Abstract: Magenta image-dye couplers provide photographic elements and processes having superior photographic properties. The couplers are 3-anilino pyrazolone couplers having an aryl thio coupling-off group. The substituents of the coupler are specified to obtain advantageous properties.

Abstract: An improved image display material comprising high chloride silver halide emulsions having greater than 90 mole % silver chloride, where the material comprises a yellow dye-forming layer sensitive to blue light comprising a high chloride silver halide emusion with a peak spectral sensitivity to blue light less than about 475 nm, preferably from about 440-475 nm, and a coupler dispersion comprising a yellow dye-forming coupler and a water-insoluble polymer. Photographic image display materials with both short-blue sensitivity and a polymer dispersion in the yellow dye-forming blue-sensitive layer show a synergistic improvement in color reproduction in accordance with the invention, providing for color photographic prints with less color error than seen for materials comprising only one of the components. The improvement is most notable for yellow and green colored areas of a color print.

Abstract: A photographic element having at least one photosensitive silver halide layer and associated therewith both a particular type of color coupler and a particular type of stabilizer. The color coupler is of the general formula (1) or (2): ##STR1## wherein A and B represent the same or different electron-withdrawing group,X is H or a group which splits off on coupling with oxidized color developer,R is an alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl or heterocyclic which may be substituted, --COR.sup.1, --CSR.sup.1, SOR.sup.1, SO.sub.2 R.sup.1, --NHCOR.sup.1, --CONHR.sup.1, --COOR.sup.1, --COSR.sup.1, --NHSO.sub.2 R.sup.1 wherein R.sup.1 is an alkyl, cycloalkyl, or aryl group any of which are optionally substituted, and wherein two or more of A, B, R, and X optionally form part of a ring,Link is a linking group andn is 0, 1 or 2.The stabilizer is of the general formula (I) below: ##STR2## wherein: M is Cu, Co, Ni, Pd or Pt;W.sup.2, W.sup.3, W.sup.4 and W.sup.5 are defined in the specification.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: A photographic element is disclosed including a support bearing at least one photographic silver halide emulsion layer and at least one non-photosensitive layer between the emulsion layer and the support, wherein the non-photosensitive layer comprises at least one blocked developing agent.
