Hair-growth agent

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to a hair-growing (restoration) agent and a carnitine derivative having a hair-growing action.
As energy required for growth of hair, there has generally been used ATP which is generated by metabolism of glucose through glycolysis system and a TCA cycle. However, in male pattern alopecia, phosphofructokinase (PFKase) which is one of enzymes catalyzing glycolysis system is prohibited by male hormones to cause a state that supply of energy is suppressed.
In the prior art, there have been known hair tonics containing pentadecanoic acid monoglyceride and a pelargonic acid ester or a heptadecanoic acid ester of carnitine (3-carboxy-2-hydroxypropyltrimethylammonium hydroxide, intramolecular salt) as an active ingredient (Japanese Patent Publications No. 41363/1988 and No. 45533/1994). Also, there has been known a hair tonic containing a straight aliphatic monovalent alcohol having odd-numbered carbon chain (5 to 25) length as an active ingredient (Japanese Patent Publication No. 41364/1988). Further, in Japanese Provisional Patent Publication No. 199905/1989, it has been described that .gamma.-trialkylammonium-.beta.-hydroxybutyrate chloride (carnitine-hydrochloride) has a hair-nourishing action.
On the other hand, in Japanese Provisional Patent Publication No. 339218/1993, there have been disclosed carnitine derivatives such as undecanoyl-L-carnitine undecyl ester chloride ((R) -2-undecanoyloxy-3-undecyloxycarbonylpropyl)-trimethylammonium chloride). It has been described that these compounds have antibacterial actions, but there is no description regarding a hair-growing action. In Japanese Provisional Patent Publication No. 339219/1993, it has been described that the same compounds as described in Japanese Provisional Patent Publication No. 339218/1993 have antifungal actions, but there is no description regarding a hair-growing action. Further, in Japanese Provisional Patent Publication No. 167262/1980, it has been described that propionylcarnitine isopropyl ester and isobutyrylcarnitine isobutyl ester are useful as an agent for curing myocardial low constriction, but there is no description regarding a hair-growing action.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
An object of the present invention is to provide an excellent hair-growing (restoration) agent containing a carnitine derivative as an active ingredient.
That is, the present invention relates to a hair-growing (restoration) agent which comprises a carnitine derivative represented by the formula (I): ##STR2## wherein R.sup.1 to R.sup.3 each represent an alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms; R.sup.4 represents an aliphatic acyl group having 3 to 31 carbon atoms which may be substituted; R.sup.5 represents an alkyl group having 3 to 31 carbon atoms which may be substituted, or an alkenyl group having 3 to 31 carbon atoms which may be substituted; and X.sup.- represents an anion of a pharmaceutically acceptable acid,
as an active ingredient.
The carnitine derivative (I) of the present invention has an excellent hair-growing action as compared with a conventional hair-growing (restoration) agent and therefore is useful as a hair-growing (restoration) agent.

C. under argon atmosphere. The solvent of the reaction mixture was removed under reduced pressure. To the residue was added 20 ml of diethyl ether, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature. Thereafter, the precipitates were collected by filtration, washed with diethyl ether, and dried to give 2.5 g of crude (R)-(2-tridecanoyloxy-3-tridecyloxycarbonylpropyl)trimethylammonium bromide as a colorless solid. To 2.5 g of the product thus obtained was added 50 ml of water, and the mixture was stirred for 1 hour at room temperature and then extracted with tetrahydrofuran-ethyl acetate (1:1). To the extracted organic layer were added 100 ml of a saturated saline solution and 30 ml of water, and the mixture was stirred for 18 hours at room temperature. Thereafter, the organic layer was collected, washed with a saturated saline solution and then water, and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The residue was azeotroped with ethyl acetate and then dried at room temperature under reduced pressure to afford 1.75 g of a crude desired product. The product obtained was recrystallized from ethyl acetate to provide 1.58 g of (R)-(2-tridecanoyloxy-3-tridecyloxycarbonylpropyl)trimethylammonium chloride as colorless crystals.

EXAMPLE 3
Under ice cooling, oxalyl chloride (1.41 g, 11.1 mmol) was added dropwise to a suspension of (R)-(3-carboxy-2-pentadecanoyloxypropyl)trimethylammonium chloride (2 g, 4.74 mmol) in 10 ml of methylene chloride, and the mixture was then stirred for 2.5 hours at room temperature. After the solvent of the mixture was removed under reduced pressure, the residue was azeotroped with toluene (15 ml.times.2) to give crude acid chloride as a colorless solid. To a solution of the acid chloride in 10 ml of methylene chloride was added dropwise 1-undecanol (1.49 ml, 7.2 mmol) under argon atmosphere while ice cooling. After the reaction mixture was stirred for 2.5 hours under ice cooling and then stirred for 30 minutes at room temperature, and the solvent was removed. To the residue was added 60 ml of diethyl ether, and the mixture was stirred for 15 minutes at room temperature. The precipitates were collected by filtration, washed with diethyl ether and then dried to give 2.62 g of a crude desired product as a colorless solid. To 2.62 g of the product obtained was added 50 ml of water, and the mixture was stirred for 1 hour at room temperature and then extracted with tetrahydrofuran-ethyl acetate (1:1). The solvent of the extracts was removed under reduced pressure, and the residue was azeotroped with ethyl acetate. Thereafter, the residual solid was recrystallized from acetonitrile to afford 2.0 g of (R)-(2-pentadecanoyloxy-3-undecyloxycarbonylpropyl)trimethylammonium chloride as colorless crystals.

REFERENCE EXAMPLE 15
L-Carnitine (2.0 g, 12.4 mmol) was dissolved in 3 ml of trifluoroacetic acid under heating (at 60.degree. C.), and 8 ml (37.2 mmol) of 10-undecenoyl chloride was added to the solution. The vessel was closed tightly, and the mixture was vigorously shaken by hands for 5 minutes at the same temperature until the mixture became homogeneous. The homogeneous solution was further stirred for 10 minutes at the same temperature. After the solvent of the reaction mixture was removed, the residue was dissolved in 100 ml of petroleum ether, the solution was poured into 100 ml of ice water, and the mixture was stirred for 30 minutes at room temperature. Subsequently, the mixture was washed with a solution of 100 ml of ethanol and 100 ml of ether. The aqueous layer was further washed twice with a mixture of 60 ml of ethanol and 60 ml of ether. The separated aqueous layer was extracted with 120 ml of n-butanol after addition of a suitable amount of water. The n-butanol layer was successively washed with 40 ml of water, 40 ml of a phosphate buffer (67 mmol, pH 7.2) and then 40 ml of water. The solvent was removed, and the residue was azeotroped with toluene and ethyl acetate and recrystallized from ethyl acetate to give 1.81 g of (R)-�3-carboxy-2-(10-undecenoyloxypropyl)!trimethylammonium chloride as colorless crystals.
