ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a composition for dyeing keratinic fibers, especially human hair. These compositions contain at least one p-aminophenol, one m-aminophenol, and one m-phenylenediamine. The operations of dyeing the keratinic fibers are performed by mixing the aforementioned composition with an oxidant, applying it to the keratinic fibers, and after a certain action time washing it out again with water and a shampoo.
For a certain group of applications, there is a demand for compositions which are capable of dyeing the hair in copper-colored, chestnut-brown to red shades. This demand is currently being satisfied by putting hair dyes with a content of certain oxidative colorants on the market. For example, in German Published, Non-Examined Patent Application DE-OS 36 10 396, to produce neutral red tints, the use of a combination of 5-amino-2methylphenol, 4-amino-3-methylphenol and 1,4-diaminobenzene and/or 2,5-diaminotoluene is specified. In European Published Patent Application EP 0 634 162, examples are given for combining 5-amino-2-methylphenol and its n-substituted derivatives, 4-amino-2-methylphenol, 4-amino-3-methylphenol, 4-amino-2-hydroxymethylphenol, and certain m-phenylenediamine derivatives.
The resistance of the hair colorings produced by the prior art to the effects of light, washing, weathering, sweat, and other hair treatments is unsatisfactory, however.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
It has now been surprisingly discovered that these disadvantages are avoided if a combination of the following dye precursors or dye compounds is used for oxidative hair coloring in the reddish color range:
at least one p-aminophenol derivative compounds in accordance with the general formula (I)
in which R

and R

, independently of one another, stand for hydrogen, a straight-chained or branched alkyl radical, a straight-chained or branched hydroxyalkyl radical, a straight-chained or branched aminoalkyl radical, a straight-chained or branched mono- or dialkylaminoalkyl radical, a straight-chained or branched acylaminoalkyl radical, a straight-chained or branched aryl- or alkylsulfonylaminoalkyl radical, a straight-chained or branched carbamidoalkyl radical, a radical, an acyl radical, an aryl radical, a straight-chained or branched alkylsulfonyl radical, or a carbamoyl radical, in which the alkyl radical in each case has from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, or R

form a heterocyclic, nonaromatic 5- or 6-side ring, which may additionally have an oxo group, or the salts of the aforementioned compounds;
at least one 5-amino-2-methylphenol derivative compound in accordance with the general formula (II),
in which the radical R stands for hydrogen, a straight-chained or branched alkyl group having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, a straight-chained or branched hydroxyalkyl group having from 2 to 4 carbon atoms, or a straight-chained or branched polyhydroxyalkyl group having from 3 to 4 carbon atoms;
at least one m-phenylenediamine derivative compounds in accordance with the general formula (III),
in which R
1
to R

, independently of one another, stand for a hydrogen atom, a straight-chained or branched alkyl group having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, a straight-chained or branched hydroxyalkyl group having from 2 to 4 carbon atoms, or a straight-chained or branched polyhydroxyalkyl group having from 3 to 4 carbon atoms; and wherein
R

stands for a hydrogen atom, a straight-chained or branched alkyl group having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, a straight-chained or branched alkoxy group having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, a straight-chained or branched hydroxyalkyl group having from 2 to 4 carbon atoms, or a straight-chained or branched polyhydroxyalkyl group having from 3 to 4 carbon atoms; and
R

, independently of R
1
, R
2
and R

, stands for a hydrogen atom, a straight-chained or branched alkyl group having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, a straight-chained or branched alkoxy group having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, a straight-chained or branched hydroxyalkyl group having from 2 to 4 carbon atoms, or a straight-chained or branched polyhydroxyalkyl group having from 3 to 4 carbon atoms.
The synthesis and use of compounds in accordance with general formula (I) in oxidative hair dyes is known in principle from Published, Non-Examined German Patent Application DE-OS 35 43 345, but the combinations disclosed in the present application have surprising advantages with regard to stability in withstanding the damaging effect of light and air.
Preferred derivative compounds in accordance with general formula (I) are the compounds 4-amino-2-aminomethylphenol, 4-amino-2-[(2′-hydroxyethyl)aminomethyl]phenol and 4-amino-2-(dimethylaminomethyl)phenol.
Preferred derivative compounds in accordance with general formula (II) are the compounds 5-amino-2-methylphenol, 5-methylamino-2-methylphenol, and 5-[(2′-hydroxyethyl)amino]-2-methylphenol.
Preferred derivative compounds in accordance with general formula (II) are the compounds 2-amino-4-[(2′-hydroxyethyl)amino]anisole, and m-phenylenediamine.
In addition to the dye precursor compound combinations of at least one derivative compound according to formula (I), at least one derivative compound according to formula (II) and at least one derivative compound according to formula (III), the compositions according to the invention can also include a dye precursor compound combination of at least one derivative compound according to formula (I), at least one derivative compound according to formula (II) and at least one member selected from the group consisting of 2,4-diamino-1-(2′-hydroxyethoxy)benzene, 2,4-diamino-1-(2′,3′-dihydroxypropoxy)benzene, 1,3-bis(2′,4′-diaminophenoxy)propane and 1,5-bis(2′-hydroxyethoxy)-2,4-diaminobenzene.
To round out the outcome of dyeing and to create special dye effects, the hair dye may contain other oxidative colorant precursors, such as derivatives of p-phenylenediamine, for example 2-(2′,5′-diaminophenyl)ethanol; resorcinol derivatives, such as resorcinol or 4-chlororesorcinol, amino and hydroxy derivatives of 1,3-benzodioxole, such as 5-hydroxy-1,3-benzodioxole or 5-((2′-hydroxyethylamino-1,3-benzodioxole; naphthalene derivatives, such as 1-hydroxynaphthalene, 1,5-dihydroxynaphthalene, or 1,7-dihydroxynaphthalene; and direct dyes, such as 2-amino-4,6-dinitrophenol, 2-ethylamino-4,6-dinitrophenol, 2-[(2′-hydroxyethyl)amino]-4,6-dinitrophenol, 2-amino-6-chloro-4-nitrophenol, or 2-chloro-6-ethylamino-4-nitrophenol.
The above-described combinations according to the invention of oxidative dye precursors and optionally direct dyes are applied for dyeing purposes in a suitable dye precursor-containing composition.
The subject of the present application therefore also relates to a ready-to-use composition for oxidatively dyeing hair which is prepared by mixing the dye precursor-containing composition of the invention with an oxidant immediately prior to use.
The dye precursor-containing composition according to the invention contains the above-described combinations according to the invention of oxidative hair colorants and optionally direct dyes either per so or in the form of biocompatible salts, for instance in the form of hydrochlorides, sulfates or tartrates, or in the case of phenols in the form of alkali phenolates.
The total concentration of color precursors or dye compounds is 0.1 to 10 weight %, preferably 0.2 to 6 weight %. The concentration of the individual hair colorings is 0.01 to 5 weight %, and preferably 0.1 to 4 weight %.
Typical cosmetic additives can also be contained in the dye precursor-containing composition, examples being such antioxidants as ascorbic acid, thioglycolic acid or sodium sulfite; perfume oils; complexing agents; wetting agents; emulsifiers; thickeners; conditioners, and others.
The form of preparation for the chromophore composition and also for the oxidative colorant for hair that is ready to use may for example be a solution, and in particular an aqu
