Description: PRIMARY INTERMEDIATES FOR OXIDATIVE COLORATION OF HAIR Field of the Invention This invention relates to new quatemized pyrrolidine compounds and compositions containing these compounds as primary intermediates for oxidative coloring of hair fibers. 0 Background to the Invention Coloration of hair is a procedure practiced from antiquity employing a variety of means, in modern times, the method most extensively to color hair is an oxidative dyeing process utilizing one or more oxidative hair coloring agents in 5 combination with one or more oxidizing agents. Most commonly a peroxy oxidizing agent is used in combination with one or more oxidative hair coloring agents, generally small molecules capable of diffusing into hair and comprising one or more primary intermediates and one or 0 more couplers. In this procedure, a peroxide material, such as hydrogen peroxide, is employed to activate the small molecules of primary intermediates so that they react with couplers to form larger sized compounds in the hair shaft to color the hair in a variety of shades and colors-. .5 A wide variety of primary intermediates and couplers have been employed in such oxidative hair coloring systems and compositions. Among the primary intermediates employed there may be mentioned p-phenylenediamine, p- toluenediamine, p-aminophenol, 4-amino-3-methylphenol, N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)-p- phenylene diamine, 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-4,5-diaminopyrazole and as couplers there >0 may be mentioned resorcinol, 2-methylresorcinol, 3-aminophenol, 2,4- diaminophenoxyethanol, and 5-amino-2-methyIphenol. There are numerous additional requirements for oxidation dye compounds that are used to dye human hair besides the color or the desired intensity. Thus, the dye compounds must be unobjectionable in regard to toxicological and dermatological properties and must provide the desired hair color with a good light fastness, fastness to a permanent wave treatment, acid fastness and fastness to rubbing. The color of the hair dyed with the dye compounds in each case must be stable for at least 4 to 6 weeks to light, rubbing and chemical agents. Furthermore, an additional requirement is the production of a broad palette of different color shades using different developer and coupler substances. A majority of the desired shades have been produced with dyes based on p-phenylenediamine. However, use of p-phenylenediamine is being questioned, mainly due to a sensitization potential. GB 2,239,265A describes that some individuals are becoming sensitized to p-phenylenediamine and its derivatives. The proposed replacements for p-phenylenediamine have not proved entirely satisfactory. There is therefore a need for new primary intermediate compounds to meet one or more of the desired properties but not possessing the sensitization potential possessed by p- phenylenediamine, that is, which has a significantly weaker sensitization potential than p-phenylenediamine. Summary of the Invention It is therefore an object of this invention to provide new primary intermediate compounds useful in place of p-phenylenediamine to provide a wide range of different color shades with various combinations of primary intermediates and couplers, but which has a weaker sensitization potential than p- phenylenediamine. It has been discovered that new quatemized pyrrolidine compounds are suitable primary intermediates for hair coloring compositions and systems for providing good oxidative coloration of hair and for providing acceptable light fastness, fastness to shampooing, fastness to permanent wave treatment, and suitable for providing a wide variety of different color shades with various primary intermediate and coupler compounds, but which presents a significantly weaker sensitization potential than p-phenylenediamine. The invention provides new quatemized pyrrolidine compounds of Formula (1): wherein X is CI, Br, I, or R 3 S0 4 ; R is a Ci to C 22 alkyl group or a C-j to C 22 mono or dihydroxyalkyl group; R 1 and R 2 are each independently a Ci to C 4 alkyl group; R 3 is a a Ci to C 22 alkyl group or a Ci to C 22 mono or dihydroxyalkyl group; R 4 is a hydrogen atom, a Ci to C 5 alkyl group or such an alkyl group substituted with one or more hydroxy or amino moieties; and R 5 is a hydrogen atom or a hydroxy group. Detailed Description of the Invention The new quatemized pyrrolidine compounds of this invention can be prepared by the reaction of a suitable N-(4-nitrophenyl)-3-amino pyrrolidine with a quaternization reagent (R-X) in a suitable solvent such as dimethylformamide (DMF) to produce a quatemized salt which can be precipitated out with diethyl ether, followed by hydrogenation of the salt with hydrogen in anhydrous methanol and a suitable hydrogenation catalyst according to the following reaction sequence where R, R 1 ,R 2 ,R 3 ,R 4 , R 5 and X are as defined hereinbefore.

To this is added the desired quaternization reagent B of the formula R-X. The reaction mixture is stirred at 60°C for about 18 hrs. and cooled to room temperature. Diethyl ether (25 ml_) is added to precipitate out the salt C. Salt C is hydrogenated at 60 psi in anhydrous methanol in the presence of 10% Pd/C catalyst at room temperature for 18 hrs. The reaction is then filtered through a pad of Celite and evaporated in vacuo to provide the compounds of Formula (1) of this invention The quatemized pyrrolidine compounds of this invention can be employed in dye compositions and systems of this invention in an amount of from about 0.005 to about 20, preferably from about 0.01 to about 5.0, and most preferably from about 0.1 to about 2.5 weight percent based on the weight of the hair coloring composition.

The reaction mixture was stirred at 60°C for 18 hrs and cooled to room temperature. Diethyl ether was added and the resulting precipitate was filtered and washed with ether three times to give 1-(4-nitrophenyl)-N,N,N-trimethylpyrrolidin-3- aminium iodide (894 mg, 92 % yield): 1 HNMR (400MHz, DMSO-d 6 )δ 2.50 (m, 2H), 3.15 (s, 9H), 3.43 (m, 1 H), 3.71 (m, 2H), 3.87 (m, 1 H), 4.37 (m, 1 H), 6.74 (d, 2H, J - 5 9 Hz), 8.12(d, 2H, J = 9Hz). This compound was hydrogenated at 60 psi in menthol in the presence of 10% Pd/C at room temperature for about 18 hrs. The reaction mixture was filtered through a pad of Celite and washed with methanol. The filtrate was evaporated in vacuo to produce 1-(4-aminophenyl)-N,N,N-trimethylpyrroIidin-3- aminium iodide (505 mg, 95 % yield): 1 HNMR (400MHz, DMSO-d 6 ) δ 2.32 (m, 2H), :0 2.94 (m, 1 H), 3.09 (s, 9H), 3.17 (m, 2H), 3.71 (m, 2H), 4.25 (m, 1H), 4.66 (bs, 2H), 6.52 (s, 4H): MS m/z = 219. This is Compound 1 of Table 1. Examples 2 to 15 With the substitution of the appropriate R-X reactant for methyl iodide 5 in the synthesis procedure of Example 1 Compounds 2 to 15 of Table 1 were prepared. Table 1 Dyeing Tests Examples 16 to 45 Hair Coloring Compositions and Hair Dyeing Therewith Hair coloring compositions 16 to 45 of this invention were prepared and tested employing the quatemized pyrrolidine primary intermediate compounds of Examples 1 to 15 as listed in Table 1 , and the coupler compounds as indicated in Tables 2 and 3. Piedmont hair weighing from 700 to 900 mg was used. A solution of the primary intermediate compound and each coupler was prepared separately according to the following procedure. The concentration of the primary intermediate and the coupler was 0.025 M in a base consisting of cocamidopropyl betaine 17 g, monoethanol amine 2 g, oleic acid 0.75 g, citric acid 0.1g, ammonium hydroxide (28%) 5 g, behenthmonium chloride 0.5g and water to 100 g. A solution of 0.5 mL primary intermediate and 0.5 mL coupler was mixed with 20 volumes hydrogen peroxide (1 mL). The mixture was applied to Piedment hair tresses mounted on a glass plate and then stored at 40°C for 30 minutes, washed, shampooed, and dried. Color was evaluated using the Minolta Spectrophotometer CM-3700d The Minolta 3700d spectrophotometer uses reflected light from a surface and gives results in terms of the CIE (International Commission on Illumination) tristimulus values. These values are subsequently transformed mathematically into the L * a* b * color space, wherein the magnitude of changes in hue and intensity of color correspond closely with those perceived by the human eye. L * , being achromatic, ranges from black (L*=0) to white (L*=100); this term is called "metric lightness" and is a measure of how light or dark a color is, relative to a matching shade of gray. Hue is measured in terms of the chromaticity coordinates a* and b * , where a * indicates redness (a*>0) and b* indicates yellowness (b * >0). The values of a * and b* can be plotted with a* as the x-axis and b* as the y-axis to give quantitative color information: "metric chroma" is the length of a line from the origin (a*=0, b * =0) to the point of a sample reading while metric hue angle is the angle between the a* axis and the metric chroma line. Metric chroma indicates the strength of a color response (i.e., the extent to which a color differs from its matching shade of gray). Metric hue angle quantifies hue in degrees, with larger values indicating more yellow hues and smaller values indicating more red (or less yellow) hues. The results of the tests are set forth in the following Tables 2 and 3. The baseline average values of L*, a* and b* for undyed, untreated Piedmont hair were L * 72.32, a * 2.0, b * 23.2. Synthesis Examples 46 and 47 Employing the procedure as set forth in Example 1 , but employing the appropriate amount of methyl chloride or methyl sulfate reactant in place of methyl iodide, there is prepared [1-(4-aminophenyl)-pyrrolidin-yl]-trimethyl ammonium chloride or [1-(4-aminophenyl)-pyrrolidin-yl]-trimethyl ammoniun sulfate. The compounds of this invention show substantially less sensitization potential than non-quaternized compounds and p-phenylenediamine. For example, the compound of Example 1 and the [1-(4-aminophenyl)-pyrrolidin-yI]-trimethyl ammoniun sulfate compound of Example 47 showed substantially less sensitization (allergy) potential in the Local Lymph Node Assay. The assay is described in Contact Dermatitis 42(6), 344-348, June 2000.
