Color photographic element containing ballasted triazole derivative and inhibitor releasing coupler

摘要

The invention provides a color photographic element comprising:a) a first light sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing a compound of Formula I:wherein Q represents the atoms necessary to form a triazole ring and the associated bonds, provided that the ring members may be substituted and that two of such members may join to form a fused ring;provided further that the ClogP for the compound of Formula I is from 4.75 to 9.0; andb) a second light sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, having a spectral sensitivity different from that of the first light sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, containing a compound of Formula II:wherein:1) COUP is a coupler parent group capable of forming a dye upon reaction with an oxidized developer;2) TIME is a timing group and j is 0 or 1; and3) INH is a mild silver development inhibitor fragment.The invention provides improved color reproduction.
