Description
This is a continuation of application Ser. No. 351,398 filed Apr. 16, 1973, now abandoned.
It is well known that electromagnetic radiation which emanates from the sun and passes through the atmosphere of the earth, and which is in the range of 297 nm to 320 nm, may have a detrimental and deleterious effect on paints, plastics, and certain other substances. It is further recognized that electromagnetic radiation is harmful and damaging to human skin since this wavelength range causes cutaneous sunburn and carcinogenesis. This range of radiation is often referred to as the erthromogenic region.
It is not as well known that regions of electromagnetic radiation generally in the range of 320 nm to about 700 nm but more usually in the range of 320 nm to about 450 nm can cause, directly or indirectly, an adverse effect or response to the skin and to subcutaneous tissues and organs, particularly in connection with the influence of other agents, e.g., coal tar extracts, plant extracts, phenothiazines, furocoumarans, and halogenated salicylanilides.
More particularly the influence of sunlight in connection with the use of such drugs by topical, oral, or parenteral administration to the patient can cause adverse effects, for example, edema, hyperpigmentation, vesicle formation, urticaria, and exaggerated sunburn. Other disorders such as polymorphic light eruptions, certain porphyrias, and lupus erthematosis are, apparently, significantly exaggerated by light of these longer wavelengths, i.e., 320 to 360 nm.
The electromagnetic radiation within the ultraviolet and visible spectrum incident to an object can be blocked by a mechanical barrier, e.g., of titanium dioxide, which prevents passage of all raddiation regardless of wavelength. Another method which permits the greater part of the incident radiation to pass through and which takes out only a narrow spectrum of such radiation is the employment of a selective sunscreen agent. A sunscreen agent is a chemical substance which interacts photochemically with radiation of certain wavelengths of the electromagnetic spectrum to remove all or part of these wavelengths. Thus important criteria for a sunscreening agent are (1) the ability to absorb light, i.e., to display an ultraviolet or visible light absorption spectrum and (2) to absorb the light efficiently, i.e, to have a molar absorptivity (extinction coefficient) of at least 20,000.
For the purpose of discussion, a short-range sunscreen agent is defined as a substance which absorbs light efficiently in the range of 297 nm to 320 nm. An intermediate-range sunscreen is a substance which absorbs light efficiently in the 320 nm to 360 nm range. A long-range sunscreen is a substance which efficiently absorbs light above 360 nm.
It would be beneficial to have available chemical substances which absorb a relatively narrow-selected range of solor electromagnetic radiation. It would be particularly beneficial to have substances which absorb beyond the erythromogenic range.
Para-aminobenzoic acid and certain esters thereof are compounds which absorb light efficiently in the erythromogenic regions and are popularly employed to prevent sunburn. These compounds are readily available in commercial sunscreening formulations. Certain benzophenones, which generally have lower molar extinction coefficients but a wide range of spectral absorption, are also available in commercial formulations as sunburn preventatives. There appears to be no chemical substances which are employed solely as intermediate-range sunscreens for those that are known to absorb radiation also in the erythromogenic regions.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide new and useful light absorbing compositions. It is also an object of this invention to provide new and useful intermediate-range sunscreen agents, as above described, for topical use in the field of dermatology. It is a further object of this invention to provide compositions which can be applied topically to human skin and which are useful as intermediate-range sunscreen compositions.
The instant invention is directed to certain new 4-(disubstituted)aminoacylphenones and to the use of these compounds as intermediate-range sunscreen agents. Another aspect of the invention is compositions comprising such compounds formulated in a suitable acceptable pharmaceutical preparation for topical application, said sunscreen agents being used in a concentration range from about 1% to about 10%.
The instant invention more particularly describes .[.4-N,N-bis(w-hydroxyalkyl)-aminoacylphenones.]. .Iadd.4-N,N-bis(ω-hydroxyalkyl)-aminoacyclphenones .Iaddend.as intermediate-range sunscreen agents being employed topically in a suitable formulation at concentrations of about 1.5% to about 6%.
A preferred embodiment of particular interest to the instant invention are certain .[.4-N,N-bis(w-hydroxyalkyl)aminoacylphenones.]. .Iadd.4-N,N-bis(ω-hydroxyalkyl)-aminoacylphenones .Iaddend.as intermediate-range sunscreen agents being employed at concentrations of about 1% to about 10% in a suitably acceptable pharmaceutical preparation and being the formula: ##STR1## in which n is one to three and in which the acyl group ##STR2## is attached to the 4 or para position of the dialkylaniline, and consists of from 2 to 16 carbon atoms, such alkyl groups, being derived from an alkanoic acid.
Another embodiment of the present invention is the use of the disclosed compounds as intermediate-range sunscreen agents for topical application, such compounds being formulated in a suitable composition at concentrations of about 1.5% to about 6%. Preferred acyl groups are those derived from the lower alkanoic acids, excluding formic acid, where R of structure I is lower alkyl, i.e., alkyl of 1 to 6 carbon chain length. Illustrative compounds suitable for use as intermediaterange sunscreen agents include
4-N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)aminoacetophenone,
4-N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)aminopropiophenone,
4-N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)aminobutyraphenone,
4-N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)aminovalerophenone, and the like.
These compounds can be formulated into well-known cosmetically and dermatologically acceptable formulations such as those hereinafter described and illustrated. In general, the formulation does not influence the actual radiation absorbing ability of the sunscreen agent, but merely facilitates the application and use thereof.
In other aspects this invention is directed to the use of the compounds of formula I in methods for the protection of various materials and substances from the effects of ultraviolet radiation. It is well-known that various pigments, plastics and other substances are deleteriously effected by ultraviolet radiation. Such materials can be conveniently protected by providing an effective amount of a suitable radiation absorbing compound either as a film on the surface of the object or as an ingredient therein. The use of light stabilizers in plastics and paints is a well-known technique. Similarly the disclosed compounds can be used in a method for preventing a particular effect of ultraviolet radiation on the skin, i.e., the skin reddening effect known as erythema. This is accomplished by providing a protective layer comprising an effective amount of a radiation screening compound. The term effective amount refers to an amount sufficient to screen out or absorb substantially all of the radiation having a wave length between about 297 nm and 320 nm. This amount will usually depend on both the absorption spectrum and the efficiency with which the radiation is absorbed, e.g., the extinction coefficient of the compound. Accordingly, the quantitative value of an effective amount will vary from compound to compound and also for differing sources of radiation.
The following examples illustrate the preparation of the compounds and formulations comprising the compounds.
A mixture of 113.5 g. (0.84 moles) of 4-aminoacetophenone 230 ml. of 2N acetic acid, and 230 ml. of ethylene oxide was heated at 130° (for 17 hours in a Parr stainless steel pressure reaction vessel). The apparatus and the reaction products were cooled and thick brown oil which solidified was obtained. The solid reaction product was broken up and enough water was added to make it filterable. After filtering and washing, the residue solid was extracted into 2.5 liters of hot methylene chloride and the hot organic phase was dried over magnesium sulfate. Upon cooling the dry methylene chloride solution, yellow crystals were formed and collected. The crystals were washed with methylene chloride and dried. Recrystallization from methylene chloride gave 58.0 g. (31.0% yield) of product as shiney yellow plates, mp. 103.5°-105.5°. ##EQU1## (Am=29,650). Anal.: Calc'd for C12 H17 NO3 : C, 64.55; H, 7.67; N, 6.27; O, 21.50. Found: C, 64.73; H, 7.59; N, 6.19.
A mixture of 125.0 gm. (0.84 mole) of 4-aminopropiophenone was reacted with ethylene oxide in the presence of 2N acetic acid as described in EXAMPLE 1. The thick dark reaction product solution solidified with difficulty upon cooling and scratching. After filtering and washing with water as in Example 1, a tan solid was obtained and crystallized from a large volume of water and then recrystallized twice from methyl ethyl ketone to give 55.7 g (28.0%) of the product as off-white crystals, m.p. 97°-99°. ##EQU2## (Am = 28,000). Calc'd for C13 H19 NO3 : C, 65.80; H, 8.07; N, 5.90; O, 20.23. Found: C, 65.96; H, 8.15; N, 5.85.
4-Aminobutyrophenone (138.5 g., 0.84 mole) was reacted as described in Example 1. The brown oil reaction product was distilled in vacuo to a head temperature of 247° at 0.7 mm pressure. The distillate was discarded and the distillant solidified upon standing. The resulting crude solid was twice crystallized from methyl ethyl ketone to give 63.8 g. (30.3%) of product, mp. 70°-72°. ##EQU3## (Am = 29,500). Anal. Calc'd for C14 H21 NO3 : C, 66.91; H, 8.42; N, 5.57; O, 19.10. Found: C, 66.76; H, 8.18; N, 5.53.
A mixture of 21.7 g. (0.122 mole) of 4-aminovalerophenone (Eastman) and 44 ml. each of 2N HOAc and ethylene oxide was reacted as described in Example 1. The cooled reaction product was thick brown syrup which was diluted with 50 ml. of ethyl acetate and stored at -10° overnight. The crude product (12.7 gm., mp. 50°-55°) was crystallized from benzene to give 11.2 g. (34.5%) of the product as stout colorless prisms, mp. 66°-68°. ##EQU4## (Am = 30,300). Anal. Calc'd for C15 H23 NO3 : C, 67.90; H, 8.74; N, 5.28; O, 18.09. Found: C, 68.15; H, 8.73; N, 5.17.
Toxicity studies on the several 4-N,N-bis(2-Hydroxyethyl)aminoacylphenones were carried out in mice. When groups of mice were dosed daily at the level of 200 mg/kg, subcutaneously, the results during a twenty-one day test period were as follows:

From the above toxicity data, it is apparent that these 4-N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)-aminoacylphenones are relatively non-toxic
Irritation tests were carried out by occluding the compound being tested on freshly shaved rabbit skin under a one centimeter square gauze patch upon which there had been placed 0.5 c.c. of a 5% solution of the particular compound dissolved in a 60-40 ethanol-water mixture. Occlusion was maintained for twenty-four hours after which the test area was evaluated for irritation as evidenced by edema or erythema. The rating scale was 0-4 for both edema and erythema. The results of the tests were as follows:
