Abstract
Color developer compositions are described which contain, dissolved therein, both (a) an organic aromatic primary amino developing agent and (b) a yellow-dye-forming coupler having the structure: ##SPC1## Wherein R is a branched alkyl group containing 3 to 6 carbon atoms; X is Cl or Br; Y is X, hydrogen or alkyl (1 to 8 carbon atoms); and A and B differ and are either H or --COOM, wherein M is a photographically inactive cation or a metyl or ethyl group. Use of such compositions results in more efficient coupler usage and color products having yellow dyes with improved aging characteristics. The invention encompasses such liquid developer compositions, blends of (a) and (b), and the yellow dye-forming couplers, per se.
