FIELD: chemical industry. SUBSTANCE: described are new 3,3'-di-γ-sulfoalkylthiacarbocyanine betaine salts (I) wherein A is lower alkyl, R is 0-AIK -γ- is halogen, R1 is 3.3'-diethylthiazoline carbocyanine, 3.3'- diethyloxacarbocyanine, or 1.1'-diethyl-quino-2,2-monomethinecyanine as spectral sensitizer of halogen-silver photographic emulsions, and method of spectral sensitization of halogen-silver emulsions and use thereof. Compounds (I) make it possible to attain higher level of light sensitivity of photolayers especially behind filter OC-H after chemical photographic treatment. EFFECT: improved properties of the salts. 3 cl, 27 ex, 3 tbl
