Silver halide color light-sensitive material containing magenta color image-forming polymer or copolymer coupler latex

Abstract

A silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material containing in its silver halide emulsion layer a latex of magenta color image-forming polymer or copolymer coupler capable of coupling with an oxidation product of an aromatic primary amine developing agent, wherein said coupler has repeating units derived from the monomer represented by the formula (I), (II), (III), (IV) or (V) ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 represents a hydrogen atom, a lower alkyl group containing 1 to 4 carbon atoms or a chlorine atom, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 each represents a hydrogen atom, a hydroxy group, a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group, a substituted or unsubstituted 5- or 6-membered hetero ring group, a substituted or unsubstituted alkylamino group, a substituted or unsubstituted acylamino group, a substituted or unsubstituted anilino group, a substituted or unsubstituted alkoxycarbonyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted alkylcarbonyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted arylcarbonyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted alkylthio group, a substituted or unsubstituted arylthio group, a substituted or unsubstituted carbamoyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted sulfamoyl group or a substituted or unsubstituted sulfonamido group, X represents a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, or a coupling-off group linked through an oxygen atom, nitrogen atom or sulfur atom, A represents --NHCO--, --OCO-- or a phenylene group, B represents alkylene (straight or branched), aralkylene or phenylene group or substituted group thereof, Y represents --O--, --NH--, --S--, --SO--, --SO.sub.2 --, --CONH--, --COO--, --NHCO-- or --NHCONH--, and m represents 1 when n represents 1, or m represents 0 or 1 when n represents 0.
