Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of preparation of moisturizers, and particularly relates to a mercapto-phosphorylcholine for hair moisturizers, a preparation method thereof, and an application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Generally, moisturizers can be classified into inorganic, organic, and metal-organic moisturizers. Among them, the inorganic moisturizer is mainly calcium chloride; the organic moisturizers include polyols, amino acids, and polysaccharides; the metal-organic moisturizers include lactate and gluconate. Moisturizers are often incorporated into topical agents, cosmetics, and quasi-drugs to adjust the moisture on the hair surface, impart a moist feeling to the hair, and extend the moisturizing effect. For example, Luo Lingling synthesized N-mercaptoacetylserine from N-chloroacetylserine and sodium hydrosulfide, which is a mercapto-containing moisturizer that can graft onto hair and has good moisture absorption performance. However, this moisturizer is easily inactivated at high temperatures and is easily oxidized (Research on mercapto-active ingredients in hair cosmetics [D]. Master's thesis of Jiangnan University, 2006: 30-39). Yamanashi Minokuma et al. designed cationic vesicles encapsulating cholesterol using cholesterol as a raw material, which can achieve the introduction of cholesterol into hair and effectively improve the moisture absorption and retention ability of hair. However, the preparation process is complex and the practical application is difficult, which limits its use (Yamanashi Minokuma, Sagara Keisuke, Konno Yoshikazu, et al. Cholesterol introduction system hair moisturizer [C] / / China Flavor and Fragrance Cosmetics Industry Association. Proceedings of the 9th China Cosmetics Symposium (Part 1). Institute of Kose Co., Ltd.;, 2012: 231-237.).
[0003] Monomers with phospholipid groups have excellent moisture absorption and retention capabilities and are highly favored by researchers in the field of biomaterials. When these monomers with phospholipid groups modify the surface of a material to mimic the outer structure of the cell membrane, the material will have good biocompatibility and exhibit ideal interactions with biological tissues. Therefore, monomers with phospholipid groups have great application potential in the field of moisturizers. Chinese Patent CN 107652392 B, "Preparation Method of a Polymer Containing Mercapto Phosphorylcholine," polymerizes a vinyl monomer containing a phosphorylcholine hydrophilic group and styrene by free radical polymerization to obtain a phosphorylcholine polymer containing a benzene ring, then conducts a chloromethylation reaction on it, and finally reacts with sodium hydrosulfide to prepare a polymer containing mercapto phosphorylcholine. Arunee Sangsuwan et al. used MPC, 1,6-hexanedithiol, and diisopropylamine as raw materials to react at room temperature to obtain a mercapto-functionalized phosphorylcholine monomer (Arunee Sangsuwan, Thiolated-2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine protected silver nanoparticles as novel photo-induced cell-killing agents, Colloids and Surfaces B: Biointerfaces, 2015). However, the above-obtained mercapto phosphorylcholine does not belong to the field of moisturizer preparation. Therefore, it is of great significance to prepare a moisturizer with excellent moisture absorption and retention capabilities, good biocompatibility, stability at high temperatures, and stable binding to hair by a simple and environmentally friendly method. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned deficiencies and drawbacks of the prior art, the primary object of the present invention is to provide a mercapto phosphorylcholine for use in hair moisturizers. This mercapto phosphorylcholine simultaneously contains a mercapto group, a phosphorylcholine group, and a hydroxyl group, and has good moisture absorption and retention capabilities, biocompatibility, binding stability, and adjustable overall hydrophilicity.
[0005] Another object of the present invention is to provide a preparation method for the above-mentioned mercapto phosphorylcholine. Under an alkaline catalyst and a suitable solvent, by controlling the appropriate dosage ratio of reactants, epichlorohydrin undergoes a ring-opening reaction with glycerophosphorylcholine to carry out an etherification reaction, then reacts with a sodium hydrosulfide solution under suitable conditions, and finally adjusts the pH to obtain mercapto phosphorylcholine.
[0006] Another object of the present invention is to provide the application of the above-mentioned mercapto phosphorylcholine in the field of preparing hair moisturizers.
[0007] The objects of the present invention are achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0008] The molecular formula of thiolated phosphorylcholine for hair moisturizer is shown as follows:
[0009]
[0010] The preparation method of the thiolated phosphorylcholine for hair moisturizer includes two steps:
[0011] S1. Add the alkaline catalyst solution to glycerophosphorylcholine dried under vacuum at 40 - 50 °C. After stirring evenly at 50 - 60 °C for 10 - 15 min, add epichlorohydrin dropwise and continue stirring and reacting for 3 - 3.5 h to obtain an etherification product;
[0012] S2. Add hydrochloric acid dropwise to an aqueous solution of sodium sulfide to prepare a NaSH solution;
[0013] S3. At 70 - 80 °C, add the NaSH solution dropwise to the etherification product obtained in step S1. After the addition is complete, carry out condensation reflux and stirring reaction for 2 - 2.5 h. After the reaction ends and cools down, stir and add dilute hydrochloric acid until a white precipitate is precipitated. After centrifuging to remove the precipitate, dry the supernatant to obtain thiolated phosphorylcholine.
[0014] Preferably, in step S1, the molar ratio of glycerophosphorylcholine to epichlorohydrin is 1:(1.5 - 1.8); the alkaline catalyst is sodium hydroxide or / and potassium hydroxide, and the molar ratio of glycerophosphorylcholine to the alkaline catalyst in the alkaline catalyst solution is 2:(1 - 3); the volume of deionized water and the mass of the alkaline catalyst in the alkaline catalyst solution are (5 - 10) mL:0.1 g; the stirring rate is 400 - 600 r / min.
[0015] Preferably, in step S2, the molar ratio of sodium sulfide nonahydrate in the aqueous solution of sodium sulfide to glycerophosphorylcholine in step S1 is 2:(1 - 1.2); the molar ratio of hydrochloric acid to sodium sulfide nonahydrate in the aqueous solution of sodium sulfide is 1:(1 - 1.2); the concentration of hydrochloric acid is 1 - 3 mol / L.
[0016] Preferably, in step S3, the molar concentration of the dilute hydrochloric acid is 6 - 12 mol / L; the concentration of the NaSH solution is 0.1 - 0.5 g / mL; the stirring rate is 400 - 600 r / min.
[0017] The application of the thiolated phosphorylcholine in the field of preparing hair moisturizer.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0019] 1. The hydroxyl groups contained in the mercapto phosphoryl choline of the present invention can better regulate the overall moisture absorption and retention properties. By introducing mercapto groups, it can bind to hair in the form of disulfide chemical bonds, and the firm binding can prolong the moisturizing effect. The hair moisturizer prepared based on mercapto phosphoryl choline has phosphoryl choline groups on its surface, has a stronger moisture absorption ability than common moisturizers on the market, and at the same time has good biocompatibility.
[0020] 2. The preparation method of the present invention is simple, highly practical, green and environmentally friendly. The raw materials used have low costs, are rich in sources and easy to obtain, and are easy to promote. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
