Description: The present invention relates to a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material, and more specifically to a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material capable of providing a dye image having excellent color reproducibility, sharpness and image fastness. A silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material has the characteristic that it has a high image quality and an excellent cost performance, and it is most widely used as a means for reproducing a color image. In order to further improve this characteristic of the silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material, a large number of investigations for increasing image quality has been conducted. In order to increase the image quality in a color print material, there are required for image quality performance, an excellent color reproduction of the color print obtained after a development processing, a sharp image having no blur (a high sharpness), and a visually inconspicuous dye cloud fine particle constituting the dye (an excellent graininess). It is a very important performance characteristic to provide a dye image which is fast to light, heat and humidity and is not faded for a long time. In recent years, the fastness of the dye image has been strikingly improved and it has been possible to store a color print for a long time. Meanwhile, in seeking to increase the image quality in a color photographing material, a large number of efforts have been made for improving sharpness and graininess, and a color negative film capable of providing a high sensitive and sharp negative image has come to be presented. Under such circumstances, it is anticipated that in the future improvement in the sharpness of a color paper will become more and more important from the viewpoint of the improvement in the quality of a color print finally obtained. Meanwhile, in order to obtain an image having a high sharpness, a measure is required to be taken so that light for an exposure is not spread over a wide range on a print face to generate fading. There are known as the method for the prevention of this spreading, a method in which a water soluble dye is used in order to prevent irradiation generated on an emulsion layer provided on a reflection type support, a method in which a coloring layer (AH) is provided in order to prevent halation, and a method in which reflection rate is raised in the vicinity of a surface on a reflection type support in order to prevent a blur in the support. Of these methods, there is described in JP-A-3-156439 (the term "JP-A" as used herein means an unexamined published Japanese patent application) as the method for preventing a blur, the method in which a white pigment is incorporated into a waterproof resin layer covering a reflection type support in the proportion of 14% or more. Further, there is described in JP-A-57-64235 and JP-A-62-187846, the method in which a hydrophilic colloid layer containing a white pigment is provided between a support and a silver halide emulsion layer. However, there have still been left in these methods in which a white pigment is used, the problem that the background is yellowed during storage over a long period of time after processing, and the problem that the discoloring or fading of a dye image is accelerated. Further, also in the methods in which there is provided a coloring layer in which a water soluble dye and colloidal silver are used, the increase in the amount thereof in order to obtain a higher sharpness causes a residual color on the background after processing and generates discoloring and fading on the background or dye image due to aging, and thus still necessitates an improvement therein. The color image-forming method most generally used in a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material is the method in which an oxidized aromatic primary amine series color developing agent is reacted with a coupler using exposed silver halide as an oxidizing agent to form indophenol, indoaniline, indamine, azomethine, phenoxazine, phenazine, and dyes equivalent thereto. In such a system, the method in which a color image is reproduced by a subtractive color process is used and generally, the amounts of the three color dyes formed of yellow, magenta and cyan are changed to form the color image. Of them, a pivaloyl type yellow coupler and a benzoyl type yellow coupler have most generally been used as a yellow coupler. The former has the defect that color developing performance is low while the fastness of a dye image formed is excellent, and it is so limited that it can not meet the requirements for rapid processing and low replenishing during processing, which is strongly required in recent years. Further, it has not yet reached a sufficiently satisfactory level in terms of the hue of a dye formed. Meanwhile, the latter has the serious problem that while it has a high color developing performance, it has a further worse hue of the dye formed and a very low fastness of the dye image. In the coupler for a color print, a serious consideration is placed on the hue and fastness of the dye formed, and therefore the pivaloyl type yellow coupler is generally used. However, the pivaloyl type yellow coupler also has not yet reached a sufficiently satisfactory level in terms of hue, and thus a further improvement is desired. In order to improve the color reproduction performance of the color print, attention has been given to the pivaloylacetanilide type coupler having an alkoxy group at the 6-position of an anilide ring. While this coupler is certainly improved to some extent in terms of the color reproduction performance, a problem still remains in terms of the fastness of a dye image. The problem common to the pivaloyl type couplers is the insufficient image fastness under the condition of a high humidity. Further, it has a problem as well in terms of a light fastness after it is left under a high humidity. As the color print is stored in an environment in which light, heat and humidity are changed, the evaluation of an actual fastness is a difficult subject and it is required to be checked under various conditions. Further, in recent years, there are proposed for improvement in color reproduction performance and a color development performance, the acylacetoamide type yellow coupler having a 3- to 5-membered cyclic structure, described in European Patent EP 0,447,969Al, the malondianilide type yellow coupler having a cyclic structure, described in European Patent EP 0,482,552Al, and the acylacetoanilide type yellow coupler having a dioxane structure, described in U.S. Patent 5,118,599. A first object of the present invention is to provide a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material capable of providing a sharp dye image having excellent sharpness. A second object of the present invention is to provide a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material capable of providing a dye image formed by color development processing and having a good hue and excellent color reproduction performance. A third object of the present invention is to provide a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material capable of providing a formed dye image which is fast and less susceptible to discoloring or fading even under various storage conditions. The above and other objects of the present invention have been achieved by the following silver halide color photographic light-sensitive materials. In a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material comprising a support and provided thereon photographic constitutional layers comprising at least one light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing a yellow dye-forming coupler, at least one light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing a magenta dye-forming coupler, and at least one light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing a cyan dye-forming coupler, and at least one non-light-sensitive hydrophilic colloid layer, wherein the above silver halide emulsion layer containing the yellow dye-forming coupler contains at least one yellow dye-forming coupler represented by the following Formula (I) or (II) and at least one hydrophilic colloid layer is provided between the support and the silver halide emulsion layer closest thereto and contains a white pigment: wherein X represents an organic group necessary to form a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic group together with a nitrogen atom; Y 1 represents an aromatic group or heterocyclic group; and Z 1 represents a group splitting off when the coupler represented by the above formula reacts with an oxidation product of a developing agent; wherein R 2 represents a monovalent group other than a hydrogen atom; Q represents a group of non-metal atoms necessary to form a 3- to 5-membered hydrocarbon ring or a 3- to 6-membered heterocyclic group having at least and the waterproof resin layer is provided on the silver halide emulsion layer side of the support and contains a white pigment in an amount of 14 weight % or more: wherein X represents an organic group necessary to form a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic group together with a nitrogen atom; Y 1 represents an aromatic group or heterocyclic group; and Z 1 represents a group splitting off when the coupler represented by the above formula reacts with an oxidation product of a developing agent; and the waterproof resin layer is provided on the silver halide emulsion layer side of the support and contains a white pigment in an amount such that the ratio of the weight of the white pigment to the sum of the weights of the white pigment and hydrophobic binder contained in the waterproof resin layer is 14 weight % or more: wherein X represents an organic group necessary to form a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic group together with a nitrogen atom; Y 1 represents an aromatic group or heterocyclic group; and Z 1 represents a group splitting off when the coupler represented by the above formula reacts with an oxidation product of a developing agent; wherein R 2 represents a monovalent group other than a hydrogen atom; Q represents a group of non-metal atoms necessary to form a 3- to 5-membered hydrocarbon ring or a 3- to 6-membered heterocyclic group having at least one hetero atom selected from N, O, S and P in the ring together with a carbon atom; provided that R 2 may be combined with Q to form a polycyclic ring which is greater than a bicyclic ring.

There can be enumerated, for example, a chlorine series solvent (for example, dichloromethylene), an aromatic series solvent (for example, benzene, chlorobenzene, and toluene), an amide series solvent (for example, N,N-dimethylforamide, N,N-dimethylacetoamide, and N-methylpyrrolidone), a nitrile series solvent (for example, acetonitrile and propionitrile), an ether series solvent (for example, tetrahydrofuran and ethylene glycol diethyl ether), a sulfone series solvent (for example, dimethylsulfone and sulfolane), and a hydrocarbon series solvent (for example, dichlorohexane and normal-hexane). The compounds can be synthesized as well by a process other than the synthesis route shown above. They can be synthesized as well, for example, by the method described in J. Orq. Chem., Vol. 29, 2932 (1964). The compound 5 is further subjected to a conversion of a functional group in some cases to derive it to the final compound. The change of those synthesis routes or the addition of a reaction can arbitrarily be selected. A specific synthesis process will be described below and the other exemplified compounds can be synthesized as well in a similar manner. Synthesis Example 1: Synthesis of Exemplified Compound (54) Compound (54) was synthesized according to the following synthesis process: Compound 6 (3.5 g) and compound 7 (14 g) were dissolved in N,N-dimethylformamide (100 ml) and acetonitrile (100 ml). An acetonitrile solution (40 ml) in which N,N'-dicyclohexycarbodiimide (6 g) was dissolved was added dropwise to this solution at room temperature. After reaction for 2 hours, N,N'-dicyclohexylurea deposited was filtered off. The filtrate was poured into water (500 ml) and the solution was extracted with ethyl acetate (500 ml). An oil layer was collected with a separating funnel and washed with water, followed by drying the oil layer on sodium sulfate. The solvent was distilled off under a reduced pressure and hexane was added to the residue to crystalize it. Compound 8 (17.2 g) was obtained. Compound 8 (16 g) was mixed in dichloromethane (150 ml) and a dichloromethane solution (10 ml) containing bromine (4.8 g) was added dropwise thereto while cooling with ice (5 to 10°C). After continuing the reaction for 10 minutes, the solution was transferred in a separating funnel and washed with water. The oil layer (the solution containing compound 9) was separated and used for the next process as it was. Added to N,N-dimethylforamide (160 ml) were 5,5-dimethyl-2,4-dioxo-1,3-oxazolidine (8.1 g) and triethylamine (8.8 ml). The dichloromethane solution of compound 9 which was obtained above, was added dropwise to this solution at room temperature. After continuing the reaction for 1 hour, ethyl acetate (500 ml) was added and transferred in a separating funnel to wash with water. The solution was neutralized with diluted hydrochloric acid and then washed once again with water, followed by separating an oil phase. The solvent was distilled off under a reduced pressure and the residue was separated and refined by column chromatography. Silica gel was used as a column packing material and ethyl acetate/hexane (1/1 volume) was used as an eluting solvent. The fraction containing the desired compound (54) was collected and the solvent was distilled off under a reduced pressure, whereby a waxlike exemplified compound (54) (15.2 g)÷ was obtained. Synthesis Example 2: Synthesis of exemplified Compound (2) Compound (2) was synthesized in the same manner as that in the above Synthesis Example 1, except that compound 7 was replaced with the same moles of the following compound 10: The final product was refined by column chromatography, whereby a waxlike compound (2) (18.3 g) was obtained.

A synthesis example of a yellow coupler used in the present invention will be shown below. Synthesis Example: Synthesis of the exemplified coupler Y-3 Tetrahydrofuran (40 ml) was added to 60% sodium hydride (16 g) in a nitrogen current and stirring was applied, followed by adding diethyl carbonate (47.3 g). Further, 1-ethylcyclopropane-1-yl-methyl ketone (22.4 g) was added dropwise over a period of 2 hours while heating under refluxing, and stirring was applied for more 2 hours. After cooling the reaction solution, it was poured into dilute hydrochloric acid containing ice and extracted with ethyl acetate. The ethyl acetate solution was concentrated with an evaporator and then distilled under a reduced pressure with an aspirator. The component distilled out at 124 to 130°C was collected to obtain 2-(1-ethylcyclopropane-1-yl) ethyl acetate (24.0 g). A mixture of this compound (22.0 g) and N-(3-amino-4-chlorophenyl)-2-(2,4-d-t-pentylphenoxy) butane-amide (35.4 g) was stirred at 150°C for 3 hours. During that time, ethanol prepared was distilled off. The excess of 2-(l-ethylcyclopropane-1-yl) ethyl acetate was distilled off from the reaction solution under a reduced pressure, whereby there was obtained oily N-(2-chloro-5-[2-(2,4-di-t-pentylphenoxy)butaneamide]phenyl}-2-(1-ethylcyclopropane-1-yl) acetoamide (47.0 g). This compound (43.7 g) was dissolved in methylene chloride (200 ml) and sulfuryl chloride (10.1 g) was added dropwise for about 30 minutes while stirring under cooling with ice. Methylene chloride was distilled off from the reaction solution under a reduced pressure, and 1-benzyl-5-ethoxyhydantoin (38.7 g) and N,N-dimethylformamide (150 ml) were added to the residue to dissolve it. Then, triethylamine (15.2 g) was added dropwise for about 1 hour at room temperature while stirring. After stirring for 3 more hours, the solution was left standing for one night. Ethyl acetate (300 ml) and water (500 ml) were added to the reaction solution for an extraction, and the extract was washed with a sodium hydroxide aqueous solution, diluted hydrochloric acid, and then a sodium bicarbonate aqueous solution. After drying the ethyl acetate solution on sodium sulfate, it was concentrated with an evaporator and crystallized from an isopropanol/n-hexane = 1/10(volume) mixed solution. The deposited crystal was filtrated and dried, whereby the desered exemplified yellow coupler compound (Y-3) (52.6 g) was obtained. The structure of this compound was confirmed with a mass spectrum, a 1 HNMR spectrum and an elemental analysis. This compound had a melting point of 129 to 131°C. Where the yellow coupler used in the present invention is applied to a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material, at least one layer containing the coupler used in the present invention may be provided on a support. The layer containing the coupler used in the present invention may be any layer as long as it is a hydrophilic colloid layer provided on the support.

The coupler represented by Formula (I) or (II) is naturally allowed to be used in combination of two or more kinds. In this case, there may be combined either couplers represented by the same formula or couplers each represented by a different formula. It is also possible to use the couplers represented by formula (I) or (II) in combination with couplers other than a coupler represented by Formula (I) or (II). In this case, the ratio of the coupler used in the present invention is preferably 30 mol% or more. In any case, the preferred amount of the coupler used in the present invention represented by Formula (I) or (II) is as described above. The preferred amount of silver halide emulsion present in the silver halide emulsion layer in which the coupler used in the present invention is used is from about 0.5 to about 50 times, more preferably about 1 to about 20 times, and most preferably about 2 2 to about 10 times the amount of the coupler in terms of mole. In the present invention, any one of the various conventionally known methods can be utilized as the method for adding the above coupler to a hydrophilic colloid layer. Usually, it can be added according to an oil-in-water dispersion method conventionally known as an oil protect method. That is, it is the method in which the coupler is dissolved in a high boiling organic solvent such as phosphoric acid ester and phthalic acid ester and a low boiling auxiliary solvent, and then is dispersed in a gelatin aqueous solution containing a surface active agent. Or water or a gelatin aqueous solution is added to a coupler solution containing a surface active agent to prepare an oil-in-water dispersion accompanied with a phase conversion. If an alkali soluble coupler is employed, the dispersion method known as the Fisher dispersion method can be used as well. In order to remove a low boiling organic solvent from the dispersion thus prepared, a method such as distillation, noodle washing, or ultrafiltration can be preferably used as well. There can be preferably used as the dispersing medium for the coupler, a high boiling organic solvent having a dielectric constant (25°C) of about 2 to about 20 and a refraction index of about 1.4 to about 1.7 and/or a water insoluble high molecular weight compound described in the seventh to fifteenth columns of U.S. Patent 4,857,449 and at the twelfth to thirty pages of International Patent Publication WO88/00723. In the present invention, the weight ratio of the dispersing medium to the coupler is preferably about 0.1 to about 10, more preferably about 0.3 to about 3.

There can be enumerated as the white pigment used in the first aspect of the present invention, titanium dioxide, barium sulfate, lithopon, alumina white, calcium carbonate, silica white, antimony trioxide, titanium phosphate, zinc oxide, white lead, and gypsum. Among these pigments, the use of titanium dioxide is particularly effective.

The grain size of the white pigment used in the hydrophilic colloid layer is about 0.1 to about 1.0 µm, preferably about 0.2 to about 0.3 µm in terms of an average grain size. In the present invention, gelatin can be preferably used as a hydrophilic colloid (a binder) constituting the hydrophilic colloid layer containing the white pigment, and can be used as a hydrophilic colloid in a silver halide emulsion layer and in a non-light-sensitive intermediate layer. Other hydrophilic colloids can be used as well in place of gelatin in an arbitrary proportion according to necessity. There can be enumerated as examples of other hydrophilic colloids, various synthetic polymers including a gelatin derivative, a graft polymer of gelatin with other polymers, protein such as albumin and casein, a cellulose derivative (for example, hydroxyethyl cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose and cellulose sulfate), sugars such as sodium alginate and a starch derivative, polyvinyl alcohol, a partially acetalized product of polyvinyl alcohol, poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone), polyacrylic acid, polymethacrylic acid, polyacrylamide, polyvinylimidazole, and polyvinylpyrazole. In the present invention, various materials used for a photographic light-sensitive material can be added to the white pigment-containing hydrophilic colloid layer in addition to the white pigment and binder. They are, for example, a surface active agent as a coating aid, a hardener, a dye, and an anti-fogging agent. Further, a high boiling organic solvent dispersed as a fine oil drop can be allowed as well to be incorporated. When the dispersion of the high boiling organic solvent is added, various oil soluble materials (such as a fluorescent whitening agent), which are dissolved therein, can be incorporated. The light-sensitive material of the first aspect of the present invention comprises a support and provided thereon at least one light-sensitive emulsion layer which contain a yellow dye-forming coupler, at least one light-sensitive layer which contains a magenta dye-forming coupler, at least one light-sensitive layer which contains a cyan dye-forming coupler, a non-light-sensitive layer such as an anti-color mixing layer and a protective layer, and a hydrophilic colloid layer containing a white pigment.

In the present invention, there may be used an embodiment in which a white pigment is incorporated only into a hydrophilic colloid layer containing the white pigment and a white pigment is not incorporated into a resin constituting a support, for example, a resin coated on a paper substrate or a resin film which is a support itself, or there may be used the embodiment in which the white pigment is incorporated into the hydrophilic colloid layer containing the white pigment and the white pigment is incorporated as well into a resin constituting the above support. A light-sensitive emulsion layer may be provided directly on the hydrophilic colloid layer containing the white pigment, or it may be provided thereon via a plurality of non-light-sensitive hydrophilic colloid layers. Where these non-light-sensitive hydrophilic colloid layers are provided, the sum of the thickness of the non-light-sensitive hydrophilic colloid layers is preferably 5 µm or less, more preferably 2 µm or less. Various photographically useful materials can be incorporated into these non-light-sensitive hydrophilic colloid layers according to necessity.

Further, colloidal silver, a dye dispersed in the form of a solid matter, or a dye mordanted on a cationic polymer is preferably incorporated to constitute a coloring layer that can be decolored during color development processing. Or, a high boiling organic solvent dispersed in the form of a fine oil drop can be incorporated as well. Photographically useful materials such as an oil soluble anti-color mixing agent, a fluorescent whitening agent and a UV absorber can be dissolved in this solvent and incorporated. According to the second aspect of the present invention, a waterproof resin layer is provided on the silver halide emulsion layer side of the support. The waterproof resin layer contains a white pigment in an amount of 14 weight % or more, preferably 15 weight % or more, more preferably 17 weight % or more and most preferably 20 weight % or more. The upper limit of the filling rate is not specifically limited, but it is preferably 90 weight % or less in order to form a uniform layer. Where the white pigment contains various surface treatment agents or dispersion stabilizers for the purpose of improving the dispersing performance thereof, the weight thereof is included in the weight of the white pigment described in the present invention. There can be enumerated as the white pigment used in the second aspect of the present invention, the same white pigments as used in the first aspect, namely titanium dioxide, barium sulfate, lithopon, alumina white, calcium carbonate, silica white, antimony trioxide, titanium phosphate, zinc oxide, white lead, and gypsum. Among these pigments, the use of titanium dioxide is particularly effective. Titanium dioxide may be either of a rutile type or an anatase type and may be manufactured by either a sulfate process or a chloride process. The pigments such as titanium dioxide are used in the first and second aspects of the present invention preferably after the surfaces of the fine grains thereof are subjected to a surface treatment with di- to tetrahydric alcohols, for example, 2,4-dihydroxy-2-methylpentane and trimethylolethane described in JP-A-58-17151, together with or independently from an inorganic oxide such as silica and aluminum oxide. In such a case, the weight of the white pigment is calculated with the value including these surface treatment materials. The waterproof resin layer containing a white pigment fine particle such as titanium dioxide is used in a thickness of about 3 to about 200 µm, preferably about 5 to about 80 µm. The waterproof resin layer containing the white pigment fine particle such as titanium dioxide used according to the present invention may be laminated with a plurality of waterproof resin layers such as, for example, a layer having a different amount of the white pigment, a layer containing a different white pigment and a layer containing no white pigment. In such a case, the waterproof resin layer containing the white pigment fine particle such as titanium dioxide used according to the present invention is preferably provided on the side farther from the support. In the present invention, the variation coefficient of the occupying area ratio (%) of the fine particles of the pigment is preferably about 0.20 or less, more preferably about 0.15 or less, and particularly preferably about 0.10 or less. The dispersibility of a white pigment fine particle such as titanium dioxide in the waterproof resin layer can be evaluated from the occupying area ratio (%) and variation coefficient thereof, wherein the occupying area ratio is obtained by blowing off the resin to a thickness of about 0.1 µm, preferably not much more than 0.05 µm on the resin surface with an ion spattering method by a glow discharge and observing the fine particles of the exposed pigment with an electron microscope. The ion spattering method is described in detail in "Surface Treatment Technique Utilizing a Plasma" written by Y. Murayama and K. Kashiwagi, Machinery Research, vol. 33, No. 6 (1981). In order to control the variation coefficient of the occupying area ratio of the white pigment fine particle to 0.20 or less, the white pigment is suitably kneaded sufficiently in the presence of a surface active agent and preferably is the pigment fine particle the surface of which is treated with di- to tetrahydric alcohol as described above. The occupying area ratio (%) per a regulated unit area of the white pigment can most typically be obtained by dividing an observed area into the unit areas of 6 µm x 6 µm contacting to each other and measuring the occupying area ratio (%) Ri of the pigment fine particles projected on the unit area. The variation coefficient of the occupying area ratio can be obtained in terms of the ratio s/Rm of the standard deviation s of Ri to the average value Rm of Ri. The number (n) of the subject unit areas is preferably 6 or more. There can be used as the base substrate for the above waterproof resin-covered support in the present invention, a base paper obtained from a natural pulp, a synthetic pulp or a mixture thereof, a polyester film of polyethylene terephthalate and polybutylene terephthalate, and a plastic film of cellulose triacetate, polystyrene and polyolefin. The above base paper used in the present invention is selected from the materials generally used for photographic printing paper. That is, there is used the base paper for which a natural pulp selected from a coniferous tree and a broad-leafed tree as a main raw material is used and to which there are added according to necessity, a filler such as clay, talc, calcium carbonate and a filler such as a urea resin, a sizing agent such as rosin, an alkylketene dimer, a higher fatty acid, paraffin wax and alkenyl succinate, a paper strengthening agent such as ployacrylamide, and a fixing agent such as alum sulfate and a cationic polymer. In particular, preferred is a base paper for which there is used a neutral paper with a pH of about 5 or more in which a reactive sizing agent such as alkylketene dimer and alkenyl succinate is used. The PH of the base paper can be judged by measuring with a pH meter in which flat GST-5313 F manufactured by Toa Denpa Industry Co., Ltd., is used as an electrode, whether or not the base paper used for a base substrate for support according to the present invention is the neutral paper. The neutral paper shows a pH value of 5 or more, preferably 5 to 9. Further, there may be used a base paper in which a synthetic pulp is used in place of the above natural pulp, or a base paper in which a pulp obtained by mixing a natural pulp and a synthetic pulp in an arbitrary ratio is used. This pulp surface can be subjected to a surface sizing treatment with a film-forming polymer such as gelatin, starch, carboxymethyl cellulose, polyacrylamide, and a modified product of polyvinyl alcohol. There can be enumerated as the polyvinyl alcohol-modified product in this case, a carboxyl group-modified product, a silanol-modified product, and a copolymer with acrylamide. Where the surface sizing treatment is carried out with a film-forming polymer, the coated amount of the film-forming polymer is adjusted to about 0.1 to about 5.0 g/m 2 , preferably about 0.5 to about 2.0 g/m 2 . Further, in this case, an anti-electrification agent, a fluorescent whitening agent, a pigment, and a deformer can be added to the film-forming agent according to necessity. A pulp slurry containing the above pulp, and according to necessity, a filler, a sizing agent, a paper strengthening agent, and a fixing agent is subjected to paper making with a paper machine, drying and rolling up, whereby a base paper is prepared. The above surface sizing treatment is carried out either before or after this drying and a calendering treatment is carried out after the drying until the rolling up. Where the surface sizing treatment is carried out after the drying, this calendering treatment can be carried out either before or after the surface sizing treatment. The waterproof resin layer itself described in the present invention may constitute a support as is the case with a vinyl chloride resin. The waterproof resin layer used in the present invention can be a resin having a water absorption coefficient (weight %) of about 0.5 or less, preferably about 0.1 or less at 25°C, for example, polyalkylene (for example, polyethylene, polypropylene and a copolymers thereof), polystyrene, polyacrylate and copolymers thereof, other vinyl polymers and copolymers thereof, and polyester and copolymers thereof. A polyalkylene resin is preferred, such as, for example, a low density polyethylene, a high density polyethylene, polypropylene, or a blended product thereof. A fluorescent whitening agent, an anti-oxidation agent, an anti-electrification agent, and a peeling agent are added to the waterproof resin layer according to necessity. There can be used to form the resin layer an unsaturated organic compound having one or more polymerizable carbon - carbon double bonds in one molecule, for example, a methacrylic acid ester compound, as described in JP-A-57-27257, JP-A-57-49946 and JP-A-61-262738, or tri- or tetra-acrylic acid ester represented by the general formula in JP-A-61-262738. In these cases, after titanium dioxide or the other white pigment is dispersed in these unsaturated organic compounds and the dispersion is coated on a base substrate, an electron beam is irradiated thereon for curing, whereby the white pigment-containing waterproof resin layer can be formed. Other resins can be mixed as well in this resin layer. As a method for coating the waterproof resin layer used according to the present invention, there can be used the lamination methods described in "New Laminate Processing Manual" edited by Processing Technique Research Association, for example, dry lamination and non-solvent type lamination. A coating method also can be selected from the methods of a gravure roll type, a wire bar type, a doctor blade type, a reverse roll type, a dipping type, an air knife type, a calender type, a kiss type, a squeeze type, a fountain type, and a coating type. A support is preferably subjected to a corona discharge treatment, a glow discharge treatment or a flame treatment and then is coated with the hydrophilic colloid layers of a silver halide photographic material. The basis weight of the support is preferably about 30 to about 350 g/m 2 , more preferably about 50 to about 200 g/m 2 . In providing the hydrophilic colloid layer containing a white pigment on a support, which is another embodiment of the present invention, the coated amount of the white pigment is set at 2 g/m 2 or more. The coloring layer capable of being decolored during a color development processing used in the present invention either may contact directly an emulsion layer or may be provided so that it contacts the emulsion layer via an intermediate layer containing gelatin and an anti-color mixing agent such as hydroquinone. This coloring layer is provided preferably below (a support side) the emulsion layer coloring to the same kind of an elementary color as that of the colored color thereof. It is possible either to independently provide all of the coloring layers corresponding to the respective elementary colors or to arbitrarily select only a part thereof to provide it. Further, it is possible as well to provide the coloring layer colored so that it corresponds to a plurality of the elementary color regions. In the optical reflection density in the coloring layer, the optical density in the wavelength in which the optical density is the highest in the visible ray region of 400 to 700 nm in terms of the wavelength of rays is about 0.2 to about 3.0, more preferably about 0.5 to about 2.5, and particularly preferably about 0.8 to about 2.0. Conventionally known methods can be employed to form the coloring layer which can be decolored. They are, for example, the method in which a dye in the form of a fine powder is dispersed in the form of a solid, the method in which an anionic dye is mordanted to a cationic polymer, the method in which a dye is adsorbed on a fine particle of silver halide to fix in a layer, and the method in which colloidal silver is used. The method in which a dye in the form of a fine powder is dispersed in the form of a solid is described, for example, at pages 4 to 13 of JP-A-2-308244, the method in which there is incorporated a fine powder dye which is substantially insoluble in water at least at a pH of about 6 or lower and substantially soluble in water at least at a pH of about 8 or higher. Further, the method in which an anionic dye is mordanted to a cationic polymer is described at pages 18 to 26 of JP-A-2-84637. The method for preparing colloidal silver as a photoabsorbing agent is shown in U.S. Patents 2,688,601 and 3,459,563. Of these methods, preferred are the method in which a fine powder dye is dispersed in the form of a solid and the method in which colloidal silver is used. Where the fine powder dye is used, the compound represented by Formula (Sa) can be used for the dye: E-(X 2 ) y wherein E represents a compound having a chromophore; X 2 represents a dissociative proton bonded to E directly or via a divalent linkage group, or a group having the dissociative proton; and y represents the integer of 1 to 7.

They each may have a substituent. The methine groups represented by L 1 , L 2 and L 3 may have substituents, and the substituents themselves may be combined to form a 5- to 6-membered ring. The substituents the above respective groups may have are not specifically limited unless they are the groups which allow the compounds of Formulas (Sa) to (Se) to substantially be dissolved in water of pH 5 to 7. There can be enumerated, for example, a carboxylic acid group, a sulfonamido group having a carbon number of 1 to 10 (for example, methanesulfonamido, benzenesulfonamido, butanesulfonamido, and n-octanesulfonamido), a sulfamoyl group having a carbon number of 0 to 10 (for example, unsubstituted sulfamoyl, methylsulfamoyl, phenylsulfamoyl, and butylsulfamoyl), a sulfonylcarbamoyl group having a carbon number of 2 to 10 (for example, methanesulfonylcarbamoyl, propanesulfonylcarbamoyl, and benzenesulfonylcarbamoyl), an acylsulfamoyl group having a carbon number of 1 to 10 (for example, acetylsulfamoyl, propionylsulfamoyl, pivalolysulfamoyl, and benzoylsulfamoyl), an alkyl group having a carbon number of 1 to 8 (for example, methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, butyl, hexyl, 2-hydroxyethyl, 4-carboxybutyl, 2-methoxyethyl, benzyl, phenethyl, 4-carboxybenzyl, and 2-diethylaminoethyl), an alkoxy group having a carbon number of 1 to 8 (for example, methoxy, ethoxy, and butoxy), a halogen atom (for example, a fluorine atom, a chlorihne atom, and a bromine atom), an amino group having a carbon number of 0 to 10 (for example, unsubstituted amino, dimethylamino, diethylamino, and carboxyethylamino), an ester group having a carbon number of 2 to 10 (for example, methoxycarbonyl), an amido group having a carbon number of 1 to 10 (for example, acetylamino and benzamido), a carbamoyl group having a carbon number of 1 to 10 (for example, unsubstituted carbamoyl, methylcarbamoyl, and ethylcarbamoyl), an aryl group having a carbon number of 6 to 10 (for example, phenyl, naphthyl, 4-carboxyphenyl, 3-carboxyphenyl, 3,5-dicarboxyphenyl, 4-methanesulfonamidophenyl, and 4-butanesulfonamidophenyl), an acyl group having a carbon number of 1 to 10 (for example, acetyl, benzoyl, and propanoyl), a sulfonyl group having a carbon number of 1 to 10 (for example, methanesulfonyl and benzenesufonyl), a ureido group having a carbon number of 1 to 10 (for example, ureido and methylureido), a urethane group having a carbon number of 2 to 10 (for example, methoxycarbonylamino and ethoxycarbonylamino), a cyano group, a hydroxy group, a nitro group, and a heterocyclic group (for example, a 5-carboxybenzoxazole ring, a pyridine ring, a sulfolane ring, and a furan ring). Compounds represented by Formulas (Sa) to (Se) which can be used in the present invention will be shown below, but the present invention is not limited thereto. In the method in which colloidal silver is used to form a coloring layer which can be disclosed, the colloidal silver is that shich is usually used for a photographic light-sensitive material. After the preparation thereof, colloidal silver used in the present invention is preferably-desalted so sufficiently that-the electroconductivity thereof becomes 1800 µS/cm or less. The amount of colloidal silver in the colloidal silver-containing layer is preferably about 0.01 to about 0.5 g, particularly preferably about 0.05 to about 0.2 g per m 2 as silver. At least one yellow color developing silver halide emulsion layer, at least one magenta color developing silver halide emulsion layer and at least one cyan color developing silver halide emulsion layer can be provided on a support to thereby constitute the color light-sensitive material of the present invention. In a general- color photographic paper, the color coupler which forms a dye having the relationship of a complementary color with rays to which a silver halide emulsion is sensitive can be incorporated to carry out a color reproduction by a subtractive color process. In the general color photographic paper, the silver halide emulsion grains are spectrally sensitized with blue-sensitive, green-sensitive and red-sensitive spectral sensitizing dyes, respectively, in the order of the above color developing layers, and the respective emulsions can be coated on the support in the above order to constitute the color photographic paper. However, the order may be different from this. That is, a light-sensitive emulsion layer containing a silver halide grains with the largest average grain size is preferably provided uppermost in some cases from the viewpoint of rapid processing, and in some cases the lowest layer is preferably a magenta color developing light-sensitive emulsion layer from the viewpoint of storage performance under the irradiation of rays. There may be taken the constitution in which the light-sensitive layers and the hues of developed colors do not have the above correspondence, and at least one infrared-sensitive emulsion layer can be used as well. There are given as silver halide grains which can be used in the present invention, silver chloride, silver bromide, silver (iodo)bromochloride, and silver bromoiodide. In particular, in the present invention, silver halide comprising silver bromochloride or silver chloride containing substantially no silver iodide can be preferably used in order to expedite development processing time, wherein the term "containing substantially no silver iodide" means that the silver iodide content is 1 mol% or less, preferably 0.2 mol% or less. Meanwhile, high silver chloride grains containing silver iodide of 0.01 to 3 mol% on an emulsion surface as described in JP-A-3-84545 are preferably used in some cases for the purposes of increasing sensitivity at a high illuminance, raising spectral sensitization sensitivity and improving storage stability of a light-sensitive material. The halogen composition of the emulsion may be different or equivalent by grain. The use of an emulsion containing grains each having the same composition can readily homogenize the quality of each of the grains. With respect to the halogen composition distribution in the inside of the silver halide emulsion grain, there can suitably be selected and used grains of a so-called homogeneous type structure in which the composition is the same at any part of the silver halide grain, the grains of a so-called laminating type structure in which a core present in the inside of the silver halide grain and the shell (one layer or plural layers) surrounding it have different halogen compositions, or grains of the structure in which there are present the portions having different halogen compositions in the inside or on the surface of the grain in the form of a non-layer (the structure in which the portions of the different compositions are conjugated at the edge, corner or surface of the grain where they are present on the surface of the grain). The use of either of the latter two rather than the grains of the homogeneous type structure is advantageous for obtaining high sensitivity and is preferred as well from the viewpoint of pressure resistance performance. Where the silver halide grains have the above structures, the boundary at the portions having the different halogen compositions may have a distinct boundary or an indistinct boundary in which a mixed crystal is formed according to the composition difference, or the structure in which a continuous structural change is allowed to positively be provided. A so-called high silver chloride emulsion having a high silver chloride content is preferably used for a light-sensitive material suitable for rapid processing as is the case in the present invention. In the present invention, the silver chloride content in the high silver chloride emulsion is preferably 90 mole% or more, more preferably 95 mole% or more. In such a high silver chloride emulsion, preferred is an emulsion having the structure in which a silver bromide localizing phase is present in the form of a layer or non-layer as mentioned above in the inside of a silver halide grain and/or on the surface thereof. The halogen composition in the above localiz-ing phase is preferably at least about 10 mole%, more preferably more than about 20 mole% and up to 100 mol% in terms of silver bromide content. The silver bromide content in the silver bromide localizing phase can be analyzed with an X-ray diffraction process (described in, for example, "New Experimental Chemistry Course 6, Structural Analysis" edited by Japan Chemistry Association, Maruzen). These localizing phases can be present in a grain inside or at the edge, corner or on the plane of a grain surface. A localizing phase epitaxially grown at the corner portion of the grain can be enumerated as one preferred example. It is effective as well to further increase the silver chloride content in a silver halide emulsion for the purpose of reducing the replenishing amount of a development processing solution. In such a case, an emulsion-of almost pure silver chloride having a silver chloride content of about 98 to 100 mol% can be preferably used. The sliver halide grain contained in the silver halide emulsion used in the present invention has preferably an average grain size (the grain size is defined by the diameter of a circle having the same area as that of the projected area of the grain and a number average is calculated therefrom) of about 0.1 to about 2 µm. In the size distribution of these grains, preferred is a so-called monodispersion in which a variation coefficient (obtained by dividing the standard deviation in the grain size distribution with an average grain size) is about 20% or less, preferably about 15% or less, and more preferably about 10% or less. In this case, two or more of the above monodispersed emulsions are preferably used for the same layer in a blend or simultaneously coated in different layers for the purpose of obtaining a broad latitude. There can be used as the silver halide grains present in a photographic emulsion, grains having a regular crystal form such as cube, octahedron and tetradecahedron, grains having an irregular crystal form such as sphere and plate, or a composite form thereof. Further, the emulsion may consist of a mixture of grains having various crystal forms. In the present invention, of these emulsions, preferred is one containing grains having a regular crystal form present in an amount of about 50 by weight % or more, preferably about 70 by weight % or more, and more preferably about 90 by weight % or more. In addition thereto, preferably used as well is an emulsion in which tabular grains having an average aspect ratio (circle area-corresponding diameter/thickness) of 5 or more, preferably 8 or more are present in an amount which exceeds 50% of all of the grains. The emulsion used in the present invention can be synthesized by the methods described in Chemie et Phisique Photographique , written by P. Glafkides (published by Paul Montel Co., Ltd., 1967), Photographic Emulsion Chemistry, written by G.F. Duffin (published by Focal Press Co., Ltd., 1966), and Making and Coating Photographic Emulsion, written by V.L. Zelikman, (published by Focal Press Co., Ltd., 1964). That is, there may be used any of an acid method, a neutral method and an ammonia method. Any of a single jet method, a double jet method and a combination thereof may be used as the method for allowing a water soluble silver salt to react with a water soluble halide. There can be used as well a method in which the grains are formed under the presence of excessive silver ions (a so-called reverse mixing method). There can be used as one form of the double jet method, a method in which the pAg of the solution in which the sliver halide grains are formed is maintained constant, a so-called controlled double jet method. There can be obtained with this method, a silver halide emulsion having a regular crystal form and an almost uniform grain size. A different kind of a metal ion or a complex ion thereof is preferably incorporated into the localizing phase or substrate of the silver halide grains according to the present invention. The preferred metal is selected from a metal ion or metal complex belonging to the VIII group and IIb group of the Periodic Table, a lead ion, and a thallium ion. There can be used for the localized phase, mainly an ion or complex ion thereof selected from iridium, rhodium and iron, and for the (substrate), mainly a metal ion or complex ion thereof selected from osmium, iridium, rhodium, platinum, ruthenium, palladium, cobalt, nickel, and iron in combination thereof. Metal ions the kinds and concentrations of which are different in the localized phase and substrate can be used. A plurality of these metals may be used. In particular, the iron and iridium compounds are allowed to be present preferably in the silver bromide localized phase. These metal ion-providing compounds are incorporated into the localized phase and/or other grain portions (substrate) by means of adding them to a gelatin aqueous solution which contains a dispersant, a halide aqueous solution, a silver salt aqueous solution or other aqueous solutions employed in the formation of the silver halide grains, or adding them to a silver halide fine grain in advance and dissolving this fine grain into one of the above solutions. The metal ions used in the present invention can be incorporated into the emulsion grains before grain formation, during grain formation or immediately after the grain formation. This can be changed according to what position of the grain the metal ion is incorporated into. The silver halide emulsion used in the present invention is usually subjected to a chemical sensitization and a spectral sensitization. There can be used singly or in combination as the chemical sensitization, a chemical sensitization in which a chalcogen sensitizer is used (to be specific, there can be enumerated a sulfur sensitization such as achieved by the addition of an unstable sulfur compound, a selenium sensitization with a selenium compound, and a tellurium sensitization with a tellurium compound), a noble metal sensitization such as a gold sensitization, and a reduction sensitization. Those described in the right lower column at page 18 to the right upper column at page 22 of JP-A-62-215272 are preferably used as the compound for the chemical sensitization. The emulsion used in the present invention is a so-called surface latent image type emulsion in which an latent image is formed primarily on a grain surface. Various compounds or precursors thereof can be added to the silver halide emulsion used in the present invention for the purposes of preventing fog or stabilizing photographic performances during production of the silver halide photographic material and during storage or photographic processing. Those described at pages 39 to 72 of above JP-A-62-215272 are preferably used as specific examples of these compounds. Further, preferably used as well is a 5-arylamino-1,2,3,4-thiatriazole compound (the aryl residue has at least one electron attractive group) described in EP 0,447,647. Spectral sensitization is carried out for the purpose of providing the emulsions contained in the respective layers of the light-sensitive material of the present invention with spectral sensitivities in the prescribed wavelength regions. In the light-sensitive material of the present invention, there can be enumerated as spectral sensitizing dye used for the spectral sensitizations in the blue, green and red regions, the compounds described in, for example, Heterocyclic Compounds - Cyanine Dyes and Related Compounds, written by F.M. Harmer (published by John Wiley & Sons, New York, London, 1964). Those described in the right upper column at page 22 to page 38 of the above JP-A-62-215272 are preferably used as the specific examples of a spectral sensitizing compound and a spectral sensitizing method. In particular, the spectral sensitizing dyes described in JP-A-3-123340 are preferred very much as the red-sensitive spectral sensitizing dye for silver halide emulsion grains having a high silver chloride content from the viewpoint of stability, strength of adsorption and temperature dependency during exposure. Where spectral sensitization in an infrared region is carried out in the light-sensitive material of the present invention, preferably used are the sensitizing dyes described in the left upper column at page 12 to the left lower column at page 21 of JP-A-3-15049, in the left lower column at page 4 to the left lower column at page 15 of JP-3-20730, on the 21st line at page 4 to the 54th line at page 6 of EP 0,420,011, on the 12th line at page 4 to the 33rd line at page 10 of EP 0,420,012, and in EP 0,443,466 and U.S. Patent 4,975,362. In order to incorporate these spectral sensitizing dyes into a silver halide emulsion, they may be dispersed directly in the emulsion, or may be dissolved in a single solvent or mixed solvent such as water, methanol, ethanol, propanol, methyl cellosolve, and 2,2,3,3-tetrafluoropropanol to add to the emulsion. Also, as described in JP-B-44-23389 (the term "JP-B" as used herein means an examined Japanese patent publication), JP-B-44-27555 and JP-B-57-22089, they may be dissolved in water in the presence of an acid or a base, and as described in U.S. Patents 3,822,135 and 4,006,025, an aqueous solution or colloid dispersion which is prepared in the presence of a surface active agent may be added to the emulsion. Further, after dissolving in a solvent which is substantially immiscible with water, such as phenoxyethanol, the solution may be dispersed in water or a hydrophilic colloid to add to the emulsion. As described in JP-A-53-102733 and JP-A-58-105141, a dispersion, which is prepared by dispersing the dyes directly in a hydrophilic colloid, may be added to the emulsion. The timing of adding the spectral sensitizing dyes to the emulsion may be at any step in preparing the emulsion, which has so far been known as effective. That is, it can be selected from any of before grain formation of the silver halide emulsion, during grain formation, from immediately after grain formation to before proceeding to a washing step, before chemical sensitization, during chemical sensitization, from immediately after chemical sensitization to the solidification of the emulsion by cooling, and in the preparation of a coating solution. Most usually, it is carried out at the period of from after the completion of the chemical sensitization before coating. However, as described in U.S. Patents 3,628,969 and 4,225,666, the spectral sensitizing dyes can be added at the same period as the chemical sensitization to carry out the spectral sensitization simultaneously with the chemical sensitization. Also, as described in JP-A-58-113928, spectral sensitization can be carried out prior to chemical sensitization. The spectral sensitizing dyes can be added before completing the preparation of the silver halide grains to start the spectral sensitization. Further, as taught in U.S. Patent 4,225,666, a divided spectral sensitizing dye can be added as-well; that is, a part thereof is added prior to chemical sensitization and the rest is added after chemical sensitization. The addition of the spectral sensitizing dyes may be at any period during the formation of the silver halide grains as well as the method taught in U.S. Patent 4,183,756. Among them, particularly preferred is the addition of the spectral sensitizing dyes before a washing step for the emulsion or before chemical sensitization. The addition amount of these spectral sensitizing dyes which can be added extends over a wide range according to the occasion. The amount preferably is from 0.5×10 -6 to 1.0×10 -2 mole, more preferably 1.0×10 -6 to 5.0×10 -3 mole per mole of silver halide. In the present invention, where a sensitizing dye having a spectral sensitization sensitivity particularly in a red region to an infrared region is used, the compounds described in the right lower column at page 13 to the right lower column at page 22 of JP-A-2-157749 are preferably used in combination. The use of these compounds can specifically increase the storing performance, stability during processing and supersensitization effect of a light-sensitive material. Above all, the compounds of Formulas (IV), (V) and (VI) in the above patent are particularly preferably used in combination. These compounds are used in the amount of 0.5×10 -5 to 5.0×10 -2 mole, preferably 5.0×10 -5 to 5.0×10 -3 mole per mole of silver halide, and advantageously, the amount thereof is 0.1 to 10000 times, preferably 0.5 to 5000 times the moles of the spectral sensitizing dye. Gelatin is advantageously used as the binder or protective colloid which can be used for the light-sensitive material according to the present invention, and the other hydrophilic colloids can be used as well singly or together with gelatin. Low calcium gelatin having a calcium content of 800 ppm or less, more preferably 200 ppm or less is preferably used. Further, anti-mold agents described in JP-A-63-271247 are preferably added in order to prevent various molds and fungi which grow in a hydrophilic colloid layer to deteriorate an image. The light-sensitive material according to the present invention may be exposed with either a visible ray or an infrared ray. The manner of exposing may be either a low illuminance exposure or a high illuminance exposure. There can be given as the preferred exposing manner for high illuminance exposure, a laser scanning exposing system in which an exposing time per a pixel is shorter than 10 -4 second, further preferably shorter than 10 -6 second. In exposure, a band stop filter such as described in U.S. Patent 4,880,726 is preferably used, whereby a light mixture is removed to notably improve color reproduction. An exposed light-sensitive material can be subjected to a conventional color development processing comprising generally a developing step, a densilvering step, a water-washing step and/or a stabilizing step. In case of the color light-sensitive material of the present invention, it is preferably subjected to a bleach-fixing processing after color development for the purpose of rapid processing. In particular, where the above high silver chloride emulsion is used, the pH of the bleach-fixing solution is preferably 6.5 or less, more preferably about 6 or less for the purpose of accelerating desilvering. Those described in the following patent publications, particularly European Patent EP 0,355,660A2 (JP-A-2-139544) are preferably used as the silver halide emulsions, other materials (the additives) and photographic constitutional layers (a layer arrangement) each applied to the light-sensitive material according to the present invention, and the processing methods and additives for processing, which are applied for processing this light-sensitive material: The cyan, magenta and yellow couplers are preferably impregnated in a loadable latex polymer (for example, as described in U.S. Patent 4,203,716) or dissolved together with a water insoluble and organic solvent soluble polymer in the presence or absence of an organic high boiling solvent such as described in the above tables to emulsify and disperse them in a hydrophilic colloid aqueous solution. There can be enumerated as a water insoluble and organic solvent soluble polymer which can be preferably used, the homopolymers or copolymers described in the 7th to 15th columns of U.S. Patent 4,857,449 and at pages 12 to 30 of International Patent Publication WO88/00723. A methacrylate series or acrylamide series polymer, particularly an acrylamide series polymer is preferably used in terms of the stabilization of a dye image. In the light-sensitive material according to the present invention, the color image preservability-improving compounds described in European Patent EP 0,277,589A2 are preferably used together with a coupler.

Next, Samples 105 to 131 were prepared in the same manner as that in Sample 101, except that the three layers shown below were provided on the support (polyethylene laminated paper) as a subbing layer (in the order of the first subbing layer, second subbing layer and third subbing layer from the support side) and that the coupler contained in the first layer (the blue-sensitive layer) was replaced similarly to the above with the couplers shown in Tables A-1 and A-2. First subbing layer (a white pigment layer): A rutile type titanium white pigment (400 g) having an average grain size of 0.23 µm (Titan White R780 manufactured by Ishiwara Sangyo Co., Ltd.) and water (4 liters) were added to a 10% gelatin aqueous solution (1.0 kg) and a 5% sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate aqueous solution (8 ml) was added thereto as a dispersant, followed by dispersing by irradiating a supersonic wave to thereby prepare a coating solution. This coating solution was applied so that the coated amounts became as shown in Tables A-1 and A-2. Second subbing layer (a coloring layer): Sodium carbonate anhydrous (2 g) was added to a 10% gelatin aqueous solution (1 kg) and a 10% silver nitrate aqueous solution (500 ml) was added thereto while maintaining the temperature at 45°C. Then, an aqueous solution (1000 ml) containing sodium sulfite anhydrous (35 g) and hydroquinone (25 g) was added over a period of 10 minutes. After leaving for standing for 10 minutes, 1N sulfuric acid (about 100 ml) was added to adjust pH to 5.0. The colloidal silver sol thus obtained was poured into a cooling dish to sufficiently gelatinize it and then was cut to a noodle shape, followed-by washing with cold water for 6 hours. This was heated and dissolved, whereby a colloidal silver coating solution was prepared. Meanwhile, a dye was dispersed with a BO type vibrating ball mill manufactured by Chuo Kakoki Co., Ltd. Water (21.7 ml), a 5% sodium p-octylphenoxyethoxyethanesulfonate aqueous solution, and a 5% p-octylphenoxypolyoxyethylene ether (polymerization degree: 10) aqueous solution (0.5 g) were put in a 700 ml pot mill, and the dye (Sc-3 shown above) (0.5 g) and beads (diameter: 1 mm) of zirconium oxide (volume: 500 ml) were added thereto, followed by dispersing the content over a period of 2 hours. The content was taken out and added to a 12.5% gelatin aqueous solution (8 g). Then, the beads were filtered to obtain a gelatin dispersion of the dye, whereby the dye coating solution was prepared. These coloring layer coating solutions were applied so that the coated amounts became as shown in Tables A-1 and A-2. Third subbing layer: Water (2 liters) was added to a 10% gelatin aqueous solution (1.0 kg) and a 5% sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate aqueous solution (8 ml) was added thereto as a dispersant, whereby the third subbing coating solution was prepared. This coating solution was applied so that the coated amount became 0.7 g/m 2 . When the colloidal silver sol was used for the second subbing layer, Cpd-4, Solv-2 and Solv-3 were added to the second subbing layer and third subbing layer in the amounts of 0.02, 0.05 and 0.05 g/m 2 , respectively. First, Samples 101 to 104 were subjected to an exposure with a sensitometer (an FWH type, the color temperature of a light source: 3200°K, manufactured by Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd.) so that about 30% of the coated silver amount was developed and gray was given. The above samples were subjected to a 250 m 2 continuous processing with a paper processing machine at the following processing steps in the processing solutions of the following compositions. Processing step Temperature Time Replenishing amount Tank capacity Color developing 35°C 45 seconds 161 ml 10 ℓ Bleach/fixing 35°C 45 seconds 218 ml 10 ℓ Rinsing (1) 35°C 30 seconds - 5 ℓ Rinsing (2) 35°C 30 seconds - 5 ℓ Rinsing (3) 35°C 30 seconds 360 ml 5 ℓ Drying 80°C 60 seconds The compositions of the respective processing solutions are as follows: Color developing solution Tank Solution Replenishing solution Water 800 ml 800 ml Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid 3.0 g 3.0 g Disodium 4,5-dihydroxybenzene-1,3-disulfonate 0.5 g 0.5 g Triethanolamine 12.0 g 12.0 g Potassium chloride 2.5 g - Potassium bromide 0.01 g - Potassium carbonate 27.0.g 27.0 g Fluorescent whitening agent (Whitex 4 manufactured by Sumitomo Chem.

The samples thus processed were first subjected to the measurement of a yellow density via a blue filter and then the above four sheets each were stored at the four conditions A, B, C and D shown below to subject them to a fading test. Condition A: 2 months at 70°C and 65% RH. Condition B: 4 weeks under an intermittent xenon light of 80,000 lux (bright for 5 hours and dark for 1 hour). Condition C: 1 week at 60°C and 70% RH. Condition D: after stored at 60°C and 70% RH for 1 week, 4 weeks at the same condition as the condition B. The samples after the fading were subjected once again to the measurement of the yellow density to obtain a dye image remaining rate. The results are shown in Tables A-1 and A-2. Next, the respective samples were exposed to a green light via an optical wedge for measuring a CTF and then processed in order to measure the sharpness thereof. CTF described herein represents the attenuation behavior of the contrast of an image obtained in carrying out the exposure of a square wave form while varying a spatial frequency. There were used herein the images obtained by giving the contrast of 0.2 in the exposure of the square wave form at the spatial frequency of 2.5 cycle/mm with a visually sharpest green light to compare the relative values of the contrasts of the respective samples. The CTF values thus obtained are shown in Tables A-1 and A-2. The larger the CTF value is, the less the contrast is deteriorated and the higher the sharpness is. The colors of the respective samples after the processing were visually observed. It was confirmed that contrary to the samples in which the comparative coupler ExY-1 was used, the samples in which ExY-2 and the yellow couplers used in the present invention were used had less red color component and an excellent hue. Next, a comparison of Samples 101 to 104 in the results of the fading test shows that while the yellow couplers used in the present invention are more excellent than the comparative couplers ExY-1 and ExY-2 in Condition A, they are a little inferior to the comparative coupler ExY-1 in Conditions B and D. Where the white pigment layer is provided, it is observed that the sharpness is improved in any samples. In this case, the fading in Condition D is notably accelerated as can be seen in Samples 105 to 112. On the contrary, in the yellow couplers used in the present invention, the fading in Condition B is improved only a little bit, as can be seen in Samples 113 to 131 and the fading in Condition D is scarcely caused. Accordingly, high sharpness and excellent dye image fastness can be achieved at the same time where the coupler used in the present invention is used in combination with the white pigment. Further, also where colloidal silver and a solid dispersion dye are used, similar results are obtained in the fading test. Accordingly, it can be found that the combination of these means enables the obtaining of higher sharpness. EXAMPLE 2 Samples 201 and 204 to 207 were prepared in the same manner as that in Sample 101 of Example 1, except that the amount of the titan white pigment contained in the polyethylene laminated on the emulsion layer side of the support was changed as shown in Table B to change the support. Next, Samples 202, 203 and 209 to 223 were prepared in the same manner as Samples 201 and 204 to 208, except that the couplers were replaced with the couplers used in the present invention. These samples were evaluated as well in the same manner as that in Example 1. The results are shown in Table B.

Also where Samples 201 to 223 were provided with a coloring layer as a subbing layer in the same manner as that in Example 1, the sharpness could further be improved similarly to Example 1 without deteriorating the fading in Condition D.
