Abstract

The invention relates to the use of compounds of the phenoxyalkylamine family of formula (I) in cosmetic and/or dermatological compositions, especially as preserving agents. The invention also relates to compositions comprising, especially as preserving agent, at least one phenoxyalkylamine of formula (I).

Description

Use of phenoxyalkylamines in cosmetic and/or dermatological compositions
The invention relates to the use of compounds of the phenoxyalkylamine family of formula (I) in cosmetic and/or dermatological compositions, especially as preserving agents.
The invention also relates to compositions comprising, especially as preserving agent, at least one phenoxyalkylamine of formula (I).
The invention also relates to particular compounds of the phenoxyalkylamine family of formula (I) and to cosmetic and/or dermatological compositions containing them.
It is common practice to introduce into cosmetic or dermatological compositions chemical preserving agents for combating the growth of microorganisms in these compositions, which would make them rapidly unsuitable for use. The compositions especially need to be protected against microorganisms that are capable of growing inside the composition and also against those that the user might introduce therein by handling it, in particular when taking up with the fingers products in jars. Commonly used chemical preserving agents are especially parabens or formaldehyde-releasing compounds. However, these preserving agents have the drawback of causing irritation, in particular on sensitive skin, when they are present in relatively large amounts. Known preserving agents that may be mentioned include organic hydroxy acids. However, these compounds may also give rise to irritation due to their desquamating effect on the skin, which is not always well tolerated.
Moreover, out of concern to preserve the environment, consumers are increasingly in search of environmentally friendly preserving agents.
There is thus still a need for preserving agents, especially antimicrobial agents, whose action is at least as effective as the compounds of the prior art, but which do not have their drawbacks.
The aim of the present invention is to propose novel preserving agents that especially have a broad antimicrobial spectrum, and that do not have the drawbacks of the prior art. Thus, one subject of the present invention is the use of at least one compound of the phenoxyalkylamine family corresponding to formula (I)
Figure imgf000003_0001
I in which R1 represents a linear or branched saturated hydrocarbon-based chain CnH2n with n = 1 to 8, or an unsaturated hydrocarbon-based chain CnH2n-2 with n = 1 to 8, and in which the phenyl group is unsubstituted, and also salts thereof, in a cosmetic and/or dermatological composition also comprising a physiologically acceptable medium, especially as a preserving agent.
The term "preserving agent" means a substance that is commonly added to a composition in order to ensure its preservation with respect to a contaminant.
Advantageously, the compounds of formula (I) according to the invention are used as antimicrobial and/or antibacterial and/or antifungal agents.
Another subject of the invention is a process for preserving a cosmetic and/or dermatological composition, characterized in that it consists in incorporating into the said composition at least one compound of the phenoxyalkylamine family of formula (I) as defined hereinbelow.
The invention also relates to particular compounds of the phenoxyalkylamine family of formula (I), in particular: - A: the compounds of formula (I) as defined above, in which R1 represents a linear or branched saturated hydrocarbon-based chain CnH2n with n = 4 to 8, or an unsaturated hydrocarbon-based chain CnH2n-2 with n = 4 to 8, and in which the phenyl group is unsubstituted, and also salts thereof; and - B: the compounds of formula (I) as defined above, in a salified form, especially in the presence of a mineral or organic acid, preferably an organic acid.
More preferably, the organic acid is citric acid. According to another embodiment, the organic acid is lactic acid (enantiomerically pure or racemic).
Another subject of the invention is a process for preparing a compound of formula (I), comprising: a) a step of chemical synthesis of the said compound defined above in A especially according to one of the reactions chosen from: i) alkylation of phenol with a haloalkylamide (C4-C8 alkyl chain), followed by a reduction; ii) alkylation of phenol with a C4-C8 dihaloalkane, followed by an amination; iii) amination via reaction of a phenoxyhaloalkane (C4-C8 alkane chain) with potassium phthalimide; iv) reaction between phenol and an amino alcohol (C4-C8 alcohol); or v) opening of the oxazolidine ring with phenol, followed by a hydrolysis; b) optionally, a step of salification in the presence of at least one mineral acid or one organic acid.
Another subject of the invention is a process for preparing a compound as defined above in B, comprising: a) a step of chemical synthesis of the said compound especially according to one of the reactions chosen from: i) alkylation of phenol with a haloalkylamide (C2-C8 alkyl chain), followed by a reduction; ii) alkylation of phenol with a C2-C8 dihaloalkane, followed by an amination; iii) amination via reaction of a phenoxyhaloalkane (C2-C8 alkane chain) with potassium phthalimide; iv) reaction between phenol and an amino alcohol (C2-C8 alcohol); or v) opening of the oxazolidine ring with phenol, followed by a hydrolysis; or, according to an alternative, the use of 2-phenoxyethylamine or 3-phenoxy- propylamine; b) a step of salification in the presence of at least one mineral acid or one organic acid, in particular a citric acid or a lactic acid.
The mineral acid may be chosen especially from hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid and phosphoric acid. The organic acid may be chosen especially from carbonic acid, acetic acid, succinic acid, fumaric acid, lactic acid (enantiomerically pure or racemic), glycolic acid, citric acid, gluconic acid, salicylic acid and tartaric acid (enantiomerically pure or racemic).
Preferably, the step of salification of the said phenoxyalkylamine compounds of formula (I) according to the invention will take place in the presence of an alcohol or an alcohol ester, and in the presence of an organic acid.
These chemical reactions are described hereinbelow.
Another subject of the invention is a cosmetic and/or dermatological composition comprising, in a physiologically acceptable medium, at least one compound of the phenoxyalkylamine family corresponding to formula (I) as defined previously, especially as a preserving agent.
The said composition according to the invention may especially be in the form of:
- a makeup product for facial skin, bodily skin or the lips;
- an antisun or artificial tanning composition;
- an aftershave gel or lotion; - a hair-removing cream;
- a body hygiene composition, such as a shower gel, a shampoo or a deodorant;
- a pharmaceutical composition;
- a solid composition such as a soap or a cleansing bar;
- an aerosol composition also comprising a propellant under pressure; - a hairsetting lotion, a hairstyling cream or gel, a dye composition, a hair restructuring lotion, a permanent-waving composition or a lotion or gel for combating hair loss;
- a composition for dentibuccal use.
According to one particular embodiment, the composition according to the invention does not contain any parabens.
According to another particular embodiment, the composition according to the invention does not contain any preserving agent other than the compound(s) of the phenoxyalkylamine family of formula (I). The Applicant has found, surprisingly and unexpectedly, that the compounds of the phenoxyalkylamine family corresponding to formula (I) according to the invention, in which the amine and the phenyl group are unsubstituted, have good antimicrobial properties, whether it is towards bacteria, yeasts or moulds. On account of their broad antimicrobial spectrum, these compounds may thus be used, especially in cosmetic compositions, as antimicrobial agents, especially as antibacterial agents, and/or as antifungal agents, i.e. as anti-yeast and/or anti-mould agents. These compounds of formula (I) may thus be used advantageously in cosmetic and/or dermatological compositions, especially as preserving agents.
It is known from the prior art to use phenoxyalkylamine derivatives, substituted on the phenyl group with halogen (e.g.: Cl or Br) or haloaryl groups and/or substituted on the amine, as dopamine receptor antagonists, for the preparation of pharmaceutical compositions for treating psychosis and schizophrenia (US 6 051 605) or as bactericides in agriculture and horticulture (US 5 409 957, EP 446 873).
It is also known to use alkoxybenzylamine compounds as antimicrobial agents and to use them in industrial processes, detergent formulations and cosmetic formulations.
It is also known to use compounds of the phenoxyalcohols family as preserving agent in cosmetic compositions (JP 2002-350791 ).
However, to the Applicant's knowledge, the phenoxyalkylamines corresponding to formula (I) according to the invention, in which the amine and the phenyl group are unsubstituted, have never been proposed in cosmetic compositions, and even less so as preserving agents.
Phenoxyethylamine (RN: 1758-46-9) is known especially in the plastics industry. Phenoxypropylamine (RN: 7617-76-7) is also known.
The compounds of formula (I) according to the invention have as an advantage a clearly defined and characterized chemical structure, resulting in easy reproducibility of their manufacture; their industrial feasibility is also relatively simple.
Furthermore, they show good solubility or compatibility with the media commonly used in cosmetics, especially aqueous media. In addition, the compounds of formula (I) have the advantage of being odourless and environmentally friendly.
Phenoxyalkylamines of formula (I) according to the invention
The compounds of the phenoxyalkylamine family according to the invention correspond to formula (I) below:
Figure imgf000007_0001
