Abstract

Abstract Novel cyano substituted photographic couplers are represented by the formula: ##STR1## wherein m, R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , R 5 and Z are as defined in the specification. These couplers enable effective magenta dye formation upon reaction with an oxidized color photographic silver halide developing agent. The couplers are useful in photographic silver halide materials and processes.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 97 words
A photographic element comprising a support bearing at least one photographic silver halide emulsion layer and a photographic coupler represented by the formula: ##STR16## wherein m is 0 or 1; R 1 is unsubstituted or substituted alkyl or aryl; R 2 , R 3 , R 4 and R 5 are individually hydrogen or unsubstituted or substituted alkyl or aryl, or R 3 with at least one of R 1 and R 5 represents the atoms necessary to form unsubstituted or substituted 5- or 6-member carbocyclic or heterocyclic rings; and Z is hydrogen or a coupling-off group.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 97 words
A photographic element comprising a support bearing at least one photographic silver halide emulsion layer and a photographic coupler represented by the formula: ##STR16## wherein m is 0 or 1; R 1 is unsubstituted or substituted alkyl or aryl; R 2 , R 3 , R 4 and R 5 are individually hydrogen or unsubstituted or substituted alkyl or aryl, or R 3 with at least one of R 1 and R 5 represents the atoms necessary to form unsubstituted or substituted 5- or 6-member carbocyclic or heterocyclic rings; and Z is hydrogen or a coupling-off group.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 116 words
A photographic element as in claim 1 wherein the coupler is represented by the formula: ##STR17## wherein X is cyano, alkyl, or aryl; n is 0, 1, 2, 3 or 4; R 8 and R 9 are individually alkyl containing 1 to 5 carbon atoms or aryl; or hydrogen; R 10 , R 11 , R 12 and R 14 are individually hydrogen, or unsubstituted or substituted alkyl or aryl; R 13 is unsubstituted or substituted alkyl or aryl, or with R 14 represents the atoms necessary to form a 5- or 6-member carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring; A is a ring atom selected from O, N, or C; and Z is hydrogen or a coupling-off group.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 49 words
A photographic element as in claim 1 wherein the coupler is represented by the formula: ##STR18## wherein R 15 is unsubstituted or substituted alkyl or aryl; R 16 and R 17 are individually hydrogen or unsubstituted or substituted alkyl or aryl; and Z is hydrogen or a coupling-off group.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 12 words
A photographic element as in claim 1 wherein the coupler is: ##STR19##
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 44 words
A process of forming a dye image in an exposed photographic silver halide element comprising a support bearing at least one photographic silver halide emulsion layer comprising developing the exposed photographic element in the presence of a dye-forming coupler as defined in claim 1.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 23 words
A process as in claim 5 wherein the coupler is represented by the formula (II), (III) or (IV) as defined in claim 2.
