color photographic material as in claim 1, wherein said silver halide emulsion layers primarily contain silver iodobromide or silver iodochlorobromide.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 28 words
A color image-forming process for a color photographic material as in claim 1, wherein an optical density of said color photographic material ranges of from 0.05 to 3.0.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 27 words
A color image-forming process for a color photographic material as in claim 1, wherein said yellow dye represented by formula (I) is incorporated in yellow filter layer.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 34 words
A color image-forming process for a color photographic material as in claim 7, wherein an emulsion layer adjacent to said yellow filter layer contains tabular grains having a diameter-to-thickness ratio of 5 or more.
