Description

A subject matter of the present invention is para-phenylenediamine compounds substituted by an aliphatic chain comprising a specific cationic heterocyclic group.


The present invention is used in the field of the dyeing of keratin fibers and more particularly the dyeing of keratin fibers, especially human keratin fibers such as the hair.


It is already known from the prior art that para-phenylenediamine bases play an important role in the process of hair dyeing. They are colorless or weakly colored oxidation dye precursors which, in the presence of oxidizing compounds, are transformed into colored compounds.


By combining an oxidation dye precursor with oxidizing compounds and dyeing couplers, a broad palette rich in color is obtained.


“Permanent” dyeing is characterized by the use of dye precursors in the presence of oxidizing compounds. In order to be considered as efficient dyeing, the latter needs to satisfy certain criteria. It must make it possible to obtain shades in the desired intensity with differences in coloring, between the tip and the root of one and the same lock (also known as selectivity), which are as small as possible.


The dyes must also be resistant over time and must not become degraded in the presence of external agents, such as washing, light, bad weather, rubbing and perspiration. Application DE 102010038714 discloses compounds of primary para-phenylenediamine type substituted by a group comprising a quaternary ammonium in order to color keratin fibers. Application EP 2 791 109 also discloses para-phenylenediamine bases. Although these oxidation bases make it possible to obtain a wide range of colors, combinations thereof with conventional couplers sometimes lack homogeneity and chromaticity and the selectivities are often considerable. French patent application FR 3044899 also describes para-phenylenediamines with an alkylene chain comprising an aromatic or non-aromatic heterocycle. However, the dyeing results obtained are not always satisfactory, especially in terms of color buildup, of selectivity, of chromaticity, of intensity and/or of persistence, in particular with respect to successive shampoo washes, or of resistance to light or to perspiration.


There is thus a real need to provide colorings which exhibit better dyeing properties, in particular in terms of chromaticity, of selectivity, of strength and of fastness, and which are also capable of resulting in a wide range of colors.


The present invention addresses these problems. A subject matter of the present invention is new compounds of primary para-phenylenediamine type substituted by aliphatic chains comprising a cationic heterocyclic group of formula (I) as defined below. These compounds make it possible to obtain better dyeing properties, and in particular a better solubility, color buildup, chromaticity, fastness and selectivity. They also afford access to a wide range of light, natural and dark colors.


The invention also relates to the use of one or more para-phenylenediamine compounds substituted by aliphatic chains comprising a cationic heterocyclic group of formula (I) as defined below, in the presence of one or more oxidizing agents, for dyeing keratin fibers, in particular human keratin fibers, such as the hair.


The present invention additionally relates to a composition for dyeing keratin fibers, in particular human keratin fibers, such as the hair, comprising, in a medium appropriate for dyeing, one or more para-phenylenediamine compounds substituted by aliphatic chains comprising a cationic heterocyclic group of formula (I) as defined below.


In particular, the invention relates to the use of said composition for dyeing keratin fibers, in particular human keratin fibers, such as the hair.


The invention also relates to a method for dyeing keratin fibers, in particular human keratin fibers, such as the hair, in which said dyeing composition according to the invention is applied to said fibers in the presence of one or more oxidizing agents for a time sufficient to obtain the desired coloring, after which the resulting fibers are rinsed, optionally washed with a shampoo, rinsed again and dried or left to dry.


Another subject matter of the present invention concerns a dyeing multicompartment device or kit comprising a first compartment containing a dyeing composition as described above and a second compartment containing one or more oxidizing agents. The multicompartment device is thus appropriate for the implementation of the dyeing method according to the invention.

Preparation of the intermediate: synthesis of N,N′-[2-(3-chloropropyl)benzene-1,4-diyl]diacetamide




embedded image


The synthesis of N,N′-[2-(3-hydroxypropyl)benzene-1,4-diyl]diacetamide may be carried out according to two processes starting from 3-(2,5-diaminophenyl)propan-1-ol dihydrochloride.


1st process: 7.45 g of 3-(2,5-diaminophenyl)propan-1-ol dihydrochloride in 45 ml of water are introduced into a 250 ml three-necked flask equipped with a thermometer and a magnetic stirring bar, and then a solution of 6.22 g of sodium sulfite in 20 ml of water is added with stirring. 10 ml of acetic anhydride are then added dropwise to the reaction medium while cooling and then the mixture is left stirring at ambient temperature for 3 h. TLC (AcOEt/MeOH: 90/10) monitoring shows that the reaction is complete. The reaction medium is transferred into a flask containing 50 ml of n-BuOH. After stirring and separation of the two phases, the aqueous phase is extracted twice with n-BuOH. The combined organic phases are washed once with water and then once with saturated sodium chloride solution. After having been dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, the organic phase is concentrated under reduced pressure and a white powder is obtained which is then washed with hot ethyl acetate in order to result in the expected product N,N′-[2-(3-hydroxypropyl)benzene-1,4-diyl]diacetamide in the form of a white powder.


2nd process: 100.62 g of 3-(2,5-diaminophenyl)propan-1-ol dihydrochloride in 500 ml of water are introduced into a 1 liter round-bottomed flask equipped with a dropping


funnel and a magnetic stirring bar, and then 58.0 g of sodium sulfite in 30 ml of water are added with stirring. 84 ml of acetic anhydride are added dropwise over 30 min while cooling and then the mixture is left stirring at ambient temperature for 3 h. TLC (AcOEt/MeOH: 90/10) monitoring shows that the reaction is not complete. A further 57 ml of acetic anhydride are added in three fractions and the mixture is left stirring at ambient temperature for 3 h after each addition. It is checked by TLC monitoring that the reaction is complete. The reaction medium (suspension) is filtered then the filtrate is transferred to a separating funnel and is extracted several times with AcOEt. The combined organic phases are concentrated under reduced pressure and the expected product is obtained in the form of a white powder after having been washed and dried.

The synthesis of the intermediate N,N′-[2-(3-chloropropyl)benzene-1,4-diyl]diacetamide is carried out starting from N,N′-[2-(3-hydroxypropyl)benzene-1,4-diyl]diacetamide.


60 g of N,N′-[2-(3-hydroxypropyl)benzene-1,4-diyl]diacetamide in 1150 ml of anhydrous THF are introduced into a 2 liter three-necked flask equipped with a thermometer, a dropping funnel and a magnetic stirring bar and a milky suspension is obtained. 50 ml of N,N-diisopropylethylamine in 30 ml of anhydrous THF are then added with stirring. 23 ml of methanesulfonyl chloride are added dropwise over 1 hour while cooling, and then the mixture is left stirring at ambient temperature before being refluxed until TLC (AcOEt/MeOH: 80/20) monitoring shows that the reaction is complete. The reaction medium is transferred into a mixture of water and AcOEt. The insoluble matter is filtered and, after washing and drying, a portion of the product is thus isolated in the form of a white powder. The filtrate is evaporated under reduced pressure and the residue is purified by flash chromatography on silica gel (eluent: 5/95˜10/90 MeOH/AcOEt). After removing the solvent, the expected product is also obtained in the form of a white powder.

Since the reaction is incomplete (TLC monitoring), 10 ml of methylimidazole are added to the reaction medium and then the mixture is left stirring for an additional 10 h. The reaction medium is cooled to room temperature. The precipitate formed is filtered and washed with AcOEt, then dried in a desiccator. 1-{3-[2,5-Bis(acetylamino)phenyl]propyl}-3-methyl-1 H-imidazol-3-ium chloride is obtained in the form of a white powder.


27.0 g of 1-{3-[2,5-bis(acetylamino)phenyl]propyl}-3-methyl-1 H-imidazol-3-ium chloride obtained previously in 250 ml of ethanol are introduced into a 1 liter three-necked flask equipped with a thermometer and a magnetic stirring bar, and 150 ml of 37% hydrochloric acid are carefully added. After refluxing for 4 h, the reaction is medium is evaporated under reduced pressure (rotary evaporator). The residue is taken up in isopropanol and again evaporated to dryness with a rotary evaporator. The residue is dissolved in a minimum of methanol and then this solution is poured dropwise into isopropanol. The precipitate obtained is filtered off and then washed with ethanol before being dried in a desiccator. 1-[3-(2,5-Diaminophenyl)propyl]-3-methyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium chloride dihydrochloride is obtained in the form of a beige powder.

After refluxing for 40 h, the reaction medium is filtered and the precipitate is washed with acetonitrile. The precipitate is taken up in acetonitrile and the mixture is stirred at 50° C. for 1 h, and then a hot filtration is carried out, before drying the precipitate in a desiccator. 4-{3-[2,5-Bis(acetylamino)phenyl]propyl}-1,1-dimethylpiperazin-1-ium chloride is obtained in the form of a beige powder. 2.5 g of the product obtained previously in 15 ml of ethanol and, carefully, 15 ml of 37% hydrochloric acid are introduced into a 100 ml three-necked flask equipped with a thermometer and a magnetic stirring bar. After refluxing for 5 h, the reaction medium is evaporated with a rotary evaporator. The residue is taken up in isopropanol and evaporated to dryness with a rotary evaporator. The residue is taken up in ethanol and after 30 min of stirring at 50° C., it is filtered then placed in a desiccator. 4-[3-(2,5-diaminophenyl)propyl]-1,1-dimethylpiperazin-1-ium chloride dihydrochloride is obtained in the form of a beige powder.

The color buildup on hair corresponds to the variation in coloring between the locks of dyed NG hair (natural gray hair containing 90% white hairs) and the non-dyed (i.e. untreated) NG hair, which is measured by (AE) according to the following equation:





ΔE=√{square root over ((L*−Lo*)2+(a*−ao*)2+(b*−bo*)2)}


In this equation, L*, a* and b* represent the values measured after dyeing of the NG hair, and L*, ao* and bo* represent the values measured before dyeing of the NG hair. The higher the ΔE value, the better the buildup of the coloring.

At the time of use, each of the compositions is mixed with a 20-volume (6% by weight) aqueous hydrogen peroxide solution in a 1:1 ratio. The final pH of each of the mixtures is equal to 9.5. Each mixture thus obtained is applied to a lock of gray hair containing 90% white hairs. After a leave-on time of 30 minutes, the locks are rinsed, washed with a standard shampoo and then rinsed again. The locks are then dried.


The shampoo resistance of the color on the hair corresponds to the difference in color buildup before and after shampooing (˜50% DOP shampoo, 6 cycles of 1 shampoo wash +3 rinses, on a transparent Pall plate) or (˜2% DOP shampoo, 6 shampoo washes).


The light fastness of the color on the hair corresponds to the value of the difference in color buildup before and after exposure to light (Xenon-1600W, exposure 2 h 26 min, ˜1 month of normal life).


The compounds of formula (I) (oxidation bases) are numbered as follows:

    • B2 is 1-[3-(2,5-diaminophenyl)propyl]-3-methyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium chloride dihydrochloride (Invention)
