A polyhalomethane compound represented by the following formula and a silver halide photosensitive material containing the same are disclosed. (Q1 represents a 1,2,4-triazole ring, etc., Z1 and Z2 each represents a halogen atom, Y represents -SO2-, etc., and A represents a halogen atom, etc.) The polyhalomethane compound is useful as a highly active antifoggant which enables photosensitive materials, especially of the heat development type, to have excellent raw-stock storage stability and image storage stability when stored in a stacked state, without reducing sensitivity nor impairing color tone. |
