Abstract

A specific class of crystalline organic pigments having the formula ##STR1## WHEREIN N IS 1 OR 2; X consists of the atoms necessary to complete a naphthalene, anthracene, or ##STR2## R.sup.1, R.sup.2, and R.sup.3 are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, halogen, alkoxy, NO.sub.2, alkyl, SO.sub.3 H or alkali metal salts thereof, and COOH or alkali metal salts thereof; and wherein R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 can comprise the atoms necessary to complete a phenyl, naphthyl or anthryl ring; and R is selected from the group consisting of ##STR3## or COOM wherein M is alkyl or an alkali or alkaline earth metal is useful as sensitizers for photoconductive compositions in electrophotographic processes.
