Abstract
Photographic elements, diffusion transfer assemblages and processes are described which employ a novel nondiffusible compound having a releasable 6-arylazo-3-pyridinol magenta dye moiety or precursor thereof having the formula: ##STR1## wherein: (a) R represents hydroxy or amino; PA0 (b) R.sup.1 represents hydrogen, a hydrolyzable moiety or CAR; PA0 (c) G represents carboxy; a hydrolyzable ester or a sulfamoyl group; PA0 (d) CAR represents a ballasted carrier moiety capable of releasing the diffusible 6-arylazo-3-pyridinol dye moiety or precursor thereof under alkaline conditions; and PA0 (e) n is 0, 1 or 2, with the proviso that when n is 0, then R.sup.1 is CAR.
