Color-photographic recording material

Abstract

The invention relates to a color-photographic recording material comprising, on a support, a blue-sensitive, a green-sensitive and/or a red-sensitive silver-halide emulsion layer, a protection layer above the sensitive layers, and, if desired, separation layers between the sensitive layers, where at least one of said layers includes a UV absorber of the formula ##STR1## The stabilizers of the formula (1) or (1a) have good inherent stability and high light absorption; the photographic recording material described has excellent stability of the magenta, cyan and yellow layers.

Description

The present invention relates to a novel colour-photographic recording material which includes a UV absorber of the 2-biphenyl-4-aryl-6-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1,3,5-triazine type.

Individual compounds of this type have been described as stabilizers for plastics or sun screens in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,242,175, 3,244,708, 3,444,164, GB-A-2 286 774, GB-A-2 297 091 and WO-96/28 431; GB-A-1 321 561 and WO-96/28 431 also mention photographic material.

Photographic recording material is typically based on silver-halide emulsions, silver-halide and, in the case of colour-photographic material, also the dyes or dye precursors being sensitive to UV radiation. UV radiation having a wavelength of from 300 to 400 nm, in particular, changes or bleaches the material. The changes caused by the UV radiation are undesired; a UV absorber is therefore usually added to one of the upper layers of the photographic recording material.

However, the known UV absorbers frequently have undesired properties, for example inadequate inherent stability to light, heat or moisture, migration or volatility, difficult emulsification, formation of crystals, or agglomeration. It is known to use certain UV absorbers of the hydroxyphenyltriazine type in photographic materials. The publications EP-A-530 135, U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,364,749, 5, 300,414, 5,489,503, 5,538,840, GB-A-2 294 043, DE-A-4 444 258 and U.S. Pat. No. 5,462,846 describe, for example, photographic materials which include, as UV absorber, a compound of the 2,4-diaryl-6-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1,3,5-triazine type.

A group of triazine UV absorbers has now been found which, surprisingly, satisfies the demands made by industry to a large extent. In particular, this group of compounds is suitable for increasing the stability of the magenta, cyan and yellow layers of photographic materials.

The novel UV absorbers can be used for photosensitive materials of all types. For example, they can be used for colour paper, colour reversal paper, direct-positive colour material, colour negative film, colour positive film, colour reversal film and others. They are preferably used, inter alia, for photosensitive colour material which includes a reversal substrate or forms positives.

Furthermore, these triazines can advantageously be combined with UV absorbers of the hydroxyphenylbenzotriazole type, in particular representatives thereof which are liquid at room temperature (cf. for example, U.S. Pat. No. 4,853,471, 4,973,702, 4,921,966 and 4,973,701), and/or with 2-hydroxyphenyl-triazines from other classes, as described, for example, in the publications mentioned at the outset and in U.S. Pat. No. 5,488,108 and U.S. Pat. No. 4,826,978.

The present application thus relates to colour-photographic recording material comprising, on a base, at least one blue-sensitive silver-halide emulsion layer, at least one green-sensitive silver-halide emulsion layer and/or at least one red-sensitive silver-halide emulsion layer, a protection layer above the sensitive layers, and, if desired, layers between the sensitive layers, where at least one of said layers includes a UV absorber of the formula ##STR2## in which R.sub.1 is hydrogen; C.sub.1 -C.sub.24 alkyl or C.sub.5 -C.sub.12 cycloalkyl; or C.sub.1 -C.sub.24 alkyl or C.sub.5 -C.sub.12 cycloalkyl which is substituted by 1 to 9 halogen atoms, --R.sub.4, --OR.sub.5, --N(R.sub.5).sub.2, .dbd.NR.sub.5, .dbd.O, --CON(R.sub.5).sub.2, --COR.sub.5, --COOR.sub.5, --OCOR.sub.5, --OCON(R.sub.5).sub.2, --CN, --NO.sub.2, --SR.sub.5, --SOR.sub.5, --SO.sub.2 R.sub.5, --P(O)(OR.sub.5).sub.2, a morpholinyl, piperidinyl, 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidinyl, piperazinyl or N-methylpiperazinyl group, or a combination thereof; or C.sub.1 -C.sub.24 alkyl or C.sub.5 -C.sub.12 cycloalkyl which is interrupted by 1 to 6 phenylene, --O--, --NR.sub.5 --, --CONR.sub.5 --, --COO--, --OCO--, --CH(R.sub.5)--, --C(R.sub.5).sub.2 -- or --CO-- groups, or a combination thereof; or R.sub.1 is C.sub.2 -C.sub.24 alkenyl; halogen; --SR.sub.3, SOR.sub.3 ; SO.sub.2 R.sub.3 ; --SO.sub.3 H; or SO.sub.3 M;

EXAMPLE A1

9.9 g (0.02 mol) of compound A of the formula ##STR15## and 3 g (0.022 mol) of potassium carbonate are suspended in 50 ml of ethylcellosolve. The suspension is warmed to 110.degree. C., and 3.6 g (0.022 mol) of 1-bromhexane are added dropwise. The mixture is stirred at 110.degree. C. for 21 hours. Cooling forces the product to precipitate. The mixture is filtered, and the filter residue is washed with water, giving a product of the formula ##STR16## m.p.: 176-178.degree. C.

The mixture is refluxed for 17 hours. The xylene is evaporated off, and the residue is recrystallized, giving 6.5 g of the compound A2 of the formula ##STR17## m.p.: 156-158.degree. C.

EXAMPLE A3

9.4 g (0.019 mol) of 2-(2,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-4,6-bis(4-biphenylyl)-1,3,5-triazine (compound A), 2.6 g (0.019 mol) of potassium carbonate and 6.1 g (0.021 mol) of octyl 2-bromopentanoate (octyl isomer mixture) are suspended in 100 ml of ethyl methyl ketone. The mixture is stirred at 100.degree. C. overnight, then filtered and evaporated. Chromatography on silica gel gives 6.3 g of a waxy product of the formula ##STR18## (compound A3); The .sup.1 H-NMR spectrum agrees with the formula.

EXAMPLE A18

30 g (48 mmol) of compound A17 are stirred at 100.degree. C. for 2 hours together with 3.4 g (60 mmol) of finely powdered KOH in 300 ml of Ethylcellosolve. 100 ml of acetic acid are then added, causing the product to precipitate.

The biphenylyl-substituted triazine compounds are very good UV absorbers which are particularly distinguished by very high light absorption in the 300-400 nm region and high inherent stability. In addition, these compounds have high thermal stability. It is also surprising that the solubility and melting points of the stabilizers, in spite of the large conjugated aromatic system, are similar to the solubility and melting points of comparable compounds from the prior art. The compounds are therefore highly suitable for stabilizing photographic recording material, in particular against damage thereof by light, oxygen and/or heat.

The novel photographic recording materials also offer the advantage over materials which include conventional UV absorbers that the UV absorbers of the formula (1) or (1a) are required in comparatively small amounts, so that the thickness of the UV absorber-containing layer also remains low, which has, inter alia, a positive effect on the imaging properties.

Examples of colour-photographic materials are colour negative films, colour reversal films, colour positive films, colour photographic paper, colour reversal photographic paper, colour-sensitive materials for the dye diffusion transfer process or the silver dye bleaching process.

Suitable supports for the production of colour-photographic materials are, for example, films of semisynthetic and synthetic polymers, such as cellulose nitrate, cellulose acetate, cellusose butyrate, polystyrene, polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene terephthalate and polycarbonate, and paper laminated with a layer of barytes or .alpha.-olefin polymer (for example polyethylene). These supports may be coloured with dyes and pigments, for example titanium dioxide. They may also, for shielding against light, be coloured black. The surface of the support is generally subjected to a treatment to improve the adhesion of the photographic emulsion layer, for example a corona discharge treatment followed by application of a substrate layer.

The novel material preferably includes the silver-halide emulsion layers in the sequence blue-sensitive, green-sensitive and red-sensitive, starting from the support. In the novel colour-photographic material, the UV absorber is preferably present in a layer above the green-sensitive layer, particularly preferably in a layer above the silver-halide emulsion layer(s).

The novel UV absorber is preferably present in the photographic material in an amount of from 0.001 to 10 g/m.sup.2, for example from 0.1 to 8 g/m.sup.2, in particular from 0.005 to 6 g/m.sup.2, especially from 0.01 to 3 g/m.sup.2.

The novel colour-photographic recording material is preferably a material having the following layer sequence:

______________________________________ ##STR29## ______________________________________

Another example is a material having a similar layer structure, but in which layer a is omitted. The novel UV absorber of the formula (1) or (1a) is expediently, for example, present in layer a, b, c and/or d, in particular in a, b and/or c, especially in a and/or b, in the layer sequence shown.

In addition to the compound of formula (1) or (1a), the novel recording material includes a conventional UV absorber. The invention thus relates to a corresponding photographic recording material, in particular one in which at least one of the layers includes a conventional UV absorber whose long-wave absorption maximum is at a higher wavelength than that of the UV absorber of the formula (1) or (1a).

The photographic layers in the novel material, in particular layers b, c and/or d, in the colour-photographic material described above by way of example, may include further UV absorbers. Examples of such UV absorbers are benzotriazoles, 2-hydroxybenzophenones, oxanilides, cyanoacrylates, salicylates, acrylonitrile derivatives or thiazolines, and conventional 2-hydroxyphenyltriazines.

UV absorbers of these types are described in greater detail, for example, in the following publications: U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,314,794, 3,352,681, 3,705,805, 3,707,375, 4,045,229, 3,700,455, 3,700,458, 3,533,794, 3,698,907, 3,705,805, 3,738,837, 3,762,272, 4,163,671, 4,195,999, 4,309,500, 4,431,726, 4,443,543, 4,576,908, 4,749,643, 5,500,332, 5,455,152, GB-A-1 564 089, GB-A-2 293 608, EP-A-190 003, 747 755, 717 313 and JP-A-71/2784, 81/111 826, 81/27 146, 88/53 543, 88/55 542 and 96/69 087.

At least one of the layers preferably includes a conventional UV absorber from the 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)benzotriazole or 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1,3,5-triazine class.

The amount of conventional UV absorber used is preferably in the range given above for compounds of the formula (1) or (1a).

Of importance is a photographic recording material of the invention in which the conventional UV absorber is employed in the same layer as the UV absorber of the formula (1) or (1a).

Preference is also given to a photographic recording material which additionally includes a UV absorber from the 2-hydroxyphenyltriazine series which does not conform to the formula (1) or (1a), as described, for example, in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,300,414, 5,489,503, 5,480,108, 4,826,978, EP-A-706 083, JP-A han 08-267 915 and U.S. Pat. No. 5,364,749.

The wetting agent is sodium 4,8-diisobutylnaphthalene-2-sulfonate.

The gelatine layers are dried for 7 days at 20.degree. C.

Use of the novel compound (XIV) gives clear, transparent layers which are suitable, for example as UV filter layer, for a photographic recording material.

EXAMPLE 26

A gelatine layer containing silver bromide and a coupler (M-9) from the following table is applied to a polyethylene-coated support material:

The hardener used is the potassium salt of 2,4-dichloro-6-hydroxytriazine, and the wetting agent used is the sodium salt of diisobutylnaphthalenesulfonic acid.

A step wedge having a density difference of 0.3 log E per step is exposed onto each of the samples obtained in this way and then processed in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions for the Agfa P-94 process for colour negative papers.

After exposure and processing, the remission density is measured in the green region for the magenta step at a wedge density of between 0.9 and 1.1.

A UV absorber filter which includes the compound (XIV) is prepared on a transparent support material as described in Example 25.

The wedge is then exposed behind the UV absorber filter in an atlas exposure unit at 15 kJ/cm.sup.2, and the remission density is re-measured. The drop in colour density (-DD) is greatly reduced when the compound (XIV) is used as stabilizer compared with a sample containing no stabilizer, as can be seen from the following table:

EXAMPLE 27

The procedure is as described in Example 25, but a mixture of a novel stabilizer of the formula (1) and a conventional UV absorber (UVA) is employed in such a way that a filter having an optical density of 2.0 (measured at the long-wave maximum (I.sub.max) at about 350 nm) is obtained. Clear, transparent layers are obtained which are suitable for a photographic recording material. The comparison used is a filter layer containing no novel UVA. The total amount of stabilizer necessary and the ratio by weight of novel/conventional UVA are shown in the table below.

It can clearly be seen that the use of the novel stabilizers allows the total amount of stabilizer and thus the layer thickness to be reduced.

The hardener used is a solution of the potassium salt of 2,4-dichloro-6-hydroxytriazine, and the wetting agent used is the sodium salt of diisobutylnaphthalenesulfonic acid.

Three step wedges having a density difference of 0.3 log E per step are exposed onto each of the samples (with blue, green and red light). The samples are then processed by the (Kodak) RA-4 process for colour papers.

After exposure and processing, the remission densities are measured in red for the cyan step, in green for the magenta step and in blue for the yellow step at a wedge density of between 0.9 and 1.1. The wedges are then exposed in an atlas exposure unit with a total of 15 kJ/cm.sup.2, and the remission densities are remeasured.

The remission density of the magenta wedge is also measured in the blue before and after exposure for yellowing.

The presence of the UV absorber reduces the reduction in colour density of the cyan, magenta and yellow image dyes.

EXAMPLE 29

UV filter layers are produced as described in Example 27. The samples are exposed in an atlas exposure unit with 120 kJ/cm.sup.2, and the drop in density is determined at the long-wave absorption maximum (I.sub.max). The results are shown in the table below.
