Description: FRAGRANCE RAW MATERIALS ALDEHYDES AND PRO-FRAGRANCES HAVING A TERTIARY ALPHA CARBON ATOM FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to novel fragrance pro-accords which release fragrance raw material aldehydes suitable for use in perfume and fine fragrance compositions thereby providing said compositions with enduπng fragrance characteπstics. The present invention further relates to a fragrance delivery system which compπses the novel fragrance pro-accords of the present invention m combination with a) one or more pro-accords ter aha acetals, ketals, orthoesters, orthocarbonates, and b) one or more fragrance raw mateπals. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Humans have applied scents and fragrances to their skin since antiquity. Oπgmally these aesthetically pleasing mateπals were commonly isolated m raw form as resms, gums or essential oils from natural sources, inter alia, the bark, roots, leaves and fruit of indigenous plants. These resins, gums, and oils were directly applied to the body or diluted with water or other solvent, including m some cases, wme. With the advent of modern chemistry, individual components responsible for the odor properties of these resins, gums and oils were isolated and subsequently characterized. Aside from common "perfume vehicles" inter aha, fine perfumes, colognes, eau de toilettes, and after-shave lotions, a wide vaπety of personal care or personal hygiene items also deliver for aesthetic reasons fragrance notes, accords, or fragrance "characteristics". It is well known that mixtures of perfume or fragrance raw materials when deposited on the skin lose intensity and may change character with time, mainly due to factors such as differential evaporation and skin penetration. Many attempts have been made to minimize these drawbacks, but so far without notable success. Particularly, efforts have been made to prolong the diffusion, as well as to improve other characteπstics of fragrance materials, by e.g. increasing the fragrance raw material concentration or by using additives such as silicones, glycerol, polyethylene glycols and so on. Such additions, however, have never been adequate to increase the longevity of the fragrance odor In addition to alcohols, ketones, and esters, aldehydes form the most commonly delivered fragrance raw mateπals. Alcohols and esters can be suitably released m a delayed manner from an orthoester pro-accord or pro-fragrance. The controllable release of these fragrance raw materials thus provides the formulator with a means for delivering these fragrance ingredients, not only as an accord, but m a delayed-releasable manner over a period of time fragrance which is desirable to the fine fragrance and perfume user. However, the primary means for delivering aldehydes in a time-releasable manner has typically been via the acetal pro-fragrance. Notwithstanding the fact that these materials are capable of delivering the required aldehyde under the proper acidic conditions, in the past, because there was no means of adjusting the release profiles of pro-fragrances, these compounds have not provided the formulator with a highly controllable method for sustained and predictable delivery of aldehydes and ketones. In addition, there is a need for novel aldehyde fragrance raw materials which have the ability to provide subtle changes to a parent "fragrance" or which will provide a heretofore unknown characteristic to a perfume accord. Accordingly, there remains a need m the art for novel fragrance or perfume raw mateπals. In addition, there is a corresponding need for a means of delivering said novel fragrance raw mateπals via a pro-accord. These pro-accords and the released fragrance raw materials are components of a fragrance delivery system which can be formulated into fine fragrances, perfumes, personal care and personal hygiene products. Once formulated therein, the aldehyde fragrance raw material component can be released m a highly controllable manner to provide and additional enhanced fragrance longevity benefit.

Aldehyde Pro-fragrances The present invention further relates to pro-fragrances which release the aldehydes of the present invention. The pro-fragrances are suitable for use in the fragrance delivery system which is further described herein below. Key to the aldehyde releasing pro-fragrances of the present invention is the ability of the formulator to prepare a compound pro-fragrance which has a specific release rate of aldehyde fragrance raw material. The formulator may design pro- fragrances to release at any rate which the formulator finds useful to the consumer. In addition, by determining the Fragrance Release Half-life of each particular pro-fragrance, the formulator is able to make a side by side comparison of structurally dissimilar molecules and evaluate their relative fragrance raw material release patterns. In this way not only can the formulator determine with minimal experimentation whether a compound is suitable for use as a pro- fragrance, but also determine the release profile of the molecule. Therefore, a slight structural modification can result m a more finely tuned fragrance delivery system.

Fragrance Release Half-life One aspect of the present invention which is a key element in providing the formulator with a method for determining the manner in which a pro-fragrance according to the present invention releases its fragrance raw material, is the measurement of the pro-fragrance "Fragrance Release Half-Life, (FRHL). The pro-fragrances useful in the personal care compositions of the present invention generally have a delayed release of final fragrance raw material in order to achieve the increased fragrance longevity benefits described herein. However, the pro-fragrances generally also deliver the fragrance raw materials duπng a time period useful to the formulator, for example, within a time period desirable to the consumer. For the purposes of the present invention the pro-accords generally have a FRHL of less than or equal to 12 hours when measured in NaH2P04 buffer at pH 2.5 and greater than or equal to 0J hour when measured in NaH2PO4 buffer at pH 5.3. The "Fragrance Release Half-life" is defined herein as follows. Pro-fragrances deliver their corresponding mixture of fragrance raw materials or fragrance accords according to the equation: Pro-Fragrance > ■ Fragrance Raw Material wherein the fragrance raw material which is released may be released as a single component or a multiple fragrance raw material accord The rate at which the fragrance is released is defined by the formula: Rate = k[Pro-fragrance] and can be further expressed by the formula- d [Pro-fragrance] - k [Pro-fragrancej at wherein k is the release rate constant and [Pro-fragrance] is the concentration of pro-fragrance. For the purposes of the present invention the "Fragrance Release Half-life", t 2 » iS related to the release rate constant by the formula. 0.693 tl/2 - k and this relationship is used for the purposes of the present invention to determine the " FRHL. Due to the hydrophobic nature of some pro-accords, it is necessary to conduct the determination of tj/2 ar *d k in a mixture of 90/10 dioxane/phosphate buffered water. The phosphate buffered water is prepared by admixing 3.95 mL of 85% phosphoric acid (H3PO4) and 24 g of sodium dihydrogen phosphate (NaH2PU4) with one liter of water. The pH of this solution is approximately 2.5. Next 10 mL of the phosphate buffer is admixed with 90 mL of dioxane and the pro-fragrance to be analyzed is added. The hydrolysis kinetics are then monitored by conventional HPLC at 30° C. In some instances, it is desirable to formulate a fragrance delivery system having one or more pro-fragrances which deliver a rapid release of fragrance raw mateπal in addition to the delayed onset of a fragrance. In such cases the hydrolysis rate, and therefore the determination of t j 2 must be measured in a buffer system which can accommodate this more rapid hydrolysis rate. The pro-fragrances of the present invention are stable under pH conditions encountered in the formulation and storage of fine perfume, personal care and personal hygiene articles which have a pH of from about 7J to 11.5, and during solution-use of such products. Due to their high molecular weight and hydrophobicity, these pro-fragrances and/or pro-accords remain deposited upon skm even when exposed to water (i.e. when formulated into a sun screen). Because the pro- fragrances are subject to hydrolysis when the pH is reduced, they hydrolyze to release their component fragrance compounds when applied to skm or are exposed even to reduced pH such as present in air and humidity The reduction in pH should be at least 0 1 , preferably at least about 0.5 units. Preferably the pH is reduced by at least 0.5 units to a pH of 7.5 or less, more preferably 6.9 or less. Preferably, the solution m which the pro-accord is applied is alkaline Odor Value The pro-fragrances of the present invention typically have an Odor Value greater than or equal to about 1, preferably greater than or equal to about 5, more preferably greater than or equal to about 10. The term "Odor Value" is defined by the following formula [Concentration of FRM] Ov = - ODT wherein OV is the odor value of the fragrance raw material released upon the skm by the pro- accord. The odor value is the concentration of the fragrance raw material, FRM, on the skm surface divided by the Odor Detection Threshold, ODT. The term "level of noticeability" is often applied to and/or substituted for the term "odor value" Odor Detection Threshold For the purposes of the present invention the term "odor detection threshold" is defined as the level at which a fragrance raw material is perceptible to the average human. The odor detection threshold (ODT) of the compositions of the present invention are preferably measured by carefully controlled gas chromatograph (GC) conditions as described herembelow. The preferred fragrance raw materials of the present invention have an ODT of at least about 100 part per billion (ppb), more preferably 10 ppb, most preferably 1 ppb. Fragrance raw mateπals having an ODT greater than 10 parts per million (ppm) are typically avoided unless useful as an adjunct ingredient, for example, as an adjunct alcohol when adjusting the fragrance release half-life of an orthoester. Determination of Odor Detection Thresholds is as follows. A gas chromatograph is characterized to determine the exact volume of material injected by a syringe, the precise split ratio, and the hydrocarbon response using a hydrocarbon standard of known concentration and chain-length distribution. The air flow rate m accurately measured and, assuming the duration of a human inhalation to last 0.02 minutes, the sampled volume is calculated. Since the precise concentration at the detector at any point in time is known, the mass per volume inhaled is known and hence the concentration of material. To determine whether a material has a threshold below 10 ppb, solutions are delivered to the sniff port at the back-calculated concentration. A panelist sniffs the GC effluent and identifies the retention time when odor is notice. The average over all panelists determines the threshold of noticeability or ODT. The necessary amount of analyte is injected onto the column to achieve a 10 ppb concentration at the detector. Typical gas chromatograph parameters for determining odor detection thresholds are listed below GC: 5890 Series II with FID detector 7673 Autosampler Column J&W Scientific DB-1, length 30 m, l.d 0.25 mm, film thickness 1 μm. Split Injection: 17/1 split ratio Autosampler. 1J3 μl/mjection Column flow: 1 J 0 mL/min Air flow: 345 mL/mm Inlet temperature: 245° C Detector temperature: 285° C Temperature Information - Initial temperature: 50° C Rate: 5° C/mm Final temperature: 280° C Final time: 6 mm Leading assumptions: 0.02 minutes per sniff and that GC air adds to sample dilution. Skm Performance Index Although a pro-fragrance or pro-accord may comprise a fragrance release half-life which ensures delivery of a fragrance raw material during a period of time useful to the formulator, unless the fragrance raw materials which compπse said fragrance delivery system have ODT values large enough to be perceived by the user, the formulator will be compelled to use an inordinate amount of material to achieve a suitable fragrance level. The pro-fragrances of the present invention have a Skm Performance Index (SPI) greater than or equal to 0J, preferably greater than or equal to 0.5. The Skm Performance Index is defined by the following: [Odor Value] * SPI = wherein the term [Odor Value]* is the estimated concentration of the fragrance raw material in the headspace above a solution of the fragrance raw material as measured in a 1 % solution of ethanol, and t 1/2 is the fragrance release half-life measured at pH 5.3 m the above described buffer. For the purposes of the present invention, the t, , of the SPI is measured at 5.3 and the value of the fragrance release half-life is preferably from 0J hours to 60 hours. The [Odor Value]* is an estimation of the vapor pressure of the fragrance raw material using empirically determined KOVATS indices. "The Vapor Pressures of Pure Substances", T. Boubhk et al., Elseiver, New York (1973) incorporated herein by reference, describes an index line for normal alkanes wherein C 10 is equal to 30,000 ppb, C 12 is equal to 3,000 ppb, C 14 is equal to 300 ppb, C 16 is equal to 30 ppb, etc. Using these values as reference standards, the KOVATS index of a fragrance raw material is obtained from gas chromatographic analysis of the FRM and the experimental index is then used to determine the relative vapor pressure and hence the head space concentration of the fragrance raw mateπal. "New Method for Estimating Vapor Pressure by the Use of Gas Chromatography" J. Chromatography A, 79 p 123-129, (1996) and "Simple and Versatile Injection System for Capillary Gas Chromatographic Columns: Performance Evaluation of a System Including Mass Spectrometπc and Light Pipe Fourier-Transform Infrared Detection", J Chromatography J, 713, p 201 -215 , ( 1996) included herein by reference, further describe methods and techniques suitable for use in determining the vapor pressure and head space concentration of FRM's as they relate to the term [Odor Value]* of the present invention. Using the criteria set forth in the present invention inter aha fragrance release half-life, odor value, odor detection threshold, skm performance index, the formulator is able to fashion an aldehyde or ketone releasing cyclic pro-fragrance. By manipulation of the R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , R 5 and R 6 units of the cyclic pro-fragrances of the present invention, the release rate of either an aldehyde or ketone fragrance raw material can be adjusted. Several different pro-fragrances which release the same fragrance raw material, but at differing rates or levels, can be admixed to further prolong or extend the period of fragrance raw material delivery. The following is a non-limiting example of a b-amino ketone pro-fragrance according to the present invention. EXAMPLE 1 Oxazohdine of α-methyl melonal and DL-seπne methyl ester 1. Synthesis of α-methyl melonal To a solution of KH (1.2 mol) m anhydrous THF is added methyl iodide (1.2 mole). The solution is cooled to 0 °C and melonal (0J2 mole) dissolved in anhydrous THF is added over 40 minutes. Once the addition is complete, the solution is allowed to react for an additional 30 minutes. The reaction is quenched by the addition of water and the product isolated by extraction with diethyl ether. The oil which results after removal of the solvent is further purified by vacuum distillation. 2. Oxazohdine formation Racemic seπne methyl ester hydrochloπde (1.0 mol) is neutralized by the addition of sodium methoxide (1J mol) as a 25% solution in MeOH. After stirring about 15 minutes, anhydrous Na 2 S0 4 (2 mol) is added followed by α-methyl melonal (1 mole). The solution is stirred for 24 hr, filtered through a bed of Celite 545 and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue is taken up in toluene, washed thrice with sodium bicarbonate and concentrated. The resulting oil is stirred 24 hr under a vacuum of 0.2mm Hg to yield the desired product.
