## Background
This application claims benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/737,462, filed Nov. 17, 2005, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. This application also claims benefit of priority under 35 U.S.C. § 119 to French Patent Application No. FR 05 53403, filed Nov. 9, 2005, the contents of which are also incorporated herein by reference.


The present disclosure relates to a composition for the dyeing of keratin fibers, for example, human keratin fibers such as the hair, comprising at least one 3-aminopyrazolo-[1,5-a]-pyridine derivative and/or addition salts thereof and a method employing this composition. It also relates to 3-aminopyrazolo-[1,5-a]-pyridine derivatives and addition salts thereof.
The dyeing of keratin fibers, for example, human keratin fibers such as the hair, with dyeing compositions comprising oxidation dye precursors, including ortho- or para-phenylenediamines, ortho- or para-aminophenols, and heterocyclic compounds generally called oxidation bases, is known. Oxidation dye precursors, or oxidation bases, are compounds that are colorless or slightly colored, which, when combined with oxidizing products, can give rise to colored or coloring compounds by a process of oxidative condensation.
It is also known that the shades obtained with these oxidation bases can be varied by combining them with couplers or dyeing modifiers, the latter being chosen, for example, from the meta-phenylenediamines, the meta-aminophenols, the meta-hydroxyphenols and certain heterocyclic compounds such as, for example, derivatives of pyrazolo[1,5-b]-1,2,4-triazoles, derivatives of pyrazolo[3,2-c]-1,2,4-triazoles, derivatives of pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines, derivatives of pyridine, derivatives of pyrazol-5-one, derivatives of indoline and derivatives of indole.
The variety of molecules employed in the oxidation bases and couplers means that a rich palette of colors can be obtained.
The so-called “permanent” dyeing obtained with these oxidation dyes ideally, moreover, has at least one of the following advantages: the dyes do not pose any problems in toxicological terms, make it possible to obtain shades of desired intensity, provide good resistance to external factors such as the light, weather, washing, permanent waving, sweating and rubbing, provide coverage of white hair, and/or finally they have the least possible selectivity, i.e., ensuring the slightest possible differences in coloration all the way along one and the same keratin fiber, which may in fact have different sensitivity (i.e. extent of damage) between its tip and its root. The dyes also ideally display good chemical stability in the formulations and have a good toxicological profile.
The use of oxidation bases such as the derivatives of para-phenylenediamine and para-aminophenol may make it possible to obtain quite a wide range of colors at basic pH, though without achieving shades with good chromaticity, while endowing the hair with at least one excellent property chosen from color intensity, variety of shades, uniformity of color and/or resistance to external factors.
However, the use of these bases at neutral pH is may be ineffective for achieving a range of varied shades, for example, for warm shades.
European Patent Application EP 1 233 743 has already proposed dye compositions containing 3-amino-pyrazolo-[1,5-a]-pyridines as the oxidation base. However, the dye compositions described in that document may not always make it possible to achieve good properties of chromaticity and/or resistance to external factors such as washing and the light. Moreover, the range of shades may be of a limited extent.
Thus, it would be desirable to supply novel oxidation bases for the dyeing of keratin fibers which overcome at least one of the drawbacks of the existing oxidation bases. For instance, it would be desirable to supply novel oxidation bases which make it possible to obtain dyeing in a variety of shades that is powerful, chromatic, aesthetic, of low selectivity, and/or has good resistance to the various aggressive factors to which the hair may be subjected, such as shampoos, light, sweat and permanent shaping.
The present disclosure, therefore, relates, in at least one embodiment, to dyeing compounds and compositions which make it possible to obtain dyeing having at least one of the above-discussed advantageous properties. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to a composition for dyeing keratin fibers comprising, in a medium that is suitable for dyeing, at least one oxidation dyeing base chosen from 3-aminopyrazolo-[1,5-a]-pyridine derivatives of the following formula (I) and salts and solvates thereof:

The dyeing composition according to the present disclosure can be in various forms, such as in the form of liquids, creams, gels, or in any other form that is suitable for carrying out dyeing of keratin fibers, such as human hair.
The method of the present disclosure is a method in which the composition according to the present disclosure as defined previously is applied to the fibers, and the color is developed by means of an oxidizing agent. The color can be developed at acid, neutral or alkaline pH and the oxidizing agent can be added to the composition right at the moment of use or it can be used on the basis of an oxidizing composition containing it, applied simultaneously with or sequentially to the composition of the disclosure.
According to at least one embodiment, the composition according to the present disclosure is mixed, for example at the moment of use, with a composition containing, in a medium suitable for dyeing, at least one oxidizing agent, said oxidizing agent being present in an amount sufficient for developing a coloration. The mixture obtained is then applied to the keratin fibers. After a waiting time of 3 to 50 minutes, such as from 5 to 30 minutes, the keratin fibers are rinsed, washed with shampoo, rinsed again and then dried.
The oxidizing agents conventionally used for the oxidation dyeing of keratin fibers are, for example, hydrogen peroxide, urea peroxide, alkali metal bromates, per-salts such as perborates and persulphates, peracids and the oxidase enzymes, such as peroxidases, 2-electron oxidoreductases such as uricases and 4-electron oxygenases such as laccases. In one embodiment, hydrogen peroxide is used.
The oxidizing composition can also comprise at least one additive used conventionally in compositions for dyeing the hair and as defined previously.
The pH of the oxidizing composition containing the oxidizing agent is such that after mixing with the dyeing composition, the pH of the resultant composition applied to the keratin fibers ranges, in at least one embodiment, from 3 to 12, such as from 5 to 11. It can be adjusted to the desired value by means of acidifying or alkalizing agents usually employed in the dyeing of keratin fibers and as defined previously.
The ready-to-use composition which is finally applied to the keratin fibers can be in various forms, such as in the form of liquids, creams, gels or in any other form suitable for carrying out dyeing of keratin fibers, such as human hair.
The present disclosure also relates to a dyeing “kit” with several compartments, in which a first compartment contains the dyeing composition of the present disclosure defined above and a second compartment contains an oxidizing composition. This kit can be equipped with a means for delivering the desired mixture onto the hair, such as the kits described in French Patent FR-2 586 913.
Using this kit, it is possible to dye keratin fibers by a method that comprises mixing a dyeing composition containing at least one oxidation base of formula (I) with an oxidizing agent, and applying the mixture obtained on the keratin fibers for a time that is sufficient to develop the desired coloration.
The present disclosure also relates to the use of a pyrazolopyridine derivative of formula (I) or of one of its addition salts as previously defined for the oxidation dyeing of keratin fibers, for example, of human keratin fibers such as the hair.
The compounds of formula (I) that can be used in the present disclosure can be obtained from intermediates and by synthetic routes described in the literature, such as in the following references: J. Het. Chem., 2001, 38(3), 613-616; Helvetica Chimica Acta, 1950, 33, 1183-1194; J. Org. Chem., 23, 2029 (1958); J. Am. Chem. Soc., 73, 3240 (1951); J. Am. Chem.

As an example, when R1 is an alkyl radical (C1-C10)—NR11R12 or an alkyl radical (C1-C10)—OR11, the following method of synthesis can be used:




Further details of these routes of synthesis are given in the examples described below.
The present disclosure also relates to the intermediates (A) and (B) as defined above in which at least one of the radicals R′2, R′3, R′4 or R′5 is different from a hydrogen atom apart from the compound for which R′2=Me when all the other substituents are hydrogen.
The present disclosure also relates to intermediates of formula (C), (D), (F), (H), (I) as defined above.
Other than in the examples, or where otherwise indicated, all numbers expressing quantities of ingredients, reaction conditions, and so forth used in the specification and claims are to be understood as being modified in all instances by the term “about.” Accordingly, unless indicated to the contrary, the numerical parameters set forth in the specification and attached claims are approximations that may vary depending upon the desired properties sought to be obtained by the present disclosure. At the very least, and not as an attempt to limit the application of the doctrine of equivalents to the scope of the claims, each numerical parameter should be construed in light of the number of significant digits and ordinary rounding approaches.
Notwithstanding that the numerical ranges and parameters setting forth the broad scope of the disclosure are approximations, unless otherwise indicated the numerical values set forth in the specific examples are reported as precisely as possible. Any numerical value, however, inherently contain certain errors necessarily resulting from the standard deviation found in their respective testing measurements.
By way of non-limiting illustration, concrete examples of certain embodiments of the present disclosure are given below. In the text hereinbelow, “A.M.” means Active Material.

At the moment of use, each composition was mixed with an equal weight of hydrogen peroxide solution at 20 volumes (6 wt. %). A final pH of 7, or 9.5, was obtained.
Each mixture obtained was applied to locks of grey hair at 90% white. After a waiting time of 30 minutes, the locks were rinsed, washed with a standard shampoo, rinsed again and then dried.
The results obtained are shown in the above tables.
