Description: The present invention relates to an alkyl-aryl 1,3-propanedione silicone derivative and an external preparation for the skin, and more particularly to an improvement of ultraviolet ray absorption capability in a UV-A region. From a view point of dermatology, ultraviolet ray in sunlight is divided into long wavelength ultraviolet rays (UV-A) in a range from 400 nm to 320 nm, medium wavelength ultraviolet rays (UV-B) in a range from 320 nm to 290 nm, and short wavelength ultraviolet rays (UV-C) in a range of 290 nm or less. Of these, the ultraviolet rays having a wavelength of 290 nm or less are absorbed by the ozone layer and do not reach the surface of the earth. Ultraviolet rays reaching the surface of the earth give various effects to the skin of a man. Of the ultraviolet rays which reach the surface of the earth, UV-B forms erythema or blisters on human skin and also promotes the formation of melanin. On the other hand, UV-A changes the color of human skin to brown and promotes rapid aging of human skin including decrease of elasticity thereof or generation of wrinkles on it. Also, UV-A promotes the start of the erythema reaction or activates this reaction in certain types of patients, and furthermore it may become a cause for light toxicity or allergy against light. To protect human skin from the harms of UV-A as described above, various types of ultraviolet ray absorbents have been developed. Conventional types of UV-A ultraviolet ray absorbents such as benzophenone derivatives, dibenzoyl methane derivatives, and benzotriazoles have been used as a UV-A absorbent and were compounded in external preparations for the skin. On the other hand, in recent years, such silicone-based bases as dimethyl siloxane having excellent water resisting property and which are not easily flown away by sweat or in swimming have been widely used in external preparations for skin in which a ultraviolet absorbent is compounded. These silicone-based bases have been used largely because, in addition to their excellent water resisting property, they can easily be extended on the human skin and are very comfortable and are not sticky when used. However, the conventional types of UV-A ultraviolet ray absorbent as described above have a remarkably low compatibility with silicone-based bases. Also, an absorbent is generally a crystalline material having a dark color, and is easily crystallized at low temperature, or often contaminates clothes, so that the quantity of absorbent to be used is limited to a very small level and the functions of the UV-A absorbent have not been fully realized. EP-A- 0 383 655 relates to cosmetic preparations containing diorganopolysiloxanes substituted with diaryl-1,3-propanedione residues which serve as UV filters. The present invention was made to solve the problems in the prior art as described above, and the object is to provide a substance which is dissolved in a silicone-based base and can block ultraviolet ray in the UV-A area and an external preparations for skin in which the substance is compounded. The inventors of the present invention made strenuous efforts to achieve the object as described above, and found out that alkyl-aryl 1,3 - propanedione silicone derivative has an excellent capability to absorb UV-A as well as an excellent availability, and completed the present invention. Namely, the alkyl-aryl 1,3 - propanedione silicone derivative is siloxane having at least one unit which is expressed by the general formula 1 as shown below; characterized in that other unit, which can exist in said siloxane, is expressed by a formula of 0 4-r/2 SiR 5 r . Formula 1 is defined as follows: wherein: R 1 is a hydroxyl group, or an alkyl group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, or an alkoxy group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, R 2 is an alkyl group having 1 to 7 carbon atoms, R 3 is a bivalent alkylene group or an oxyalkylene group having at least 2 carbon atoms, R 4 and R 5 are alkyl groups, phenyl groups, or trimethylsiloxy group, each having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, and m is an integer from 0 to 3, p is 0 or 1, and q and r are integers from 0 to 3. The external preparation for skin according to claim 2 is characterized in that said preparation contains one or more types of the aforesaid alkyl-aryl 1,3-propanedione silicone derivative. More detailed description is made hereinafter for constituents of the present invention. The alkyl-aryl 1,3-propanedione silicone derivative according to the present invention comprises a unit expressed by the formula 1 above and a formula of O 4-r/2 SiR 5 r . Examples of R 1 in the aforesaid general formula 1 include a hydroxyl group, an alkyl group such as a methyl group, an ethyl group, a propyl group, an isopropyl group, a butyl group, an isobutyl group, a sec-butyl group, a t-butyl group, an n-amyl group, an iso-amyl group, an n-hexyl group, a 2-ethylbutyl group, an n-octyl group, and a 2-ethylhexyl group, and an alkoxy group such as a methoxy group, an ethoxy group, a propoxy group, an isopropoxy group, a butoxy group, an isobutoxy group, an s-butoxy group, a t-butoxy group, an n-amyloxy group, an isoamyloxy group, an n-hexyloxy group, a 2-ethylbutoxy group, an n-pentyloxy group, an n-octyloxy group, and a 2-ethylhexyloxy group. Also, R 2 may be any alkyl group as far as it has 1 to 7 carbon atoms, but especially an alkyl group having carbon atom, bonding to a carboxyl group being secondary or tertiary atom, is preferable. Especially suited examples of R 2 include an isopropyl group, a tert-butyl group, an ethylpropyl group, or an ethylpentyl group. Examples of R 3 include -CH 2 CH 2 -, -CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 -, -CH 2 CH(CH 3 )CH 2 -, -CH(CH 3 )CH 2 CH 2 -, -CH 2 CH 2 CH(CH 3 )-, -CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 -, -CH 2 CH 2 OCH 2 CH 2 -, a hexylene group, a cyclohexylene group, or a decylene group, and an alkylene group having 2 to 4 carbon atoms is especially preferable. Examples of R 4 includes a methyl group, an ethyl group, a propyl group, an isopropyl group, a butyl group, an isobutyl group, a t-butyl group, a phenyl group, and a trimethylsiloxy group, but a methyl group or a unit, a portion of which is a phenyl group or a trimethylsiloxy group, is especially preferable because the raw materials can easily be procured. m expresses a number of substituents and is an integer from 0 to 3. p is 0 or 1, and q expresses a number of substituents in R 4 and is an integer from 0 to 3. In the siloxane unit expressed by the formula of O 4-r/2 SiR 5 r , examples of R 5 include a methyl group, an ethyl group, a propyl group, an isopropyl group, a butyl group, an isobutyl group, a t-butyl group, a phenyl group, and a trimethylsiloxy group, but a methyl group, or a unit, a portion of which is a phenyl group, or a trimethylsiloxy group is especially preferable. r expresses a number of substituents in R 5 and is an integer from 0 to 3. Form of the alkyl-aryl 1,3-propanedione silicone-based derivative according to the present invention is either a liquid or resin-like solid at room temperature, and either type can be used as a UV-A absorbent. The alkyl-aryl 1,3-propanedione silicone derivative according to the present invention can be synthesized in a two-stage reaction comprising a first stage of a Claisen condensation reaction and a second stage of hydrosilylating reaction. First stage or Second stage 3 ○ + Polysiloxane containing at least one Si-H group in the molecule -> General formula 1 It should be noted that, in the reaction formula above, R 1 ,R 2 ,m and p are defined by the general formula 1, A is an alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, B is an alkenyl group or an oxyalkenyl group having at least 2 carbon atoms. The Claisen condensation reaction in the first stage is described in R.Hauer etc., "Organic Reactions", Vo.8, p 59, John Wiley and Sons Inc., New York, 1954, and the method was employed in the present invention. Namely, the alkyl-aryl 1,3-propanedione derivative 3 ○ can be obtained by reacting methylalkyl ketone 1 ○ or substituted acetophenon 5 ○ to alkylester 2 ○ or 4 ○ of fatty acid or substituted benzoic acid under the existence of a base, namely under the existence of alkali alcoholate, hydride, amide compound, or hydrogenated sodium in a medium such as toluene, isopropylether, tetrahydrofuran, 1,2-dimethoxyethane, dimethylsulfoxide, or dimethylformamide at a temperature from room temperature up to a boiling point. The reaction in the second stage is a hydrosilylating reaction. It is known that this reaction is generally promoted by a platinum group metal, a compound of a platinum group metal, or a complex compound of said metal (Refer to Japanese Patent Laid Open Publication No.108431/1985, Japanese Patent Laid Open Publication No. 210632/1985, and Japanese Patent Laid Open Publication No. 50711/1989). Also, the reaction between the alkyl-aryl 1,3-propanedione derivative 3 ○ and polysiloxane containing at least one SiH group in the molecule is generally promoted by an ordinary catalyst such as platinum carried by carbon, acetylacetone platinum complex, platinum complex with unsaturated compound, platinum complex with unsaturated siloxane, rhodium compound and platinum compound complex. The target alkyl-aryl 1,3-propanedione silicone derivative can be obtained by continuing this reaction in a solvent such as toluene, xylene, hexane, tetradydrofuran, tetrachloroethylene at a temperature from room temperature up to the boiling point until SiH group disappears. It should be noted that anything is available as a base for the external preparations for skin according to the present invention so long as the aforesaid alkyl-aryl 1,3-propanedione silicone derivative is dissolved in the material, but especially when a base based on silicone-based oil is used, the external preparation for skin smoothly extends on human skin and is very comfortable and not sticky when used, and in addition high water resisting property and hardness to be flown away by sweat or water can be obtained. When a silicone-based base is used in the external preparations for skin according to the present invention, there is no restriction over the silicone-based base to be used, but generally such chain polysiloxane as dimethyl polysiloxane, methylpolysiloxane, methylhydrogen polysiloxane; such cyclic polysiloxane as decamethyl polysiloxane, dodecamethyl polysiloxane, tetramethyl hydrogen polysiloxane; polyether, fatty acid denatured polysiloxane, higher alcohol denatured polysiloxane, amino denatured polysiloxane can be used. Also it should be noted that other components generally used in cosmetic such as oil, lubricant, antioxidant, surface active agent, antiseptic, sequestering agent, perfume, water, alcohol, and thickener can be added in the external preparation for skin according to the present invention according to the necessity. There is no restriction over a form of the external preparation for skin according to the present invention, and it may be formed in any of powder, cream, paste, stick, liquid, spray, and foundation forms, and also may be emulsified by using emulsion. The alkyl-aryl 1,3-propanedione derivative according to the present invention can fully show it effects even if it is used independently, and also the material may be used together with other UV-B absorbent such as a p-amino benzoic acid derivative like Escalole 507® (produced by Van Dyk Corp.), a β-methoxy cinnamic acid derivative like Neo Heliopan® (produced by Haarmann & Reimer Gmbh.), a salicylic acid derivative, a benzylidene camphor derivative, urocanic acid or a derivative thereof, or inorganic pigment such as titanium dioxide or zinc oxide, and furthermore together other UV-A absorbent. A compounding ratio of the compound according to the present invention varies according to a form of the preparations as described above or a degree of required protection from ultraviolet ray, but generally the ratio is in a range from 0.1 to 20 weight %, and preferably in a range from 0.5 to 10 weight %.

From the result above, it can be understood that any of the compounds according to the present invention has excellent solubility to silicone-based base. Test for water resisting property The entire inside surface of a lower arm section of each of 10 male panels was carefully washed by using soap and then fully dried, and then 0.5 g of each sample liquid was applied to the entire inside surface of the lower section. Then, a 3cm 2 area of the section to which the sample liquid had been applied was extracted by using 20 ml of acetonitrile, and absorption of the liquid was measured with a spectrophotometer (The result: Light absorption degree A ). After extraction, operating mode of a washing machine (produced by Matsushita Denki NA-400) was set to strong vortex, and water, the temperature of which had been adjusted to 30 + 2°C, was continued to be released at a rate of 10 1 per minute. Then a lower arm section of a panel was steeped into water in the washing machine for 2 minutes, and then dried by a drier and extracted with acetonitrile as described above. The light absorption degree of this liquid is B . Evaluation of water resisting property was computed through the following equation and was shown with a rate of compound still remaining on the skin. Calculation of a rate of compound remaining on the skin Rate (%) = (Light absorption degree B/light absorption degree A) x 100 The silicone derivatives 1, 2 and 5 according to the present invention were selected as sample liquid and Escalol 507® as a compound for comparison, and 3 g of each material was dissolved in 97 g of Silicone KF 56®. The rate of each compound remaining on the skin is shown in Table 2.
