The invention provides a photographic element comprising at least one light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer having associated therewith: (A) a phenolic cyan dye-forming narrow bandwidth “NB coupler”; (B) a phenolic cyan dye-forming coupler of formula (II): wherein: R3 is an unsubstituted or substituted alkyl or aryl group or a 5-10 membered heterocyclic ring which contains one or more heteroatoms selected from nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur, which ring is unsubstituted or substituted; R4 is an unsubstituted or substituted alkyl group; R5 is hydrogen, halogen or an unsubstituted or substituted alkyl or aryl group or a 5-10 membered heterocyclic ring which contains one or more heteroatoms selected from nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur, which ring is unsubstituted or substituted; and Z is a hydrogen atom or a group which can be split off by the reaction of the coupler with an oxidized color-developing agent; and (C) a stabilizer of formula (III) wherein: each Y is an independently selected substituent and m is 0 to 4; and each T is an independently selected substituent and p is 0 to 4. Preferably the element has associated therewith one or more high-boiling solvents of formula (IV) wherein: R1 is an unsubstituted or substituted alkyl or aryl group; and G is an unsubstituted or substituted alkyl group.

Loaded latex dispersions of hydrophobic photographically useful compounds with a wide variety of polymer latices are prepared by preparing an oil phase solution of the hydrophobic compound or compounds, preferably essentially free of water-miscible or volatile solvent, combining the oil solution with one or more aqueous solutions, at least one of which contains a polymer latex, and mixing the combination of oil solution, aqueous solution and latex under high shear or turbulence sufficient to cause loading of the photographically useful compound into the dispersed polymer latex wherein the pH of the mixture does not need to be significantly changed.

Photographic elements comprising loaded latex compositions are prepared by (a) combining under conditions of low or moderate shear, in the presence of surfactant, and in the substantial absence of water-miscible or volatile organic solvents, a liquid organic composition comprising at least one photographically useful compound with an aqueous polymer latex, (b) holding the combination resulting from (a) in a liquid state for sufficient time for substantial loading of the organic coposition into the polymer latex to occur, and (c) coating the loaded latex resulting from (b) on a support.
摘要:
Pyrazolone magenta dye-forming couplers having a particular arylthio coupling-off group enhance the photographic properties and improve the manufacturing and handling characteristics of materials and processes employing such couplers. The coupler contains an N-phenyl group, a 3-anilino group and a 4-(arylthio) coupling off group containing a particular aryloxymethylacylamino group as an ortho substituent. A broad range of improvements are realized including stability, reactivity, hue, and dye density in addition to simplified and safer manufacture.The coupler may be represented by the following formula where the substituents and variables are as defined in the specification: ##STR1##
