Tert-butyl derivatives of benzylidenecamphor, process for preparing them, their use as antioxidant agents and cosmetic and pharmaceutical compositions containing them

The present invention relates to new tert-butyl derivatives of benzylidenecamphor, to a process for preparing them and to their uses as antioxidant agents as well as in cosmetic compositions for daily use or for protection against sunlight and in pharmaceutical compositions for the preventive treatment of skin allergies and inflammations or certain forms of cancer.
It is well known that the skin is sensitive to solar radiation, which can cause ordinary sunburn or erythema, but also more or less pronounced burns.
However, solar radiation also has other deleterious effects, such as a loss of elasticity of the skin and the appearance of wrinkles leading to premature aging. Sometimes, even dermatoses can also be observed The extreme case is the occurrence of skin cancers in some subjects.
It is also desirable to provide the hair with good protection against photochemical degradation, in order to avoid a change in hue, a bleaching or a degradation of the mechanical properties.
It is known, moreover, that the constituents participating in cosmetic preparations do not always possess sufficient light-fastness, and are degraded through the action of light radiation.
It is well known that the most dangerous portion of solar radiation consists of ultraviolet radiation of wavelengths less than 400 nm. It is also known that, as a result of the existence of the ozone layer of the earth's atmosphere, which absorbs a portion of the solar radiation, the lower limit of ultraviolet radiation reaching the earth's surface lies at about 280 nm.
Accordingly, it appears desirable to have recourse to compounds capable of absorbing ultraviolet radiation over a wide band of wavelengths ranging from 280 to 400 nm, that is to say both the UV-B rays of wavelengths between 280 and 320 nm that play a predominant part in the production of solar erythema and the UV-A rays of wavelengths between 320 and 400 nm that cause tanning of the skin but also its aging and that promote the triggering of the erythemal reaction or that augment that reaction in some subjects or that can even be the source of phototoxic or photoallergic reactions.
In the course of his investigations, the Applicant has just discovered new benzylidenecamphor derivatives having the following formula: ##STR2## in which:
R denotes a hydrogen atom or a tert-butyl residue,
R.sub.1 denotes a C.sub.1 -C.sub.8 linear or branched alkyl residue or a C.sub.1 -C.sub.8 linear or branched alkoxy residue and
R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 denote a hydrogen atom or a hydroxyl radical, with the proviso that at least one of the radicals R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 denotes a hydroxyl radical.
Apart from their good screening properties in the wavelength range extending from 280 to 380 nm, the above compounds simultaneously exhibit, unexpectedly, excellent antioxidant properties with respect to the peroxidation of polyunsaturated lipids, and also with respect to substances capable of undergoing thermo- or photoinduced oxidation reactions (such as proteins, polymers, etc.).
Now, it is known that the peroxidation of lipids involves the formation of intermediate free radicals which damage cell membranes composed, inter alia, of phospholipids, and are responsible, in particular, for phenomena of aging of the skin (A. L. Tappel in "Federation Proceedings" Vol. 32, No. 8, August 1973).
It is extremely advantageous to have recourse to compounds exhibiting both screening properties over a wide band and antioxidant properties boosting the screening effect. Such compounds can make it possible, for example, to combat more satisfactorily the premature aging of the skin due to the peroxidation of cutaneous lipids.
They can also make it possible to provide for better preservation of cosmetic compositions containing a fatty phase, by preventing the rancidification of the unsaturated lipids present therein, and which can be of animal origin, such as lanolin, cetin (spermaceti), beeswax, perhydrosqualene or turtle oil, or vegetable origin such as olive oil, castor oil, maize oil, sweet almond oil, avocado oil, shea oil, sunflower oil, soybean oil, groundnut oil or hydrogenated coconut or palm-kernel oils, and of essential fatty acids such as vitamin F and certain essential oils present in perfumes such as lemon or lavender oil.
The Applicant also discovered, extremely surprisingly, that the compounds of formula (I) above could be used for the preventive treatment of skin allergies and inflammations and also in the prevention of certain cancers.
Apart from their good screening and antioxidant properties, the compounds according to the invention possess an excellent lipid-soluble nature as well as very good thermal and photochemical stability.
These compounds also have the advantage of not being toxic or irritant and of being completely safe with respect to the skin.
They distribute uniformly in traditional cosmetic vehicles capable of forming a continuous film and, in particular, in fatty vehicles, and can thus be applied on the skin to form an effective protective film.
The subject of the present invention is hence the compounds of formula (I) above.
In this formula, R.sub.1 can denote, for example, a methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, tert-butyl or 1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl radical or alternatively a methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy, butoxy, pentyloxy, hexyloxy, heptyloxy or octyloxy residue.
Among preferred compounds of general formula (I), there may be mentioned:
3'-tert-butyl-2'-hydroxy-5'-methoxy-3-benzylidene-dlcamphor,
3'-tert-butyl-2'-hydroxy-5'-methyl-3-benzylidene-dlcamphor,
3',5'-di-tert-butyl-4'-hydroxy-3-benzylidene-d-camphor,
3',5'-di-tert-butyl-4'-hydroxy-3-benzylidene-dlcamphor,
3',5'-di-tert-butyl-2'-hydroxy-3-benzylidene-dlcamphor, and
3'-tert-octyl-2'-hydroxy-5'-methyl-3-benzylidene-dlcamphor.
The compounds of formula (I) are obtained from synthetic camphor (dl-camphor) or from natural camphor (d-camphor) by condensation with an aromatic aldehyde of formula: ##STR3## R, R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 having the meanings stated above.
The aldehydes of formula (III) are prepared according to known methods.
The condensation of the aldehyde (III) with camphor may be performed according to one of the following two processes:
1st Process
The condensation is performed in the presence of an alkali metal alcoholate such as sodium methylate or potassium tert-butylate, in a solvent such as toluene at the reflux temperature of the solvent.
The condensation can also be performed in the presence cf an inorganic base such as an alkali metal amide or hydride, in the presence of a solvent such as dimethoxyethane, at the reflux temperature cf the solvent.
2nd Process
The condensation of the aldehyde (III) with camphor is performed in the presence of a borane of the following formula (IV): ##STR4## in which R.sub.4 denotes a C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl residue and R.sub.5 denotes C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl residue. This compound is obtained according to the procedure described by L. H. Toporcer et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 87, 1236 (1965). Its isolation and purification are not necessary in order to carry out the condensation of the aldehyde (III) with camphor.
The condensation reaction is performed at a temperature of 140.degree.-160.degree. C. without a solvent.
The subject of the present invention is hence also the process for preparing the new compounds of formula (I).
Another subject of the invention is a cosmetic composition comprising an effective amount of at least one benzylidenecamphor derivative of formula (I) above, in a cosmetically acceptable vehicle containing at least one fatty phase.
The cosmetic composition of the invention may be used as a composition for protecting the human epidermis or the hair or as an antisun composition.
