Abstract
Color photographic material is provided which contains at least one silver halide emulsion layer containing a yellow color coupler of the formula ##STR1## wherein G is the radical of a yellow coupler which is bonded to the heterocyclic ring by means of the active methylene group, Z is --CO-- or --SO.sub.2 --, M is hydrogen if Z is --CO--, or a substituent and R is hydrogen or a substituent. The new two-equivalent yellow couplers lead due to their improved reactivity (high maximum density), minimal fog and high fastness to light and outstanding spectral properties of the dyestuffs formed therefrom to a color photographic material of advantageous properties.
