The present invention relates to the use of specific amides in the skincare field, and in particular as a skin moisturizer, novel urea derivatives and also the cosmetic or dermatological compositions contained therein.
The Stratum Corneum, which forms the interface with the dehydrating external environment, serves in particular to retard the excessive water loss from the deeper layers of the epidermis. The Stratum Corneum also protects against mechanical attack and the passage of chemical products and foreign microorganisms. It also constitutes the first line of defence against UV radiation.
The Stratum Corneum, which is 10 μm thick, is composed of vertically stacked corneocytes surrounded by a matrix of lipid-enriched membranes. Thus, it is a two-compartment system that may be compared to a brick wall, composed of anuclear cells (the “bricks”) and of intercellular lamellar membranes (the “cement”).
Urea is one of the ingredients widely used in moisturizing formulations. However, it can greatly modify the skin barrier by increasing the transepidermal water loss (TWL), which significantly reduces the barrier function of the Stratum Corneum.
Glycerol, another reference active agent in this field, has the drawback of making the formulations tacky when it is used at high concentration.
There is thus a need to find alternative solutions in the field of skin moisturization.
The inventors have discovered that certain amides of general formula (I) described below are good moisturizers and have a beneficial effect in terms of elasticity of the Stratum Corneum.
Thus, a subject of the present invention is the cosmetic use, as a skin moisturizer, of the compounds of general formula (I):

The compounds of formula (I) for which R3═R4═H (compounds 1a) can be obtained by reacting the methyl ester of threonic acid or erythronic acid (A) (these two compounds differ from one another according to the configuration of the asymmetrical carbons) with an amine HN(R1) (R2) in particular in ethanol or acetonitrile, at a temperature of approximately 60° C.
The compounds of formula (I) for which —OR3 and —OR4 denote a phosphate group (compounds 1b) can be prepared by deprotonation of the methyl ester of threonic acid or erythronic acid (A) in the presence of a base such as sodium hydride or triethylamine or pyridine, and then nucleophilic substitution by reaction with a phosphating agent such as a dialkyl phosphate chloride (for example, dimethyl chlorophosphate or diphenyl chlorophosphate) or a trialkyl phosphite (for example, trimethyl phosphite or tribenzyl phosphite) or alternatively a pyrophosphate (for example, tetrabenzyl pyrophosphate). The phosphate esters thus obtained are subsequently converted to phosphate or their salt, either by hydrolysis in an acidic or basic medium, or by treatment using a bromide ion (for example, lithium bromide or trimethylsilyl bromide), or by hydrogenolysis using molecular hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst (for example, palladium-based or platinum-based).
These reactions are known from the following articles:
The compounds of formula (I) for which the two groups R3 taken together form an isopropylidene group and R4═H (compounds 1c) can be prepared by reacting the methyl ester of threonic acid or erythronic acid (A) with acetone so as to form the isopropylidene derivative (B) which, by reacting with an amine HN(R) (R2), in particular in ethanol or acetonitrile, at a temperature of approximately 60° C., gives the compound (Ic).
The compounds of formula (I) for which the two groups R3 taken together form an isopropylidene group and —OR4 denotes a phosphate group (compounds 1d) can be prepared by deprotonation of the isopropylidene derivative (B) in the presence of a base such as sodium hydride or triethylamine or pyridine, and then nucleophilic substitution by reaction with a phosphating agent such as an alkyl phosphate chloride (for example, dimethyl chlorophosphate or diphenyl chlorophosphate) or a trialkylphosphite (for example, tribenzyl phosphite) or alternatively a pyrophosphate (for example, tetrabenzyl pyrophosphate). The phosphate esters thus obtained are subsequently converted to phosphate or their salt as described above. These compounds subsequently react with an amine HN(R1) (R2), in particular in ethanol or acetonitrile, at a temperature of approximately 60° C., and give the compound (Id).
The compounds of formula (I) for which R3═H and —OR4 denotes a phosphate group (compounds (Ie) can be prepared by deprotection of the compound (Id), in particular with dilute hydrochloric acid or an acidic resin (for example, the styrene-divinylbenzene resin comprising a sulphonic acid functional group, sold under the name Dowex 50WX 8 hydrogen form 100-200 mesh from Dow Chemical, and in particular sold by the company Sigma-Aldrich) in a solvent such as water, ethanol or tetrahydrofuran, in particular at a temperature ranging from 20° C. to 60° C.
According to another method of synthesis (Scheme II), the compounds of formula (I) for which R3═R4═H (compounds 1a) can be prepared by mixing, in particular at a temperature of between 0 and 100° C., D-erythronolactone (C) and an amine R1—NH—R2, without solvent or in a polar, protic or aprotic solvent, for instance water, ethanol, methanol or acetonitrile.
The compounds of formula (I) for which —OR3 denotes a phosphate group and R4═H (compounds 1f) can be prepared by deprotonation of the D-erythronolactone (C) in the presence of a base such as sodium hydride or triethylamine or pyridine, and then nucleophilic substitution by reaction with a phosphating agent such as a dialkyl phosphate chloride (for example, dimethyl chlorophosphate or diphenyl chlorophosphate) or a trialkyl phosphite (for example, dimethyl phosphite or tribenzyl phosphite) or alternatively a pyrophosphate (for example, tetrabenzyl pyrophosphate). The phosphate esters thus obtained are subsequently converted to phosphate or their salt as described above, so as to form the compound (D), which subsequently reacts with an amine HN(R1) (R2) in particular in an apolar solvent such as dichloromethane, at a temperature of approximately 60° C. The step for conversion of the phosphate esters to phosphates and their salts can be carried out after the formation of the amide.
The compounds of formula (I) for which the two groups R3 taken together form an isopropylidene group and —OR4═H (compounds 1c) can be prepared by reacting the isopropylidene of D-erythronolactone (E) (compound known under CAS No. 25581-41-3) with an amine HN(R1) (R2) in particular in a polar, protic or aprotic solvent, or an apolar solvent (for example, dichloromethane), at a temperature of between 30 and 60° C.
The compounds of formula (I) for which R3═H and —OR4 denotes a phosphate group (compounds 1e) can be prepared from the compound (Ic) by phosphation of the free hydroxyl by reaction with a phosphating agent as described above, and then by deprotection, in particular with dilute hydrochloric acid or an acidic resin (for example, the styrene-divinylbenzene resin comprising a sulphonic acid functional group, sold under the name Dowex® 50WX 8 hydrogen form 100-200 mesh from Dow Chemical, and in particular sold by the company Sigma-Aldrich), in a solvent such as water, ethanol or tetrahydrofuran, in particular at a temperature ranging from 20° C. to 60° C.
The methods of synthesis of Scheme II make it possible to prepare compounds with an R, R stereochemistry with respect to the 2 asymmetrical carbons.
It should be noted that, when the R1 and/or R2 groups denote a saturated C1-C6 or unsaturated C2-C6 linear alkyl group or saturated or unsaturated C3-C6 branched alkyl group, substituted with one or more CO2R6 groups, which may be identical or different, the latter can be obtained by means of simple chemical conversions known to those skilled in the art, such as an esterification (of a —COOH group), a saponification or a hydrolysis (of a corresponding ester group).
The present invention also relates to a composition comprising, in a physiologically acceptable medium, a compound of formula (II) as described above. The composition is in particular a cosmetic or dermatological composition.

The exemplified cosmetic formulations applied to the skin show a good skin-moisturizing effect.
A test was performed to evaluate the moisturizing potential of the compounds of the invention which are formulated in a 3% aqueous solution.
The tests carried out were performed under the standard conditions on stratum corneum in a chamber at controlled temperature and humidity (T=30° C. and RH=75%). The elastic modulus measurements are performed on each control test specimen and then 2 hours and 20 hours after application of the treatment. The relative variation in the modulus makes it possible to assess the plasticizing effect of the active agent on the Stratum Corneum.
The mean and the standard deviation were calculated on 10 stratum corneum samples.
Compounds 3, 5, 9, 14 and 15 have a significant plasticizing effect on the stratum corneum, compounds 14 and 15 being the most effective.
It emerges from this test that the compounds for use according to the invention have different “moisturizing” profiles in plasticizing the Stratum Corneum.
