Abstract

A color photographic recording material contains at least one photosensitive silver halide emulsion layer which is spectrally sensitized with a monomethine cyanine dye of the formula I in which: PA1 R.sup.1 denotes a benzothiophene radical which is coupled by way of the 2-, 3-, 4-, 5-, 6- or 7-position thereof to the benzo ring of the benzothiazole group, PA1 R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 (the same or different) denote sulphoalkyl, carboxyalkyl, --(CH.sub.2).sub.n --SO .sub.2 --NH--SO.sub.2 -alkyl, --(CH.sub.2).sub.n --SO.sub.2 --NH--CO-alkyl, --(CH.sub.2).sub.n --CO--NH--SO.sub.2 -alkyl or --(CH.sub.2).sub.n --CO--NH--CO-alkyl (n=1-6); PA1 R.sup.4 to R.sup.6 (the same or different) denote hydrogen, halogen, --CN, --CF.sub.3, alkyl, alkoxy, aryl or a heterocyclic group; PA1 or PA1 R.sup.5 together with R.sup.4 or R.sup.6 denotes the remainder which is necessary to complete an optionally substituted condensed-on benzene or naphthalene ring; PA1 M denotes a cation necessary to balance the charge. PA1 The recording material has increased blue sensitivity.
