A process for synthesizing an N,N-disubstituted hydrazone comprises carrying out nitrozation by adding an aqueous solution of sodium nitrite to a solution having one part by weight of an N,N-disubstituted amine dissolved in 3 to 30 parts by weight of an organic acid, then reducing the nitrozated product to an N,N-disubstituted hydrazine by adding a reducing agent to the mixture containing the nitrozated product, and thereafter adding to the mixture containing the N,N-disubstituted hydrazine a carbonyl compound of the formula: ##STR1## wherein A represents an aromatic hydrocarbon group or an aromatic heterocyclic group which may have a substituent, B represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, an aryl group or an aromatic heterocyclic group, which may have a substituent, thereby performing condensation of the N,N-disubstituted hydrazine with the carbonyl compound.

Process for synthesis of N,N-disubstituted hydrazone

An organic film comprising at least one compound of the following formulae (1)-(5): ##STR1## wherein R.sub.11 and R.sub.13 each represent substituted or unsubstituted aryl, R.sub.12 represents substituted or unsubstituted arylene, and A.sup..crclbar. represents an anionic residue; ##STR2## wherein R.sub.21, R.sub.22, and R.sub.24 each represent substituted or unsubstituted aryl, R.sub.23 represents substituted or unsubstituted arylene, and A.sup..crclbar. represents an anionic residue; ##STR3## wherein R.sub.31, R.sub.33, and R.sub.35 each represent substituted or unsubstituted aryl, R.sub.32 and R.sub.34 each represent substituted or unsubstituted arylene, and A.sup..crclbar. represents an anionic residue; ##STR4## wherein R.sub.41 represents alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted phenyl, or substituted or unsubstituted styryl, R.sub.42 represents substituted or unsubstituted arylene, R.sub.43 represents substituted or unsubstituted aryl, and A.sup..crclbar. represents an anionic residue; and ##STR5## wherein R.sub.51 represents alkoxy, R.sub.52 represents alkyl, R.sub.53 represents substituted or unsubstituted arylene, R.sub.54 represents substituted or unsubstituted aryl, A.sup..crclbar. represents an anionic residue, and n represents an integer of 1 or 2.

Recording medium and process employing a photosensitive organic film

An electrostatic recording material, such as a dielectric coated paper and a paper for transfer of an electrostatic image, having a dielectric layer comprising a copolymer which comprises about 15 to 70 mol% of methacrylic acid and about 85 to 30 mol% of a methacrylate or acrylate and which contains free carboxylic acid groups, and a process for producing the electrostatic recording material comprising coating a water-soluble or -emulsifiable ammonium or amine salt of the copolymer on a support and drying the coated support.
