Description

In one aspect the invention relates to novel quaternized polycyclic compounds which possess viscosity enhancing and hair conditioning properties, particularly in the presence of anionic surfactants. In another aspect the invention relates to novel quaternized polycyclic compounds having bactericidal properties. Still another aspect of the invention relates to the preparation of said quaternized polycyclic compounds and in still another aspect, the invention relates to the use of said compounds in several fields of application.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The selection of components for hair and skin treating formulations presents numerous difficulties involving compatibility. Several hair treatment and shampoo formulations have been developed which aim to provide conditioning action during cleansing so as to leave the hair soft, manageable and lustrous and thus to eliminate a separate application of creme rinses or conditioning treatments. Problems arise from the limited compatibility of anionic detergents with commercial cationic conditioning agents which precipitate out of solution in shampoo formulations.

Shampoo formulations have employed conventional anionic surfactants such as sodium lauryl sulfate, ammonium lauryl sulfate, ammonium lauryl ether sulfate and sodium lauryl ether sulfates which have been found to be incompatible with most cationic conditioning at effective concentration levels.

Additionally, reproducible thickening formulations containing anionic detergents such as sodium .alpha.-olefin sulfonates is very difficult to achieve.

Still another problem encountered in hair conditioning shampoos is one of a preservative nature. It has been found that shampoos, containing inadequate preservative, on standing develop strands of Pseudomonas aerouginosa which are clearly visible in the liquid and which may cause scalp infection. Consequently, separate preservatives are added to the formulation to prevent development of this bacteria and prevent skin infection. These and many other problems are encountered in the formulation of various shampoos, conditioners and cream rinses. Certain of these difficulties are also encountered in skin lotions, healing salves, mouthwashes, etc.

Accordingly it is an object of this invention to minimize or obviate the above problems while providing additional benefits in hair and skin treating formulations.

Another object of the invention is to provide novel quaternized nitrogen containing compounds having unique properties.

Another object is to provide novel quaternized nitrogen containing compounds having excellent hair conditioning and thickening properties when incorporated into a shampoo and having high compatibility with components of hair and skin treating formulations.

Another object is to provide an economical and commercially feasible method for the preparation of said novel quaternized nitrogen containing compounds.

Still another object is to provide processes for the use of said quaternized compounds.

These and other objects will become apparent from the following description and disclosure.

THE INVENTION

According to this invention there is provided quaternized polycyclic compounds having unique properties and defined by the formula ##STR2## wherein X.sup.- is an anion; m is an integer having a value of from 1 to 4; R is linear alkylene having from 3 to 8 carbon atoms and is optionally substituted with C.sub.1 to C.sub.4 alkyl; R.sub.1 forms a double bond in the heterocyclic ring with the quaternized nitrogen or is alkyl, alkyleneoxyalkyl, alkoxy, alkylhydroxy, aryl, aralkyl, aralkenyl, alkaryl and alkyleneamidoalkyl, said groups containing up to 30 carbon atoms; and R.sub.2 together with the quaternary nitrogen atom forms a 5 to 10 membered monocyclic ring, a 9 to 10 membered bicyclic ring or a 13 to 14 membered tricyclic ring, at least one of said rings containing at least 2 hetero atoms selected from the group of sulfur, nitrogen and oxygen and being saturated or unsaturated as may occur for example in the rings of 1,4-thiazine, 1,4-oxazine, antipyrine, 1,2-oxazocine, oxazolidine, thiazolidine, oxathiazole, morpholine, isothia-diazine, benzodithiazole, benzoxathiazole or an oxide of thiazine. As indicated, a heterocyclic ring of the R.sub.2 can be substituted with oxygen or an alkyl group. The quaternized heterocyclic moieties containing sulfur or oxygen heteroatoms exhibit antibacterial properties in addition to keratin conditioning properties.

Preferred compounds within the above group are those wherein m is 1; R is --CH.sub.2 --CH.sub.2 --CH.sub.2 --; R.sub.1 is a double bond or a group having C.sub.8 to C.sub.22 carbon atoms, most preferably alkyl and X.sup.- is a halide or organic anion such as a tosylate, a sulfate or a sulfonate. The most preferred compounds of this group are those wherein R.sub.2 together with the quaternized nitrogen forms a oxazolidinyl, thiazolidinyl, morpholinyl ring. Examples of the present polycyclic compounds include:

N-hexadecyl-N-[(2-pyrrolidonyl)methyl] 1,2-oxazocinium chloride N-octadecyl-N-[(2-pyrrolidonyl)methyl] 1,4-oxazinium sulfate N-ethyl-N-[(2-piperidonyl)methyl] 1,4-thiazinium methyl sulfonate N-octadecyl-N-[(2-pyrrolidonyl)ethyl] antipyrinium tosylate N-ethyl-N-[(2-piperidonyl)methyl] oxathiazolinium chloride N-dodecyl-N-[(2-pyrrolidonyl)methyl] isothiazinium tosylate N-heptadecyl-N-[(2-pyrrolidonyl)methyl] oxazocinium chloride N-pentadecyl-N-[(2-pyrrolidonyl)methyl] benzoxathiazolinium methyl sulfonate N-tridecyl-N-[(2-pyrrolidonyl)methyl] isothiazinium tosylate N-octadecyl-N-[(2-pyrrolidonyl)methyl] thiazolidinium chloride N-tetradecyl-N-[(2-pyrrolidonyl)methyl] oxazolidinium chloride N-methyl-2-dodecyl-N-[(2-pyrrolidonyl)methyl] thiazinium tosylate N-hexadecyl-N-[(2-pyrrolidonyl)methyl] 1,4-thiazinium tosylate N-octadecyl-N-[(2-pyrrolidonyl)methyl] 1,4-oxazinium ethyl sulfonate N-ethyl-N-[(2-pyrrolidonyl)methyl] morpholinium chloride N-methyl-N-[(2-pyrrolidonyl)methyl] morpholinium tosylate N-octadecyl-N-[(2-pyrrolidonyl)methyl] morpholinium methyl sulfate N-octadecyl-N-[(2-azacycloheptanonyl)methyl] morpholinium ethyl sulfonate N-ethyl-N-[(2-pyrrolidonyl)methyl] morpholinium chloride N-methyl-N-[(2-pyrrolidonyl)methyl] morpholinium tosylate N-ethyl-N-[(2-pyrrolidonyl)methyl] isothiazinium tosylate N-methyl-N-[(2-pyrrolidonyl)methyl] benzthiazolinium methyl sulfate N-ethyl-N-[(2-pyrrolidonyl)methyl] benzoxathiazolinium tosylate N-octadecyl-N-[(2-pyrrolidonyl)methyl] 1,2-oxazinium methyl sulfonate N-dodecyl-N-[(2-pyrrolidonyl)methyl] 1,2-oxazocinium ethyl sulfonate N-hexyl-N-[(2-pyrrolidonyl)methyl] oxathiazolinium ethyl sulfate N-ethyl-N-[3(2-pyrrolidonyl)propyl] morpholinium ethyl sulfate N-methyl-N-[2(2-pyrrolidonyl)ethyl] morpholinium methyl sulfate N-octadecyl-N-[(2-pyrrolidonyl)methyl] benzoxathiazolinium chloride N-hexyl-N-[(2-pyrrolidonyl)methyl] oxathiazolinium tosylate

It will be understood that the bromide and iodide salts of the above chlorides, sulfates, sulfonates or tosylates are also within the scope of this invention.

More specifically, the products of this group can be described by the formula: ##STR3## wherein z has a value of zero when the quaternized nitrogen atom is bonded in the heterocyclic ring by a double bond and a value of one when the quaternized nitrogen atom is bonded in the heterocyclic ring by two single bonds. All of the remaining definitions of R, R.sub.2, R.sub.1 and m being the same as set forth above.

The present quaternary compounds possess unique properties, among which is their ability to build viscosity, e.g. for liquids having a viscosity less than 50 centipoises, while simultaneously providing a hair and skin conditioning capability in cosmetic formulations which may or may not contain anionic surfactants. They are also useful in textile treating formulations to provide a softer, silky texture. For the purposes of this invention, the term "conditioning" is intended to include the functions of moisturizing, softening, cleansing, penetrating, luster enhancing, hair combability, dye leveling, dye retention and others. These compounds are highly compatible with .alpha.-olefin sulfonates and anionic surfactant salts conventionally employed in shampoos, skin lotions and like formulations. Their compatibility is such that up to 5% by weight or more of the quaternized compounds can be incorporated in a composition, a characteristic which permits the formation of effective formulations as liquids or gels. In contrast, most prior quaternary viscosity building conditioning compounds are incorporatable only up to 0.5 or 1 wt. percent based on total anionic content. The sulfur-containing compounds are outstanding for their biocidal properties and can be used in a mouthwash or as a highly compatable preservative in shampoo, hair conditioners, hand or body lotions and medicinal formulations. It is contemplated that mixtures of the oxygen or sulfur hetero pyrrolidonyl compounds can be employed in shampoos, hair conditioners and lotions as an agent which incorporates thickening, conditioning and preservative qualities in one additive; thus eliminating the need for separate chemical components to accomplish these individual needs. These mixtures and particularly the sulfur-containing quaternized products, may also be used to control dandruff or bacterial infections of the scalp and body skin. Generally, the quaternary compounds of this invention are mixed with a standard formulation of shampoo, cream rinse, hand or body lotion or creams, mouthwash, etc., in an effective amount which ranges from between about 0.05 to about 8% by weight, preferably between about 0.5 and about 5% by weight, of the total formulation. The compatability of the present compounds with anionic .alpha.-olefin sulfonates is surprising since most anionic compounds cause precipitation of cationic agents. However, the present compounds in concentrations up to 5% by weight show no tendency to precipitate after extended periods including periods up to 6 months or more.

The quaternary pyrrolidonyl compounds of this invention are prepared by an economically feasible process which involves the reaction between the corresponding heterocyclic amine and a N-haloalkyl lactam having a 5 to 10 membered ring. A general equation for the preparation of the present compounds is shown in the equation: ##STR4## wherein m, R, R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and X.sup.- are as defined above and X an organic or halide anion.

Examples of suitable lactam reactants include the N-chloromethyl, N-bromomethyl and N-iodomethyl derivatives of 2-pyrrolidone, 4-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, 4-butyl-2-pyrrolidone, 2-piperidone, methyl-2-piperidone, 2-azacycloheptanone, 2-azacyclooctanone, 2-azacyclononanone, 2-azacyclodecanone and C.sub.1 to C.sub.4 alkyl derivatives substituted on an alkylene group in the heterocyclic ring of these lactams. Mixtures of these lactam reactants can also be employed to provide a correspondingly mixed quaternary product, if desired. Of these lactam reactants the N-halomethyl-2-pyrrolidones and N-halomethyl caprolactams are preferred and the N-chloromethyl lactams are most preferred.

Suitable nitrogen heterocyclic amino coreactants include any of the compounds defined by the aforementioned ##STR5## heterocyclic group. Preferred of this group are pyridine, oxazolidine and N-alkyl substituted pyrrolidines, piperidines, morpholines and imidazoles wherein most preferably the alkyl bonded to the heterocyclic nitrogen contains from 8 to 20 carbon atoms. Also, the most preferred heterocyclic amine coreactants of this invention are those wherein R.sub.2 is a hydrocarbon group having a total of 4 or 5 carbon atoms.

The process is effected by reacting the haloalkyl lactam and the nitrogen heterocyclic amine coreactant at a temperature between about 25.degree. and about 120.degree. C., preferably between about 30.degree. and about 60.degree. C., under a pressure of from about 0 to about 50 psig, preferably atmospheric pressure, for a period up to about 10 hours, usually not more than 2 hours is required to complete the reaction. From the above equation, it is seen that stoichiometric amounts of haloalkyl lactam and amine are used in the reaction. However, an excess of one or the other of the components is practicible in the process. Generally, for economic considerations, and where the coreactant contains a single quaternizable site, a mole ratio of between 1:1.5 and about 1.5:1 is employed; although, a slight excess of the tertiary amino coreactant to insure complete reaction of the lactam is recommended. Accordingly, the most preferred mole ratio of lactam to amine is about 1:1.01-1:1.03.

It is to be understood, however, that in instances where more than one quaternizable site is present in the coreactant, the molar amount of the haloalkyl lactam can be increased accordingly.

The halide salt products obtained by the above process can be reacted with an ion exchange resin, such as a tosylate, a sulfate or a sulfonate, to provide the corresponding quaternized salt product if desired. Alternatively, the tosylate, sulfate or sulfonate quaternized salt can be produced directly by reacting the corresponding lactam salt with the tertiary amine under the aforedescribed conditions.

It is recommended that the haloalkyl lactam be added gradually or dropwise to the amine at the beginning of the ensuing exothermic reaction. At the completion of the reaction, a solid product is formed and recovered. Since the reaction is quantitative, the product can be used as is or, when a slight excess of the amine is employed, it can be neutralized with a weak acid such as acetic, lactic or citric acid.

For incorporating into a standard formulation of shampoo, cream rinse, hand or body lotion, etc., the present product is dissolved in an inert solvent such as water, propylene glycol, ethanol, etc., and the solution in the desired amount is mixed into the formulation to provide a homogeneous liquid, gel, cream or lotion. Incorporation of the present product is usually affected at room temperature under atmospheric pressure and requires no special formulating technique. However, for certain formulations incorporation of the present product can be effected at temperatures up to about 85.degree. C. Amphoteric- containing shampoo formulations are best prepared by initially preparing an aqueous solution of the quaternized product and the amphoteric surfactant and then adding the solution to the shampoo formulation.

Having generally described the invention, reference is now had to the accompanying examples which set forth preferred embodiments, but which are not to be construed as limiting to the scope of the invention as more broadly set forth above and in the appended claims.
