Preferred bisresorcinyl compounds of the formula (1) are those in which A.sub.1 is a radical of the formula ##STR8##
R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 here are as defined in the formulae (1a) and (1b).
Important bisresorcinyl compounds according to the invention have the formula ##STR9## the formula ##STR10## or the formula ##STR11## in which R.sub.6 and R.sub.7, independently of one another, are C.sub.3 -C.sub.18 alkyl; or --CH.sub.2 --CH(--OH)--CH.sub.2 --O--T.sub.1 ;

T.sub.1 is hydrogen; or C.sub.1 -C.sub.5 alkyl.
Very particularly preferred in this case are triazine compounds of the formula (2) or (3), in which R.sub.6 and R.sub.7 have the same meaning.
Examples of compounds of the formula (1) which may be mentioned are:
2-(4'-methoxyphenyl)-4,6-bis(2'-hydroxy-4'-n-octyloxyphenyl)-1,3,5-triazine;
2,4-bis{�4-(3-(2-propyloxy)-2-hydroxypropyloxy)-2-hydroxy!phenyl}-6-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3,5-triazine;
2,4-bis{�4-(2-ethylhexyloxy)-2-hydroxy!phenyl}-6-�4-(2-methoxyethylcarboxyl)phenylamino!-1,3,5-triazine;
2,4-bis{�4-(tris(trimethylsiloxysilylpropyloxy)-2-hydroxy!phenyl}-6-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3,5-triazine;

2,4-bis{�4-(2-ethylhexyloxy)-2-hydroxy!phenyl}-6-(1-methylpyrrol-2-yl)-1,3,5-triazine.
The novel bis(resorcinyl)triazines can be prepared in various ways. For example, the compounds of the formula (1), if A.sub.1 is a radical of the formula (1a) and R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 have the same meaning, can be prepared in a three-step reaction, starting from cyanuric chloride. In this case the appropriate phenylmagnesium bromide compound is reacted in a Grignard reaction with cyanuric chloride to give the dichlorotriazine compound of the formula ##STR14##
Processes for the preparation of these intermediates are known and described, for example, in EP-A-0,577,559. The two resorcinyl groups are then introduced in a generally known manner by Friedel-Crafts acylation of resorcinol in the presence of a Lewis acid, in particular aluminium chloride. In the third step, the etherification of the free p-hydroxyl groups is carried out, depending on the meaning of the radicals R.sub.1 and R.sub.2, by alkylation or acid-catalysed addition of glycidyl ethers. Detailed information for this can be taken from the preparation examples.
The dichlorotriazine intermediate of the formula (1d) is also accessible by ring closure reaction without use of Grignard reagents. To this end, the appropriately substituted benzonitrile is reacted with dicyandiamide to give the 6-aryl-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-dione, which is converted using thionyl chloride into the chloro derivative of the formula (1d). Alternatively to this, the compound of the formula (1d) is also accessible by reaction of the appropriately substituted N,N-dimethylcarboxamides with phosphorus oxychloride and N-cyanochloroformamidine. These reactions are already known and are described, for example, in Dyes and Pigments 7, 419-443 (1986).
Compounds of the formula (1), in which A.sub.1 is a radical of formula (1a), can furthermore be obtained by reaction of phenyl-substituted benzoxazin-4-ones of the formula ##STR15## with benzamidine compounds of the formula ##STR16## where R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 are as defined. The preparation of such benzoxazinone intermediates and the reaction with amidines are described in Helv.Chim.Acta 55, 1566-1595 (1972).
If in formula (1) A.sub.1 is a radical of the formula (1b) and R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 have the same meaning, the bis(resorcinyl)triazines according to the invention can be prepared, for example, in a three-step reaction, starting from cyanuric chloride. In this case the appropriate aminobenzoic acid ester is reacted with cyanuric chloride to give the dichlorotriazine compound of the formula ##STR17## The two resorcinol groups are then introduced in a generally known manner by Friedel-Crafts acylation of resorcinol in the presence of a Lewis acid, in particular aluminium chloride. These reactions are described, for example, in EP-A-165,608. Finally, the free p-hydroxyl groups are etherified, depending on the meaning of the radicals R.sub.1 and R.sub.2, by alkylation or acid-catalysed addition of glycidyl ethers. Detailed information for this can be taken from the synthesis examples.
Furthermore, the compounds of the formula (1) according to the invention can be prepared by dehydration of a dihydrotriazine compound of the formula ##STR18## R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and A.sub.1 are as defined in formula (1).
The dehydrating agent generally employed is chloranil. The dehydration of dihydrotriazine compounds to give 1,3,5-triazines with the aid of chloranil is known, for example, from Khim. Geteritsikl. Soedin. (2), pp. 350-353 (1969).
Compounds of the formula (1), in which A.sub.1 is a radical of the formula (1c) and R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 have the same meaning, can be prepared, for example, in a three-step reaction, starting from cyanuric chloride. In this case the appropriate N-alkylpyrrole is reacted selectively with cyanuric chloride in a Friedel-Crafts reaction to give the dichlorotriazine compound of the formula ##STR19## Q.sub.1 in this case is as defined in formula (1).
The two resorcinol groups are then introduced in a generally known manner by Friedel-Crafts acylation of resorcinol in the presence of a Lewis acid, in particular aluminium chloride. These reactions are described, for example, in EP-A-165,608. The free p-hydroxyl groups are etherified by alkylation or acid-catalysed addition of glycidyl ethers. Detailed information for this can be taken from the synthesis examples.
The compounds of the formula (1) according to the invention and other selected bis(resorcinyl)triazine compounds known from the prior art are particularly suitable as UV filters, i.e. for protecting ultraviolet-sensitive organic materials, in particular the skin and hair of humans and animals, from the harmful effects of UV radiation. These compounds are therefore suitable as sunscreens in cosmetic, pharmaceutical and veterinary medical preparations. These compounds can be used both in dissolved form and in the micronized state.

and

and cosmetically tolerable carriers or auxiliaries.
For cosmetic use, the sunscreens according to the invention usually have a mean particle size in the range from 0.02 to 2, preferably 0.05 to 1.5, and very particularly from 0.1 to 1.0.mu.. The insoluble UV absorbers according to the invention can be brought to the desired particle size by customary methods, e.g. grinding, using, for example, a jet, ball, vibration or hammer mill. Preferably, the grinding is carried out in the presence of 0.1 to 30, preferably 0.5 to 15% by weight, based on the UV absorber, of a grinding aid such as, for example, an alkylated vinylpyrrolidone polymer, a vinylpyrrolidone-vinyl acetate copolymer, an acyl glutamate or, in particular, a phospholipid.
Besides the UV absorbers according to the invention, the cosmetic compositions can additionally contain one or more further UV-protective substances, e.g. triazines, oxanilides, triazoles or amides containing vinyl groups or cinnamides. Such protective substances are described, for example, in GB-A-2,286,774 or alternatively are known from Cosmetics & Toiletries (107), 50 et seq. (1992).
The cosmetic compositions according to the invention contain 0.1 to 15, preferably 0.5 to 10% by weight, based on the total weight of the composition, of a UV absorber or of a mixture of UV absorbers and a cosmetically compatible auxiliary.
The cosmetic compositions can be prepared by physical mixing of the UV absorber(s) with the auxiliary by the usual methods, such as, for example, by simply stirring the individual components together.
The cosmetic compositions according to the invention can be formulated as a water-in-oil or oil-in-water emulsion, as an oil-in-alcohol lotion, as a vesicular dispersion of an ionic or non-ionic amphiphilic lipid, as a gel, solid stick or as an aerosol formulation.
As a water-in-oil or oil-in-water emulsion, the cosmetically compatible auxiliary preferably contains 5 to 50% of an oil phase, 5 to 20% of an emulsifier and 30 to 90% of water. The oil phase can in this case contain any oil suitable for cosmetic formulations, e.g. one or more hydrocarbon oils, a wax, a natural oil, a silicone oil, a fatty acid ester or a fatty alcohol. Preferred mono- or polyols are ethanol, isopropanol, propylene glycol, hexylene glycol, glycerol and sorbitol.
Any emulsifier which can be employed conventionally can be used for the cosmetic compositions according to the invention, e.g. one or more ethoxylated esters of natural derivatives, e.g. polyethoxylated esters of hydrogenated castor oil; or a silicone emulsifier such as silicone polyol; a free or ethoxylated fatty acid soap; an ethoxylated fatty alcohol; a free or ethoxylated sorbitan ester, an ethoxylated fatty acid; or an ethoxylated glyceride.
The cosmetic compositions can also contain further components such as emollients, emulsion stabilizers, skin moisturizers, skin bronzing accelerators, thickeners such as xanthan, moisture retention agents such as glycerol, preservatives, fragrances and colourants.
The cosmetic formulations according to the invention are distinguished by excellent protection of the human skin against the harmful influence of sunlight.
In the following examples, percentages are by weight. In the case of the bis(resorcinyl)triazine compounds employed, the amounts relate to the pure substance.

Under dry protective gas (nitrogen), 56.1 g (0.3 mol) of 4-bromoanisole, dissolved in 100 ml of THF, are slowly added dropwise at 60.degree. C. After the complete dissolution of the Mg turnings, the mixture is stirred at 60.degree. C. for 90 minutes. The Grignard solution is then added dropwise at 5.degree. C. under nitrogen in the course of 60 minutes to a solution of 55.3 g (0.3 mol) of cyanuric chloride in 150 ml of THF. The mixture is evaporated to dryness at room temperature, 500 ml of dil. hydrochloric acid are allowed to run in and the mixture is extracted with 300 ml of methylene chloride. For working-up, the solvent is removed in vacuo, and the semisolid residue is tritrated with a little isopropanol and filtered off with suction. Purification is carried out by recrystallization from toluene/hexane (1:1). 62.8 g (82% of theory) of 6-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2,4-dichloro-1,3,5-triazine are obtained (m.p.: 131-134.degree. C.).

At 60-65.degree. C., 52.1 g (0.39 mol) of aluminium chloride are slowly introduced and the mixture is stirred until evolution of HCl is finished (about 4 hours). The warm reaction solution is allowed to run into 750 ml of methanol/350 ml of dil. hydrochloric acid with stirring, and the solid is filtered off with suction and washed with water until neutral. Drying takes place at 100.degree. C. in vacuo. 61.1 g (89.1% of theory) of 2,4-bis(2,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-6-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3,5-triazine is obtained as a yellow powder.

Application Examples
Use examples for cosmetic sun protection
The sun protection factors were determined according to the method of Diffey and Robson J. Soc. Cosmet. Chem. 40, 127-133 (1989) using an SPF analyser (Optometrix, SPF 290)
To determine the photostabilities, the filter substances are dissolved in ethanol (c=1.multidot.10.sup.-5 -5.multidot.10.sup.-5 M) and irradiated (I.sub.UVB =0.4-8.0 mW/cm.sup.2) with stirring using a metal halide lamp (Macam).To convert to the solar spectrum (CIE D65-normal daylight, standardized to I.sub.UVB =0, 127 mW/cm.sup.2), the integral over the products of the wavelength-resolved lamp intensity and the corresponding absorption values of the respective UV absorber between 290 and 400 nm is calculated and divided by the integral over the products of the D65 light intensities and the corresponding absorption values of the particular UV absorber in the range between 290 and 400 nm. The half-life for decomposition under irradiation with the metal halide lamp is multiplied by this factor in order to obtain the corresponding half-life under solar irradiation. The half-life for photodecomposition under lamp irradiation is determined by UV-spectroscopic measurement of the extinction at the wavelength of the maximum absorption and subsequent exponential fit. Using the process described, the half-lives for photodecomposition in the D65 light are thus obtained.
