Identified Dye Image Forming Compound Other Than Colorless Color Developer Or Dye Mordant Containing Or Identified Organic Solvent For An Incorporated Ingredient Patents (Class 430/222)
Abstract: Diffusion transfer color processes and products are disclosed employing image-dye providing materials providing magenta image dyes having the chromophoric system represented by the formula ##STR1## wherein each R is the same or different and is an alkyl group, and each X is the same or different and is hydrogen or an alkyl group (including substituted alkyl). The dye image-providing material includes a diffusion control moiety, such as a hydroquinonyl group, and may be diffusible or nondiffusible as a function of the diffusion control moiety.

Abstract: Novel electron donor precursors have the structure: ##STR1## wherein: Z represents the atoms to complete a mono-, bi- or tricyclic ring system, each ring of which contains 5 to 6 nuclear atoms;n is 1 or 2;R.sup.1 is a monovalent aromatic group when n is 1 and a bivalent aromatic group when n is 2; andR.sup.2 represents hydrogen, an alkyl group, an aryl group, an acyl group, an ester group or an amido group.The compounds are useful in photographic elements, film units and processes to provide electrons to immobile compounds which must accept at least one electron before releasing a diffusible dye or photographic reagent.
Abstract: Novel yellow 2:1 azo-azo or azo-azomethine chrome complexed dye developer particularly useful in diffusion transfer photographic products and processes are presented by this invention. The novel 2:1 chrome complexed dye developers have the following structure: ##STR1## where each A is a phenyl radical; each B is a phenyl or nitrogen containing heterocyclic radical; Y is a silver halide developing substituent; each n is 0 or 1 but at least one n must be 1; R is N or CH; R.sup.1 is ##STR2## if R is N but R.sup.1 is --O-- if R is CH and X is a cation.
Abstract: For the production of cyan and magenta images by the dye diffusion transfer process dye-providing compounds of the formula I are suitable ##STR1## in which A=an oxydizable carrier residue containing a diffusion-preventing radical;n= 0 or 1;P=a monocyclic aromatic radical;M=hydrogen, halogen, alkyl sulfonyl, aryl sulfonyl or sulfamoyl;Q=acylamino;R.sup.1 =hydrogen or a hydrolyzable radical.
Abstract: A photographic element comprising a support, a layer containing an image dye ligand or dye ligand forming material and a layer containing a dye mordant, wherein the mordant layer has associated therewith:(1) a polymer containing groups which form coordination complexes with metal ions; and(2) a source of metal ions.The polymer holds the metal ions in the vicinity of the dye mordant so that the metal ions can metallize the dye or dye forming material at the image receiving layer. These complexes, elements, and receiving elements are particularly useful in diffusion transfer processes. Novel polymers are also described.

Abstract: Shifted photographic dyes which have good storage stability, yet rapidly unblock under processing conditions contain a blocked hydroxy group and a neighboring group that anchimerically assists the hydrolytic cleavage of the blocking group under processing conditions.
Abstract: This invention is directed to photographic elements having hydrophilic colloid layers containing loaded particles of from 0.02 to 0.2 micron in average diameter consisting essentially of a loadable polymer, with greater than 2 percent by weight of the polymer being derived from monomers capable of forming water soluble homopolymers. A hydrophobic photographic dye, coupler, developing agent or ultraviolet absorbing compound is loaded into and distributed through the particles. The weight ratio of the hydrophobic photographic dye, coupler, developing agent or ultraviolet absorbing compound to the loadable polymer is from about 1:4 to 3:1.
Abstract: Hydroquinone esters are incorporated in or behind a timing layer with a high activation energy to release a competing developer upon contact with a processing composition.
Abstract: A method for dispersing an oil-soluble photographic additive which comprises dissolving the additive in an organic solvent and dispersing the resulting solution of the photographic additive in water or a hydrophilic colloid composition in the presence of a surface active polymer comprising (a) a homopolymer of units represented by the formula (I): ##STR1## wherein R is an aliphatic hydrocarbon group having 4 to 22 carbon atoms; m.sub.1 and m.sub.2 each is 0 or 1; B is --O-- or --NH--; A is a divalent aliphatic group having 1 to 50 carbon atoms; and M is a hydrogen atom or a cation group capable of forming a salt with a sulfonic acid group, or (b) a copolymer containing at least 5 mol% of units represented by the formula (I) above and the balance of divalent units copolymerizable therewith and comprising at least one of a benzene ring having a methylene group attached thereto and a naphthalene ring having a methylene group attached thereto.
Abstract: Useful non-diffusible dye-giving compounds for the photographic dye diffusion transfer process are dye sulfonamides derived from enolamines or endiamines or tautomers thereof. The dye-giving compounds are oxidized by developer oxidation products and subsequently split under the conditions of alkaline development to release diffusible dyes. The compounds are of the following formula ##STR1## in which X is a dye moiety and R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 have meanings given hereinafter.
