Abstract
A polyester polymer comprising repeating units (I), or repeating units (I) and (II), and having a reduced viscosity (.eta. sp/c) of 0.2 to 10.0 dl/g, measured at 20.degree. C. as a 0.5 g/dl solution dissolved in methylene chloride is prepared by allowing a dihydric phenol (III), or dihydric phenols (III) and (IV), to react with a carbonate precursor or a dibasic acid. An electrophotographic photoreceptor which comprises an electroconductive substrate and a photosensitive layer disposed on the electroconductive substrate and containing the polyester polymer as a charge transporting material or a binder resin. ##STR1## wherein, W is --O-- or single bond, X is a divalent group which is derived from a dihydric phenol containing a hydrazine structure, each of R.sup.25 and R.sup.26 is a halogen atom, an alkyl group, a cycloalkyl group or an aryl group, each of m and n is an integer of 0 to 4, Y is single bond, --O--, --S--, --SO--, --SO.sub.2 --, --CR.sup.27 R.sup.28 --, a 1,1-cycloalkylene group or an .alpha.,.omega.-alkylene group.
