FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to compositions for the oxidative dyeing of keratin fibers comprising radical scavengers and chelants. The invention also relates to methods for reducing color formation outside of the keratin fiber during oxidative dyeing comprising using such compositions.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The permanent alteration of the color of keratinous fibers, in particular human hair, by the application of hair dyes is well known. In order to provide the consumer with the hair color and the intensity of color desired, a very complex chemical process is utilized. Permanent hair dyeing formulations typically comprise developers (also known as oxidative hair dye precursors or primary intermediates) and couplers (also known as color modifiers or secondary intermediates). Developers are sufficiently small to diffuse into the hair shaft where, once activated by an oxidizing agent, such as hydrogen peroxide, the developers react with other dye compounds, e.g., couplers, to form larger colored complexes, chromophores in the hair shaft. Couplers, which are also sufficiently small to diffuse into the hair shaft, are generally colorless molecules that form colors in the presence of activated developers. Developers can be used alone or in combination with other developers, and one or more can be used in combination with one or more couplers.
Hair colorant products are typically sold in the form of kits containing a dye component, e.g., a dye lotion, and an oxidizing component, e.g., a hydrogen peroxide solution. The dye component typically has developers (also known as oxidative hair dye precursors or primary intermediates) and couplers (also known as color modifiers or secondary intermediates). In use, the dye component is mixed with the oxidizing component and the resultant mixture is applied to the hair. Developers are sufficiently small to diffuse into the hair shaft where, once activated by an oxidizing agent, such as hydrogen peroxide, the developers react with other dye compounds, e.g., couplers, to form larger colored complexes, chromophores in the hair shaft. Couplers, which are also sufficiently small to diffuse into the hair shaft, are generally colorless molecules that form colors in the presence of activated developers. When the dye component and the oxidizing component are mixed, oxidizing agent present in the oxidizing component begins to oxidize developers present in the dye component and the oxidized developers begin to react with couplers to form chromophores. Thus, some fraction of chromophores is formed outside of the hair fibers, e.g., in the mixing container, before the mixture is applied to the hair. The chromophores formed in the hair shaft do not readily diffuse out of the hair during subsequent washing with water and/or detergents and thereby give the colorant benefit desired by consumers.
When oxidation of the developers takes place outside of the hair, in the mixing container, the dyeing power of the colorant composition (dyeing composition and oxidant composition combined together) gradually decreases and it can become more difficult to achieve a uniform color on the head (between the time when the dyeing composition is applied to the first lock of hair to the time when the dyeing composition is applied to the last lock treated, the dyeing composition is completely oxidized). Inhibiting oxidation of the developers outside of the hair improves dye efficiency, by reducing the premature consumption of dye intermediates. Finally, when oxidation of the developers outside of the hair is inhibited, the color generated by the colorant composition is more reproducible, from user to user. It is therefore desirable that a colorant composition does not form color outside of the hair fiber.
Attempts have been made to inhibit the oxidation of developers outside of the hair and thereby inhibit color formation outside of the hair. For example, 1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone is known to the hair color industry as an antioxidant that can inhibit the oxidation of developers. However, 1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone also penetrates hair and functions as a coupler, forming a pink color upon reaction with p-phenylenediamine (PPD) or its analogs. The use of 1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone as an antioxidant would therefore require reformulation of colorant compositions in order to offset the color change in hair (hair color would shift to a redder hue). Hair colorant products are typically marketed in multiple different shades (sometimes hundreds of different shades) and the use of 1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone as an antioxidant may require widespread reformulation, which is undesired. As such, previous attempts to inhibit the oxidation of developers outside of the hair and inhibit color formation outside of the hair, e.g., using 1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone, have not been successful.
It has been found that the herein described inhibiting system comprising the herein described pyrazol-5-one radical scavengers comprising at least one substituent substituted with a CO2−, SO3−, PO32−, or mixtures thereof and chelants, act synergistically to inhibit the oxidation of developers outside of the hair and thereby inhibit color formation outside of the hair, without significantly altering the color of the hair. The use of the inhibiting system, therefore, does not require reformulation of colorant compositions to offset the color shift of the hair as that found when using 1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to a dyeing composition for the oxidative dyeing of keratin fibers comprising at least one coupler compound, at least one developer compound, and an inhibiting system comprising at least one radical scavenger selected from pyrazol-5-one compounds comprising at least one substituent substituted with a CO2−, SO3−, PO32−, or mixtures thereof, tautomeric compounds thereof, salts thereof, and derivatives thereof, according to the formulas defined herein, and at least one chelant. This invention further relates to a method for reducing color formation outside of the keratin fiber during oxidative dyeing of the fiber, the method comprising applying such dyeing compositions to the keratin fiber, in the presence of an oxidizing composition, for a period of time sufficient to develop the desired coloration.


DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
As used herein the term “hair” to be treated may be “living” i.e. on a living body or may be “non-living” i.e. in a wig, hairpiece or other aggregation of non-living keratinous fibers. Mammalian, particularly human, hair is preferred. However, wool, fur, and other keratin containing fibers are suitable substrates for the compositions according to the present invention.
It is to be understood that within the scope of this invention, numerous potentially and actually tautomeric compounds are involved. Thus, for example, the pyrazol-5-one compounds described herein have keto-enol tautomerism under certain pH conditions and as such general structures shown herein encompass both tautomeric compounds such at the shown below in structures (I) to




It is to be understood that when this development refers to a particular structure, all of the reasonable additional tautomeric structures are included. In the art, tautomeric structures are frequently represented by one single structure and the invention follows this general practice.
As used herein, “significantly altering the color” of the keratinous fibers or hair means that hair treated with a coloring composition comprising the inhibiting system and measured according the method below has a delta (Δ) E is less than 4, preferably less than 3.5 and the absolute value of a delta (Δ) h is less than 5 (Δh<|5|) compared to the coloring composition without the inhibiting system.
As used herein “reducing color formation outside of the keratin fiber” or “inhibit the composition for the oxidative dyeing of keratin fibers described herein, when in the presence of an oxidizing agent, to form the coloring composition after 30 minutes, when measured according to the method below has a delta (Δ) E of less than 10 and a delta (Δ) L of less than 5 compared to the coloring composition without the inhibiting system.
According to the present invention through the use of an inhibiting system comprising certain pyrazol-5-one compounds comprising at least one substituent substituted with a CO2−, SO3−, PO32−, or mixtures thereof, tautomeric compounds thereof, salts thereof, and derivatives thereof, according to the formulas defined herein, in combination with certain chelants, act synergistically to inhibit color formation outside of the hair, without significantly altering the color inside the hair. The use of the inhibiting system, therefore, does not require reformulation of colorant compositions to offset the color shift of the hair.
The dyeing compositions of the present invention comprise an inhibiting system comprising one or more radical scavengers as discussed herein and one or more chelants.
Radical scavengers and chelants, as well as other relevant components of the dyeing composition and colorant composition (resulting mixture of dyeing composition and oxidizing composition), are described in detail hereinafter.
Radical Scavenger Compound
The term radical scavenger refers to a species that can react with both hydroxyl radicals and secondary radicals (radicals derived from the oxidation of developers and formulation components, e.g., certain surfactants, adjuvants, solvents, by hydrogen peroxide or hydroxyl radical) to convert the radicals by a series of fast reactions to less reactive species, thereby stopping the free radical chain reaction from propagating further to yield dyes in the dyeing compositing. Radical chemistry is important in the initiation and propagation of color chemistry both in the keratin fiber and in the colorant composition (including developers, couplers, oxidizing agent, solvents, thickeners, surfactants, etc.). Inside the hair and on the surface of the hair, the major radical initiation mechanism is via redox metals, which accelerate dye chemistry by rapidly initiating radical chemistry.
According to the present invention, certain pyrazol-5-one compounds comprising at least one substituent substituted with a CO2−, SO3−, PO32−, or mixtures thereof, tautomeric compounds thereof, salts thereof, and derivatives thereof, according to the formulas defined herein, quench radicals to terminate free radical chain reactions, thus stopping color formation outside of hair. In combination with certain chelants, which inhibit radical initiation (via redox metals) on the surface of the hair, these pyrazol-5-ones reduce both radical initiation and propagation, without significantly altering the color of the hair.
Without being bound by theory, it is believed that the pyrazol-5-one compounds of the invention do not penetrate the hair to any significant extent under typical oxidative hair-coloring conditions (pH from 8.5-10.5, preferably from 9.0-10.5, room temperature 20-30° C. for 10-45 minutes), thereby not affecting color formation inside the hair.
In some embodiments, the pyrazol-5-one radical scavengers are negatively charged. A negatively charged radical scavenger does not penetrate hair fibers, which are also negatively charged. Diffusion and Distribution of Element-Labelled Surfactants in Human Hair Int. J. Cos. Sci. 26 p. 61-69 (2004).

Methods of Use
It is understood that the examples of methods of use and embodiments described herein are for illustrative purposes only and that various modifications or changes in light thereof will be suggested to one skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the present invention.
Colorant compositions are usually sold in kits comprising, in individually packaged components such as separate containers, a dyeing composition (also called “dye cream” for emulsions or “dye liquid” for solutions) comprising the oxidative dye precursors and alkalizing agent in a suitable carrier, and; an oxidizing composition comprising a hydrogen peroxide component (also called “hydrogen peroxide cream” for emulsions or “hydrogen peroxide liquid” for solutions). The consumer mixes the dyeing composition and oxidizing composition together immediately before use and applies it onto the hair.
Typically, the colorant composition is allowed to act on the hair for about 2 to about 60, in some embodiments, from about 10 to about 45, in certain embodiments, from about 15 to about 30 minutes, at a temperature ranging from about 15° to about 50° C. In some cases, the colorant composition is allowed to act for about 5 to about 10 minutes. In certain cases, the colorant composition is allowed to act for about 2 to about 5 minutes. Thereafter, the hair is rinsed with water, to remove the colorant composition, and then the hair is dried. Optionally, a separate conditioning product may also be applied to the hair after it is rinsed with water but before the hair is dried, generally the conditioning product is also rinsed with water from the hair.
The method of coloring the hair is typically a sequential oxidative hair coloring method comprising the steps of at least two sequential oxidative hair color treatments with the colorant composition of the present application wherein the time period between each treatment is from 1 to 60 days, preferably from 1 to 40 days, more preferably from 1 to 28 days, even more preferably from 1 to 14 days and most preferably from 1 to 7 days.
The method of the present application may include the application of a pre-treatment to the hair. The pre-treatment composition (“first composition”) can be applied immediately before the colorant composition (mixture of oxidizing composition and dyeing composition) is applied or after a longer period of time. In the case of a pre-treatment applied on hair and immediately followed by the application of the colorant composition, in some embodiments, the pre-treatment composition will be left on the hair during the application of the colorant composition, the resulting mixture being rinsed off following the instructed period of time for the color treatment.
Kits
Colorant compositions are usually sold in kits comprising, in individually packaged components, such as separate containers, a dyeing composition (e.g., dye cream for emulsions or dye liquid for solutions), comprising developers, couplers, an inhibiting system, a buffering/alkalizing agent (typically ammonia), and, optionally, a source of carbonate ion in a suitable carrier, and an oxidizing composition comprising an oxidizing agent (typically hydrogen peroxide, e.g., hydrogen peroxide cream for emulsions or hydrogen peroxide liquid for solutions). The kits further may comprise instructions for usage, gloves and optionally an application instrument such as a dispensing device, brush, comb or the like. A consumer would utilize the instructions for mixing the dyeing composition and oxidizing composition together immediately before use and applies it onto the hair with the application instrument, when present.
The present invention may be utilized in a variety of packaging and dispensing devices. These dispensing devices can come in the form of separate devices which may be used independently or in combination with one another. Typically, the colorant compositions are contained within separate single or multi compartment containers so that the dyeing composition and the oxidizing composition can be stored separately from one another before use by the end user. The dyeing and oxidizing compositions are then mixed together by a mixing means, such mean including agitating or shaking the resulting mixed composition (colorant composition) within a single closable package or stiffing the resulting mixed composition (colorant composition) within a single package or container and then applied to the end user's hair by an application means.
Methods of Manufacture
The dyeing compositions of this invention may be manufactured using conventional methods. The dyeing compositions may be formed as solutions, preferably as aqueous or aqueous-alcohol solutions. The dyeing compositions may also be formed as thick liquids, creams, gels, or emulsions. Specific examples are provided below.

Test Data

(i) Color Formation of the Dye Precursors in Solution

The dye combinations p-phenylenediamine plus 4-amino-2-hydroxytoluene and p-amino phenol plus 4-amino-2-hydroxytoluene were added to deionized water at a concentration of 0.0125M for each dye precursor. The solutions also contained 3% propylene glycol, 4% ammonium hydroxide (30% active), buffered to pH 10.3 with acetic acid, sodium sulfite, ascorbic acid, EDTA and 3.0% of hydrogen peroxide (35% active). For each dye combination a set of four separate solutions were tested with the chelant diethylenetriaminepentakis(methylenephosphonic acid) and the radical scavenger 1-(4-carboxyphenyl)-3-methylpyrazol-5-one.
Leg 1—Solution only, no additional chelant or radical scavenger
Leg 2—1% of radical scavenger (0.046M)
Leg 3—1.2% of radical scavenger (0.055M)
Leg 4—0.63% chelant (0.0092M)
Leg 5—1% of radical scavenger (0.046M)+0.63% chelant (0.0092M)
Finally, 0.15 g of previously color-treated hair was added to each of the dye solutions. The color formation in the solution was tracked visually via imaging with the Nikon D1x camera and color measurements were taken using the DigiEye software. Color formation was measured at time=0 and time=30, after the hair had been removed. This color at 30 minutes was compared to the color at time=0. The color difference (delta (Δ)E or dE) values were calculated according to the equation:

dE=[(dL)2+(da)2+(db)2]1/2 

    
    
        delta (Δ) a is “da” and delta (Δ)b is “db”

The results are shown in Tables 1 and 2. The delta (Δ) L (or dL) number is also significant as it is a measure of change in the lightness of the colour. Higher dL and dE values mean more color has formed in the solution and therefore not available to form within the hair shaft. Therefore lower dL and dE values are preferred.

    
    


For both dye combinations the chelant and radical scavenger work synergistically to reduce the color formed in the solution. This effect is not seen if the radical scavenger concentration is increased to 0.055M. For both sets of dye combinations, the color of the hair after 30 minutes was identical to the color at 0 minutes, indicating that the combination of the radical scavenger and chelant can reduce the color formation in the solution but maintain the color inside the hair.
L=measure of lightness and has a value between 0 and 100.
C=measure of chroma (saturation).
h=measure of hue and is represented as an angle ranging from 0° to 360° (angles 0°-90° are reds, oranges and yellows; angles 90°-180° are yellows, yellow-greens and greens; 180°-270° are greens, blue-greens and blues; 270-360 are blues, purples and magentas, and return to red) (The World of Hair Colour: A Scientific Companion, Dr. John Gray, page 17, 2005).

(ii) Color Formation in an Emulsion (Gel) Formulation

In the following sets of experiments, a commercial hair colorant was used (NICE'N EASY® Medium Brown 118), which contains 0.5-1.0 wt % (by weight of the composition) EDDS as a chelant. The indicated radical scavengers of Table 3 and Table 4 were added to this emulsion (2 wt % by weight of the composition) and mixed thoroughly ensuring that the entire amount of added radical scavenger had dissolved. The pH was adjusted to pH 10. In the first set of experiments described below (Table 3), 10 g of the resulting mixed product (emulsion or gel) was placed in a weigh boat at room temperature (23° C.) and the color of the resulting mixed product measured after 30 and 45 minutes using the Nikon D1x camera and the DigiEye image analysis software. The color of the resulting mixed product at T (time)=30 and 45 minutes was compared to the color of the resulting mixed product at T=5 minutes. The change in color of the resulting mixed product (dE) was calculated from the initial color and final color readings. These experiments assessed the ability of the radical scavenger to prevent color formation in the resulting mixed product. No hair was added to the resulting mixed product.
In the second set of experiments described below (Table 4), a 1.5 g, 6 inch hair switch of uncolored natural white hair was added to a minimum of 6 g of resulting mixed product and left for 30 minutes at room temperature (23° C.). After 30 minutes the resulting mixed product was rinsed off the hair for 2 minutes and then dried. The color of the hair was measured with a Minolta CM-3700d spectrophotometer.
For each set of experiments, a control formulation with no added radical scavenger was included in the test. As batch-to-batch variation my occur for such commercially available products, it is preferable that a new control formulation is utilized for each comparison rather than using a single measurement for one control formulation as the comparison.
The color of the control formulation-treated hair and the hair treated with the radical scavenger-containing formulation (resulting mixed product) were compared. The color difference (dE) was calculated as the difference between the final color of the hair treated with the control formulation and the final color of the hair treated with the resulting mixed product formulation. The hue different (delta (Δ)h or dh) was calculated as the difference in hue between the control formulation and the resulting mixed product formulation. This set of experiments assessed the ability of the radical scavenger to maintain color formation inside the hair.
Table 3 shows the results from the first set of experiments, with the resulting mixed product only, and Table 4 shows the results from the second set of experiments, with the added hair swatch. The results show that the described pyrazolone compounds with the carboxylate or sulphonate groups and the tautomeric compounds therefore (i.e., negatively charged at pH 10) of the present invention give significantly less color in the resulting mixed product than the control formulation but maintain the desired color in the hair (i.e., little change in dE of the emulsion versus T=5 minutes and little change in dE and dH of the hair versus the control, with no radical scavenger). The pyrazolone scavengers with no carboxylate or sulphonate groups prevent color formation in the emulsion but the color inside the hair is not acceptable given the desired end color point.

Experimental design—four dyeing mixtures are prepared as follows:

    
    
        (a) Control: 5 g of L'Oreal PREFERENCE® 5, medium brown containing DTPA chelant tint mixed with 5 g of developer (a formula containing 6% H2O2) from the same package.
        (b) Control+hair: 2 ̃2.5 g of Piedmont white virgin hair treated with the dyeing mixture described in (a).
        (c) With 2% antioxidant: 0.2 g of the described pyrazolone was dissolved in 5 g of PREFERENCE® 5 tint, then mixed with 5 g of developer from the same package, the pH was adjusted back to 10 with 50% aqueous sodium hydroxide.
        (d) With 2% antioxidant+hair: 2 ̃2.5 grams of Piedmont white virgin hair treated with the dyeing gel mixture described in (c).
    
    


The four different mixtures are contained in separate plastic weighing boats. Pictures are taken under D65 lighting conditions by a DigiEye camera every 5 minutes for 30 minutes. The hair switches are then rinsed, shampooed and dried with a hair blower.
The reported color data of hair was obtained by CM-3700d Minolta spectrophotometer as described above. The dE and dh are calculated between the hair switch dyed in the control containing DTPA chelant (L'Oreal PREFERENCE® 5, medium brown) and the hair switch dyed in the dyeing gel with 2 w % of the indicated pyrazolone.

Experimental conditions for the information in Tables 6 and 7 are identical as the ones listed in Table 1. dE and dL are calculated for 30 minutes between the time points of 5th minute and the 35th minute of the same sample, which are indicative of the scale of color change.

All percentages, parts and ratios are based upon the total weight of the compositions of the present invention, unless otherwise specified. All such weights as they pertain to listed ingredients are based on the active level and, therefore, do not include solvents or by-products that may be included in commercially available materials, unless otherwise specified. When more than one composition are used during a treatment, the total weight to be considered is the total weight of all the compositions applied on the hair simultaneously (i.e. the weight found “on head”) unless otherwise specified. The term “weight percent” may be denoted as “wt. %” herein.
The dimensions and values disclosed herein are not to be understood as being strictly limited to the exact numerical values recited. Instead, unless otherwise specified, each such dimension is intended to mean both the recited value and a functionally equivalent range surrounding that value. For example, a dimension disclosed as “40 mm” is intended to mean “about 40 mm.”
Every document cited herein, including any cross referenced or related patent or application, is hereby incorporated herein by reference in its entirety unless expressly excluded or otherwise limited. The citation of any document is not an admission that it is prior art with respect to any invention disclosed or claimed herein or that it alone, or in any combination with any other reference or references, teaches, suggests or discloses any such invention. Further, to the extent that any meaning or definition of a term in this document conflicts with any meaning or definition of the same term in a document incorporated by reference, the meaning or definition assigned to that term in this document shall govern.
While particular embodiments of the present invention have been illustrated and described, it would be obvious to those skilled in the art that various other changes and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. It is therefore intended to cover in the appended claims all such changes and modifications that are within the scope of this invention.
