Hairdyeing composition and method

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to compounds which are useful as cosmetic active ingredients, e.g., hair dyes or skin tanning agents.
There is a need for substances and cosmetic preparations which tan the human skin without the need for irradiation by light of a suitable wavelength. All tanning of the skin which is caused by such radiation energy is linked with inflammatory processes in the tissue. These inflammatory processes can be suppressed to a minimum by using suitable light-screening filters, but irritation of the skin nevertheless still occurs and can lead, in particular, to delayed injuries.
Thus, the use of skin tanning agents is highly desirable in order to obviate the need for tanning light radiation while imparting the desired color to the skin. Only dihydroxyacetone has hitherto gained acceptance as a skin tanning agent. However, it is possible to achieve only a synthetic yellow-brown pigmenting using this compound. A red-brown coloration of the skin is much more desirable, for example, for people having a skin color which is in itself pale.
It is known that mucondialdehyde (compound of formula III herein; R.sup.2 to R.sup.5 =H and R.sup.8 =CHO) in dilute aqueous solution can dye proteinaceous substances, and, in particular, also skin, a very fast and intense chocolate brown (Fischer, Lowenberg, Chem. Ber. 66, 665 [1933]). However, neither mucondialdehyde nor its purely aqueous solutions could hitherto be used as a skin tanning agent since the chemical process effecting the tanning proceeds very rapidly and, as a result, produces a blotchy or stripy coloration. The uniform skin coloration desired by consumers cannot be achieved.
The compound of formula III, herein, wherein R.sup.2 -R.sup.5 =H and R.sup.8 =--CH(OC.sub.2 H.sub.5).sub.2 is also known per se and is disclosed in Fischer, Lowenberg, Chem.Ber. 66, 665 [1933]. However, the compound is not known to be useful as a cosmetic agent, e.g., as a skin tanning or hair dyeing active ingredient.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Accordingly, it is an object of this invention to provide compounds and cosmetic formulations which are suitable for use as skin tanning agents and especially without the need for skin irradiation.
It is another object of this invention to provide such compounds and cosmetic formulations which are suitable for use as hair dyes.
Upon further study of the specification and appended claims, further objects and advantages of this invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art.
These objects have been achieved by providing new compounds of formula I
R.sup.1 --C(R.sup.2).dbd.C(R.sup.3)--C(R.sup.4).dbd.C(R.sup.5)--R.sup.1 I
wherein R.sup.1 is dimethoxymethyl, --CH(OR.sup.6).sub.2, 1,3-dioxolan-2-yl, 4-methyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-yl or 1,3-dioxan-2-yl; R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 independently are hydrogen, methyl or ethyl; and R.sup.6 is alkyl of 3-8 carbon atoms.
These objects have also been achieved by providing cosmetic compositions comprising at least one compound of formula II
R.sup.7 --C(R.sup.2).dbd.C(R.sup.3)--C(R.sup.4).dbd.C(R.sup.5)--R.sup.7 II
wherein R.sup.7 is diethoxymethyl or R.sup.1 ; and R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 independently are hydrogen, methyl or ethyl and cosmetically acceptable carriers and/or additives; and by providing compositions comprising at least one compound of formula III
R.sup.8 --C(R.sup.2).dbd.C(R.sup.3)--C(R.sup.4).dbd.C(R.sup.5)--R.sup.8 III
wherein R.sup.8 is --CHO or R.sup.7 ; and R.sup.2 to R.sup.5 are as defined above, and dihydroxyacetone. Conventional cosmetically acceptable carriers and/or additives, of course, may also be present.
This invention also relates to a method for tanning human skin which comprises treating the skin with an amount of a compound of formula II, or an amount of a composition containing a compound of formula III and dihydroxyacetone, effective to tan human skin.
This invention also relates to a method for dyeing human hair which comprises treating the hair with an amount of a compound of formula II, or an amount of a compound of formula III and dihydroxyacetone, effective to dye human hair.
DETAILED DISCUSSION
It has now been found that the compounds of formula I and the compositions containing the compounds of formula II can dye human skin a uniform red-brown color. The compositions containing the compounds of formula III also color the skin a uniform red-brown if they are used simultaneously with dihydroxyacetone. Since, as already mentioned, dihydroxyacetone, causes a yellow-brown coloration of the skin, the simultaneous use of the compounds of formula III with dihydroxyacetone makes it possible to produce various color gradations between yellow-brown and red-brown. The particular color shade obtained depends on the relative concentrations of the compound(s) of formula III and of dihydroxyacetone.
For formula I, R.sup.1 is preferably dimethoxymethyl, 1,3-dioxolan-2-yl or 4-methyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-yl. When R.sup.1 is --CH(OR.sup.6).sub.2, R.sup.6 is preferably an unbranched alkyl radical of 3-8, (e.g., 4-8 or 5-8 also) in particular of 3 or 4 carbon atoms, such as propyl or butyl. However, R.sup.6 can also be branched alkyl of 3-8, in particular of 3 or 4 carbon atoms, for example isopropyl sec-butyl. Furthermore, other suitable alkyl radicals for R.sup.6 include: pentyl, hexyl, heptyl, octyl, isopentyl and isohexyl.
The radicals R.sup.2 to R.sup.5 are preferably identical and are, in particular, hydrogen. When one of the radicals R.sup.2 to R.sup.5 is not hydrogen, it is preferred that the radicals R.sup.2 and R.sup.5 or R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 be identical.
Those compounds of the formula I in which at least one of the symbols R.sup.1 to R.sup.6 has one of the meanings individually mentioned above are preferred; those compounds of the formula I in which at least one of the symbols R.sup.1 to R.sup.6 has one of the meanings indicated above as being preferred are particularly preferred.
Some of these preferred groups of compounds can be characterized by the sub-formulae Ia to Iq below, which otherwise correspond to the formula I and in which the symbols not described in more detail have the meaning indicated for formula I, but wherein

For formula II, R.sup.7 is, in particular, diethoxymethyl. When R.sup.7 is the same as R.sup.1, it has, above all, the meanings for R.sup.1 mentioned above as being preferred.
Those compositions which contain compounds of the formula II in which at least one of the symbols R.sup.7 and R.sup.2 to R.sup.5 has one of the meanings individually mentioned above, and in particular one of the meanings indicated above as being particularly preferred, are preferred. Some of the groups of compounds contained in these preferred compositions can be characterized by the sub-formulae IIa to IIl below, which otherwise correspond to formula II and in which the symbols not described in more detail have the meanings indicated for formula II, but wherein
in IIa R.sup.7 =dimethoxymethyl, diethoxymethyl, 1,3-dioxolan-2-yl or 4-methyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-yl;
in IIb R.sup.7 =dimethoxymethyl, diethoxymethyl, 1,3-dioxolan-2-yl or 4-methyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-yl; and R.sup.2 =R.sup.5 =H;

in IIl R.sup.7 =diethoxymethyl; and R.sup.2 =R.sup.3 =R.sup.4 =R.sup.5 =H.
For formula III, the radical R.sup.8 is, in particular --CHO. When it is the same as R.sup.7, it has, above all, the meanings for this radical indicated as being preferred.
Thus, according to this invention, those compositions which contain, in addition to dihydroxyacetone, at least one compound of formula III in which at least one of the symbols R.sup.8 and R.sup.2 to R.sup.5 has one of the meanings individually mentioned above, and in particular one of the meanings indicated above as being preferred, are also preferred.
Some of these preferred compositions contain groups of compound which are characterized by the sub-formulae IIIa to IIIg below, which otherwise correspond to the formula III and in which the symbols not described in more detail have the meanings indicated for formula III, but wherein
in IIIa R.sup.8 =--CHO, dimethoxymethyl, diethoxymethyl, 1,3-dioxolan-2-yl or 4-methyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-yl;
in IIIb R.sup.8 =--CHO or diethoxymethyl; in IIIc R.sup.8 =--CHO or diethoxymethyl; and R.sup.2 =R.sup.5 =H;
in IIId R.sup.8 =--CHO or diethoxymethyl; and R.sup.3 =R.sup.4 =H;

in IIIg R.sup.8 =--CHO or diethoxymethyl; and R.sup.2 =R.sup.3 =R.sup.4 =R.sup.5 =H.
The compounds of formula I and the new compounds of the formulae II and III can be prepared by methods which are in themselves known and which are described, for example, for the tetraethylacetal of mucondialdehyde; compare Fischer, Lowenberg, Chem.Ber. 66, 665 [1933]. The chemical processes described below for the preparation of the starting compounds, and also of the compounds of formula I and of the new compounds of formulae II and III, are analogous processes which are carried out under reaction conditions which are in themselves known, such as are given in the literature (for example in standard works of preparative organic chemistry, such as HOUBEL-WEYL, Methoden der organischen Chemie (Methods of Organic Chemistry), Georg-Thieme-Verlag Stuttgart) for analogous reactions.
This invention furthermore relates to a process for the preparation of a compound of formula I, which consists essentially in reacting a compound of formula IV
OHC--C(R.sup.2).dbd.C(R.sup.3)--C(R.sup.4).dbd.C(R.sup.5)--CHO IV
wherein R.sup.2 -R.sup.5 are as defined above, with an acetalizing agent; in reacting a compound of formula V
R.sup.1 --CBr(R.sup.2)--CH(R.sup.3)--CH(R.sup.4)--CBr(R.sup.5)--R.sup.1 V
wherein R.sup.1 -R.sup.5 are as defined above, with a dehydrobrominating agent; or in reacting a compound of formula VI
R.sup.3 --CO--CO--R.sup.4 VI
wherein R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 are as defined above, with a compound of formula VII
(C.sub.6 H.sub.5).sub.3 P.dbd.C(R.sup.9)--R.sup.1 VII
wherein R.sup.9 is R.sup.2 or R.sup.5 and R.sup.1 is as defined above.
The compounds of formula IV are known (Fisher Lowenberg, Chem. Ber. 66, 665 (1933) or can be easily obtained from the compounds of formula VI by reaction with a Witting reagent, (C.sub.6 H.sub.5).sub.3 P.dbd.CH--CHO in analogy to the methods and under reaction conditions as described in Ko.beta.mehl, Bohn, Chem. Ber. 107, 2791 [1974].
Examples of suitable acetalizing agents with which the compounds of formula IV can be reacted to produce the compounds of formula I are alcohols of the formula R.sup.10 OH as well as ethylene glycol, propylene glycol and trimethylene glycol, optionally in the presence of orthoformates of formula VIII
HC(OR.sup.10).sub.3 VIII
wherein R.sup.10 is methyl or alkyl of 3-8 carbon atoms, or in the presence of acid catalysts, for example organic acids, above all organic carboxylic acids or sulphonic acids, such as alkanecarboxylic acids (for example formic acid, butyric acid palmitic acid or stearic acid), or, for example, benzenesulphonic acid, p-toluenesulphonic acid, .alpha.-naphthylsulphonic acid or camphorsulphonic acid. Inorganic oxides, such as SiO.sub.2, Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 or ZrO.sub.2, which can be optionally partially hydrated, or mixtures thereof are also suitable catalysts.
Preferred reaction temperatures are room temperatures and slightly elevated temperatures up to about 45.degree. C. A range from about -10.degree. to +100.degree. C. is also possible as the temperature interval. The water which forms during the reaction can be removed, if appropriate, by azeotropic distillation. For this it is necessary to add a water-immiscible solvent, for example, benzene or toluene, to the reaction mixture.
The compounds of formula V are obtainable, for example, by treating the dialdehydes OHC--CH(R.sup.2)--CH(R.sup.3)--CH(R.sup.4)--CH(R.sup.5)--CHO with bromine in a solvent, for example, chloroform, at temperatures between about -20.degree. and about -5.degree. C., and then treating the reaction mixture with an alcohol R.sup.10 OH at room temperature.
The compounds of formula V are converted into the desired compounds of formula I by reaction with a dehydrobrominating agent. Preferred dehydrobrominating agents include solid alkali metal hydroxides, in particular potassium hydroxide, but also tertiary organic bases, such as quinoline. The dehydrobromination is preferably carried out at elevated temperature, for example, between 90.degree. and 160.degree. C.; it is particularly advantageous to carry out the reaction at the boiling point of the reaction mixture, and if appropriate under reduced pressure.
The compounds of formula VI are known; preferred such compounds include glyoxal and diacetyl.
The compounds of formula VII can be prepared in a manner which is in itself known from triphenylphosphine and the halogenoacetals R.sup.9 --CHX--R.sup.1 in the presence of a strong base, such as sodium hydride. The reaction of a compound of formula VI with a compound of formula VII is carried out under the conditions which are known for Wittig reactions.
Most of the compounds of formula VIII are known; new compounds of the formula VIII can be prepared by processes analogous to those for the corresponding known compounds.
The compositions according to this invention can be prepared as greasy or non-greasy creams, ointments, liquid formulations (lotions, tinctures or oils) or also as gels, from the compounds of formula II and in particular the compounds of formula I, or from the compounds of formula III, simultaneously using dihydroxyacetone, by adding suitable carriers and/or additives which are conventional in cosmetics. Examples of suitable carriers and/or additives are: hydrocarbons, such as solid or liquid paraffin, crystal oil, ceresin, ozokerite and montan wax; vegetable or animal oils, fats and waxes, such as olive oil, groundnut oil, sesame oil or almond oil, cacao butter, beeswax, mineral wax or carnauba wax, wool fat and spermaceti; fatty acids and fatty acid esters, such as stearic acid, palmitic acid, oleic acid, glycerol monostearate or distearate, glycerol monooleate, isopropyl myristate, isopropyl stearate and butyl stearate; alcohols, such as ethyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, cetyl alcoyol, stearyl alcohol, palmityl alcohol and hexyldodecyl alcohol; polyhydric alcohols, such as glycol, glycerol and sorbitol, which serve as humectants; emulsifiers of oil-in-water and water-in-oil systems, the commercially available ionic or non-ionic, cationic or anionic or ampholytic emulsifiers being possible; and thickeners such as methylcellulose, ethylcellulose or carboxymethylcellulose, polyacrylic acid, tragacanth, agar-agar and gelatin. Furthermore, additives such as perfumes, preservatives, skin care agents or physiologically acceptable dyestuffs can also, of course, be added, as required or as desired.
The compositions of this invention can additionally contain one or more UV absorbers, such as sodium 2-phenylbenzimidazole-5-sulphonate, sodium 3,4-dimethylphenylglyoxylate, 4-phenylbenzophenone, isooctyl 4-phenylbenzophenone-2'-carboxylate, p-methoxycinnamates, 2-phenyl-5-methylbenzoxazole, p-dimethylaminobenzoates, DL-tolylidene-camphor or DL-benzylidene-camphor.
The compositions of this invention contain the compounds of formula II in active and effective concentrations. In general, such compositions contain 0.03-20.0%, preferably 0.1-8.0%, most preferably 0.2 and 4.5% by weight of a compound(s) of formula II.
As already mentioned, this invention also relates to compositions which contain, in addition to carriers and/or additives which are conventional in cosmetics, at least one compound of formula III and dihydroxyacetone. Suitable carriers and/or additives include those mentioned above for formula I. The total content of active compounds in these compositions, when they are to be used for tanning skin, is between 0.1 and 30.0% by weight, preferably between 0.2 and 15.0% by weight and in particular between 1.0 and 12.5% by weight. The ratio between dihydroxyacetone and the compound(s) of formula III can vary over a wide range. As a rule, the proportion of dihydroxyacetone relative to the total amount of the tanning active compounds, is at least 40.0% by weight and at most about 99.85% by weight. Those agents are preferred in which the dihydroxyacetone makes up 55.0-99.5% by weight, and in particular 67.0-96.2% by weight (in each case relative to the total amount of the tanning substances). Compositions in which 0.03-0.30, preferably 0.04-0.20, parts by weight of compound(s) of formula III are present per one part by weight of dihydroxyacetone are particularly advantageous.
Although the final color shade is achieved only after several hours, frequently only on the next day when dihydroxyacetone is used alone, when the compositions of this invention, containing a compound of formula III as well as dihydroxyacetone, are used, final color shades are surprisingly achieved after only a short time, as a rule within about 30 minutes. The presence of a compound of formula III therefore has a greatly accelerating influence on the reaction on which the yellow-brown coloration of the skin by dihydroxyacetone is based.
It is particularly preferred to establish a pH value of about 2-7, in particular of about 5-6, in the compositions containing a compound of formula III as well as dihydroxyacetone by adding suitable buffering substances. Suitable buffer substances include: acids, preferably organic acids mixed with their corresponding alkali metal salts or ammonium salts. The alkali metal salts used are preferably the sodium salts; the ammonium salts used are those which are derived from amines which are customary in cosmetics, preferably secondary or tertiary amines, for example, from diethylamine, triethanolamine, bis-(2-hydroxypropyl)-amine, diethanolamine or morpholine, and also from ammonia. Preferred organic acids are hydroxycarboxylic acids (fruit acids), such as saccharic acids, tartaric acid, citric acid or lactic acid; but also include other acids, above all aliphatic acids, such as acetic acid, succinic acid, etc.; phosphoric acid and also hydrochloric acid.
As already mentioned, the cosmetic compositions described above are also useful for dyeing hair brown. For this use, they can then contain the active compounds in significantly higher concentrations than have been indicated for coloring skin. Hair colorants according to this invention contain, for example, between about 2.0 and 98.0% by weight, as a rule between about 3.0 and 60.0% by weight and in particular between 5.0 and 15.0% by weight, of compounds of formula II.
When they are to be used for dyeing hair on the head of a human, the compositions which contain at least one compound of formula III and dihydroxyacetone have similar compositions as indicated above for hair colorants containing compounds of formula II. However, the % by weight in this case refers to the total amount of active coloring substances. However, in contrast to skin coloring compositions, the proportion of compounds of formula III as a rule exceeds the proportion of the dihydroxyacetone present. Thus, for example, up to 99, preferably 5.0-60.0, in particular 5.0-20.0 parts by weight of compounds of formula III can be present per 1 part by weight of dihydroxyacetone. The compounds of formula III may also be used alone as hair colorants.
This invention also includes concentrates which contain a stabilizer and a carrier in addition to a relatively high content of compounds of formula II. These are also particularly valuable since they can be converted in a simple manner into cosmetic preparations desired by consumers by diluting and/or incorporating additional cosmetic substances. These stabilized active compound concentrates contain up to about 99% by weight, preferably, 5.0-60.0% by weight and in particular 5.0-20.0% by weight, of compounds of formula II in addition to 0.01-10.0% by weight, preferably about 1.0-3.0% by weight, of stabilizer. Suitable stabilizers, e.g., for stabilizing against chemical degradation, e.g., oxidation, i.e., for prolongation of activity of the active compound, include tertiary amines, preferably those which contain at least one relatively long carbon chain of more than 4 and up to 22 carbon atoms, and a total of more than 5 carbon atoms, such as dimethyldecylamine, diethyldecylamine, dimethyllaurylamine, dimethylmyristylamine, dimethylcetylamine, diethylcetylamine and dimethylstearylamine. Suitable carriers which are added to make the mixture up to 100% by weight are dry cosmetic carriers, above all triglycerides, the fatty acid radicals of which contain, in particular, 8-12 carbon atoms, liquid fatty acid esters of aliphatic alcohols and liquid paraffins.

The following preferred specific embodiments are, therefore, to be construed as merely illustrative, and not limitative of the remainder of the disclosure in any way whatsoever. In the following examples, all temperatures are set forth uncorrected in degrees Celsius; unless otherwise indicated, all parts and percentages are by weight.
