     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     This invention relates to new and useful ultraviolet radiation sunscreen agents and compositions and to methods of protecting the human skin against the potentially harmful effects of sunlight. 
     It is well documented that human skin is sensitive to sunlight containing radiation of wavelengths between about 290 nanometers (nm) and 400 nm as well as artificial light. Ultraviolet radiation of wavelengths between about 290 nm and 320 nm (UV-B region) has been known to rapidly produce damaging effects on the skin including reddening or erythema, edema, blistering or other skin eruptions in more severe cases. Prolonged or chronic exposure to radiation in this wavelength range has been associated with serious skin conditions such as actinic keratoses and carcinomas. In recent years concern has also been expressed regarding ultraviolet radiation of wavelengths above 320 nm (UV-A region) and the adverse effects of such radiation on human skin. 
     In view of the above, protection from the erythemal effects of sunlight produced by ultraviolet radiation within the UV-B region has been the traditional objective of sunscreen agents and compositions and as a result most compounds utilized as sunscreen agents have had light absorbance maxima within this UV-B region. Recently, as a result of growing concern for damage to the skin in the UV-A region, compounds capable of absorbing ultraviolet radiation in this region of the spectrum are becoming increasingly desirable but are generally unavailable. 
     Currently, the most widely utilized commercial sunscreen agents include para-amino benzoic acid derivatives, oxybenzones, methoxycinnamates and salicylates. 
     A desirable sunscreen agent should have absorbance maxima in the range of between 290 nm and 350 nm; have a molar absorptivity of greater than 10,000; be non-toxic, colorless and odorless; be heat and light stable; be water-insoluble and be easily and relatively inexpensively produced. While the readily available commercial sunscreen agents have enjoyed a measure of success, they all lack one or more of the above desirable properties. 
     OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION 
     It is an object of the present invention to provide improved sunscreen agents and compositions. 
     It is another object of the present invention to provide sunscreen compositions containing sunscreen agents that overcome the disadvantages of heretofore available materials and provide adequate and safe protection for human skin. 
     It is a further object of this invention to provide methods of protecting human skin against the harmful effects of sunlight. 
     These and other objects and features of the present invention will become readily apparent to one skilled in the art from the detailed description given hereinafter. 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     The foregoing objects and other features and advantages of the present invention are achieved by sunscreen compositions containing one or more vinylogous amides as the sunscreen agent. 
     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION 
     The sunscreen compositions of the present invention contain as an active sunscreen agent at least one vinylogous amide compound of the formula ##STR1## wherein R 1  is selected from alkyl, cycloalkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkenyl, aryl, substituted aryl or alkaryl of from 1 to 18 carbon atoms; 
     R 2  and R 3  may be the same or different and are selected from hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkyl or cycloalkenyl of from 1 to 18 carbon atoms; 
     R 4  and R 5  may be the same or different and are selected from hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl, aryl and substituted aryl, alkaryl, cycloalkyl or cycloalkenyl of from 1 to 18 carbon atoms; provided that at least one of R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , or R 5  is interrupted or substituted by N or O. When N is present it may be as a primary, secondary, or tertiary amine, quaternary ammonium salt, or amide. When O is present it may be as an alcohol, carboxylic acid or ester, or ether. R 2  together with R 1  and/or R 3  may form carbocyclic and/or heterocyclic rings, and R 4  together with R 5  may form heterocyclic rings. 
     The vinylogous amides useful in the present invention can be prepared by mixing equivalent amounts of a suitable amine with a suitable β-dicarbonyl compound. This may be done without solvent or with an appropriate amount of a solvent such as lower alcohols, toluene, water or the like. The reaction may require heating, usually at 50° C. to 80° C., for a period of time to complete the reaction. 
     The vinylogous amides described above include all cistrans positional isomers thereof. 
     Specific examples of vinylogous amides which are useful in the present invention include: ##STR2## 
     The vinylogous amides useful in the formulations of the present invention exhibit light absorbance maxima in either the UV-A or UV-B regions and thus depending on the choice of specific vinylogous amides one can formulate compositions which are effective sunscreens in either of these regions or by selecting a mixture of said vinylogous amides in both regions of the spectrum. It is also possible and may sometimes be desirable to combine the vinylogous amide sunscreen agents with conventional sunscreen agents to form effective sunscreen compositions. Such conventional sunscreen agents include Padimate O (2-ethylhexyl-p-dimethylaminobenzoate), oxybenzone, salicylates and the like. 
     The sunscreen compositions of the present invention contain the sunscreen agent or combination of sunscreen agents and a pharmaceutically extending medium such as a carrier or vehicle which adapts said agents for application to the skin. These compositions can be in either solid, liquid or aerosol form. The sunscreen agents of the present invention can also be incorporated into various cosmetic and personal care products such as hand and body lotions, oils, ointments, lip balm products, facial cosmetics and the like. 
     The amount of sunscreen agent present in the sunscreen compositions or the cosmetic and personal care products may vary greatly but is preferable in a range of about 1 to 20% by weight of the total composition. One or more sunscreen agents may be utilized with the combined concentration of said agents preferably in the range of 1 to 20% by weight of the composition. Greater amounts of these agents may be incorporated into various products limited only by processing and economic considerations. Specific embodiments if the present invention are illustrated by the following examples. It will be understood, however, that the invention is not confined to the specific limitations set forth in the individual examples, but rather to the scope of the appended claims.
