Abstract

Abstract Compounds of the formula wherein L is a direct bond or consists of a chain of carbon atoms or of a divalent ring system, R 1 to R 4 are hydrogen or alkyl, R 5 or R 6 are hydrogen, alkyl or aryl, or R 5 together with R 6 complete a ring system, and R 7 is hydrogen or a group of the formula wherein L, R 5 and R 6 are as defined. These compounds are useful developing agents for activation processing.
