Description
The present invention relates to p-monobromomethyl- and p-dibromomethyl-benzylidene-camphors, as well as to the process for their preparation and to their use in the field of cosmetics. The invention also relates to derivatives prepared from the abovementioned bromine-containing compounds, and to their use in the field of cosmetics.
The compounds of this invention have remarkable properties regarding absorption of actinic radiation of certain wavelengths and a very wide solubility range, and they can be used, in particular, in the preparation of cosmetic compositions intended for protecting the human epidermis.
It is known that light radiations of between 280 and 400 nanometers (nm) make it possible to tan the human epidermis, but that the zone between 280 and 320 nm causes erythema and skin burns, the seriousness of which increases rapidly with the exposure time. Thus, a good protective agent must have a high absorbing power in the zone from about 280 to 320 nm, but it must allow the radiation in the zone above 320 nm to pass through as much as possible, in order to offer the best conditions for bronzing without erythema. In addition, it must possess good photochemical, heat and chemical stability properties, especially in contact with perspiration, and good solubility in the various solvents and ingredients forming the vehicle of the cosmetic composition.
French Pat. No. 73/34,140 describes benzylidene-camphor derivatives carrying a quaternary ammonium radical on the benzene nucleus in the para-position relative to the bornylidene radical. French Pat. No. 74/05,427 describes benzylidene-camphor derivatives which are sulphonated on the methyl radical in the .alpha.-position to the carbonyl radical or on the benzene nucleus.
Although these compounds have good anti-actinic properties and can be used in cosmetic compositions for tanning the human epidermis, they are rather restricted in number. As a result, they do not give complete satisfaction, especially as regards the preparation of a wide range of formulations, in which they are not always compatible, especially for reasons of solubility or of compatibility with the solvents and ingredients which are usually employed in cosmetics.
This invention aims, in particular, to overcome the abovementioned disadvantages and to enable a vast family of compounds which, whilst each compound possesses good sunlight-filter properties, exhibits, with the various solvents and ingredients used in cosmetic compositions for bronzing the human epidermis, very selective protection as well as a wide range of solubilities and good compatibility, in particular when the composition comprises several phases.
The present invention provides the bromine-containing derivatives of para-methylbenzylidene-camphor which have the formula: ##STR2## in which Y denotes H or the radical SO.sub.3 H and its salts with organic or inorganic bases, and Z denotes the radical --CH.sub.2 Br or --CHBrBr.
Amongst the compounds of the formula I, there may be mentioned the compounds of Table 1 below, in which table the number of each compound is the same as that of its preparation example.
The compounds of the formula I can be used either as synthesis intermediates for preparing the compounds of the formula II below, or as protective filters in cosmetic composition for protecting the human epidermis against actinic radiation.
The present invention thus also provides the compounds of the general formula II: ##STR3## in which Y denotes H or SO.sub.3 H and the corresponding salts with organic or inorganic bases, and Z' denotes the groups --CH.sub.2 I, --CH.sub.2 R, --CHR'R', --CHO or --COOR", where R=--NR.sub.1 R.sub.2, --N.sup.+ R.sub.1 R.sub.2 R.sub.3, --OR.sub.4, --OCOR.sub.5, --SR.sub.6, --CN, --COOR" or --SSO.sub.3 Na, in which R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 =H, C.sub.1-18 alkyl or hydroxyalkyl, or they form, together with the nitrogen atom, a heterocyclic ring such as morpholine, piperidine, pyrrolidine, piperazine, N-methylpiperazine or N-phenylpiperazine, R.sub.3 =C.sub.1-4 lower alkyl, hydroxyalkyl or sulphonatopropyl, R.sub.4 =H, alkyl, polyoxyethylene, aryl which may or may not be substituted, menthyl or dialkylaminoalkyl, R.sub.5 =alkyl, alkenyl, aryl, or a heterocyclic ring which may or may not be aromatic and contains 5 to 6 chain members, and R.sub.6 =H, alkyl, carboxyalkyl, aminoalkyl, hydroxyalkyl, aryl or 3-alanyl, R'=--OR'.sub.4 or --SR'.sub.6, in which R'.sub.4 and R'.sub.6 can have respectively the same meanings as R.sub.4 and R.sub.6, except for the meanings hydrogen, polyoxyethylene, hydroxyalkyl, 3-alanyl and aryl, and R"=hydrogen or alkyl, it being understood that, when R=NR.sub.1 R.sub.2, the compound can be in the form of an addition salt with an inorganic or organic acid, and that when R=N.sup.+ R.sub.1 R.sub.2 R.sub.3, where R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are different from H, the molecule is ionically balanced either by R.sub.3, when the latter has the meaning sulphonatopropyl, or by an anion X.sup.-, it being possible for X to have the meanings SO.sub.4 alkyl, SO.sub.3 aryl, SO.sub.3 alkyl or halogen.
The compounds of formula II can be used especially as protective filters in cosmetic compositions for protecting the human epidermis against actinic radiation.
Amongst the compounds of the invention, there may be mentioned, in particular, the compounds of Table 2 below, in which table the number of each compound is the same as that of its preparation example.
The compounds of Table 2 can also exist in the form of addition salts with an inorganic or organic acid.
The compounds of formulae I and II exhibit an absorption maximum in the zone from 290 to 305 nm of the ultra-violet spectrum. They have the property of absorbing the major part of the so-called erythematogenic solar radiations, which are between 285 and 320 nm, and particularly of absorbing the most harmful radiations. For the absorption maximum, their molar absorption coefficient (a.sub.m), calculated in acordance with French Standard Specification No. T 01-030, is very high, since it is greater than or equal to 25,000 on average, which corresponds to an exceptional absorbing power.
Whereas the coefficient (a.sub.m) of known compounds has a maximum of the order of 24,500, the coefficient (a.sub.m) of the compounds of the invention can reach 45,000, as indicated in Table 3 below:
In this table, A is benzylidene-camphor, and 4-(2-oxo-3-bornylidenemethyl)-phenyl-trimethylammonium methyl-sulphate B, which respectively have the formulae: ##STR4##
The excellent properties of absorption of the erythematogenic radiations, that is to say the radiations at between 285 and 320 nm, are shown for the compounds of the invention in Table 4 below, which indicates the percentage of transmitted radiations as a function of their wavelength. These values were determined by placing a 10 mm thickness of a solution, in 100 ml of ethanol, containing 2 mg of the compound to be examined, in the path of the incident radiation, and by calculating the ratio, expressed as a percentage, of the transmitted flux to the incident flux for various wavelengths of between 260 and 360 nm.
In general terms, it is found that the protection provided by the compounds of the invention covers the range of so-called erythematogenic wavelengths more selectively than do compounds A and B, and that their absorbing power is greater than that of these compouns A and B.
The very large range of solubilities, offered by the compounds of the invention, in the usual cosmetic vehicles is shown by Table 5 below, in which the solubility of certain compounds is indicated in grams per 100 ml of solvent.
Thus, certain compounds have a solubility greater than 100% in water, ethanol or paraffin oil, whereas others are insoluble in the abovementioned solvents and, lastly, others are only soluble in one of the abovementioned solvents and insoluble in the other two.
The invention also provides a process for the preparation of the mono- and di-brominated compounds of the formula I. We have discovered that it is possible to obtain the abovementioned compounds by selectively brominating the compounds of the formula I': ##STR5## in which Y has the abovementioned meanings, in excellent yield with brominating the methyl radical situated in the .alpha.-position to the carbonyl radical of the camphor, or the double bond of the benzylidene, or the aromatic nucleus.
The bromination is suitably carried out either with bromine, or with N-bromosuccinimide, in an inert solvent, in the cold or with heating, and with exposure to radiation in the wavelength range from 200 to 800 nm, optionally in the presence of a neutralising agent.
When carried out in the cold, that is to say at ambient temperature, the reaction generally takes 3 to 4 hours, and when carried out under the action of heat, preferably under reflux, the reaction generally takes 30 to 60 minutes. Preferably chlorohydrocarbons such as carbon tetrachloride, or ether, acetic acid, benzene or carbon disulphide, are used as the inert solvents, and an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal carbonate is used as the neutralising agent.
In order to obtain the monobrominated compound of the formula I, in which Z denotes --CH.sub.2 Br, a rigorously stoichiometric amount of the reactants is used and the yield is virtually quantitative. At the end of the reaction, the inorganic salts which may have been formed can be filtered off, the solvents driven off, the residual mixture concentrated and a crude product obtained on cooling, which can be recrystallised, from a solvent such as isopropanol, with a yield of 85 to 90%. The mono- and di-brominated compounds of the formula I which are thus obtained can be stored easily without deterioration, without any special precautions being taken.
When the bromination is carried out with bromine, a solution of the latter in an inert solvent is introduced gradually, and whilst stirring, into a solution of the compound of the formula I in the same inert solvent. When the bromination is carried out with N-bromosuccinimide, all the reactants can be introduced into the inert solvent at the start of the operation, and the reaction is carried out whilst stirring, and preferably under the action of heat.
It is possible to first obtain the mono-brominated compound of the formula I, in which Z=CH.sub.2 Br, and to subsequently prepare the di-brominated compound of the formula I, in which Z=CHBrBr from the mono-brominated compound, using either bromine or N-bromosuccinimide.
When it is desired to obtain a compound of the formula I in which Y denotes SO.sub.3 H, the reaction should be carried out in the absence of the neutralising agent, or the reaction is completed with an acidification.
The derivatives of the formula II can be prepared from the mono- and di-brominated compounds of the formula I.
In general terms, the compounds of the formula II which are mono-substituted on the methyl radical of the benzene nucleus, that is to say those in which Z' has the meaning --CH.sub.2 R, can be prepared by reacting a compound of the formula I with a nucleophilic compound carrying the radical R in accordance with the equation: ##STR6## in which Y and R have the abovementioned meanings.
The amino compounds of the formula II, in which the radical R represents --NR.sub.1 R.sub.2, can be prepared by reacting a compound of the formula, in which Z=--CH.sub.2 Br, with an excess of ammonia or of the corresponding amine of the formula HNR.sub.1 R.sub.2, in an inert solvent, preferably a chlorine-containing solvent, an aromatic solvent, an alcohol, or also a dipolar aprotic solvent such as dimethylformamide, and optionally in the presence of a neutralising agent such as an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal carbonate. Amongst the amines which can be used, the following may be mentioned: dimethylamine, diethylamine, diisopropylamine, dibutylamine, distearylamine, diethanolamine, morpholine, piperidine, pyrrolidine, piperazine, N-methylpiperazine and N-phenylpiperazine.
This process is illustrated, in particular, by Examples Nos. 3,4,7,8,9 to 13 and 77 below.
The quaternary compounds of the formula II can be prepared by reacting a compound of the formula I, in which Z=--CH.sub.2 Br, with heat with a tertiary amine of the formula NR.sub.1 R.sub.2 R.sub.3, in which the radicals R.sub.1 R.sub.2 R.sub.3 each have the abovementioned meanings except hydrogen. The reaction can be carried out in the absence of solvents or in the presence of a solvent such as those already mentioned above.
This process is illustrated in Examples Nos. 21 to 24 and 78.
The compounds of the formula II, in which R represents --OR.sub.4, --SR.sub.6 and --OCOR.sub.5, can be prepared by reacting either an alcohol or a phenol of the formula HOR.sub.4, or a thiol of the formula HSR.sub.6, or an acid of the formula HO-COR.sub.5, respectively, with a mono-brominated compound of the formula I, the radicals R.sub.4, R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 having the abovementioned meanings. In general, the reaction is carried out in the presence of an inorganic base, an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal hydroxide or carbonate, an alkali metal alcoholate, sodium hydride, an alkali metal, or also an organic base such as triethylamine.
In the above process, there may be mentioned:
The following alcohols and phenols: methanol, butanol, dodecanol, tetradecanol, hexadecanol, phenol, naphthol, hydroxybenzophenone, methyl salicylate, methyl 2-hydroxybenzoate, 2-ethylhexanol, oleyl alcohol, octanol, hexanol, dimethylaminoethanol, ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, di-(t-butyl)-p-cresol and menthol;
the following thiols: methanethiol, thioglycolic acid, mercaptosuccinic acid, cysteine, diethylaminoethanethiol, 2-mercaptobenzothiazole, 2-mercaptobenzoic acid, 3-mercaptopropionic acid and .beta.-aminoethanethiol; and
the following acids: tetradecanoic, hexadecanoic, benzoic, gentisic, 3,5-di-(t-butyl)-4-hydroxybenzoic and oleic acids.
When R.sub.4 represents hydrogen, the radical R then represents --OH, and a generator of OH ions, which can be a carbonate or a hydroxide as illustrated in Example 25, is used as the reactant.
Similarly, when R.sub.6 represents hydrogen, either an alkali metal hydrosulphide or thiourea can be used as the reactant, and an alkaline hydrolysis is then carried out in accordance with the usual techniques for the preparation of thiols.
This process is illustrated, in particular, by Examples Nos. 39, 25, 36, 37, 38, 40, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 55, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 56, 57, and 60, and by those of Table ll.
The compounds of the formula II, in which Z' represents --CHR'R', the radical R' represents --OR'.sub.4 and the radical R'.sub.4 having the abovementioned meanings, can be prepared in accordance with the equation: ##STR7## in which Y and R' have the abovementioned meanings, by reacting a compound of the formula I, in which Z=CHBr.sub.2, with an alcohol of the formula HOR'.sub.4. The reaction is suitably carried out in the presence of a base, as in the process for the preparation of the monosubstituted compounds of the formula II which contain the radicals R.sub.4 and R.sub.6.
The use of methanol, as illustrated by Example 50, may be mentioned in the above process.
The aldehydes corresponding to the general formula II, in which Z' represents --CHO, can be prepared in accordance with the equation: ##STR8## in which Y and R'.sub.4 have the abovementioned meanings, by hydrolysing, in an acid aqueous medium, an acetal of the general formula II in which R' represents --OR'.sub.4, as illustrated by Example 51.
Furthermore, the same aldehyde can be obtained by the direct oxidation of the monobrominated derivative of the formula I.
The compounds in which Z' represents --CHR'R', and R' represents SR'.sub.6, are preferably prepared from the corresponding aldehyde, in which Z'=CHO, and from a thiol R'.sub.6 SH (2 molar equivalents) by acid catalysis in accordance with the known methods for the preparation of mercaptals; such a preparation is illustrated by Example 73.
The acids of the general formula II can be prepared in accordance with the equation: ##STR9## in which Y has the abovementioned meanings, by oxidising an aldehyde of the general formula II, in which Z' has the meaning --CHO, as illustrated by Example 49.
The esters of the general formula II, in which Z' represents --COOR", can be obtained by esterifying the acid by means of an alcohol of the formula HOR" in which R" has the abovementioned meanings.
The acids of the formula II, in which Z' represents --CH.sub.2 --COOH, can also be prepared by oxidising the corresponding nitriles of the formula II, which are themselves prepared by reacting a compound of the formula I with a cyanide, and the corresponding esters are obtained by esterifying by means of an alcohol of the formula HOR". The compounds in which Z'=--CH.sub.2 I or CH.sub.2 S.sub.2 O.sub.3 Na can be obtained from a monobromo compound of formula I by reaction with respectively for example sodium iodide or with sodium thiosulphate, for example in an aqueous alcoholic medium or dimethylformamide, at 50 to 100 degrees C. Finally, the quaternary compounds of the general formula II can also be prepared by quaternising the compounds of the general formula Ii, in which Z' represents --CH.sub.2 -NR.sub.1 R.sub.2 and in which R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 do not represent hydrogen. Amongst the quaternising agents which can advantageously be used, there may be mentioned: dimethyl and diethyl sulphates, alkyl halides or sulphonates, hydroxyalkyl halides and propanesultone, as illustrated, in particular, in Examples 14 to 20 and 66 to 69.
Finally, the present invention provides a cosmetic composition containing one or more compounds of the formula I or II together with a carrier or diluent, which compounds are stable to light radiation and which make it possible to provide an effective protection of the human epidermis (skin) against radiation in the range of erythematogenic wavelengths from 280 to 320 nm, but which selectively allow radiation having a wavelength greater than 320 nm to pass through, thereby providing excellent conditions for bronzing without erythema.
The composition of the invention can be in the form of, for example, a solution, a lotion, an emulsion such as a cream, a gel or a milk, or an oil, and in general in all the usual forms of anti-actinic cosmetic compositions. It can also contain cosmetic adjuvants such as thickeners, softening agents, superfatting agents, emollients, wetting agents and surface-active agents, as well as preservatives, anti-foam agents, perfumes or any other compatible ingredient usually employed in cosmetics. The composition can also contain one or more propellants, such as Freons, volatile hydrocarbons, carbon dioxide gas or nitrous oxide, and it can be in the form of a "spray" or an aerosol.
The composition of the invention generally contains 0.5 to 10%, and preferably 1.5 to 6%, by weight of one or more compounds of the formula I or Ii. Among suitable solvents used, there may be mentioned water, mono- or poly-alcohols containing 1 to 4 carbon atoms, as well as mixtures thereof and, aqueous-alcoholic solutions. The alcohols which are preferably used are ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, propylene glycol, glycerol, sorbitol and oleyl alchol, and the aqueous-alcoholic mixtures are preferably mixtures of water and ethyl alcohol.
The composition of the invention can be either colourless or coloured with colorants and/or pigments which are usually employed in anti-sunburn compositions, and especially with iron oxides, typically in an amount from 0.01 to 0.2% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition, as illustrated in Examples B.sub.4, B.sub.5 and B.sub.6.
The very great flexibility of formulation offered by the use of the compounds of the formulae I and II is particularly apparent in compositions comprising different phases, such as "water-in-oil" or "oil-in-water" emulsions. In fact, as shown by Table 5, it is possible, in particular, to incorporate both a water-soluble compound and oil-soluble compound into the composition, in such a way that each of the phases contains an effective filter for stopping undesirable actinic radiation, by choosing from amongst the compounds having the desired solubility those which possess the best compatibility with the solvents and other ingredients contained in the composition. This great flexibility of formulation is made possible by means of the large number of the compounds of this invention, which, whilst exhibiting the same filtering properties, between the erythematogenic zone and the non-erythematogenic tanning zone (wavelength greater than 320 nm), offer a wide range of solubilities and compatibilities in relation to the usual cosmetic solvents and ingredients.
Amongst the examples of compositions containing a filter in each of the two phases, the compositions of Examples A.sub.7, B.sub.1 and B.sub.6 may be especially mentioned.
The composition of the invention can also contain other agents which are known for their protective action against solar radiation, such as agents which absorb part of the radiation, like the abovementioned compounds A and B, as illustrated by Examples A.sub.1 and A.sub.6.
The composition of the invention can also contain agents which favour the hydration of the skin or slow down its dehydration, such as pyrrolidonecarboxylic acid salts, hydroxy-acid salts, amino-acids or urea, as illustrated in Example B.sub.8, generally in an amount from 0.3 to 3% by weight.
When the composition contains amino compounds of the invention, it is advantageous, in order to obtain the desired solubility and compatibility characteristics, or to obtain the most favourable conditions of harmlessness, to use them in the form of a preparation which is prepared beforehand or at the time of use and which results from their total or partial neutralisation with an inorganic or organic acid. The composition then contains either the corresponding ammonium salt of the amino compound or a mixture of the abovementioned ammonium salt and the amino compound. Such a composition is illustrated by Examples A.sub.1, A.sub.4, A.sub.5, A.sub.6, B.sub.1 and B.sub.7.
Similarly, the composition can contain either acid compounds of the invention, or salts of these acids, or also mixtures resulting from their partial neutralisation with an inorganic or organic base, which neutralisation can be carried out beforehand or at the time of use, again in order to obtain advantageous conditions of solubility or compatibility, and/or better skin tolerance.
When the composition contains compounds of the invention which contain two different filtering activities, and especially in the case of compounds Nos. 13, 33, 34, 35 and 46, a particularly effective protection can be obtained.
The various types of composition of the invention are illustrated in the following manner: milks by Examples A.sub.1 to A.sub.7, creams by Examples B.sub.1 to B.sub.8, lotions by Examples C.sub.1 to C.sub.5, sprays by Examples D.sub.1 to D.sub.4, foams by Examples E.sub.1 and E.sub.2, and sun oils by Examples F.sub.1 and F.sub.2.
Amongst the cosmetic adjuvants included in the compositions of the invention in an amount of, say, 1 to 40% by weight relative to the weight of the composition, there may be mentioned lanolin, fatty acid triglycerides, glycerol, polyethylene glycols, oxyethyleneated lanolins, isopropyl palmitate and myristate, castor oil, cetyl/stearyl alcohol, glycerol monostearate, cetyl alcohol, butyl stearate and organic and inorganic waxes.
The Examples which follow, in which the percentages are by weight unless otherwise stated, and in which the temperatures are in degrees Centigrade, further illustrate the present invention.
