Abstract
The invention provides a photographic light sensitive silver halide emulsion layer having associated therewith a pyrazolotriazole dye-forming coupler having formula: ##STR1## wherein: R.sub.1 is a substituent bonded to the pyrazolotriazole nucleus by a fully substituted carbon atom; PA1 X is hydrogen or a coupling-off group; PA1 R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4, and R.sub.6 are independently hydrogen or substituent groups; PA1 q is from 1 to 3; PA1 R.sub.5 and R.sub.7 are independently alkyl, alkoxy, aryl, or aryloxy groups; PA1 G is a substituent group and n is from 0 to 3; and PA1 Y is a substituent group and m is 0 to 4. The invention also provides a coupler compound, a photographic element containing the emulsion layer of the invention, and an imaging process.
