Abstract
A photographic color coupler in which a hydrogen atom at the coupling position capable of coupling with an oxidation product of an aromatic primary amine developing agent is substituted with a group represented by the following general formula: ##STR1## wherein R and R', which may be the same or different, each represents an alkyl group, an alkenyl group, an aryl group, an alkoxy group, an alkylthio group, an aryloxy group, a hydroxy group, or an amino group, and R and R' can combine each other to form a ring; and X represents an oxygen atom or a sulfur atom. These photographic color couplers are a novel class of two-equivalent color forming couplers which are suitable for use in color photography. A color photographic light-sensitive material containing the above described photographic color coupler and a method of forming a color image comprising developing an exposed photographic light-sensitive material in the presence of the above described photographic color coupler are also disclosed.
