Abstract

A photosensitive system comprising in intimate admixture (1) a dye in its leuco form, (2) a photooxidant taken from the group of hexaarylbiimidazole compounds, benzophenone, para-aminophenyl ketones, polynuclear quinones and thioxanthenones, and mixtures thereof and in the presence of the admixture is a 5-member-heterocyclic phenylhydrazide compound. The cyclic phenylhydrazide can be present in the admixture, or a dry coating of the admixture, after imagewise exposure, is treated with a solution of the heterocyclic compound. The system is useful in formation of colored images.
