Photographic coupler solvents comprising aromatic carboxylic esters such as phthalates and isophthalates having bulky or branched ester substituents are described for incorporation in photographic emulsions and elements. The solvents are preferably employed in the cyan layer to protect the cyan dye against ferrous ion reduction. The solvents also provide improvements in yellow dye stability to light, cyan dye stability in the dark and magenta dye stability to heat and light.
