Abstract
A coupler which has no substituent at the active position is usually called a four-equivalent coupler, because totally four moles (equivalents) of silver halide are necessary to generate one mole of an azomethine dye. On the other hand, a coupler whose active position is substituted with an electro-negative atom such as chlorine, oxygen, or sulfur is called a two-equivalent coupler, because it theoretically requires two moles of silver halide to produce one mole of the corresponding dye. The dye-forming reaction involving a two-equivalent coupler is referred to as elimination coupling.
