The invention relates to a composition for the oxidation dyeing of keratinous fibers, and in particular of human keratinous fibers such as human hair, comprising at least one pyrazoloazole compound as an oxidation base, the method of dyeing which employs this composition, and novel pyrazoloazoles. [0001]
It is well known to dye keratinous fibers, and in particular human hair, using dyeing compositions comprising oxidation dye precursors, such as ortho- or para-phenylenediamines, ortho- or para-aminophenols, and heterocyclic compounds, which are generally referred to as oxidation bases. The oxidation dye precursors, or oxidation bases, are colorless or lightly colored compounds which, when combined with oxidizing products, can give rise, by an oxidative coupling process, to colored and coloring compounds. [0002]
It is also known that the shades obtained with these oxidation bases can be varied by combining them with couplers or coloring modifiers, the latter being chosen in particular from aromatic meta-diamines, meta-aminophenols, meta-diphenols and certain heterocyclic compounds, such as indole compounds. [0003]
The diversity of the molecules employed as oxidation bases and couplers makes it possible to obtain a wide range of colors. [0004]
The “permanent” coloration obtained by these oxidation dyes should optimally meet certain conditions. Thus, it should have no toxicological effects, should allow shades of the desired intensity to be obtained, and should have good resistance to external agents (light, bad weather, washing, permanent waving, perspiration or rubbing). [0005]
The dyes should also allow white hairs to be covered and, finally, they should be as unselective as possible, that is to say, they should allow the smallest possible differences in coloration to be produced over the entire length of a single keratinous fibre, which may vary in condition of sensitization or damage from its tip to its root. They should also exhibit good chemical stability in the formulations and a good toxicological profile. [0006]
The inventors have discovered that it is possible to obtain powerful novel dyes which are not very selective, are particularly resistant to various external agents which keratinous fibers can be subjected to, and which are capable of generating intense colorings in varied shades by using, as oxidation base, pyrazoloazole compounds of formula (I) defined below. [0007]
This discovery is the basis of the present invention. [0008]
The first aspect of the invention is thus a composition for the oxidation dyeing of keratinous fibers, and in particular human keratinous fibers such as hair, comprising, in a medium suitable for dyeing: [0009]
as oxidation base, at least one pyrazoloazole compound of formula (I) or at least one acid addition salt thereof:
