Liposomogenic UV absorbers

The present invention relates to the use of liposomogenic UV absorbers for protecting human hair from the damaging effect of UV radiation.
If human hair is exposed to sunlight for a relatively long period of time, various types of damage may occur. Dark hair acquires a reddish colour shade after some time, and blond hair becomes yellowish. The surface of the hair becomes rougher and at the same time drier. It also loses its shine in the course of time.
Hair can be protected effectively from harmful solar rays by using UV absorbers. Unfortunately, the UV absorbers used to date have an inadequate affinity for human hair, i.e. they can easily be washed out and therefore have only a short-term action.
Surprisingly, it has now been found that compounds which contain a UV chromophore having an absorption in the range from 285 to 400 nm and specific chemical structural elements which render these compounds capable of self-organization in bimolecular layers have a very good substantivity with respect to human hair and at the same time form an effective UV protection for the hair.
The present invention therefore relates to the use of liposomogenic UV absorbers which comprise a hydrophilic head group (=Z), a spacer (=W), a UV chromophore (Q) having an absorption in the range from 285 to 400 nm and at least one hydrophobic tail group (=A) for protecting human hair from the damaging effect of UV radiation.
The liposomogenic UV absorbers are those of the formula ##STR2## in which A.sub.1 and A.sub.2 independently of one another are a hydrophobic radical;
Q is a UV chromophore;
W is an organic radical;
Z.sub.1 and Z.sub.2 independently of one another are a hydrophilic radical; n.sub.1 and n.sub.2 independently of one another are a number from 0 to 4, where n.sub.1 =n.sub.2 =0 is not included;
p is 1 or 2;
q is a number from 0 to 3;
r.sub.1 is 1 or 2;
r.sub.2 is 0 or1;and
s.sub.1 is a number from 1 to 3.
These compounds are synthetic amphiphilic compounds which are capable of organizing themselves, i.e. they spontaneously form a two-dimensional bilayer in water.
The hydrophobic radicals A.sub.1 and A.sub.2 are an alkyl, alkoxy, acyl or alkylamino radical in which the chains have at least 8 carbon atoms. Alkoxy radicals A.sub.1 and A.sub.2 are advantageously the radical of an unsaturated or, preferably, saturated aliphatic monoalcohol having 8 to 22 carbon atoms. The hydrocarbon radical can be branched or, preferably, straight-chain. A.sub.1 and A.sub.2 are preferably an alkyl or alkenyl radical having 10 to 14 carbon atoms.
Aliphatic saturated monoalcohols are naturally occurring alcohols, for example lauryl alcohol, myristyl alcohol, cetyl alcohol or stearyl alcohol, and synthetic alcohols, for example decyl alcohol, C.sub.10 -C.sub.13 oxo alcohol, tridecyl alcohol, isotridecyl alcohol or linear primary alcohols (Alfols) having 10 to 22 carbon atoms. Some representatives of these Alfols are Alfol (10-14), Alfol (12-13) or Alfol (16-18). ("Alfol" is a registered trade mark).
Unsaturated aliphatic monoalcohols are, for example, dodecenyl alcohol, hexadecenyl alcohol or oleyl alcohol.
The alcohol radicals can be present individually or in the form of mixtures, for example mixtures of alkyl and/or alkenyl groups which are derived from soya fatty acids, palm kernel fatty acids or tallow oils, of two or more components, preferably individually.
Alkylamino radicals A.sub.1 and A.sub.2 are derived from primary or, preferably, secondary C.sub.12 -C.sub.22 fatty amines. These amines can be obtained from the corresponding fatty acids by dehydration and subsequent dehydrogenation. An alkylamino radical A.sub.1 and A.sub.2 is preferably a di-C.sub.12 -C.sub.18 alkylamino radical.
The acyl radical is preferably C.sub.8 -C.sub.22 alkylcarbonyl; for example octyl-, decyl-, dodecyl-, tridecyl-, hexadecyl- or octadecylcarbonyl.
Preferred liposomogenic UV absorbers are compounds of the formula (1) in which n.sub.1 and n.sub.2 are 1 or 2, preferably 2, and the radicals A.sub.1 and A.sub.2 have the same meaning.

For the preparation of the liposomogenic UV absorbers according to the invention, the UV chromophores (Q.sub.1)-(Q.sub.6) in question are employed as aqueous dispersions, provided that they are compounds which are sparingly soluble in water.
Various compounds are suitable dispersing agents here, for example acid esters or their salts of alkylene oxide adducts, polystyrenesulfonates, fatty acid taurides, alkylated diphenyl oxide mono- or disulfonates, sulfonates of polycarboxylic acid esters, or the addition products, converted into an acid ester with an organic dicarboxylic acid or an inorganic polybasic acid, of 1 to 60, preferably 2 to 30 mol of ethylene oxide and/or propylene oxide on fatty amines, fatty amides, fatty acids or fatty alcohols having in each case 8 to 22 carbon atoms or on tri- to hexahydric alkanols having 3 to 6 carbon atoms, ligninsulfonates and formaldehyde condensation products. Details on the dispersing agents and the preparation of the UV absorber dispersions are to be found, for example, in EP-A-0 523 006.
The following chromophores Q are preferably employed according to the invention: ##STR18## in these formulae, R.sub.2, R.sub.14, R.sub.16, R.sub.17 and B are as defined in the formulae (2), (6) and (7).
The organic radical W is as a rule an alkylene radical which is at least divalent and can be uninterrupted or interrupted by a carbonyl, carbonylato or ether group. W is, in particular, a branched or, preferably, straight-chain alkylene group having 1 to 8, preferably 2 to 5 carbon atoms.

Hydrophilic radicals Z, and Z.sub.2 are, preferably,
(Z.sub.a) ammonium or amine compounds;
(Z.sub.b) phosphate compounds;
(Z.sub.c) carboxylate compounds;
(Z.sub.d) polyols; and
(Z.sub.e) sulfate compounds.
They form the hydrophilic head groups of the liposomogenic UV absorbers according to the invention. In these structural elements, a distinction may be made between cationic (Z.sub.a), anionic ((Z.sub.b), (7,), (Z.sub.e)) and neutral head groups ((Z.sub.a) and (Z.sub.d)).
Cationic ammonium compounds (Z.sub.a) are, in particular, mono- or di-C.sub.1 -C.sub.5 -alkylammonium compounds, which can be modified by further substituents. Examples which may be mentioned are the following groups: ##STR20##
Neutral amine compounds are, for example, the groups ##STR21##
Phosphate groups Z.sub.b are, in particular, compounds which are derived from mono- and diesters of phosphoric acid. The phosphorus compounds are usually used here in the form of their sodium salts.
The carboxylate compounds (Z.sub.c) are derived from lower mono- or dicarboxylic acids and are likewise usually used as sodium salts.
Polyols (Z.sub.e) are, for example, the following compounds: ##STR22##
The sulfate compounds (Z.sub.e) are derived from alkyl sulfates, which can be unsubstituted or else further substituted. Sulfate groups are, primarily, the sulfate ion, SO.sub.4.sup.2 --.
The head groups (Z.sub.a)--(Z.sub.e) can simultaneously form the unit --W--Z.sub.1 or --W--Z.sub.2 --with the organic radical W, depending on which starting compounds are used.
The liposomogenic UV absorbers employed according to the invention can be prepared by methods which are known per se. As a rule, they are prepared by a planned sequence of reaction steps which are known per se, such as condensation, alkyation, esterification, hydrolysis and the like. Information on carrying out the reactions can be found from monographs for organic synthesis, for example J. March, Advanced Organic Chemistry, 2nd Edition, McGraw-Hill, New York, 1977.
The hydrophobic radicals A can be introduced in very different ways, for example by etherification of the phenolic OH group of the UV chromophore (cf. Examples 1, 2, 5 and 7), or by reaction of an acid chloride with a long-chain dialkylamine (cf. Example 4). A large number of reactions are also suitable for introduction of the hydrophilic head groups Z, as can be seen from Examples 1 and 2 (quaternization). With a suitable reaction procedure, however, A and Z can also be introduced simultaneously, i.e. in one reaction step. This is achieved, for example, by opening a suitable acid anhydride with a fatty alcohol (Example 6).
Especially preferred liposomogenic compounds are those of the formula

The liposomogenic UV absorbers employed according to the invention are distinguished by the fact that they have
a high substantivity for human hair
and guarantee a high UV protection for hair.
The invention also relates to a hair cosmetics preparation comprising at least 0.25 to 5% by weight, based on the total weight of the composition, of a liposomogenic UV absorber of the formula (1) and at least one auxiliary which is tolerated by the skin and hair.
The hair cosmetics composition can be prepared by physical mixing of the liposomogenic UV absorber or absorbers with the auxiliary or auxiliaries by the usual methods, for example by simple stirring together of the individual components.
For use in hair cosmetics, the UV absorbers according to the invention usually have an average particle size in the range from 0.02 to 2, preferably 0.05 to 1.5, and especially from 0.1 to 1.0 .mu.m, provided that they are not water-soluble. The insoluble UV absorbers according to the invention can be brought to the desired particle size by customary methods, for example grinding with, for example, a jet, ball, vibratory or hammer mill. Grinding is preferably 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, for example an alkylated vinylpyrrolidone polymer, a vinylpyrrolidonelvinyl acetate copolymer, an acylglutamate or, in particular, a phospholipid.
Any emulsifier which can be employed conventionally can be used for the preparation of the hair cosmetics formulations according to the invention, for example one or more ethoxylated esters of naturally occurring derivatives, for example polyethoxylated esters of hydrogenated castor oil; or a silicone oil emulsifier, for example silicone polyol; a nonethoxylated or ethoxylated fatty acid soap; an ethoxylated fatty alcohol; a nonethoxylated or ethoxylated sorbitan ester; an ethoxylated fatty acid or an ethoxylated glyceride.
The hair cosmetics preparation here can be
in the form of a shampoo, a lotion, a gel or an emulsion for rinsing, before or after shampooing, before or after dyeing or bleaching, or before or after a permanent wave or a straightening operation,
in the form of a lotion, a foam or a gel for styling or treatment,
in the form of a lotion or a gel for brushing or for waving,
in the form of a hair lacquer,
in the form of a composition for a permanent wave or for straightening, or for dyeing or for bleaching the hair.
The following hair cosmetics formulations, for example, can be used:
a.sub.1) spontaneously emulsifying stock formulation comprising the UV absorber, PEG 6-C.sub.10 oxo alcohol and sorbitan sesquioleate, to which water and any desired quaternary ammonium compound, for example 4% of minkamidopropyldimethyl-2-hydroxyethylammonium chloride or Quaternium 80 are added;
a.sub.2) spontaneously emulsifying stock formulation comprising the UV absorber, tributyl citrate and PEG 20-sorbitan monooleate, to which water and any desired quaternary ammonium compound, for example 4% of minkamidopropyldimethyl-2-hydroxyethylammonium chloride or Quaternium 80, are added;
b) quat-doped solutions of the UV absorber in butyltriglycol and tributyl citrate;
c) dispersions of micronized UV absorbers obtained by known methods (precipitation from solutions or solution mixtures, grinding) and having an average diameter of 0.05-1.0 mm in APG (for example Plantaren) and a quat compound (for example minkamidopropyl-2-hydroxyethylammonium chloride) in an aqueous formulation;
d) mixtures or solutions of the UV absorber with N-alkylpyrrolidone.
In addition to the liposomogenic UV absorbers according to the invention, the hair cosmetics preparation can also additionally comprise one or more other UV protection substances, for example oxanilides or vinyl group-containing amides or cinnamic acid amides. Such protection substances are described, for example, in GB-A-2 286 774 or are known from Cosmetics & Toiletries (107), 50 et seq. (1992).
The compositions according to the invention can furthermore also comprise other beneficial auxiliaries, for example surface-active agents, thickeners, polymers, preservatives, fragrances, foam stabilizers, electrolytes, organic solvents, oils, waxes, degreasing agents, dyes and/or pigments, which serve to impart to the hair cosmetics composition the same shading as the hair to be treated, and other auxiliaries customary in hair cosmetics.
The present invention also relates to a process for the treatment of human hair for protection from the damaging effect of UV radiation. The process comprises treating the hair with a shampoo, a lotion, a gel or an emulsion for rinsing, before or after shampooing, before or after dyeing or bleaching or before or after a permanent wave or a straightening operation, with a lotion, a foam or a gel for styling, with a lotion, a foam or a gel for brushing or for waving, with a hair lacquer or with a composition for a permanent wave or for straightening, or for dyeing or bleaching the hair, the shampoo, the lotion, the gel, the emulsion, the hair lacquer or the composition for a permanent wave comprising a liposomogenic UV absorber of the formula (1).

Use examples:
EXAMPLE 11
a. Preparation of liposomes
1-5 g of the compound of the formula (101a) (for the preparation, cf. Example 1) are dissolved in 100 ml of N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP). This solution is then added dropwise to 900 ml of 0.9% aqueous NaCl solution or is injected with a syringe, liposomes forming. The volume of the resulting liposome suspension is concentrated to 50-100 ml with the aid of a diafiltration apparatus (Ultrasette, Skan AG, Basle), so that the liposomes are correspondingly concentrated to 1-10%. The solvent is then exchanged, likewise with the aid of the diafiltration apparatus, by filtering further and at the same time replacing the volume of the filtrate removed by pure 0.9% NaCl solution. At least five times the volume of pure 0.9% NaCl solution, based on the concentrated liposome suspension, is used for the solvent exchange. At an initial NMP content of 10%, not more than 0.07% of NMP then still remain in the suspension. The residual content of NMP can be reduced as desired by increasing the volume of the 0.9% NaCl solution used for the exchange.
Alternatively, liposomes are prepared by initially again dissolving 1-5 g of the compound of the formula (101a) in 100 ml of solvent (NMP, ethanol or diethyl ether). The solution is then introduced into a round-bottomed flask and heated and the solvent is stripped off in vacuo using a rotary evaporator. 50-100 ml of 0.9% NaCl solution are now added to the resulting film on the inside wall of the flask, and the flask is then shaken. The liposomes formed as a result are then treated with ultrasound with the aid of an ultrasonic rod (Branson Model 250 Sonifier, Skan AG, Basle) for 10-60 minutes, which leads to a reduction in the size of the liposomes.
b. Determination of the diameter of the liposomes
The diameter of the liposomes is determined with the aid of photon correlation spectroscopy (ALV/monomode fibre compact goniometer system, ALV-Laser GmbH, Langen). For this, the liposome suspension is diluted to 0.02% to 0.1% and the autocorrelation function of the scattered light fluctuations is measured at four angles of scatter (30.degree., 60.degree., 90.degree. and 120.degree.). Average diffusion coefficients are obtained therefrom with the aid of CONTIN software, and in the case of a dependence on the angle, are extrapolated to the angle of scatter of 0.degree.. The diameter of the liposomes is obtained from the resulting diffusion coefficients using the Stokes-Einstein relationship. For the liposomes of the compound of the formula (101a) prepared by the injection method, the following result is found:
d=(220.+-.40) nm.
This is regarded as evidence that liposomes are present. With the second method for liposome preparation, described under a., the diameter can be adjusted to between 1000 and 200 nm by varying the ultrasonic treatment time (10 to 60 minutes).
c. Spectral properties:
The maximum extinction of the compound of the formula (101a) is at a wavelength of 310 nm. At this wavelength, the extinction of a 1% solution at an optical layer thickness of 1 cm is:
E(1%, 1 cm)=612.
The half-intensity width of the absorption band is 58 nm.
d. Determination of the light protection factors:
Light protection factors (LPF) are determined by the method of Diffey and Robson (J. Soc. Cosmet. Chem. 40 (1989) 127). 2 .mu.l of the formulation per cm.sup.2 are thus applied to Transpore.RTM. tape (3M). The diffuse transmission (measurment using an integration sphere) is then measured in the spectral range between 290 and 400 nm against uncoated Transpore.RTM. tape and, for calculation of the sun protection factor, weighted with the sensitivity spectrum of the skin and the intensity spectrum of the sun. Nine measurements are carried out in each case, the highest and the lowest value of the resulting sun protection factors not being taken into account, so that the average is finally taken with seven measurement values. For a 5% liposome suspension of the compound of the formula (101a), the result is thus:
LPF=8.6.+-.1.7.

Determination of the affinity of UV absorbers for hair by determination of the degree of extraction from formulations or solutions
10 ml of a 10 mmolar UV absorber solution and 1 g of strands of hair are shaken in a defined and reproducible manner in a glass vessel. The decrease in the concentration of the UV absorber in the test formulation or solution is determined after 30 and 60 minutes by means of a spectrophotometer (see Table 6). The degree of extraction determined in this way is a measure of the substantivity of the UV absorber or of the formulation which comprises it.
