Description: This invention concerns silver halide color photographic materials of high picture quality which have improved storage properties. The occurrence of color turbidity (color mixing) where the oxidized form of a color developing agent produced during development migrates into an adjacent colored image forming layer and forms the wrong dye is well known in multi-layer color photographic materials of the type which contain color forming couplers in the silver halide photographic emulsion layers and which are developed using a color developing agent such as p-phenylenediamine. Methods in which various hydroquinones are used have been suggested in the past as a means of preventing the occurrence of color turbidity. For example, the use of mono-linear chain alkyl-hydroquinones has been disclosed in U.S. Patent 2,728,659 and in JP-A-49-106329 (the term "JP-A" as used herein signifies an unexamined published Japanese patent application), and the use of mono-branched alkyl-hydroquinones has been disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,700,453, West German Patent Application (OLS) No. 2,149,789, and JP-A-50-156438 and JP-A-49-106329. The use of di-linear chain alkyl-hydroquinones has been disclosed in U.S. Patents 2,728,659, and 2,732,300, in British Patents 752,146 and 1,086,208, and in Chemical Abstract , Volume 58, abstract number 6367h and the use of di-branched alkyl-hydroquinones has been disclosed in U.S. Patents 3,700,453 and 2,732,300, in British Patent 1,086,208, in the aforementioned Chemical Abstracts, in JP-A-50-156438, and in JP-B-50-21249 and JP-B-51-40818, (the term "JP-B" as used herein signifies an examined Japanese patent publication). Other cases of the use of alkylhydroquinones as anti-color turbidity agents have been disclosed in British Patents 558,258, 557,750 (corresponding to U.S. Patent 2,360,290), 557,802 and 731,301 (corresponding to U.S. Patent 2,701,197), in U.S. Patents 2,336,327, 2,403,721 and 3,582,333, in West German Patent Application (OLS) No. 2,505,016 (corresponding to JP-A-50-110337), and in JP-B-56-40816. Also, the use of sulfonamidophenols as anticolor turbidity agents has been disclosed in JP-A-59-5247 and 59-202465. Color turbidity similar to that which occurs in ordinary color photographic materials is also known to occur in color diffusion transfer photographic materials, and the above mentioned hydroquinones have been used in order to prevent this. Hydroquinones for use as anti-color turbidity agents in diffusion transfer sensitive materials have been disclosed in JP-A-58-21249. The use of sulfonamidophenols as anti-color turbidity agents in diffusion transfer sensitive materials has been disclosed in Research Disclosure , 15162 (March 1973), page 83, and in JP-A-55-72158 and JP-A-57-24941. Hydroquinones and sulfonamidophenols have also been used in color sensitive materials as toe cutting agents and anti-color fogging agents in coupling systems, and as development accelerators, toe cutting agents and electron donor compounds in diffusion transfer systems, as well as anti-color turbidity agents. However, these hydroquinones and sulfonamidophenols are known to deteriorate (undergo aerial oxidation) during the lifetime of the sensitive material and to migrate between layers, and this is undesirable since it results in a change in photographic performance with the passage of time. Thinner films are being used in the latest sensitive materials with a view to improving picture quality (increasing sharpness), and techniques in which the deterioration with the passage of time and inter-layer migration of the reducing agents are markedly suppressed are clearly desirable in order to minimize as far as possible the amount of hydroquinones and sulfonamidophenols which have to be added. Furthermore, the reduction in the amount of gelatin which accompanies any reduction in layer thickness has an adverse effect on the inter-layer adhesion of multilayer sensitive materials and improvement in this connection is also desirable. As well as the methods for dispersing the hydroquinones in a sensitive material which involve dispersion along with a high boiling point organic solvent which are often used in practice, methods of dispersion together with a polymer have been disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,293,641 (corresponding to DE-A-3015862) and U.S. Patent 4,366,236 (corresponding to GB-A-2071348), but the suppressing effect on the deterioration with the passage of time and the inter-layer migration of the hydroquinones achieved thereby is inadequate. DE-A-3015862 discloses a photographic material comprising a hydroquinone derivative and a copolymer of N-(2-acryl-amidoethyl) pyrrolidone and vinyl acetate (mole ratio: 75:25) and GB-B-2071348 discloses a photographic material comprising a hydroquinone derivative and a copolymer of butyl acrylate and acrylamide (95:5). It is the object of this invention to provide silver halide color photographic materials which exhibit little change in photographic performance with the passage of time and which have excellent storage properties. Said object is achieved by a silver halide color photographic material according to claim 1. Figure 1-(a) and Figure 1-(b) are respectively a plan view and a side view of the photosensitive material used in Example 2. In Figure 1-(a), A is the photosensitive surface, B is the part on which the spacer is laminated, and C is the pod which houses the alkaline processing composition.

R 1 and R 2 , which may be the same or different, each represents the same group as X, or hydrogen, a halogen atom, a sulfo group, a carboxyl group, or a substituted or unsubstituted carbamoyl group (which has from 1 to 60 carbon atoms, for example carbamoyl, N,N-dipropylcarbamoyl, N-phenylcarbamoyl), a sulfamoyl group (which has from 0 to 60 carbon atoms, for example, sulfamoyl, N,N-dihexylsulfamoyl, N-phenylsulfamoyl), an acyl group (which has from 2 to 60 carbon atoms, for example acetyl, benzoyl, 3-carboxypropanoyl) or a sulfonyl group (which has from 1 to 60 carbon atoms, for example, methanesulfonyl, benzenesulfonyl, dodecyloxybenzenesulfonyl). R 1 and R 2 may be linked to form a carbocyclic ring. Y represents a hydroxyl group or a sulfonamido group, and the total number of carbon atoms in X, R 1 , R 2 and Y is at least 10. The compounds of general formula (I) may be linked to form of a dimer, a trimer, an oligomer or a polymer. X preferably represents an alkyl group, an alkylthio group, an amido group or a sulfonamido group and, more preferably, it represents an alkyl group or an amido group.

Y preferably represents a hydroxyl group. Specific examples of compounds of formula (I) used in this invention are indicated below. The compounds of general formula (I) used in invention can be prepared using the methods disclosed in JP-A-53-32034, JP-A-55-55121, JP-A-59-5247 and JP-A-62-103638, in JP-B-61-13748, and in JP-A-62-103053, and using methods which are based upon the aforementioned methods. When used as anti-color turbidity agents in light-insensitive layers (e.g., an intermediate layer, an antihalation layer, a protective layer) other than emulsion layers, the compounds of general formula (I) are preferably used in an amount of from 1.0×10 -2 to 1.0×10 -5 mol/m 2 per layer, and when used as anti-color fogging agents in the emulsion layers they are preferably used in an amount of from 1.0×10 -4 to 1.0×10 -6 mol/m 2 per layer. The compounds can be added to the emulsion layers and to other layers to prevent the occurrence of both color turbidity and color fogging. The use of the compounds of general formula (I) in light-insensitive layers other than the emulsion layers is most preferred. In this invention, any monomer having a repeating unit of formula (II) can be used for the water-insoluble homopolymers or copolymers which have amido bonds in the repeating unit provided that the amido bonds do not form heterocyclic structural units, and one or more can be included as a copolymer monomer. The term "water insoluble" as used herein refers to a polymer with a solubility in water of not more than 10 g/l and preferably not more than 1 g/l. In general formula (II), R 3 represents hydrogen, a halogen atom (e.g., chlorine, bromine, or fluorine) or an alkyl group (which has from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, for example, methyl, propyl, hexyl), and Q represents a single bond or a divalent linking group (which has from 1 to 20 carbon atoms, for example, p-phenylene or R 4 and R 5 represent hydrogen, alkyl groups (which have from 1 to 20 carbon atoms, for example, methyl, ethyl, propyl, n-butyl, t-butyl, hexyloxypropyl), aryl groups (which have from 6 to 20 carbon atoms, for example, phenyl, p-methoxyphenyl) or heterocyclic groups (five to seven membered rings and which have from 2 to 20 carbon atoms, for example, pyridin-4-yl). R 3 is preferably hydrogen or an alkyl group and, more preferably, it is hydrogen or methyl. Q is preferably a single bond. R 4 and R 5 are preferably hydrogen or alkyl groups and, more preferably, at least one of R 4 and R 5 is an alkyl group. Specific examples of the repeating units of water insoluble homopolymers or copolymers represented by formula (II) are indicated below. The polymers used in this invention may contain other monomers as copolymer monomers. The used copolymer monomers are selected from acrylic acid esters (e.g., methyl acrylate, ethyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl acrylate, 2-chloroethyl acrylate, cyanoethyl acrylate, methoxybenzyl acrylate), methacrylic acid esters (e.g., methyl methacrylate, ethyl methacrylate, butyl methacrylate, cyclohexyl methacrylate, chlorobenzyl methacrylate, sulfopropyl methacrylate), vinyl esters (e.g., vinyl acetate, vinyl propionate, vinyl methoxyacetate), olefins (e.g., dicyclopentadiene, propylene, 1-butene, vinyl chloride, isoprene, styrene, chlorostyrene), vinyl ethers (e.g., methyl vinyl ether, butyl vinyl ether), crotonic acid esters, itaconic acid diesters, maleic acid diesters, fumaric acid diesters, and vinyl ketones. The polymers used in this invention may consist of two or more monomers of the type which have an amido bond and monomers of the type which do not have an amido bond. Furthermore, water soluble monomers (here signifying monomers which form water soluble homopolymers) can be used as copolymer monomers provided that the resulting copolymer is water insoluble. However, the content of the monomer represented by formula (II) is preferably from 30% to 100% (by weight) and more preferably from 60% to 100% (by weight). Two or more of the polymers of the material of this invention disclosed above can be used conjointly. The molecular weights or degrees of polymerization of the polymers used in this invention do not have a great influence on the effect of the invention, but problems can arise with the time taken to form a solution on dissolving the polymers in an auxiliary solvent if the molecular weight is high and, because of the high viscosities of the resulting solutions, difficulties can arise with emulsification and dispersion, coarse particles can be produced, and this may result in a lowering of coloration or it may give rise to problems such as those caused by poor coating properties. The use of large amounts of an auxiliary solvent to lower the solution viscosity in order to overcome these problems causes another problems in the process. From this point of view, the polymer is preferably such that the viscosity of a solution obtained by dissolving 30 g of the polymer in 100 ml of the auxiliary solvent which is being used is not more than 5 Pa·s (5,000 cps), and more preferably the viscosity of such a solution is not more than 2 Pa·s (2,000 cps). The molecular weight of the polymers which can be used in the invention is preferably not more than 500,000, more preferably from 2,000 to 150,000, and most preferably from 5,000 to 80,000. The homopolymer or copolymer used in the present invention is present in amounts of from 10 g/m 2 to 1×10 -4 g/m 2 , preferably 0.1 g/m 2 to 1×10 -4 g/m 2 in a photographic material. The proportion of the polymer used in invention with respect to the auxiliary solvent differs according to the type of polymer which is being used, and varies across a wide range, depending on the solubility in the auxiliary solvent and the degree of polymerization, and the solubility of the compound represented by formula (I). Normally, the amount of auxiliary solvent used is an amount which is required to provide a sufficiently low viscosity so that the solution which consists of at least three substances, namely the compound represented by formula (I), the high boiling point organic solvent and the polymer, dissolved in the auxiliary solvent can be easily dispersed in water or in an aqueous hydrophilic coloid solution. The viscosity of the solution increases as the degree of polymerization of the polymer is increased and so it is difficult to establish a general rule for the proportion of polymer with respect to the auxiliary solvent irrespective of the type of polymer but, normally, proportions within the range from about 1:1 to about 1:50 (by weight) are preferred. The proportion of the polymer with respect to the compound represented by formula (I) is preferably within the range from 1:20 to 20:1, and more preferably it is within the range from 1:10 to 10:1. Specific examples of polymers which can be used in the invention are indicated below. The polymers used in this invention can be synthesized using the compounds disclosed in JP-A-56-5543, JP-A-57-94752, JP-A-57-176038, JP-A-57-204038, JP-A-58-28745, JP-A-58-10738, JP-A-58-42044 and JP-A-58-145944 as polymerization initiators and polymerization solvents, or using methods disclosed therein. The polymerization temperature must be set in accordance with the molecular weight of the polymer which is being formed and the type of initiating agent, and temperatures from below 0°C to in excess of 100°C can be used, but polymerization is normally carried out at a temperature within the range from 30°C to 100°C. The silver halide contained in the photographic emulsion layer of a photographic material according to the invention is preferably a silver iodobromide, silver iodochloride or silver iodochlorobromide which contains not more than about 30 mol% of silver iodide. The use of silver iodobromides which contain from about 2 mol% to about 25 mol% of silver iodide is particularly desirable. The silver halide grains in the photographic emulsion may have a regular crystalline form, such as a cubic, octahedral or tetradecahedral form, an irregular crystalline form, such as a spherical or tabular form, they may have crystal defects such as twinned crystal planes, or they may have a composite form consisting of these forms. The silver halide grains may be of a small size not more than about 0.2 µm, or of a large size such that the projected area diameter is up to about 10 µm, and they may take the form of a poly-disperse emulsion or a mono-disperse emulsion. The silver halide photographic emulsions which can be used in the invention can be prepared, for example, using the methods disclosed for example in Research Disclosure (RD) No. 17643 (December 1978), pages 22 to 23, "I. Emulsion Preparation and Types", and in RD No. 18716 (November 1979), page 648; in Chemie et Physique Photographique , by P. Glafkides, (Paul Montel, 1967); in Photographic Emulsion Chemistry , by G.F. Duffin, (Focal Press, 1966); and in Making and Coating Photographic Emulsions , by V.L.

The crystal structure may be uniform, the interior and exterior parts may have a heterogeneous halogen composition, or the grains may have a layered structure and, moreover, silver halides which have different compositions may be joined with an epitaxial junction or they may be joined with compounds other than silver halides, such as silver thiocyanate or lead oxide. Mixtures of grains of various crystalline forms can also be used. The silver halide emulsions which are used are normally subjected to physical ripening, chemical ripening and spectral sensitization. Additives which can be used in these processes have been disclosed in Research Disclosure , Nos. 17643 and 18716 as summarized in the table below.

Known black and white developing agents, for example the dihydroxybenzenes such as hydroquinone, the 3-pyrazolidones such as 1-phenyl-3-pyrazolidone, and the amino phenols such as N-methyl-p-aminophenol, can be used individually or conjointly in the black and white development bath. The pH of these color development baths and black and white development baths is generally within the range from 9 to 12. Furthermore, the replenishment rate of the development bath depends on the color photographic materials which is being processed, but it is generally not more than 3 liters per square meter of photosensitive material, and it is possible, by reducing the bromide ion concentration in the replenisher, to use a replenishment rate of not more than 500 ml per square meter of photosensitive material. The prevention of loss of liquid by evaporation, and aerial oxidation, by minimizing the contact area with the air in the processing tank is desirable in cases where the replenishment rate is low. Furthermore, the replenishment rate can be reduced by suppressing the accumulation of bromide ion in the development bath. The photographic emulsion layers are subjected to a conventional bleaching process after color development. The bleaching process may be carried out at the same time as the fixing process (in a bleach-fix process) or it may be carried out as separate process. Moreover, a bleach-fix process can be carried out after a bleach process in order to speed up processing. Moreover processing can be carried out in two connected bleach-fix baths, a fixing process can be carried out before carrying out a bleach-fix process, or a bleaching process can be carried out after a bleach-fix process, according to the intended purpose of the processing. Compounds of a poly-valent metal such as iron(III), cobalt(III), chromium(VI), copper(II), peracids, quinones, and nitro compounds can be used as bleaching agents. Typical bleaching agents include ferricyanides; dichromates; organic complex salts of iron(III) or cobalt(III), for example complex salts with aminopolycarboxylic acids such as ethylenediamine tetra-acetic acid, diethylenetriamine penta-acetic acid, cyclohexanediamine tetra-acetic acid, methylimino diacetic acid, 1,3-diaminopropane tetra-acetic acid, glycol ether diamine tetra-acetic acid, or citric acid, tartaric acid, or maleic acid; persulfates; bromates; permanganates and nitrobenzenes. Of these materials, the use of the aminopolycarboxylic acid iron(III) complex salts, principally ethylenediamine tetra-acetic acid iron(III) complex salts, and persulfates, is preferred in view of both rapid processing and the prevention of environmental pollution. Moreover, the amino polycarboxylic acid iron(III) complex salts are especially useful in both bleach baths and bleach-fix baths. The pH of a bleach or bleach-fix bath in which aminopolycarboxylic acid iron(III) complex salts are being used is normally from 5.5 to 8, but a lower pH can be used in order to speed up processing. Bleach accelerators can be used, as required, in the bleach baths, bleach-fix baths, or bleach or bleach-fix pre-baths. Examples of useful bleach accelerators include the following: compounds which have a mercapto group or a disulfide group disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,893,858, West German Patents 1,290,812 and 2,059,988, JP-A-53-32736, JP-A-53-57831, JP-A-53-37418, JP-A-53-72623, JP-A-53-95630, JP-A-53-95631, JP-A-53-104232, JP-A-53-124424, JP-A-53-141623 and JP-A-53-28426, and in Research Disclosure , No. 17,129 (July 1978); the thiazolidine derivatives disclosed in JP-A-50-140129; the thiourea derivatives disclosed in JP-B-45-8506, JP-A-52-20832 and JP-A-53-32735, and in U.S. Patent 3,706,561; the iodides disclosed in West German Patent 1,127,715 and in JP-A-58-16235; the polyoxyethylene compounds disclosed in West German Patents 966,410 and 2,748,430; the polyamine compounds disclosed in JP-B-45-8836; the other compounds disclosed in JP-A-49-42434 JP-A-49-59644, JP-A-53-94927, JP-A-54-35727, JP-A-55-26506 and JP-A-58-163940; and bromide ions. Among these compounds, those which have a mercapto group or a disulfide group are preferred in view of their large accelerating effect, and the use of the compounds disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,893,858, West German Patent 1,290,812, and in JP-A-53-95630 is especially prefered. Moreover, the use of the compounds disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,552,834 is also desirable. These bleach accelerators may be added to the sensitive material. These bleach accelerators are especially effective when bleach-fixing color photosensitive materials for photographic purposes. Thiosulfates, thiocyanates, thioether based compounds, thioureas and large quantities of iodide can be used as fixing agents, but thiosulfates are generally used for this purpose, and ammonium thiosulfate in particular can be used in the widest range of applications. Sulfites, bisulfites, or carbonylbisulfite addition compounds, are preferred as preservatives for bleach-fix baths. The silver halide color photographic materials of this invention are generally subjected to a water washing and/or stabilizing process after the desilvering process. The amount of water used in the water washing process can be fixed within a wide range according to the nature of the photosensitive material (for example the materials, such as the couplers, which are being used), the wash water temperature, the number of washing tanks (the number of washing stages), the replenishment system, i.e. whether a counter-flow or a sequential-flow system is used, and various other conditions. The relationship between the amount of water used and the number of water washing tanks in a multi-stage counter-flow system can be obtained using the method outlined on pages 248 to 253 of the Journal of the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers , Volume 64 (May 1955). The amount of wash water can be greatly reduced by using the multi-stage counter-flow system noted in this article, but bacteria proliferate due to the increased residence time of the water in the tanks and problems arise as a result of the sediments which are formed becoming attached to the photosensitive material. The method in which the calcium ion and magnesium ion concentrations are reduced disclosed in JP-A-62-288838 can be used very effectively to overcome problems of this sort in the processing of color photosensitive materials of this invention. Furthermore, the isothiazolone compounds and thiabendazoles disclosed in JP-A-57-8542, chlorine based disinfectants such as sodium chloroisocyanurate, and benzotriazoles, and the disinfectants disclosed in Chemistry of Biocides and Fungicides by Horiguchi, Reduction of Micro-organisms, Biocidal and Fungicidal Techniques , published by the Health and Hygiene technical Society and in A Dictionary of Biocides and Fungicides , published by the Japanese Biocide and Fungicide Society, can be used for this purpose. The pH value of the wash water used in the processing of the photosensitive materials of invention is within the range from 4 to 9, and preferably within the range from 5 to 8. The wash water temperature and the washing time can be set variously according to the nature of the photosensitive material and the application etc. but, in general, washing conditions of from 20 seconds to 10 minutes at a temperature of from 15 to 45°C, and preferably of from 30 seconds to 5 minutes at a temperature of from 25 to 40°C, are selected. Moreover, the photosensitive materials of this invention can be processed directly in a stabilizing bath instead of being subjected to a water wash as described above. The known methods disclosed in JP-A-57-8543, JP-A-58-14834 and JP-A-60-220345 can all be used for this purpose. Furthermore, there are cases in which a stabilization process is carried out following the water washing process, and the stabilizing baths which contain formalin and surfactant which are used as a final bath for color photosensitive materials used for photographic purposes are an example of such a process. Various chelating agents and fungicides can be added to these stabilizing baths. The overflow which accompanies replenishment of the above mentioned wash water and/or stabilizer can be re-used in other processes such as the desilvering process. A color developing agents may also be incorporated into the silver halide color photosensitive materials of this invention in order to simplify and speed-up processing. The incorporation of various color developing agent precursors is preferred. For example, the indoaniline based compounds disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,342,597, the Schiff's base type compounds disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,342,599 and in Research Disclosure , Nos. 14,850 and 15,159, the aldol compounds disclosed in Research Disclosure , No. 13,924, the metal salt complexes disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,719,492, and the urethane based compounds disclosed in JP-A-53-135628 can be used for this purpose. Various 1-phenyl-3-pyrazolidones can be incorporated, as required, into the silver halide color photosensitive materials of this invention with a view to accelerate color development. Typical compounds of this type have been disclosed in JP-A-56-64339, JP-A-57-144547 and JP-A-58-115438. The various processing baths are used at a temperature of from 10 to 50°C in this invention. The standard temperature is normally from 33 to 38°C, but processing is accelerated and the processing time is shortened at higher temperatures and, conversely, increased picture quality and improved stability of the processing baths can be achieved at lower temperatures. Furthermore, processes using hydrogen peroxide intensification or cobalt intensification as disclosed in West German Patent 2,226,770 or U.S. Patent 3,674,499 can be carried out in order to economize on silver in the photosensitive material. Furthermore, silver halide photosensitive materials of this invention can also be used as heat developable photosensitive materials as disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,500,626, JP-A-60-133449, JP-A-59-218443 and JP-A-61-238056, and in European Patent 210,660A2. Color diffusion transfer photosensitive materials are another embodiment of the color photosensitive materials of this invention, including those described on pages 366 to 372 of The Theory of the Photographic Process (4th Edition) by James. A photosensitive layer consisting of a silver halide emulsion layer which contains dye image forming substances, and an image receiving layer are included as the essential layers in the color diffusion transfer photosensitive materials of this invention, and other layers, such as layers which have a neutralizing function, light shielding layers, intermediate layers, protective layers, and peeling layers for facilitating the peeling off of the useless parts after processing can be included, as required. A dispersion of a hydroquinone represented by the general formula (I) and a polymer represented by the general formula (II) can be included at any location in the photosensitive material, according to its intended purpose. In one example, the dispersion is added as an anti-color turbidity agent to an intermediate layer, as described in Research Disclosure, No. 15162 (1976). In this case, the amount of the hydroquinone compound represented by the general formula (I) added to the intermediate layer is within the range from 0.1 to 10 mmol/m 2 , and preferably within the range from 0.3 to 5 mmol/m 2 , and the amount of the polymer represented by the general formula (II) used is within the range from 0.1 to 20 g per g of hydroquinone compound, and preferably within the range from 0.1 to 10 g, per g of hydroquinone compound. In another example, the dispersion is added to layers which are close to the emulsion layers (e.g., an adjacent layer, an adjacent layer to the adjacent layer) with a view to reducing the minimum density and raising the maximum density of the photograph. In this case the amount of the hydroquinone compound represented by the general formula (I) which is added is normally within the range from 0.001 to 0.1 mmol/m 2 , and preferably within the range from 0.003 to 0.05 mmol/m 2 , and the polymer represented by the general formula (II) is used at a rate within the range from 0.1 to 30 g, and preferably within the range from 0.3 to 7 g, per g of hydroquinone compound. (1) Dye Image Forming Substances The dye image forming substances used in this invention are non-diffusible compounds which release diffusible dyes (these may be dye precursors) or the diffusion properties of which are changed in the course of silver development, and such substances have been described in the fourth edition of The Theory of the Photographic Process . All of these compounds can be represented by the general formula (A) DYE-Y wherein Dye represents a dye or a dye precursor, and Y represents a component which provides a compound which imparts different diffusion properties to the compound under alkaline conditions. The function of Y can be broadly classified as that of a negative type compound which becomes diffusible in the developed silver parts or that of a positive type which becomes diffusible in the undeveloped parts. Specific examples of negative type Y components include those which are oxidized, undergo cleavage and release a diffusible dye during development. Specific examples of Y have been disclosed in U.S. Patents 3,928,312, 3,993,638, 4,076,529, 4,152,153, 4,055,428, 4,053,312, 4,198,235, 4,179,291, 4,149,892, 3,844,785, 3,443,943, 3,751,406, 3,443,939, 3,443,940, 3,628,952, 3,980,479, 4,183,753, 4,142,891, 4,278,750, 4,139,379, 4,218,368, 3,421,964, 4,199,355, 4,199,354, 4,135,929, 4,336,322 and 4,139,389, and in JP-A-53-50736, JP-A-51-104343, JP-A-54-130122, JP-A-53-110827, JP-A-56-12642, JP-A-56-16131, JP-A-57-4043, JP-A-57-650, JP-A-57-20753, JP-A-53-69033, JP-A-54-130927, JP-56-164342 and JP-A-57-119345. N-substituted sulfamoyl groups (with groups derived from an aromatic hydrocarbonyl ring or a heterocyclic ring as the N-substituent group) are preferred as Y groups for the negative type dye releasing redox compounds. Typical examples of such groups for Y are indicated below, Disclosures concerning positive type compounds have been made in Angev. Chem., Intl. Ed., (English) , 22, 191 (1982). Specific examples include compounds (dye developers) which are initially diffusible under alkaline conditions but which are oxidized by development and rendered fast to diffusion. Typical examples of useful Y components for compounds of this type have been described in U.S. Patent 2,983,606. Furthermore, there are compounds of another type which release diffusible dyes on undergoing spontaneous ring closure under alkaline conditions. Specific examples of Y groups which have such a function have been disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,980,479, in JF-A-53-69033 and JP-A-54-130927, and in U.S. Patents 3,421,964 and 4,199,355. Furthermore, there are also compounds of another type which do not themselves release a dye but which release a dye when reduced. Compounds of this type are used in combination with an electron donor and they are able to release a diffusible dye in the form of an image by reaction with the residual electron donor which has been oxidized in the form of the image by silver development. Atomic groups which have such a function have been disclosed, for example, in U.S. Patents 4,183,753, 4,142,891, 4,278,750, 4,139,379 and 4,218,368, in JP-A-53-110827, in U.S. Patents 4,278,750, 4,356,249 and 4,358,525, in JP-A-53-110827, JP-A-54-130927 and JP-A-56-164342, in Kokai Giho 87-6199, and in European Patent 220,746A2. Specific examples are indicated below, In cases where compounds of this type are used, they are preferably used in combination with a non-diffusible electron donor (commonly know as an ED compound) or precursor thereof. Examples of ED compounds have been disclosed, for example, in U.S. Patents 4,263,393 and 4,278,750, and in JP-A-56-138736. Furthermore, the compounds indicated below can be used as examples of another type of dye image forming substance. (In these formulae, DYE signifies a dye or a dye precursor as described earlier.) These compounds have been disclosed in U.S. Patents 3,719,489 and 4,098,783. On the other hand, typical examples of the dyes represented by DYE in these formulae have been disclosed in the literature as indicated below. Examples of Yellow Dyes: Examples of yellow dyes have been disclosed in U.S. Patents 3,597,200, 3,309,199, 4,013,633, 4,245,028, 4,156,609, 4,139,383, 4,195,992, 4,148,641, 4,148,643 and 4,336,322, in JP-A-51-114930 and JP-A-56-71072, and in Research Disclosure , 17630 (1978) and Research Disclosure , 16475 (1977). Examples of Magenta Dyes: Examples of magenta dyes have been disclosed in U.S. Patents 3,453,107, 3,544,545, 3,932,380, 3,931,144, 3,932,308, 3,954,476, 4,233,237, 4,255,509, 4,250246, 4,142,891, 4,207,104 and 4,287,292, and in JP-A-52-106727, JP-A-53-23628, JP-A-55-36804, JP-A-56-73057, JP-A-56-71060 and JP-A-55-134. Examples of Cyan Dyes: Examples of Cyan dyes have been disclosed in U.S. Patents 3,482,972, 3,929,760, 4,013,635, 4,268,625, 4,171,220, 4,242,435, 4,142,891, 4,195,994, 4,147,544 and 4,148,642, in British Patent 1,551,138, in JP-A-54-99431, JP-A-52-8827, JP-A-53-47823, JP-A-53-143323, JP-A-54-99431 and JP-A-56-71061, in European Patents 53,037B and 53,040B, and in Research Disclosure , Nos. 17630 (1978) and 16475 (1977). (2) The Silver Halide Emulsion The silver halide emulsion used in the invention may be a negative type emulsion in which the latent image is formed principally on the surface of the silver halide grains, or it may be a direct positive emulsion of the internal latent image type in which the latent image is formed within the silver halide grains. "Conversion type" emulsions in which use is made of the difference in solubility of silver halides, or "core/shell type" emulsions, in which at least photosensitive sites of core grains of silver halide which have been doped with metal ions, chemically sensitized or subjected to both metal doping and chemical sensitization, are covered with an outer shell of silver halide can be used as internal latent image type direct positive emulsions, and such emulsions have been disclosed in U.S. Patents 2,592,250 and 3,206,313, in British Patent 1,027,146, in U.S. Patents 3,761,276, 3,935,014, 3,447,927, 2,497,875, 2,563,785, 3,551,662 and 4,395,478, in West German Patent Application (OLS) No. 2,728,108, and in U.S. Patent 4,431,730. Furthermore, fogging nuclei must be provided on the surface of the grains using light or a nucleating agent after the imagewise exposure in cases where an internal latent image type direct positive emulsion is used. Compounds which can be used as nucleating agents for this purpose include the hydrazines disclosed in U.S. Patents 2,563,785 and 2,588,982, the hydrazides and hydrazones disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,227,552, the heterocyclic quaternary salt compounds disclosed in British Patent 1,283,835, JP-A-52-69613 and in U.S. Patents 3,615,615, 3,719,494, 3,734,738, 4,094,683 and 4,115,122, the sensitizing dyes which have a substituent group which has a nucleating action within the dye molecule as disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,718,470, the thiourea bond type acylhydrazine based compounds disclosed in U.S. Patents 4,030,925, 4,031,127, 4,245,037, 4,255,511, 4,266,013 and 4,276,364, and in British Patent 2,012,443, and the acylhydrazine based compounds which have a thioamido ring or a heterocyclic group such as a triazole or a tetrazole ring bonded as an absorbing group, as disclosed in U.S. Patents 4,080,270 and 4,278,748, and in British Patent 2,011,391B. Spectrally sensitizing dyes are used in combination with these negative type emulsions and internal latent image type direct positive emulsions in this invention. Examples have been disclosed in JP-A-59-180550 and JP-A-60-140335, Research Disclosure , No. 17029, U.S. Patents 1,846,300, 2,078,233, 2,089,129, 2,165,338, 2,231,658, 2,917,516, 3,352,857, 3,411,916, 2,295,276, 2,481,698, 2,688,545,, 2,921,067, 3,282,933, 3,397,060, 3,660,103, 3,335,010, 3,352,680, 3,384,486, 3,623,881, 3,718,470 and 4,025,349. (3) Photosensitive Material Layer Structure At least two photosensitive layers consisting of emulsions which have been spectrally sensitized with the above mentioned spectrally sensitizing dyes (in combination with the abovementioned dye image forming substances which provide dyes which absorb light selectively in the same wavelength region) are used to reproduce natural colors using the substractive color process. The emulsions and the dye image forming substances can be coated on top of one another in separate layers or they may be mixed together and coated as a single layer. In cases where the dye image forming substance, in the coated form, has an absorbance in the spectrally sensitive region of the emulsion with which it is combined, the emulsion and the dye image forming substance are preferably coated in separate layers. The emulsion layers can consist of a plurality of emulsion layers which have different speeds and an optional layer may be established between the emulsion layer and the dye image forming substance layer. For example, a layer which contains a nucleation development accelerator as disclosed in JP-A-60-173541, or a spacing layer as disclosed in JP-B-60-15267 can be established in this position to increase the colored image density, or a reflective layer as disclosed in JP-A-60-91354 can be established to increase the sensitivity of the sensitive element. The preferred multi-layer structure has a sequential arrangement from the side which is exposed to light consisting of a unit which includes a blue sensitive emulsion, a unit which includes a green sensitive emulsion, and a unit which includes a red sensitive emulsion. Other layers may be present, as required, between these emulsion units. The provision of intermediate layers is especially desirable for preventing the results of the development of a certain layer having an undesirable effect on some other emulsion layer unit. The intermediate layers, in cases where a developing agent is used in combination with a non-diffusible colored image forming substance, preferably contains a non-diffusible reducing agent for preventing the diffusion of the oxidized form of the developing agent. Examples include non-diffusible hydroquinones, sulfonamidophenols and sulfonamidonaphthols, and examples have been disclosed in JP-B-50-21249 and JP-B-50-23813, in JP-A-49-106329, and JP-A-49-129535, in U.S. Patents 2,336,327, 2,360,290, 2,403,721, 2,544,640, 2,732,300, 2,782,659, 2,937,086, 3,637,393 and 3,700,453, in British Patent 557,750, and in JP-A-57-24941 and JP-A-58-21249. The dispersion method has been disclosed in JP-A-60-238831 and JP-B-60-18978. In cases where the dispersion consisting of a combination of compound (I) and compound (II) is used in another layer, a dispersion of these known reducing agents may be used in an intermediate layer but, as mentioned earlier, the use of a dispersion of the hydroquinone represented by compound (I) in a polymer represented by the compound (II) is preferred for markedly increasing the stability with the passage of time of the photosensitive material. In cases where compounds which release a diffusible dye with silver ions as disclosed in JP-B-55-7576 are used, a compound which replenishes silver ionS is preferably included in the intermediate layer. Anti-irradiation layers, spacing layers, and protective layers may be coated, as required, in this invention. (4) Processing Composition The processing composition used in this embodiment of the invention is uniformly spread over, or impregnated into, the photosensitive element after exposure, and the development of the photosensitive layer is carried out by the components included in this composition. It may also have the function of shielding the photosensitive layer completely from external light, being provided, as required, on the back of the support or opposing a light shielding layer which is on the opposite side of the photosensitive layer from the processing liquid. Alkalis and developing agents, development accelerators and development inhibitors for adjusting development, antioxidants for preventing the deterioration of the developing agent and, as required, viscosity increasing agents and light shielding agents are included in these compositions. The alkali is provided to adjust the pH of the liquid to 10 to 14, and the alkali may be the hydroxide of an alkali metal (for example sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, lithium hydroxide), an alkali metal phosphate (for example potassium phosphate), a guanidine, a quaternary amine hydroxide (for example tetramethylammonium hydroxide), and of these alkalis the use of potassium hydroxide and sodium hydroxide is preferred. Examples of viscosity increasing agents include poly(vinyl alcohol), hydroxymethylcellulose, and alkali metal salts of carboxymethylcellulose, and the use of hydroxyethylcellulose and sodium carboxymethylcellulose is preferred. All dyes and pigments can be used as light shielding agents provided that they do not diffuse into the dye image receiving layer and cause staining, and combinations of such dyes and pigments can be used. Carbon black is a typical light shielding agent, but titanium white and dye combinations can also be used for this purpose. Temporary light shielding dyes which become colorless after a fixed period of time during processing can also be used as light shielding dyes. All developing agents can be used provided that they do not cause staining even when oxidized. Developing agents of this type can be used individually or two or more types can be used conjointly, and precursor types can also be used. These developing agents may be included in an appropriate layer of the photosensitive element or they may be included in the alkaline processing liquid. Specific compounds include the aminophenols and the pyrazolidinones, and of these the pyrazolidinones are preferred since they give rise to little staining. Examples include 1-phenyl-3-pyrazolidinone, 1-p-tolyl-4,4-dihydroxymethyl-3-pyrazolidinone, 1-(3'-methylphenyl)-4-methyl-4-hydroxymethyl-3-pyrazolidinone, 1-phenyl-4-methyl-4-hydroxymethyl-3-pyrazolidinone, and 1-p-tolyl-4-methyl-4-hydroxymethyl-3-pyrazoloidinone. (5) Dye Image Receiving Layers The dye image receiving layers used in this invention contain a mordant in a hydrophillic colloid. The dye image receiving layer may be a single layer or it may have a multi-layer construction in which mordants which have different mordanting capacities are coated in the form of a laminate. Such layers have been disclosed in JP-A-61-252551. The use of polymeric mordants is preferred. The polymeric mordants which can be used in the invention include polymers which contain secondary or tertiary amino groups, polymers which have nitrogen containing heterocyclic groups and polymers which contain quaternary cations thereof, and those which have a molecular weight of at least 5,000 are preferred while those which have a molecular weight of at least 10,000 are especially prefered. For example, the vinylpyridine polymers and vinyl pyridinium cation polymers disclosed in the specifications of U.S. Patents 2,548,564, 2,484,430, 3,148,061 and 3,756,814; the vinyl imidazolium cation polymers disclosed in the specification of U.S. Patent 4,124,386; the polymeric mordants which can crosslink with gelatin as disclosed in the specifications of U.S. Patents 3,625,694, 3,859,096 and 4,128,538 and in British Patent 1,277,453; the aqueous sol mordants disclosed in the specifications of U.S. Patents 3,958,995, 2,721,852 and 2,798,063, and in JP A-54-115228, JP-A-54-145529, JP-A-54-126027, and JP-A-54-155835 and JP-A-56-17352; the water insoluble mordants disclosed in the specification of U.S. Patent 3,898,088; the reactive mordants which can form covalent bonds with dyes as disclosed in the specifications of U.S. Patents 4,168,976 and 4,201,840, ; and the mordants disclosed in the specifications of U.S. Patents 3,709,690, 3,788,855, 3,642,482, 3,488,706, 3,557,066, 3,271,147 and 3,271,148, in JP-A-53-30328, JP-A-52-155528, JP-A-53-125, JP-A-53-1024 and JP-A-53-107835, and in British Patent 2,064,802 can be used for this purpose. The mordants disclosed in the specifications of U.S. Patents 2,675,316 and 2,882,156 can also be used for this purpose. (6) Layers Which Have a Neutralizing Function The layers which have a neutralizing function used in the invention are layers which contain a sufficient quantity of an acidic substance to neutralize the alkali which is carried over from the processing composition and, as required, these layers may have a multi-layer construction consisting of neutralization speed controlling layers (timing layers) and adhesion reinforcing layers. The preferred acidic substances contain an acidic group of pKa at least 9 (or a precursor group which provides such an acidic group on hydrolysis), and the more preferred substances include the higher fatty acids disclosed in U.S. Patent 2,983,606, and polymers of acrylic acid, methacrylic acid or maleic acid and the partial esters or anhydrides thereof, such as those disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,362,816; the acrylic acid-acrylic acid ester copolymers disclosed in French Patent 2,290,699, and the acidic polymers of the latex type as disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,139,383 and in Research Disclosure , No. 16102 (1977). Other acidic substances have been disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,088,493, and in JP-A-52-153739, JP-A-53-1023, JP-A-53-4540, JP-A-53-4541, and JP-A-53-4542. Examples of acidic polymers include copolymers of ethylene and vinyl monomers such as vinyl acetate, vinyl methyl ether with maleic anhydride and n-butyl esters thereof; copolymers of butyl acrylate and acrylic acid, and cellulose acetate hydrodiene phthalate. The aforementioned acidic polymers can be mixed with, and used with, hydrophilic polymers. Polymers of this type include polyacrylamide, polymethylpyrrolidone, poly(vinyl alcohol) (including partially saponified polymers), carboxymethylcellulose, hydroxymethylcellulose, hydroxyethylcellulose, poly(methyl vinyl ether). Of these, the use of poly(vinyl alcohol) is preferred. The amount of the acidic polymer coated is determined by the amount of alkali which is being spread over the photosensitive element. The equivalent ratio of acidic polymer and alkali per unit area is preferably from 0.9 to 2.0. If the amount of acidic polymer used is too small then the hue of the transfer element may vary and staining may occur in the white base parts, and if too much is used then changes may occur in the hue and there is a further problem in that light fastness is reduced. The more desirable equivalent ratio is from 1.0 to 1.3. The quality of the photograph is reduced if either too much or too little of the admixed hydrophilic polymer is used. The ratio by weight of the hydrophilic polymer and the acidic polymer is within the range from 0.1 to 10, and preferably within the range from 0.3 to 3.0. Additives for various purposes can be incorporated into the layer which has a neutralizing function in this invention. For example, film hardening agents well known to those in the industry can be added for hardening the film of this layer, and polyhydric hydroxyl compounds such as poly(ethylene glycol), poly(propylene glycol), and glycerine, can be added to improve the brittleness of the film. Moreover, antioxidants, fluorescent whiteners, and dyes such as ultramarine, can also be added, as required. The timing layers which are used in combination with neutralizing layers consist of a polymer which has a low alkali permeability, such as gelatin, poly(vinyl alcohol), partially acetalated poly(vinyl alcohol), cellulose acetate, a partially hydrolyzed poly(vinyl acetate); latex polymers which have a high activation energy for alkali permeation made by copolymerizing small amount of hydrophilic comonomers such as acrylic acid monomer; or polymers which have a lactone ring. Of these, the timing layers in which cellulose acetate is used as disclosed in JP-A-54-136328 and in U.S. Patents 4,267,262, 4,009,030 and 4,029,849, the latex polymers made by copolymerization with a small amount of hydrophilic copolymer such as acrylic acid as disclosed in JP-A-54-128335, JP-A-56-69629 and JP-A-57-6843, and in U.S. Patents 4,056,394, 4,061,496, 4,199,362, 4,250,243, 4,256,827 and 4,268,604; polymers which have iactcne rings as disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,229,516; and the other polymers disclosed in JP-A-56-25735, JP-A-56-97346 and JP-A-57-6842, and in European Patent 31,957A1, 37,724A1 and 48,412A1 are especially useful. Other materials which have been cited in the publications indicated below can also be used: U.S. Patents 3,421,893, 3,455,686, 3,575,701, 3,778,265, 3,785,815, 3,847,615, 4,088,493, 4,123,275, 4,148,653, 4,201,587, 4,288,523 and 4,297,431, West German Patent Application (OLS) Nos. 1,622,936 and 2,162,277, and Research Disclosure , 15162, No. 151 (1976). The timing layers in which these materials are used may be a single layer, or two or more layers can be used conjointly. The development inhibitors and/or precursors thereof disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,009,029, in West German Patent Application (OLS) Nos. 2,913,164, and 3,014,672, and in JP-A-54-155837 and JP-A-55-138745, the hydroquinone precursors disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,201,578, and other photographically useful additives or precursors thereof can be incorporated, for example, in the timing layers consisting of these materials. (7) Light Shielding Layers In this invention, processing can be carried out in daylight by shielding the photosensitive layer from external light completely during the development process with light shielding layers within the photosensitive element or by means of a light shielding layer and a light shielding processing liquid which is spread over the photosensitive element during processing. In practice, a layer which contains a light shielding agent can be coated on the back of the support or between the emulsion layer and the support, or a layer which contains a light shielding agent can be provided in the support. Any material which has a light shielding function can be used as a light shielding agent, but the use of carbon black is preferred. Any binder in which carbon black can be dispersed can be used as the binder for coating the light shielding agent, and the use of gelatin is preferred. (8) Peeling Layer In one embodiment of the color diffusion transfer photosensitive materials of this invention a peeling layer is established between the dye image receiving layer and the emulsion layers which contain the dye image forming substances, and the emulsion layer can be peeled away after processing. Hence, in the unprocessed state the peeling layer must maintain the adhesion between the image receiving layer and the emulsion layer and it must be such that peeling apart can be achieved easily after processing. The materials disclosed, for example, in JP-A-47-8237, JP-A-59-202727, JP-A-59-229555, and JP-A-49-4653, in U.S. Patents 3,220,835 and 4,359,518, in JP-A-59-4334, JP-A-56-65133 and JP-A-45-24075, and in U.S. Patents 3,227,550, 2,759,825, 4,401,746 and 4,366,227, can be used for this purpose. Water soluble (or alkali soluble) cellulose derivatives are examples of such materials. For example, use can be made of hydroxyethylcellulose, cellulose acetate phthalate, plasticized methyl cellulose, ethyl cellulose, cellulose nitrate, and carboxymethylcellulose. Alternatively, use can be made of various natural macromolecular materials, such as for example, alginic acid, pectin, and gum arabic. Various modified gelatins, for example acetylated gelatin, phthalated gelatin, can also be used. Moreover, another alternative is to use water soluble synthetic polymers. Examples of such polymers include poly(vinyl alcohol), poly(methylacrylate), poly(methyl methacrylate), poly(butyl methacrylate), or copolymers of these materials. The peeling layer may consist of a single layer or it may consist of a plurality of layers, and examples have been disclosed in JP-A-59-220727 and JP-A-60-60642. In the color diffusion transfer method used this invention the photosensitive layer can be coated on the same support on which the image receiving layer has been coated, or the two layers may be coated on separate supports. Furthermore, the supports which include these photosensitive layers and image receiving layers may be combined in a unified film unit, or they may be provided separately, in which case they are laminated together at the time of development and processing. The photosensitive layer and the image receiving layer may be left in a unified form after development and processing, or the photosensitive layer may be separated from the image receiving layer after processing. The processing fluid may be packed into a processing liquid pod and spread out uniformly over the photosensitive layer using a pressure part after exposure, or the sheet which contains the photosensitive layer may be moistened with the processing liquid so as to impregnate the photosensitive layer. In a typical embodiment of a unified type film unit, the above mentioned dye image receiving layer and the silver halide photographic emulsion layer in which the dye releasing redox compounds are combined are laminated onto a single transparent support, and a white reflecting layer which contains a solid pigment such as titanium oxide is coated between the image receiving layer and the silver halide layer or the dye releasing redox compound containing layer. In such an embodiment there is no need to peel off the image receiving layer after completion of the transfer picture, as the transfer image can be viewed through the transparent support. A light shielding layer may also be provided between the white reflecting layer and the photosensitive silver halide layer so that the development processing can be completed in the dark. Furthermore, a peeling layer may be established at a suitable position so that all or part of the photosensitive element can be peeled away from the image receiving element, as required (such embodiments have been disclosed, for example, in JP-A-56-67840 and in Canadian Patent 674,082). Furthermore, with separate non-peeling type unified film units the image receiving element is coated onto one transparent support and a processing liquid which contains a white pigment is coated between this and a separate sheet on which the photosensitive element has been coated. Embodiments in which an image receiving element, a white reflecting layer, a peeling layer and a photosensitive element have been laminated onto the same support, so that the photosensitive element may be peeled away from the image receiving element, have been disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,730,718. Moreover, the use of a unified film unit consisting of a photosensitive element which has a sequence of at least (a) a dye image receiving layer, (b) a peeling layer and (c) at least one silver halide emulsion layer in which a dye releasing redox compound is included, an alkali processing composition which contains an agent which renders it non-transparent, and a transparent cover sheet, on a white support, and from which the unwanted parts above the peeling layer are removed to leave the image receiving layer on the white support after processing is preferred in this invention. Furthermore, embodiments of the peel apart type in which a photosensitive sheet for which at least a photosensitive layer has been coated on a support is laminated, after exposure, on a separate support which have been coated with an image receiving layer, an alkaline processing composition being spread between the layers, and in which the image receiving sheet is peeled away after development processing can also be used. Another useful embodiment of a photosensitive material is that in which the photosensitive sheet obtained by coating a photosensitive layer onto a transparent support, establishing a white reflecting layer over the top, and laminating an image receiving layer on the top of this is, after exposure, moistened with developing liquid. The image receiving layer is viewed with the white support as a background. Heat developable photosensitive elements used in this invention include those which contain photosensitive silver halides, binders, dye donating compounds and reducing agents (in some cases the dye donating compounds are also reducing agents) and, moreover, they may contain an organic silver salt, as required. These components are often added to the same layer, but they may be added to separate layers provided that a reaction can occur. For example, the presence of a colored dye donating compound in a layer below the silver halide emulsion prevents any loss of speed. A combination of least three silver halide emulsion layers which are sensitive to different regions of the spectrum are used in order to obtain a wide range of colors on the chromaticity diagram using the three primary colors yellow, magenta and cyan. For example, combinations of a blue sensitive layer, a green sensitive layer and a red sensitive layer; or a combination of a green sensitive layer, a red sensitive layer and an infrared sensitive layer, can be used. The photosensitive layers can be arranged in the various known sequences used for conventional color photosensitive materials. Furthermore, each of the photosensitive layers may be divided, as required, into two or more layers. Various auxiliary layers, such as protective layers, undercoating layers, intermediate layers, yellow filter layers, anti-halation layers, and backing layers, can be established in a heat developable photosensitive element. Any of the silver halides, namely silver chloride, silver bromide or silver chlorobromide, silver chloroiodide, silver iodobromide or silver chloroiodobromide, can be used in this invention. The silver halide emulsions used in the invention may be surface latent image type emulsions or internal latent image type emulsions. Internal latent image type emulsions can be combined with nucleating agents or light fogging and used as direct reversal emulsions. Furthermore, core/shell emulsions in which the interior of the grain and the grain surface layer consist of different phases can be used. No particular limitations are imposed upon the degree of dispersion of the silver halide emulsion, crystal habit, grain size, or the method of chemical sensitization etc. The coated weight of photosensitive silver halide used in the invention is within the range, calculated as silver, of from 1 mg to 10 g/m 2 . Organic silver salts can be used conjointly as oxidizing agents with the photosensitive silver halides in this invention. In such a case the photosensitive in silver halide and the organic silver salt must be in a state of contact or in close proximity. The organic silver salts are used at a rate of from 0.01 to 10 mol, and preferably at a rate of from 0.10 to 1 mol, per mol of photosensitive silver halide. The total coated weight of photosensitive silver halide and organic silver salt, calculated as silver, is suitably within the range from 50 mg to 10 g/m 2 . Various anti-fogging agents or photographic stabilizers can be used in this invention. The silver halides used in the invention may be spectrally sensitized using methine dyes or other dyes. The sensitizing dyes may be used in combinations to achieve strong color sensitization. Furthermore, combinations with compounds other than spectrally sensitizing dyes can be used to achieve strong color sensitization. The amount of sensitizing dye added is generally on the order of from 10 -8 to 10 -2 mol per mol of silver halide. The use of hydrophilic binders is preferred in heat developable photosensitive elements of this invention. Transparent or semi-transparent hydrophilic binders include, for example, natural products such as proteins, such as gelatin and gelatin derivatives, or sugars such as cellulose derivatives, starch, gum arabic, and synthetic polymeric materials such as water soluble polyvinyl compounds, such as poly(vinyl alcohol), polyvinylpyrrolidone, partially saponified copolymers of vinyl alcohol and acrylic acid, and acrylamide polymers. Combinations of two or more types of these binders can be used. Furthermore, these binders can be added and used in the form of a latex, and dispersed vinyl compounds can be used to provide dimensional stability in the photographic material. The coated weight of the binders in this invention is preferably not more than 20 g/m 2 , and more desirably the coated weight is not more than 10 g/m 2 , and their use at a coated weight of not more than 7 g/m 2 is most desirable. Examples of dye donating compounds which can be used in the invention include first of all the compounds (couplers) which form dyes by an oxidative coupling reaction. These couplers may be of the four-equivalent type or of the two-equivalent type. Furthermore, the two-equivalent couplers (including polymeric couplers) which have groups which are fast to diffusion on the elimination group and which form a diffusible dye by means of an oxidative coupling reaction are preferred. Furthermore, the compounds which have the function of releasing and dispersing a dispersible dye in an imagewise manner can be cited as another example of dye donating substances. Compounds of this type can be represented by the following general formula (LI) (Dye-X) n-Y wherein Dye represents a dye group, a dye group which has been temporarily shifted to a short wavelength, or a dye precursor group; X represents a simple bond or a divalent linking group; Y represents a group which provides a difference in the diffusion properties of the compound (Dye-X) n-Y , or releases Dye and produces a difference in the dispersion properties of the released Dye and (Dye-X) n-Y , corresponding directly or inversely to the photosensitive silver salts which have an imagewise latent image; n represents 1 or 2, and when n is 2 then the two Dye-X units may be the same or different. Examples of dye donating substances which can be represented by the general formula (LI) include, for example, dye developing agents, non-diffusible compounds which release diffusible dyes by means of an intramolecular nucleophilic substitution reaction, non-diffusible compounds which release diffusible dyes by means of an intramorecular substitution reaction of an iso-oxazolone ring, non-difusible compounds which release diffusible dyes on reduction, as disclosed in U.S. Patents 4,503,137 and 4,559,290, in European Patent 220,746A, and in Kokai Giho 87-6199 (Vol. 12 to 22), non-diffusible compounds which release a diffusible dye on reaction with a base but with which essentially no dye release occurs on reaction with the oxidized form of a reducing agent (LDA compounds), non-diffusible compounds which are couplers which have a diffusible dye as an elimination group and which release the diffusible dye by means of a reaction with the oxidized form of a reducing agent (DDR couplers), and non-diffusible compounds which themselves have reducing properties and which release a diffusible dye when oxidized (DRR compounds). Moreover, dye-silver compounds in which a dye is bonded to an organic silver salt, and azo dyes which are used in the heat developable silver dye bleach method can be used as dye donating compounds as well as the above mentioned couplers and compounds of general formula (LI). Hydrophobic additives such as the above mentioned dye donating compounds and the image formation accelerators described hereinafter can be introduced into the layers of a photosensitive element using methods known in the industry, such as the oil protection method, the solid dispersion method and the polymer dispersion method. The reducing agents known in the field of heat developable photosensitive materials can be used in this invention. Furthermore, dye donating compounds which have reducing properties can also be included (in this case other reducing agents can be used conjointly). Furthermore, reducing agent precursors which themselves have no reducing properties but which acquire reducing properties as a result of the action of nucleophillic reagents or heat during the course of development can also be used. The amount of reducing agent added in this invention is from 0.10 to 20 mol, and more desirably from 0.1 to 10 mol, per mol of silver. Compounds which activate development and which, at the same time, stabilize the image can be used in the photosensitive elements in this invention. A dye fixing element can be used together with a photosensitive element in systems in which the image is formed by dye diffusion transfer. There are embodiments in which the dye fixing element and the photosensitive element are coated separately on separate supports, and embodiments in which the dye fixing layer and the photosensitive layer are coated on the same support. Column 57 of U.S. patent 4,500,626, for example, describes the relationship between he photosensitive element and the dye fixing element, the relationship to the supports, and the relationship to the white reflecting layers in this application. The dye fixing elements preferably used in the invention have at least one layer which contains a mordant and a binder. The mordants well known in the photographic field can be used for the mordant. Furthermore, polymeric compounds which have a high dye receptivity can also be used for this purpose. Auxiliary layers such as protective layers, peeling layers, and anti-curl layers, can be established, as required, in the dye fixing elements. The establishment of protective layers is especially useful. The same natural and synthetic polymer materials used as binders in the photosensitive elements can be used as binders in the structural layers of the dye fixing elements. Heat solvents, plasticizers, anti-color fading agents, ultraviolet absorbers, slip agents, matting agents, antioxidants, dispersed vinyl compounds for providing increased dimensional stability, surfactants, and fluorescent whiteners, can also be included in one, or in a plurality, of the structural layers of the photosensitive elements and dye fixing elements. Image formation accelerators can be used in the photosensitive elements and/or dye fixing elements in this invention. The image formation accelerators have the function of accelerating the redox reaction of silver salt oxidizing agent and reducing agents, accelerating the reactions such as the formation of a dye from a dye donating substance, the degradation of a dye or the release of a non-diffusible dye, and of accelerating the migration of the dyes from the photosensitive layer to the dye fixing layer, and they may be classified as bases or base precursors, nucleating compounds, high boiling point organic solvents (oils), heat solvents, surfactants, compounds which interact with silver or silver ions, according to their physical and chemical properties. However, this group of compounds generally have a composite function and they normally provide a number of the acceleration effects indicated above. Organic acids and the salts of bases which decarboxylate on heating, and compounds which release amines by means of an intramolecular nucleophilic substitution reaction, a Lossen rearrangement or a Beckmann rearrangement, can be used as base precursors. Moreover, compounds which produce bases electrolytically or by combination with compounds (called complex forming compounds) which can undergo a complex forming reaction with sparingly soluble metal compounds and the metal ions which form these sparingly soluble metal compounds can also be used as base precursors. In particular, the former is effective. The sparingly soluble metal compounds and complex forming compounds are usefully added to the photosensitive elements and the dye fixing elements respectively. Various development inhibitors can be added to the photosensitive elements and/or dye fixing elements used in this invention for obtaining a fixed picture quality irrespective of variations of the temperature during development and the processing time. Inorganic or organic film hardening agents can also be included in the structural layers (photographic emulsion layers, dye fixing layers) of the photosensitive elements and/or dye fixing elements used in this invention. The heating temperature in the heat development process can be between about 50°C and about 250°C, but the use of a developing temperature within the range from about 80°C to about 180°C is preferred. The dye diffusion transfer process may be carried out at the same time as heat development, or it may be carried out after completion of the heat development process. In the latter case, the heating temperature in the transfer process is that at which transfer can be achieved within the range from the temperature used in the heat development process to room temperature, but the use of a temperature of at least 50°C and up to a temperature about 10°C lower than the temperature during the heat development process is preferred. The transfer of the dyes can be achieved using heat alone, or dye transfer promoters can be used to accelerate the dye transfer. Furthermore, the methods in which the materials are heated in the presence of a small quantity of solvent (especially water) and in which development and transfer are carried out simultaneously or consecutively as described in detail in JP-A-59-218443 and JP-A-61-238056, can also be used. In this method the heating temperature is preferably at least 50°C but below the boiling point of the solvent. The methods in which these solvents are applied to the dye fixing element, to the photosensitive element, or to both of these elements can be used. The amount of solvents used is small being less than the amount of solvent corresponding to the maximum swelling volume of the whole coated layer (more precisely, an amount less than the amount obtained by subtracting the weight of the whole coated film from the weight of solvent corresponding to the maximum swelling volume of the whole coated film). The heating during the development and/or transfer processes can be achieved using a hot plate, an iron, or a hot roller, or alternatively the heating can be achieved by passing electricity through an electrically conductive layer which has been established within the photosensitive element or the dye fixing element. Any of the various types of heat developing apparatus can be used for processing the photographic elements of this invention. For example, use can be made of the apparatus disclosed in JP-A-59-75247, JP-A-59-177547, JP-A-59-181353 or JP-A-60-18951, or in JP-A-U-62-25944 (the term "JP-A-U" as used herein means an "unexamined published Japanese utility model application). The various additives disclosed in JP-A-62-253159 can be used in this invention, as summarized in the following table.

Furthermore, photosensitive sheet B was prepared in the same way as photosensitive sheet A except that compound I-(25) in layer (3) was replaced by compound I-(6) (0.65 g/m 2 ) and 0.35 g/m 2 of compound II-(1) was used, and photosensitive sheet C was prepared in the same way as photosensitive sheet A except that compound I-(24) (0.42 g/m 2 ) and compound II-(9) (0.4 g/m 2 ) were used. Furthermore, for reference, photosensitive sheet D was prepared by replacing compound II-(1) in photosensitive sheet A with tricyclohexyl phosphate in the same amount, photosensitive sheet E was prepared by replacing compound II-(1) in photosensitive sheet B with poly(methyl methacrylate) in the same amount, and photosensitive sheet F was prepared by replacing compound II-(9) in photosensitive sheet C with poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) in the same amount. These photosensitive sheets were left to stand for a fixed period of time under forced conditions and then exposed and laminated with an image receiving sheet in order to investigate stability with the passage of time of the photosensitive sheets. Next, the viscous processing liquid in a processing liquid pod was spread in a thickness of 65 µm between the above mentioned photosensitive sheets and image receiving sheets using a pressure roller.

In photosensitive elements A, B and C in which combinations of hydroquinone derivatives and polymers of the material of this invention were used, an adequate color density was obtained in each case and the anti-color mixing performance was satisfactory and there was a great improvement in the lowering of density with the passage of time.

An alkaline processing liquid containing a light shielding agent was then prepared as indicated below and this was packed into a processing liquid pod.

The above mentioned photosensitive sheet and the processing liquid pod were assembled with a transparent, undercoated polyethyleneterephthalate sheet as a cover sheet to form a unified unit as shown in figure 1. Discontinuous perforations as described in JP-A-56-67840 were formed in the support on the side to which the processing liquid pod had been fitted. For comparative purposes, a comparative photosensitive sheet was prepared in the same way except that poly(methyl methacrylate) (0.36 g/m 2 ) which is a known compound was used instead of the compound II-(1) in layer (11). These film units were exposed through the cover sheets and then passed between a pair of rollers to spread the processing liquid in the processing liquid pod uniformly between the photosensitive element and the cover sheet. Part E was strongly folded back and severed after 2 minutes, 1 hour or 1 day after processing and the cover sheet was peeled away. The part A in figure 1-(a) is the part over which the alkaline processing composition is spread, and this part was wet after processing. The part B is laminated with a spacer for ensuring that the processing liquid is spread at a constant thickness and so this part was not moistened by the processing liquid. After peeling the apart, the residual fraction of the photo-sensitive layer in the parts A and B were as shown in Table 2. Residual fraction of photosensitive layer adhering to the Image Receiving Layer After Peeling (Area, %) Peeling Time After Part A Part B 2 mins. 1 hour 1 day 2 min. 1 hour 1 day This Invention 0% 0% 0% 0% 0% 0% Comparative Example 0% 0% 10% 45% 45% 46% With the comparative photosensitive sheet, adhesion within the photosensitive layer was poor and some of the photosensitive layer was left behind on the image receiving sheet, particularly, in the unprocessed B part, and the print obtained was contaminated. With the photosensitive sheet of this invention peeling only occurred at the prescribed location (peeling layer) because adhesion was strong within the photosensitive layer and very satisfactory results were obtained.

Samples 107 to 117 Samples 107 to 117 which had tenth layer compositions as shown in Table 3 were prepared in the same way as described above. These samples were subjected to an imagewise exposure through a green filter (BPN-53, made by Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd.) after being left to stand (A) for 14 days at a temperature of 25°C, 60% relative humidity, or (B) for 14 days at a temperature of 45°C, 75% relative humidity, after which they were color developed and processed in the way indicated below. After processing, the samples were subjected to density measurements and the values obtained by substracting the yellow density at the exposure required to provide a magenta density of (fog+1.0) from the respective fog density was taken as the degree of color staining, and the results obtained were as shown in Table 3. The changes in the relative speed of the green sensitive layer under conditions B with respect to conditions A after leaving the samples to stand under conditions A and conditions B as described above following a white, imagewise exposure and then carrying out the color development processing described hereinafter were as shown in Table 3. The relative speed is indicated as the relative value of the reciprocal of the exposure required to provide a magenta density of (fog+0.2).

The compositions of each of the processing baths were as indicated below. Moreover, the replenishment rate of each processing bath was 1,200 ml/m 2 of color photosensitive material in the case of the color developer, and 800 ml/m 2 of color photosensitive material in all other cases, including the water wash. Farthermore, the carry over to the water wash process was 50 ml/m 2 of color photosensitive material.

It is clear from Table 3 that color staining was prevented under normal conditions with the samples which contained only a compound of general formula (I), but the anti-color staining capacity under forced conditions was quite small and there was a marked change in speed. However, in the samples in which a polymer of formula (II) was used in combination, the anti-color staining performance was considerable even under forced conditions and the change in the relative speed was slight.
