## Title
Means for dyeing and/or matting keratinic fibres containing novel 1,4 diaminoanthraquinone dyes

## Abstract

Agents for coloring and/or matting keratinic fibers, in particular human hair, include in a cosmetic carrier at least one specific substituted 1,4-diaminoanthraquinone derivative of formula (I), wherein the residues (R2, R4) mutually independently denote a grouping of formula (II). The cosmetic method of using these agents can be for producing intense blue shades and for matting keratin fibers.

## Background
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention generally relates to agents for coloring and/or matting keratin-containing fibers, in particular human hair, which include novel derivatives of 1,4-diaminoanthraquinone. The invention furthermore relates to the use of these agents and to a corresponding method.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
In general, it is either substantive dyes or oxidation dyes which are used for coloring keratinic fibers. Although intense and sustained colorings may be achieved with oxidation dyes, the color generally develops under the influence of oxidizing agents such as for example H2O2, which may in some cases result in damage to the fibers. Moreover, some oxidation dye precursors or certain mixtures of oxidation dye precursors may have a sensitizing effect in people with sensitive skin. Substantive dyes are applied under milder conditions. The disadvantage thereof, however, is that the colorings frequently are not sustained as long as those produced from oxidation dyes, in particular when the hair is washed, but also in relation to external influences, such as sunlight or reactive environmental chemicals, such as for example swimming pool water.
One particular challenge for hair coloring using substantive dyes is uniformly coloring frequently pretreated hair, such as for example bleached or permed hair, in which the fibers have highly variable levels of prior damage at different lengths or in differently treated areas. During the actual coloring, the coloring agent may exhibit uneven coloring behavior on hair suffering differing levels of prior damage, but repeated hair washing can also wash out the dyes to varying extents in the different areas of hair, leading to a non-uniform and thus unwanted coloring result.
It is therefore desirable to provide coloring agents for keratinic fibers, in particular human hair, which exhibit good applicational properties with regard to color depth and fastness characteristics, such as in particular light, abrasion and washing fastness as well as sweat and cold perming fastness. Finally, it is particularly desirable to provide coloring agents with a good equalizing capacity.
If keratinic fibers are to be oxidatively lightened or blonded, substantive dyes may also be used in combination with oxidizing agents. Hair is generally blonded by applying aqueous hydrogen peroxide solutions, either alone or in combination with further oxidizing agents acting as bleach activators such as for example persulfate salts, onto the keratin fibers. In order to achieve a sufficient blonding action, such agents are conventionally strongly alkalized, the pH generally being between 9 and 10.5. Under the action of the oxidizing agents, the melanins, the natural, color-imparting pigments of hair fibers, are oxidatively destroyed and the fibers are consequently decolorized or lightened. Melanins are located in the cortex of the hair fibers and may be divided into two classes of pigments. Eumelanins are the first, brownish-black class of pigments, while the reddish pigments with a higher sulfur content are known as pheomelanins. Due to the different levels of resistance of the various types of pigment to oxidizing agents, the pheomelanins and eumelanins are, however, not always uniformly decolorized. In addition, in darker hair with an elevated melanin content, the melanins may only be partially or incompletely broken down and therefore a residual proportion of the color-imparting pigments remains in the hair after blonding. In these cases, the residual content of melanins still present in the hair after the oxidative process results in a yellowish to reddish shift in shade. Therefore, in particular when blonding darker hair, a color shift towards warm tints occurs.
Users do not normally desire such color shifts towards warm tints. This color shift is therefore usually counteracted by tinting in the corresponding complementary color according to color theory. The aim here is to achieve a silvery cool appearance of the bleaching result. A person skilled in the art refers to this as matting. Blue substantive dyes may in particular be used for matting blond shades with an orange cast. In order to ensure the completest possible attenuation of the orange color appearance, it is advantageous for the blue dye itself to have no red content in its coloring. Dyes in pure blue and in particular in grayish blue shades are thus better suited to matting an orange blonding result than are blue dyes with a violet cast. However, despite the numerous blue dyes usable in hair coloring products, no dyes are known from the prior art which optimally meet all the above-stated requirements. There is accordingly still a major need for novel substantive dyes with corresponding coloring and matting properties.
GB 1 053 300 describes a process for coloring hair in which 1,4-diaminoanthraquinone derivatives may be used which bear one or two dialkylaminoalkyl substituents on the amino groups thereof. These dyes are intended to have a good coloring capacity, elevated water solubility and elevated lightfastness. The range of shades extends from intense blue via blue-violet to mauve, pink and blue-green. Blue colorings with a gray cast cannot, however, be obtained by means of these dyes. DE 1 644 306 discloses a method for producing 1,4-diaminoanthraquinone derivatives which bear an aminoalkylamino substituent on each of the two nitrogen atoms of the anthraquinone ring. The dyes produced in the context of this method are intended to have an elevated affinity for keratin fibers and good washing fastness. The range of shades achieved with the dyes extends from yellow to blue. Blue color shades with a gray shift cannot be achieved with these derivatives either.
It is particularly desirable to find novel matting dyes which meet the conventional fastness requirements placed on substantive dyes, have good storage stability and furthermore have a blue color shade tending strongly towards grayish without any red content. It is intended to be possible to use the dyes not only in the form of a post-treatment after the oxidative blonding process but, in single-stage methods, also simultaneously with the oxidizing agent, for which reason they must additionally have good stability towards the oxidizing agents.
Furthermore, other desirable features and characteristics of the present invention will become apparent from the subsequent detailed description of the invention and the appended claims, taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and this background of the invention.

Keratinic fibers, keratin-containing fibers or keratin fibers should here be taken to mean furs, wool, feathers and in particular human hair. Although the agents according to the invention are primarily suitable for lightening keratin fibers, there is no reason in principle why they should not also be used in other fields.
The phrase “coloring keratin fibers” used according to the invention includes any kind of color modification of the fibers. In particular, color modifications falling within the terms tinting, blonding, oxidative coloring, semipermanent coloring, permanent coloring and temporary coloring are included. Color modifications which provide a lighter coloring result than the initial color, such as for example blonding with coloring, are explicitly also included according to the invention. The phrase “matting keratin fibers” is taken to mean counteracting undesired shifts in shade which occur during oxidative color modification of keratin fibers, in particular during blonding or bleaching processes. The aim of matting is to attenuate the orange to reddish color appearance caused by incomplete blonding and to produce a silvery cool perceived color after the blonding process. The active substances used during matting may be applied in the form of a post-treatment step after blonding or bleaching of the keratin fibers.
It is, however, likewise possible to apply the active substances used for matting to the keratin fibers in the course of a single-stage method together with the blonding agent or the bleaching agent. Active substances suitable for matting which may be used are substantive dyes, either alone or in the dye mixture, having suitable color properties. It is furthermore likewise possible to use substantive dyes in combination with oxidation dye precursors (developers and couplers) for matting.
The agents according to the invention include the compounds of formula (I) in a cosmetic carrier. This cosmetic carrier is preferably aqueous, alcoholic or aqueous-alcoholic. Carriers suitable for the purpose of hair treatment are for example creams, emulsions, gels or also surfactant-containing foaming solutions, such as for example shampoos, foam aerosols or other preparations which are suitable for use on the hair. It is, however, also possible for storage purposes to provide a formulation which assumes pulverulent or also tablet form. Said formulation is then mixed prior to use in an aqueous solvent or with organic solvents or with mixtures of water and organic solvents to obtain the mixture for use. An aqueous carrier includes for the purposes of the invention at least 40 wt. %, in particular at least 50 wt. %, water. For the purposes of the present invention, aqueous-alcoholic solutions should be taken to be aqueous solutions including 3 to 70 wt. % of a C1-C4 alcohol, in particular ethanol or isopropanol. The agents according to the invention may additionally include further organic solvents, such as for example 4-methoxybutanol, ethyl diglycol, 1,2-propylene glycol, n-propanol, n-butanol, n-butylene glycol, glycerol, diethylene glycol monoethyl ether and diethylene glycol mono-n-butyl ether. Any water-soluble organic solvents are preferred for this purpose. Preferred agents according to the invention are characterized in that they additionally include a nonaqueous solvent, wherein preferred agents according to the invention include the solvent in a concentration of 0.1 to 30 wt. %, preferably in a concentration of 1 to 20 wt. %, particularly preferably in a concentration of 2 to 10 wt. %, in each case relative to the agent.

Examples of halogen atoms are F, Cl, Br or I atoms, wherein Br and Cl atoms are particularly preferred. Compounds of the general formula (I), in which the substituents X1 and X2 mutually independently represent a hydrogen atom, a hydroxyl group, a C1-C6 alkoxy group, a C1-C6 alkyl group, an amino group or a halogen atom are particularly suitable for matting and are therefore preferred.
The shift in shade involving an orange cast of blonded keratin fibers may above all be effectively counteracted if the compounds of formula (I) used for this purpose are those in which the substituents X1 and X2 mutually independently denote a hydrogen atom or a C1-C6 alkoxy group.
A preferred embodiment of the present invention is accordingly an agent for coloring and/or matting keratinic fibers which is characterized in that it includes at least one compound of formula (I), in which X1 and X2 mutually independently denote a hydrogen atom, a hydroxyl group, a C1-C6 alkoxy group, a C1-C6 alkyl group, an amino group, or a halogen atom, preferably mutually independently denote a hydrogen atom or a C1-C6 alkoxy group.
It is particularly preferred for X1 and X2 both to denote a hydrogen atom, or alternatively for X1 to denote a hydrogen atom and X2 a methoxy group.
Compounds of formula (I), in which the residues R1 and R3 mutually independently denote a hydrogen atom, a C1-C6 alkyl group, a C2-C6 alkenyl group, or a hydroxy-C2-C6-alkyl group have likewise proved particularly suitable with regard to the applicational properties thereof. R1 and R3 more preferably mutually independently denote a hydrogen atom or a C1-C6 alkyl group. R1 and R3 particularly preferably both denote a hydrogen atom.
In formula (II), Y1 preferably denotes an oxygen atom (—O—), amide group —CONR5- or a group —NR5-. Y1 more preferably denotes an oxygen atom (—O—) or a group —NR5-. Dyes which are very highly suitable according to the invention with elevated affinity for keratin fibers are above all also those compounds of formula (I), in which R2 and R4 in each case denote a grouping of formula (II), in which Y2 denotes a hydrogen atom, a hydroxyl group, a C1-C6 alkoxy group, or a group —NR5R6.
The residues R5 and R6 preferably mutually independently denote a hydrogen atom or a C1-C6 alkyl group, particularly preferably mutually independently denote a hydrogen atom or a methyl group.
Compounds, of formula (I) which have proved particularly suitable for solving the problem of the invention are also those in which Y2 denotes a hydrogen atom, a hydroxyl group, a methoxy group or an amino group (with R5 and R6 being hydrogen).
A further preferred embodiment is an agent for coloring and/or matting keratinic fibers which is characterized in that it includes at least one compound of formula (I), in which R1 and R3 in each case denote a hydrogen atom and R2 and R4 mutually independently in each case denote a grouping of formula (II),

—(CH2)n—Y1-(CH2)m—Y2  (II)

in which

    Y1 denotes an oxygen atom (—O—), an amide group —CONR5- or a group —NR5-,
    Y2 denotes a hydrogen atom, a hydroxyl group, a C1-C6 alkoxy group or a group —NR5R6,

    m denotes an integer from 1 to 6,

In the course of the work leading to the present invention, it has surprisingly been found that the nature of formula (II) has a very decisive influence on substantivity and, in this connection, also on the fastness characteristics of the dyes. The residues R2 and R4 of general formula (I) mutually independently necessarily in each case denote a grouping of formula (II)

—(CH2)n—Y1-(CH2)m—Y2  (II)

wherein the formula (II) in each case includes two alkylene groups, the length of which is defined by the numbers n and m. The affinity of the dyes of formula (I) for keratin fibers can be still further increased by optimizing chain lengths. It has been found that intense colorings with good matting performance may in particular be obtained if n denotes the number 3. An advantageous effect on the intensity of the colorings is likewise obtained if m denotes the numbers 2 or 3.

A further particularly preferred embodiment is therefore an agent for coloring and/or matting keratinic fibers which is characterized in that it includes at least one compound of formula (I), in which R2 and R4 mutually independently denote a grouping of formula (II), in which n in each case denotes the number 3.
Symmetrical compounds of formula (I) are most readily synthetically obtainable. Symmetrical compounds of formula (I), in which the residues R1 and R3 and the residues R2 and R4 represent identical substituents are thus preferred. More preferred compounds of formula (I) in this connection are those in which the residues R1 and R3 in each case denote a hydrogen atom and the residues R2 and R4 represent identical substituents.
A particularly preferred embodiment is furthermore an agent for coloring and/or matting keratinic fibers which is characterized in that it includes at least one compound of formula (I), in which R1 and R3 in each case denote a hydrogen atom, R2 and R4 denote identical residues and R2 and R4 in each case denote a grouping of formula (II),

—(CH2)n-Y1-(CH2)m-Y2  (II)

    Y1 denotes an oxygen atom (—O—) or a group —NR5-,
    Y2 denotes a hydrogen atom, a hydroxyl group, a C1-C6 alkoxy group or a group —NR5R6,
    n denotes the number 3,
    m denotes the numbers 2 or 3, and
    R5, R6 mutually independently denote a hydrogen atom or a C1-C6 alkyl group.


A further preferred embodiment are agents for coloring and/or matting keratinic fibers which are characterized in that they include at least one compound of the general formula (I) which is selected from

Coloring processes on keratin fibers conventionally proceed in an alkaline environment. Establishing an excessively high pH value is, however, not desirable if the keratin fibers and also the skin are to be treated as gently as possible. It is therefore preferred for the pH value of the ready-to-use agent to be between 7 and 11, in particular between 8 and 10.5. The pH values for the purposes of the present invention are pH values which were measured at a temperature of 22° C.

The additional active ingredients and auxiliaries are preferably used in the agents according to the invention in quantities of in each case 0.0001 to 25 wt. %, in particular of 0.0005 to 15 wt. %, relative to the total weight of the mixture for use.
The agents according to the invention are outstandingly suitable for producing intense blue shades, in particular for producing intense blue to gray shades, on keratinic fibers. In conjunction with their good fastness characteristics and good stability towards oxidizing agents such as hydrogen peroxide, they are therefore highly suitable for matting keratin fibers.
The present invention accordingly further provides the cosmetic use of an agent of the first subject matter of the invention for producing intense blue shades on keratin fibers and/or for matting keratin fibers during or after oxidative lightening.
The agents of the first subject matter of the invention may be used in methods for matting human hair. In a first embodiment of the method, the dyes of formula (I) according to the invention are applied after the blonding operation onto the keratin fibers in the form of a post-treatment agent, wherein the post-treatment agent may be a shampoo, a gel, a conditioner, a cream, a foaming solution, a mousse or an aerosol with the conventional previously described further ingredients. The period between the blonding or bleaching operation and use of the post-treatment agent may amount to some days to weeks. Preferably, however, the blonding operation and the matting proceed within the same day, in particular within a few hours. In one more preferred embodiment, post-treatment is carried out directly subsequent to the blonding operation.
The blonding agents are conventionally two-component products in which a component (A1) including oxidizing agent is mixed shortly before use with an (alkalizing) agent (A2) and this ready-to-use mixture is applied onto the hair.
The invention thus comprises a first method for matting human hair in which, directly before use,

    
    
        a cosmetic agent (A1) for oxidative lightening including 0.5 to 20 wt. % hydrogen peroxide is mixed with
        an agent (A2),
        this ready-to-use agent is applied onto the keratin fibers, left on the keratin fibers for a period of 5 to 60 minutes, preferably of 15 to 45 minutes, and then rinsed back out,
        the keratin fibers are optionally dried, and
        then a post-treatment agent (B) is applied onto the keratin fibers, left on the keratin fibers for a period of 2 to 45 minutes, preferably of 5 to 30 minutes, and then rinsed back out,

wherein the agent (B) is an agent of the first subject matter of the invention.

    
    


In a further embodiment, the blonding or bleaching of the hair and matting operation may proceed in one step, such that the matting agent is applied together with the oxidative lightening agent onto the keratin fibers.
In this case, the blonding agent is preferably a two-component product in which a component (A1) including oxidizing agent is mixed shortly before use with an (alkalizing) agent (A2), wherein the agent (A2) additionally includes a compound of formula (I) according to the invention.
A second method according to the invention is thus one in which, directly before use,

    
    
        a cosmetic agent (A1) for oxidative lightening including 0.5 to 20 wt. % hydrogen peroxide is mixed with
        an agent (A2),
        this ready-to-use agent is applied onto the keratin fibers, left on the keratin fibers for a period of 5 to 60 minutes, preferably of 15 to 45 minutes, and then rinsed back out, and
        then a post-treatment agent (B) is applied onto the keratin fibers, left on the keratin fibers for a period of 2 to 45 minutes, preferably of 5 to 30 minutes, and then rinsed back out,

wherein the agent (A2) is an agent of the first subject matter of the invention.

    
    


In order to boost the matting action, it is likewise conceivable for the dyes of formula (I) according to the invention to be used on the keratinic fibers not only during the blonding operation together with the oxidizing agent but also in the form of a post-treatment agent. The present invention accordingly further provides a method for matting keratinic fibers in which, directly before use,

    
    
        a cosmetic agent (A1) for oxidative lightening including 0.5 to 20 wt. % hydrogen peroxide is mixed with
        an agent (A2),
        this ready-to-use agent is applied onto the keratin fibers, left on the keratin fibers for a period of 5 to 60 minutes, preferably of 15 to 45 minutes, and then rinsed back out, and
        then a post-treatment agent (B) is applied onto the keratin fibers, left on the keratin fibers for a period of 2 to 45 minutes, preferably of 5 to 30 minutes, and then rinsed back out,

wherein the agent (A2) and/or the agent (B) is an agent of the first subject matter of the invention.

    
    


During the period of exposure of the fiber to the agent it may be advantageous to assist the lightening process or matting process by supplying heat. Heat may be supplied by an external heat source, such as for example hot air from a hot air blower, and also, in particular when lightening the hair of a living test subject, by the body temperature of the test subject. In the case of the latter possibility, the treated part is conventionally covered with a cap. Exposure at room temperature is likewise according to the invention. In particular, the temperature during the period of exposure is between 20° C. and 40° C., in particular between 25° C. and 38° C. After the end of the period of exposure, the remaining coloring preparation is rinsed out of the hair with water or a cleaning agent. Conventional commercial shampoo may in particular be used here as the cleaning agent, wherein it is in particular possible to dispense with the cleaning agent and carry out the rinsing operation with water if the lightening agent has a carrier with a high surfactant content. The agents according to the invention may be formulated and correspondingly used as a single component agent (matting and lightening agent) or as a multicomponent agent such as a two-component agent or three-component agent. Separation into multicomponent systems may in particular be considered where incompatibilities of the ingredients are to be expected or feared; in such systems, the agent for use is produced by the consumer directly before application by mixing the components.
The above statements regarding the agents according to the invention apply mutatis mutandis with regard to further preferred embodiments of the use and methods according to the invention.
