Single layered photoconductors

A photoconductor consisting essentially of a supporting substrate, and an active layer in contact with said substrate, and which layer is comprised of at least one photogenerating pigment of a titanyl phthalocyanine, at least one charge transport component, and a mixture of a metal oxide and a chelating agent of a tetrafluorodihydroxyanthraquinone, and wherein said titanyl phthalocyanine is prepared by dissolving a Type I titanyl phthalocyanine in a solution comprising a trihaloacetic acid and an alkylene halide;

• adding said mixture comprising the dissolved Type I titanyl phthalocyanine to a solution comprising an alcohol and an alkylene halide thereby precipitating a Type Y titanyl phthalocyanine;
• and treating said Type Y titanyl phthalocyanine with a monohalobenzene;
• and wherein said active layer further contains a polymer binder, and wherein the ratio of said photogenerating pigment to said metal oxide to said polymer to said chelating agent is from about 2/10/30/0.01 to about 5/40/50/5, and wherein said charge transport component is present in an amount of from about 5 to about 50 weight percent.
