Patent number: 4736055Abstract: Oxime sulfonates of formula I ##STR1## wherein Y is a polymerizable unsaturated group or epoxide group or an --OH, --NHR.sup.5, --COOH, COOR.sup.6, --COCl, --CH.sub.2 Hal, --SO.sub.2 Cl or --NCO group, Z is an (x+y)-valent connecting member, R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are monovalent organic radicals, m is 0 or 1, x is 1 or 2 and y is 1 or 2, can be converted into polymers which can be thermally or photochemically dissociated to form free sulfonic acid groups. Said polymers can therefore be used as photoresists which can be developed with aqueous alkalis.Type: GrantFiled: April 11, 1986Date of Patent: April 5, 1988Assignee: Ciba-Geigy CorporationInventors: Kurt Dietliker, Werner Rutsch, Godwin Berner, Max Hunziker, Christopher G.
