Description

Use of substituted benzazoles as UV absorbers, new benzazoles and processes for their preparation
The invention relates to the use of N-substituted benzazoles as UV absorbers, to new N-substituted benzazoles and to processes for their preparation.
UV absorbers are compounds having a pronounced absorbancy for ultraviolet radiation. They are used in particular as sunscreens in cosmetic and pharmaceutical preparations, but also for enhancing the photostability of industrial products such as paints, varnishes, plastics, textiles, packaging materials and rubbers.
UV rays are classified according to wavelength into UV-A rays (320-400 nm, UV-A-I: 340-400 nm, UV-A-II: 320-340 nm) or UV-B rays (280-320 nm). In very general terms the following is true: The damaging effect of the UV rays on human skin rises with decreasing wavelength and increasing duration of exposure.
UV rays can cause acute and chronic skin damage, the nature of the damage depending on the wavelength of the radiation. For instance, UV-B radiation can cause damage ranging from sunburn (erythema) up to very severe skin bums. Reductions in enzyme activities, disruptions to the DNA structure and alterations of the cell membrane are other known damaging effects of UV-B rays. The UV-A rays penetrate into relatively deep skin layers, where they can accelerate the ageing process of the skin. The shorter-wave UV-A-II radiation additionally intensifies the development of sunburn. Furthermore, the TV-A radiation may elicit phototoxic or photoallergic skin reactions.
Very frequent and unprotected irradiation of the skin with sunlight leads to a loss in skin elasticity and to increased formation of wrinkles. In extreme cases, pathological skin changes are observed, up to and including skin cancer.
In accordance with the position of their absorption maxima UV absorbers are subdivided into UV-A and UV-B absorbers; if a UV absorber absorbs both UV-A and UV-B, it is referred to as a UV-A/B broadband absorber.
There is a range of effective UV-B absorbers, examples being 2-ethylhexyl p-methoxycinnamate, isoamyl p-methoxycinnamate, phenylbenzimidazole sulfonic acid (and its salts) and 3-(4'-methyl-benzylidene)camphor.
The number of suitable UV-A absorbers is much smaller, and they have considerable deficiencies:
For instance, 4-tert-butyl-methoxy-dibenzoylmethane and 4-isopropyl-dibenzoyl-methane (DE-A 2 945 925) are not very photostable. In addition, they are of only limited solubility in cosmetic oils, which may lead to problems in the formulation of cosmetic preparations. Sun protection products containing dibenzoylmethane derivatives, moreover, may on textiles leave marks which are extremely difficult to wash out.
The benzophenones used as UV-A/B broadband absorbers do not have the desired broad UV-A and UV-B absorption or possess only slight absorption within this region. For example, 2-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone (US-A 3 751 563) exhibits only a relatively low absorption in the short wave UV-A-H1 region. In addition, the solubility of the benzophenones in cosmetic oils is limited.
In order to obtain an effective protective effect over the entire ultraviolet range, therefore, it is common to combine different UV filter substances which supplement each other in their absorbency.
Photostable UV-absorbers are sought which have a broad absorption range and which, owing to strong absorption, provide effective protection against the damage due to UV-A and UV-B rays. For use in cosmetic sunscreen compositions, more-over, these UV absorbers should meet the following criteria:
in the case of crystalline UV absorbers, good solubility in cosmetic solvents and liquid, oil-soluble UV absorbers for example ethyl, isoamyl and isooctyl p-methoxycinnamate, ethylhexyl salicylate, homomenthyl salicylate, menthyl anthranilate, ethylhexyl p-aminobenzoate, ethyl and ethylhexyl 3,3-diphenyl-2-cyanoacrylate;
liquid, oil-soluble UV absorbers should be readily miscible with other UV absorbers and cosmetic oil components;
water-resistant UV protection;
trouble-free processability in cosmetic formulations and stability under conditions of use;
compatibility with cosmetic base materials;
pH stability;
thermal stability;
no staining of textiles, or none that cannot be washed out without problems;
colorlessness and odor neutrality.
The invention relates to the use of compounds of the formula ##STR1## in which X is S, NH, NR' or O,

R.sup.4 is H, C.sub.1 -C.sub.16 -alkyl, C.sub.6 -C.sub.12 -aryl or R.sup.5 --O--(CH.sub.2 --CH(R.sup.6)--O--).sub.n --CH.sub.2 --CH(R.sup.6)--,

as UV absorbers.
A further subject of the invention is compounds I in which R.sup.1 is C.sub.5 -C.sub.20 -alkyl, preferably C.sub.5 -C.sub.12 -alkyl, especially 2-ethylhexyl.
Preferred compounds I are those in which R.sup.1 is optionally substituted alkyl, particular preference being given to branched alkyl substituents.
Particularly preferred compounds I are those in which R.sup.1 is C.sub.4 -C.sub.12 -alkyl, cyclohexyl-C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 -alkyl, benzyl or C.sub.1 -C.sub.12 -alkoxycarbonyl-C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 -alkyl.
Other particularly preferred compounds I are those in which X is O, S or NR.sup.1 and R.sup.1 is C.sub.4 -C.sub.12 -alkyl, cyclohexyl-C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 -alkyl, benzyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkoxycarbonyl-C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 -alkyl or C.sub.6 -C.sub.12 -aryl.
The compounds of the formula I can be prepared by analogy with known processes; in this regard compare, for example, Comprehensive Heterocyclic Chemistry Editor K. T. Potts, Pergamon Press, 1984), Vol. 5, 387f; Preston, P. N., Chem. Rev. 74, 279 (1974); Demirayak, S., Acta Pharm. Turc. 1991, 33(2), 35; Ennis, B. C., Holan, G. and L., J. Chem. Soc., C. 1967(1), 33. By way of example, three possible preparation processes are indicated below:
Route A: ##STR2##
Compounds of the formula I can be obtained by alkylating nitrogen-unsubstituted benzimidazolebenzazoles with organyl halides.
The N-unsubstituted benzimidazolebenzazoles used as precursors are obtainable, for example, by reacting. 2-trichloromethylbenzimidazole with o-phenylenediamine, o-aminophenol or o-aminothiophenol. Bisbenzimidazoles can also be prepared advantageously by heating o-phenylenediamine with trichloroacetic acid in dilute hydrochloric acid.
The organylation is conducted under alkaline conditions, where alkali metal and alkaline earth metal hydrides, alcoholates, hydroxides or carbonates can be used as bases, and with preferably from 1.0 to 3.0 mol, in particular from 1.0 to 1.5 mol, of base being used per mole of II. In general from 1.0 to 4.0 mol, preferably from 1.0 to 2.0 mol, of the organyl halide are employed.
The organylation is preferably conducted in organic aprotic solvents, for example dimethylformamide or dimethyl sulfoxide, but can also be performed in alcohols, ethers such as dioxane, ketones such as acetone, aromatic hydrocarbons such as toluene, or liquid ammonia. The reaction temperature can be in the range between 20.degree. and 200.degree. C., in particular between 60.degree. and 140.degree. C.
After the end of the reaction the product can be precipitated by addition of water and can be purified by recrystallization and/or column chromatography.
Route B: ##STR3##
From the respective nitro compounds III, N-substituted o-phenylenediamines IV are obtainable by hydrogenation by means of Pd/C. These diamines IV can be converted with an equimolar amount of trichloroacetimido ester in acetic acid into the corresponding 2-trichloromethylbenzimidazoles V. The reaction takes place at room temperature in from 5 to 20 hours. The products can be precipitated by addition of water.
By reacting 1 mol of 2-trichloromethylbenzimidazole V with from 1.0 to 1.5 mol of o-phenylenediamine, o-aminophenol or o-aminothiophenol VI, compounds of the formula I are obtained. The reaction can be performed at temperatures between 5.degree. and 120.degree. C., preferably from 20.degree. to 80.degree. C., in alcohols as solvents; the reaction time can be from 10 to 30, preferably about 15-20 hours.
In order to bind the hydrochloric acid that is released, the reaction is preferably carried out with addition of from 3 to 4 mol of base, preferably of a tertiary amine, for example triethylamine.
Instead of 2-trichloromethylbenzimidazole it is also possible to use benzimidazole-2-carboxylic acid halides, esters, amides or nitrites or the free acid.
Route C: ##STR4##
The corresponding N-substituted 2-methylbenzimidazoles VII can be prepared under alkaline conditions from 2-methylbenzimidazole VIII and organyl halides, suitable bases which can be used being alkali metal or alkaline earth metal hydrides, alcoholates, hydroxides or carbonates. In a preferred method of preparation the organylation is carried out in a 2-phase system consisting for example of a sodium hydroxide solution and a non-water-miscible organic solvent such as cyclohexane, toluene or xylene. The reaction can be carried out using a phase transfer catalyst, such as for example quaternary ammonium compounds, at temperatures of 20.degree.-90.degree. C. The compounds VII can also be prepared from the N-substituted o-phenylenediamines, as described by M. A. Philips, J. Chem. Soc. 1928, 2393, by heating for 5 to 12 hours with acetic acid or acetic acid derivatives in 4N hydrochloric acid.
The N-substituted 2-methylbenzimidazoles VII can be converted into the compounds of the formula I by heating with equimolar quantities of o-phenylenediamine, o-aminophenol or o-aminothiophenol with the addition of 2.5 to 5 mol, preferably 3 mol, of sulphur. In a preferred variant the reaction is carried out by heating in pyridine for 8 to 30 hours. It can however also be carried out by heating the starting components to 180.degree.-250.degree. C. for 8-15 hours both in the absence of a solvent and using an inert, high-boiling solvent such as for example N-methylpyrrolidone, 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene or diethylene glycol monoethyl ether. After the reaction is complete the solvent is distilled off or the product is precipitated by adding water. The purification of the product can be carried out by column chromatography or by recrystallisation.
Using the same procedure compounds I according to the invention can be prepared from N-substituted o-phenylenediamines IV and 2-methylbenzazoles by heating with sulphur.
The N-substituted benzimidazol-2-yl-benzothiazoles can also be prepared by reacting compounds VII with 1.0 to 1.5 mol of aniline and 2.5 to 5 mol, preferably 3 mol, of sulphur. For this purpose the starting components are heated for 8 to 20 hours to 120.degree. to 250.degree. C., and preferably at about 200.degree. C.
The reaction can be carried out in the absence of a solvent or in the presence of an inert, high-boiling solvent.
A further subject of the invention, therefore, are processes for preparing the corpounds I
a) by reacting compounds II with R.sup.1 halides,
b) by reacting 2-trichloromethylbenzimidazoles V with o-phenylenediamine, o-aminophenol or aminothiophenol, and
c) by reacting 2-methylbenzimidazole with o-phenylenediamine, o-aminophenol or o-aminothiophenol in the presence of sulfur.
Compounds of the formula I are known in principle from EP-A 669 223, however, compounds which are simultaneously substituted on the nitrogen and are free from sulfonic acid groups are not named therein. The compounds known from EP-A 669 323, therefore, are not a subject of the present invention.
DE-A 27 33 439 discloses N-substituted benzimidazoles and their use as optical brighteners. Any indication toward the use of these compounds as UV absorbers is not contained in DE-A 27 33 439.
The compounds I can be used in particular in cosmetic pharmaceutical sunscreen compositions, products for hair care and day care with UV protection, but also as anti-ageing agents for industrial products.
They are notable for strong absorption both in the UV-B- and in the UV-A-I and -II regions. Furthermore, they have excellent photostability and good solubility in cosmetic solvents and in liquid, oil-soluble UV absorbers.
Because of their hydrophobic character, the UV absorbers I are also particularly suitable for the formulation of water-resistant sun protection products.
As IW-A/B broadband absorbers, when used in cosmetic or pharmaceutical preparations the absorbers I prevent the passage of UV rays through the applied film of the preparation. This is in general the case if the preparations contain from 0.5 to 15, preferably from 1 to 10, in particular from 2 to 7, % by weight (based on the overall weight of the preparation) of compound I.
The compounds I are also suitable for photostabilizing UV absorbers of low UV photostability. They are particularly successful in photostabilizing the very photo-unstable dibenzoylmethane compounds, especially 4-tert-butyl-4'-methoxydibenzoylmethane and 4-isopropyldibenzoylmethane.
The preparations comprising compounds I can be used for the protection of the skin and the hair--especially hair already damaged by permanent waving, dyeing and bleaching--against UV irradiation. These cosmetic and pharmaceutical preparations which are used to protect skin and hair against UV radiation can be present in the customarily used application forms, i.e. as an oil-in-water or water-in-oil emulsion, as a milk, as a lotion or cream, aerosol, hydrodispersion gel (emulsifier-free) or as any other customary cosmetic or pharmaceutical preparation. For the protection of the hair against UV rays, it is preferred to use preparations as a shampoo, conditioner, combination (i.e. 2 in 1), rinse, treatment, gel, lotion, spray or cream.
The cosmetic and pharmaceutical preparations can include the constituents customarily used in these compositions, such as emulsifiers, surface-active compounds, lanolin, vaseline, water, triglycerides of fatty acids, polyethylene glycols, fatty alcohols, ethoxylated fatty alcohols, fatty acid esters (for example isopropyl palmitate, isooctyl stearate, diisopropyl adipate, etc.), natural or synthetic oils or waxes, pigments (for example titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, pearl luster pigments, color pigments), thickeners (for example hydroxyethylcellulose, bentonite, etc.), preservatives, humectants, vitamins, silicone oils, glycerol, ethyl alcohol, perfume oils, chelating agents and antioxidants.
The compounds I can be employed individually or in a mixture in the corresponding preparations; they can also be employed in combination with UV absorbers of other classes of substance. Examples of such compounds include
p-aminobenzoic acid p-aminobenzoic acid ethyl ester (25 mol) ethoxylated 2-ethylhexyl p-dimethylaminobenzoate p-aminobenzoic acid ethyl ester (2 mol) N-propoxylated glycerol p-aminobenzoate homomenthyl salicicylate 2-ethylhexyl salicylate triethanolamine salicylate 4-isopropylbenzyl salicylate menthyl anthranilate ethyl diusopropylcinnamate 2-ethylhexyl p-methoxycinnamate methyl diisopropylcinnamate isoamyl p-methoxycinnamate p-methoxycinnamic acid diethanolamine salt isopropyl p-methoxycinnamate 2-ethylhexyl 2-cyano-3,3-diphenylacrylate ethyl 2-cyano-3,3'-diphenylacrylate 2-phenylbenzimidazolesulfonic acid and its salts 3 -(4'-trimethylammonium)-benzylidene-boman-2-one methyl sulfate terephthalylidene-dibornanesulfonic acid and its salts 4-tert-butyl-4'-methoxy-dibenzoylmethane 3-imidazole-4(5)-acrylic acid (urocaninic acid) 2-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone 2-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone-5-sulfonic acid dihydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone 2,4-dihydroxyb enzophenone tetrahydroxybenzophenone 2,2'-dihydroxy-4,4'-dimethoxybenzophenone 2-hydroxy-4-n-octoxybenzophenone 2-hydroxy-4-methoxy-4'-methylbenzophenone 3-(4'-sulfo)benzylidene-bornan-2-one and its salts 3-(4'-methylbenzylidene)-d-1-camphor 4-isopropyldibenzoylmethane 2,4,6-trianilino-(p-carbo-2'-ethylhexyl-1'-oxy)- 1,3,5-triazine phenylene-bis-benzimidazyl-tetrasulfonic acid and its salts N-(2 and 4)-�2-oxoborn-3-ylidene)methyl!benzyl!acrylamide polymer polysiloxane malonates.
Particularly suitable UV absorbers are: 2-ethylhexyl p-methoxycinnamate, isoamyl p-methoxycinnamate, 2-phenylbenzimidazolesulfonic acid, 3-(4'-methylbenzylidene)-d-1-camphor, 2-ethylhexyl 2-cyano-3,3-diphenylacrylate, 2-ethylhexyl salicylate, 4-tert-butyl-4'-methoxydibenzoylmethane, phenylene-bis-benzimidazyl-tetrasulfonic acid and its salts,, menthylanthranilate and 2,4,6-trianilino-(p-carbo-2'-ethylhexyl-1'-oxy)-1,3,5-triazine.
It is likewise possible to combine the compounds I with finely divided pigments (coated or uncoated), for example titanium dioxide, zinc oxide and iron oxide, in sun protection products and day care products with UV protection.
In addition, the compounds I according to the invention can also be combined with UV absorbers which are employed for industrial product protection. Examples of such UV absorbers correspond predominantly to compounds from the series of the benzotriazoles, benzophenones and malonates.
The percentages in the examples below relate in each case to the weight. Unless specified otherwise, the compounds were separated or purified by column chromatography on silica sol 60 (elution with n-hexane/ethyl acetate=(5-10):1).
