PURPOSE: To improve the fastness of a color image to light by using a pyrazoloazole magenta coupler forming an azomethine dye having excellent fastness to light. n CONSTITUTION: The pyrazolazole magenta coupler which is expressed by the formula and has at least one subtd. alkyl group as a substituent is added into the silver halide emulsion layer or the layer adjacent thereto in a silver halide color photographic sensitive material having at least one silver halide emulsion layer on a base. The amt. of the coupler to be added is made 0.003W0.5mol for each 1mol of the silver halide. In the formula, [A] denotes the residual group of the pyrazoloazole magenta coupler, R 1 alkyl group, R 2 and R 3 denote a hydrogen atom or substituent and (n) denotes 1, 2 or 3. n COPYRIGHT: (C)1986,JPO&Japio |
