Abstract
Cationic aminoanthraquinones in which at least one cationic charge is delocalized on a 5-membered unsaturated polynitrogen-containing heterocycle, their use as a direct dye in dyeing compositions for keratinous materials, in particular for human keratinous fibers such as hair, dyeing compositions containing them, and dyeing methods using these compositions.
Description




The present invention relates to aminoanthraquinones containing at least one cationic group chosen from aliphatic chains containing at least one cationic charge delocalized on a 5-membered unsaturated polynitrogen-containing ring, their use as a direct dye in applications for dyeing keratinous materials, such as human keratinous fibers, for example hair, and dyeing compositions containing them.




It is known to dye keratinous fibers, and in particular hair, with dyeing compositions containing direct dyes. Direct dyes are dye molecules having an affinity for keratinous fibers. The dyeing method that uses them is a so-called direct dyeing method which comprises allowing the direct dyes to act on the fibers, and subsequently rinsing the fibers.




The colors resulting therefrom are temporary or semipermanent colors, because the nature of the interactions which link the direct dyes to the keratinous fiber, and their desorption from the surface and/or the core of the fiber are responsible for their weak dyeing power and their poor resistance to washings and perspiration.




Cationic aminoanthraquinones whose charge is localized on the nitrogen atom have already been described among the known direct dyes. Such aminoanthraquinones are described, for example, in French Patent No. 1,422,016 and its addition No. 87,902, No. 1,391,675, No. 1,401,163, No. 1,379,649, No. 1,430,089, No. 1,584,965, No. 2,050,397, and No. 2,548,895, U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,169,403, 5,314,505, 5,486,629, and 5,520,707, and European Patent Nos. 818,193 and 852,136.




However, in hair dyeing, direct dyes are being continually sought which exhibit increasingly better characteristics.




It is thus after major research studies carried out on this subject that the inventors have discovered new cationic aminoanthraquinones in which at least one cationic charge is delocalized on a five-membered unsaturated polynitrogen-containing heterocycle and contain at least one cationic group Z, Z being chosen from quaternized aliphatic chains, aliphatic chains containing at least one quaternized saturated ring, and aliphatic chains containing at least one quaternized unsaturated ring.




This new family of dyes can exhibit the very advantageous, characteristic feature of greater solubility in the dyeing media. These new dyes can also generate colors, by direct dyeing, having an intensity and a resistance to various attacks to which the hair may be subjected: light, adverse weather conditions, shampoos, and perspiration, which is substantially improved compared with that of the colors produced with known prior art cationic aminoanthraquinones.




This discovery forms the basis of the present invention.




A subject of the present invention is thus aminoanthraquinones of the formula (I):

The compounds of formula (I) in accordance with the invention may be easily obtained, according to methods well known in the state of the art for the production of quaternized amines, for example:




in a single step, by condensation of an anthraquinone containing a haloalkyl radical with a compound carrying a tertiary amine radical, or by condensation of an anthraquinone containing a tertiary amine radical with a compound carrying a haloalkyl radical; or




in two steps, by condensation of an anthraquinone containing a haloalkyl radical with a compound carrying a secondary amine, or by condensation of a halogenated or hydroxylated anthraquinone with an amino(disubstituted)alkylamine, followed by quaternization with an alkylating agent.




The quaternization step is generally, for the sake of convenience, the last step in the synthesis, but may occur earlier in the sequence of reactions leading to the preparation of the compounds of formula (I).




A subject of the invention is also dyeing compositions for keratinous materials, comprising, in a medium appropriate for dyeing, an effective quantity for dyeing keratinous materials of at least one cationic aminoanthraquinone of formula (I) defined above.




Another subject of the invention is direct dyeing compositions for human keratinous fibers, and in particular hair, comprising, in a medium appropriate for dyeing, an effective quantity for dyeing keratinous materials of at least one cationic aminoanthraquinone as defined above by formula (I).




Another subject of the invention is the use of the cationic aminoanthraquinones of formula (I), as direct dyes, in, or for the preparation of, dyeing compositions for keratinous materials, in particular for human keratinous fibers such as hair.




However other characteristics, aspects and advantages of the invention will emerge even more clearly on reading the description which follows, as well as the various concrete, but not at all limiting, examples intended to illustrate it.




In one embodiment of the dyeing composition in accordance with the invention, the amount of the at least one cationic aminoanthraquinone of formula (I) in the dyeing composition ranges from about 0.005 to about 12%, relative to the total weight of the dyeing composition. In another embodiment, the amount of the at least one cationic aminoanthraquinone ranges from about 0.05 to about 6% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition.




In order to obtain a variety of colors, the dyeing composition according to the invention may also contain, in addition to the cationic aminoanthraquinones of formula (I), at least one additional direct dye that is conventionally used in the art. Examples of the at least one additional direct dye include:




nitrobenzene dyes, such as nitrophenylenediamines, nitrodiphenylamines, nitroanilines, nitrophenol ethers, nitrophenols, and nitropyridines;




anthraquinone dyes other than those of formula (I);




mono- and diazo, triarylmethane, azine, acridine and xanthene dyes; and




metal-containing dyes.




The total amount of all these other direct addition dyes in the dye composition according to the present invention may range from about 0.05 to about 10% by weight relative to the total weight of the dyeing composition.




The cationic aminoanthraquinones of formula (I) may also be incorporated into dyeing compositions for oxidation dyeing which contains oxidation bases and optionally couplers, to increase the shimmer of the shades obtained with the oxidation dyes.




The medium (or carrier) appropriate for dyeing is generally water or a mixture of water and at least one organic solvent for solubilizing the compounds which would not be sufficiently soluble in water. Examples of organic solvents include lower C

alkanols, such as ethanol and isopropanol; glycerol; glycols and glycol ethers, such as 2-butoxyethanol, propylene glycol, propylene glycol monomethyl ether; aromatic alcohols, such as benzyl alcohol or phenoxyethanol; and similar products and mixtures thereof.




In one embodiment of the invention, the solvents may be present in an amount ranging from approximately 1 to approximately 40% by weight relative to the total weight of the dyeing composition. In another embodiment of the invention, the amount of solvents ranges from approximately 5 to approximately 30% by weight, relative to the weight of the composition.




It is also possible to add to the composition according to the invention fatty amides such as mono- and diethanolamides of acids derived from copra, lauric acid and oleic acid, in amounts ranging from about 0.05 to about 10% by weight, relative to the weight of the composition.




It is also possible to add to the composition according to the invention well-known state of the art surfactants of the anionic, cationic, nonionic, amphoteric or zwitterionic type or mixtures thereof. In one embodiment of the invention, these surfactants can be present in the composition in an amount ranging from about 0.1 to about 50% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition. In another embodiment of the invention, the amount of these surfactants ranges from about 1 to about 20% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition.




It is also possible to use thickening agents in an amount ranging from about 0.2 to about 5% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition.




The dyeing composition according to the invention may contain, in addition, various customary adjuvants, such as antioxidants, perfumes, sequestering agents, dispersing agents, hair conditioners, preservatives, and opacifying agents, as well as any other adjuvant normally used in dyeing keratinous materials.




Of course persons skilled in the art will be careful to choose the optional additional compounds mentioned above such that the advantageous properties intrinsically attached to the dyeing composition according to the invention are not, or not substantially adversely modified by the addition(s) envisaged.




The dyeing composition according to the invention may be formulated at acidic, neutral or alkaline pH, it being possible for the pH to vary, for example, from approximately 3 to approximately 12. In one embodiment of the invention, the pH varies from approximately 5 to approximately 11. The pH can be adjusted by means of previously well-known alkalinizing agents or acidifying agents or buffers.

The composition applied to the hair may be provided in various forms, such as in liquid, cream or gel form, or in any other form appropriate for dyeing keratinous fibers. In particular, it can be packaged under pressure in an aerosol can in the presence of a propellant and can form a foam.




Another subject of the present invention relates to a method of dyeing keratinous fibers, in particular human keratinous fibers such as hair, by direct dyeing, comprising allowing a dyeing composition containing at least one cationic aminoanthraquinone of formula (I) to act on dry or wet keratinous fibers. It is possible to use the composition according to the invention as a leave-in composition, that is to say that after applying the composition to the fibers, they are dried without intermediate rinsing.




In one embodiment, the process comprises allowing the composition to act on the fibers for an exposure time ranging from 3 to 60 minutes approximately, rinsing the fibers, optionally washing the fibers, and rinsing the fibers again and drying the fibers. In another embodiment of the invention, the process is similar to that just described, except that the exposure time ranges 5 to 45 minutes approximately.




Concrete and nonlimiting examples illustrating the invention will now be given.
