Abstract
A silver halide color photographic material containing a hardener capable of exerting a hardening effect through activation of a carboxyl group and a magenta coupler of the pyrazoloazole type, whereby lowering of color density of magenta images due to use of rapidly acting hardeners can be prevented.
Claims19
A silver halide color photographic material containing a hardener capable of exerting a hardening effect through activation of a carboxyl group and a magenta coupler of the pyrazoloazole type represented by formula (I) ##STR27## wherein R.sub.1 represents a hydrogen atom or a certain substituent group;
- X represents a hydrogen atom or a group capable of being split off by a coupling reaction with an oxidized aromatic primary amine developing agent;
- and Z.sub.a, Z.sub.b and Z.sub.c each represents a methine group, a substituted methine group, .dbd.N-- or --NH--;
- or the pyrazoloazole type coupler is a dimeric coupler, a polymeric coupler or a macromolecular coupler, each having a unit of the pyrazoloazole compound represented by the formula (I).
