Abstract
Abstract Photographic elements, diffusion transfer assemblages and processes are described which employ a novel nondiffusible compound having a releasable, 2-(2-pyridylazo)-4,5-bis(tertiary amino)phenol black dye moiety or precursor thereof, such as: ##STR1## wherein: (a) R represents hydrogen, a hydrolyzable moiety or CAR; (b) R 1 and R 2 each independently represents an alkyl group of 1 to about 6 carbon atoms, CAR, or can be taken together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached to complete a 5- or 6-membered heterocyclic ring; (c) R 3 and R 4 each independently represents an alkyl group of 1 to about 6 carbon atoms, CAR, or can be taken together with the nitrogen to which they are attached to complete a 5- or 6-membered heterocyclic ring; (d) CAR represents a ballasted carrier moiety capable of releasing the diffusible black dye moiety or precursor thereof under alkaline conditions; and (e) n is 0, 1 or 2, with the proviso that when n is 0, then at least one of R, R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , or R 4 is CAR.
