  • Patent number: 4994351
    Abstract: A silver halide color photographic material is described which is to be processed by a scheme including at least the step of development with a color developer having a pH of at least 11 wherein said material contains a specific pyrazoloazole based magenta coupler and a compound that react with the oxidized product of a color developing agent and which substantially lacks the ability to impart an image density. The color photographic material is improved in granularity and color reproduction and yet permits efficient desilvering.
