Silver halide color photographic material

摘要

A silver halide color photographic material is disclosed, which comprises a support having provided thereon at least one hydrophilic colloidal layer, wherein the hydrophilic colloidal layer contains a novel coupler compound having a high dye forming rate and a high color density represented by general formula (I): (R1COCHXCONR2R3)-(CONHSO2R4)n(I) wherein R1 represents an alkyl group, an aryl group, a heterocyclic group, -NR5R6 or -OR7; R2 and R3 each independently represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, an aryl group or a heterocyclic group; R4 represents an alkyl group, aryl group, heterocyclic group or -NR8R9; R5, R6, R8 and R9 each independently represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, an aryl group or a heterocyclic group; R7 represents an alkyl group, an aryl group or a heterocyclic group; X represents a group capable of being released as an anion (X-) when the coupler compound reacts with an oxidation product of an aromatic primary amine developing agent; and n represents an integer of 1 or more, with the proviso that R1 and R4, R2 and R4, R3 and R4, R2 and R3, R5 and R6, or R8 and R9 may be connected to each other to form a ring. The silver halide color photographic material using the novel coupler compound provides a higher sharpness and a higher sensitivity.
