Abstract
A light sensitive material suitable for coating onto a support to produce a light sensitive plate for use in, for example, the manufacture of a printing plate comprises groups of the formula: ##STR1## attached to carbon atoms of a polymer, wherein --Z-- is --o-- or ##STR2## or ##STR3## wherein R.sub.5 represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group; R is an aromatic radical; a is zero or unity; R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 are hydrogen atoms, halogen atoms, cyano groups, or specified aliphatic or aromatic groups; X is a deactivating group; R.sub.4 is a hydrogen atom, a carboxyl group, a cyano group or a specified aliphatic or aromatic group; and Ph is a phenyl group. The material may be produced by reacting a polymer containing epoxide groups, hydroxyl groups, or primary and/or secondary amino groups with the halosulphonyl group of a compound having the formula: ##STR4## wherein R, R.sub.1, R.sub.2 R.sub.3, and a having the above meanings, wherein X has the above meaning or is a halosulphonyl group and R.sub.4 has the above meaning or, in the case where X is a deactivating group, is a halosulphonyl substituted group.
