Light-sensitive material with compounds reactive with dye developers

Claim 1

A color light-sensitive material comprising a support having thereon at least one light-sensitive silver halide-containing layer, a binder, a compound represented by formula (A), and a compound or a precursor thereof which reacts with an oxidized compound formed from the compound of formula (A), thereby converting the oxidized compound into a non-diffusible form, said compound of formula (A) being represented by ##STR20## wherein R 1 , R 2 and R 3 each represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, a cycloalkyl group, an aryl group, an aralkyl group, an alkoxy group, an aryloxy group, an acylamino group, an alkylthio group, an arylthio group, or a halogen atom, provided that at least one of R 1 , R 2 , and R 3 represents a hydrogen atom; X represents a chemical bond or a divalent linking group; Dye represents an image-forming dye moiety; and G represents a hydroxyl group of a group capable of forming a hydroxyl group upon heating and/or by the action of a base, wherein the compound or precursor thereof which reacts with an oxidized compound formed from the compound of formula (A) is selected from the following compounds represented by formula (II): ##STR21## wherein R 1 represents a hydrogen atom, a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group, or a substituted or unsubstituted heterocyclic ring; R 2 represents a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group, a substituted or unsubstituted acyloxy group, or a substituted or unsubstituted sulfonyl group; R 3 represents a hydrogen atom or a group which can be hydrolyzed; and R 5 represents a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group, or a substituted or unsubstituted heterocyclic ring.
