Description

[0001]Henkel AG & Co. KGaA 2021P00425WO Agent for the oxidative coloring of keratin fibers, containing isatin and at least one specific polymer. The present invention relates to cosmetic agents for the oxidative coloring of keratin fibers, which contain isatin (a) and at least one polymer (b) selected from the group consisting of xanthan gum, algin, carrageenan, cetyl hydroxyethyl cellulose, carboxymethylcellulose, tragacanth, karaya gum, ghatti gum, agar, chitin, chitosan, gum arabic, gellan gum, guar gum, tamarind gum, locust bean gum, and physiologically acceptable salts thereof. A further subject matter is a process for the oxidative coloring of keratin fibers, in which an agent as described above is applied to the keratin fibers and rinsed out again after a contact time.For the provision of color-changing cosmetic products, particularly for keratinous fibers such as hair, the expert is familiar with various coloring systems depending on the coloring requirements. So-called oxidation dyes are used for permanent, intensive colorings with corresponding fastness properties. Such dyes typically contain oxidation dye precursors, so-called developer components and coupler components, which, under the influence of oxidizing agents such as hydrogen peroxide, form the actual dyes. These oxidation dyes are characterized by excellent, long-lasting coloring results. The oxidation dye precursors (developer and coupler) themselves are not colored; rather, the formation of the actual dyes only occurs during application through contact between the oxidation dye precursors and the oxidizing agent (hydrogen peroxide).In a chemical reaction, the developers used as oxidation dye precursors (such as p-phenylenediamine or its derivatives) are first oxidatively converted by hydrogen peroxide into a reactive intermediate, also called quinone imine or quinone diimine. This intermediate then reacts with the couplers in an oxidative coupling reaction to form the respective dye. With oxidative dyes, hair can be colored in both intense fashion shades and natural tones by selecting the appropriate developer and coupler components. A major application for oxidative dyes is the coloring of gray hair in a natural shade that resembles the hair color the user had in their younger years.A classic combination for creating oxidative colorings in the brown to dark blonde range is the use of developers based on the base compound 1,4-diaminobenzene (para-phenylenediamine) and couplers with a resorcinol structure (1,3-dihydroxybenzene). These oxidation dyes have been in use for decades. Although they are intended only for extracorporeal application on keratin fibers such as scalp hair, eyelashes, and eyebrows, contact of the dye with the scalp cannot be completely avoided during application. To ensure the highest possible product safety for customers, commercially available oxidation dye precursors are continuously tested for their physiological compatibility, for example, by the Scientific Committee on Consumer Products (SCCP), an advisory body of the European Commission.It is known that some oxidation dye precursors, particularly some para-phenylenediamine-type oxidation bases, may have a certain sensitization potential. Therefore, customers are advised to conduct a preliminary skin test with a small amount of the dye before applying the dye to hair to rule out allergic reactions during or after the dyeing process. In addition to skin sensitization, other physiological effects are also monitored. Resorcinol, 4-chlororesorcinol, and 2-methylresorcinol are common oxidation dye precursors with a 1,3-dihydroxybenzene parent structure. In its latest opinion of March 2021, the SCCP concluded that the use of resorcinol in oxidative hair dyes is considered safe at a resorcinol concentration of up to 1.25% by weight in the ready-to-use mixture. The SCCP mentioned that resorcinol has antithyroid effects.While a clear exposure level required for such an effect cannot be derived from the available human studies, most of these studies indicate a relatively much higher exposure than is the case with cosmetics. In order to address the concerns of some consumers regarding product safety, the aim of the present invention was to provide an agent for the oxidative coloring of keratin fibers, in particular human hair, which can cover a broad color spectrum, in particular a natural color palette with cool natural tones and warm natural tones, as well as a gold color series resulting in colorations with high fastness properties without compromising product safety. In particular, coloring in these natural shades should be possible without the use of recorcinol-type couplers.Many users dye their hair the same shade for decades and do not want a sudden, overtly visible change in their usual hair color. For these users, it is therefore essential to be able to replace the usual resorcinol-containing hair dye with a new, resorcinol-free product without a shift in shade. A central challenge of the present application was therefore to find a new, resorcinol-free hair dye whose color output and color result match the resorcinol-containing dye used previously as closely as possible.Surprisingly, it has now been found that this task can be excellently solved by an oxidative coloring agent which contains isatin (a) and at least one polymer (b) from the group consisting of xanthan, algin, carrageenan, cetyl hydroxyethyl cellulose, carboxymethylcellulose, tragacanth, karaya gum, ghatti gum, agar, chitin, chitosan, gum arabic, gellan, guar, tamarind kernel flour and their physiologically acceptable salts. A first subject of the present invention is an agent for the oxidative coloring of keratinic fibers, in particular human hair, comprising in a cosmetic carrier (a) isatin and (b) at least one polymer from the group consisting of xanthan, algin, carrageenan, cetyl hydroxyethyl cellulose, carboxymethylcellulose, tragacanth, karaya gum, ghatti gum, agar, chitin, chitosan, gum arabic, gellan, guar, tamarind seed flour, locust bean gum and their physiologically acceptable salts.The work leading to this invention has shown that the oxidative coloring of hair using isatin (a) leads to very intensive colors with outstanding fastness properties if the coloring agent also contains a specific polymer from the above-mentioned group (b). Keratin fibers Keratin fibers are understood to mean, in principle, all animal hair, e.g. wool, horsehair, angora hair, furs, feathers and products or textiles made therefrom. Preferably, however, the keratin fibers are human hair. Agents for oxidative coloring The term “agent for oxidative coloring” of keratin fibers used in the invention refers to oxidative colorants. Oxidative colorants contain oxidation dye precursors, so-called developers and couplers. Developers and couplers diffuse separately into the keratin fibers and, under the influence of an alkalizing agent (e.g.B. ammonia) and an oxidizing agent (hydrogen peroxide) react chemically with each other to form the actual dyes. Depending on the amount of oxidizing agent used, the keratin fiber is lightened to a greater or lesser extent during the coloring process, as the oxidizing agent not only initiates the dye formation process of developers and couplers, but also oxidatively destroys the hair's own pigments (melanins). Depending on the amounts of oxidation dye precursors and oxidizing agent used, oxidative coloring can therefore primarily be a coloring (with a high dye content) or primarily a lightening (with a high oxidizing agent content). In the latter case, the oxidation dye precursors are used primarily to shade the lightening result.The agents according to the invention contain the constituents essential to the invention in a cosmetic carrier, preferably in a suitable aqueous, alcoholic, or aqueous-alcoholic carrier. For the purpose of hair coloring, such carriers are, for example, creams, emulsions, gels, or surfactant-containing foaming solutions, such as shampoos, foam aerosols, foam formulations, or other preparations suitable for application to the hair. The oxidative colorant described above is a ready-to-use colorant which, in this form containing constituents (a) and (b), is applied to the keratin fibers for application. Isatin The oxidative colorant contains isatin (a) as the first constituent essential to the invention. Isatin is the compound of the formula (ISA), which can alternatively also be referred to as 2,3-indoline-dione or 2,3-dioxoindoline. Isatin has the CAS number 91-56-5. With a view to optimally achieving the objective of the invention, isatin (a) is preferably present in the agent according to the invention in certain quantity ranges. Particularly good results were obtained when the agent contained, based on the total weight of the agent, 0.001 to 10 wt.%, preferably 0.01 to 5 wt.%, more preferably 0.1 to 3.5 wt.%, and most preferably 0.15 to 2.5 wt.% of isatin (a). In a particularly preferred embodiment, an agent according to the invention is therefore characterized in that it contains, based on the total weight of the agent, 0.001 to 10 wt.%, preferably 0.01 to 5 wt.%, more preferably 0.1 to 3.5 wt.%, and most preferably 0.15 to 2.5 wt.% of isatin (a). Isatin can be obtained commercially from various suppliers such as Acros, Sigma Aldrich,Thermo Scientific, etc. Polymers (b) As the second component (b) essential to the invention, the colorant according to the invention contains at least one polymer from the group consisting of xanthan, algin, carrageenan, cetyl hydroxyethyl cellulose, carboxymethylcellulose, tragacanth, karaya gum, ghatti gum, agar, chitin, chitosan, gum arabic, gellan, guar, tamarind seed flour, locust bean gum, and their physiologically acceptable salts. Xanthan is a polysaccharide consisting, among other things, of the structural components D-glucose, D-mannose, D-glucuronic acid,Acetate and pyruvate, and is also known under the INCI name Xanthan Gum. Xanthan contains carboxyl groups and is anionic or anionizable. The physiologically acceptable salts of xanthan are also according to the invention. For example, CP Kelco markets xanthan commercially under the trade name Keltrol TF. The salts of alginic acid are referred to as alginates (INCI name Algin). Alginic acid is also alternatively referred to as algin. Alginates are acidic, carboxyl-containing polysaccharides consisting of D-mannuronic acid and D-guluronic acid in varying ratios, which are linked by 1-4 glycosidic bonds. According to the invention, in particular the alkali and alkaline earth salts of alginic acids are used. The use of alginic acid, sodium alginate, potassium alginate,Ammonium alginate and / or calcium alginate are highlighted. The sodium salt of alkyne, for example, can be purchased from Kelco under the trade name Kelgin F. Carrageenan is also synonymously referred to as carrageenan. Carrageenan is sulfated galactan, which can be obtained, for example, by extraction from red algae. The carrageenan precipitated from the hot-water extract of the algae is a colorless to sandy-colored powder with a molecular weight of 100,000–800,000 and a sulfate content of approximately 25%, which is very easily soluble in warm water. Carrageenan is divided into three main components: XQWHUVFKLHGOLFKHQ^ (LJHQVFKDIWHQ^^ EHL^ GHQHQ^ HV^ VLFK^ XP^ ^^ -&DUUDJHHQDQ^^ ^-&DUUDJHHQDQ^ XQG^ ^- Carrageenan. The gel-forming ^-fraction consists of D-galactose-4-sulfate and 3,6-anhydro-Į-D-galactose, which are alternately glycosidically linked in the 1,3- and 1,4-positions. The non-gelling ^-fraction consists of 1,It is composed of 3-glycosidically linked D-galactose-2-sulfate and 1,4-linked D-galactose-2,6-disulfate residues and is readily soluble in cold water. ^-Carrageenan, composed of D-galactose-4-sulfate in a 1,3-bond and 3,6-anhydro-ή-D-galactose-2-sulfate in a 1,4-bond, is soluble in hot water and also gel-forming. Cetyl hydroxyethyl cellulose, alternatively known as hexadecylhydroxyethyl cellulose, is a hydrophobically modified hydroxyethyl cellulose and bears the CAS number 80455-45-4. Cetyl hydroxyethyl cellulose is a nonionic associative polymer containing both hydroxyalkyl groups and long-chain alkyl groups. Cetyl Hydroxyethyl Cellulose, for example, can be purchased commercially from Ashland under the trade name Natrosol Plus 330 CS. Carboxymethylcelluloses are cellulose ethers, derivatives of cellulose,in which some of the hydroxyl groups are linked as ethers to a carboxymethyl group (-CH2-COOH). In the free acid form, carboxymethylcellulose has the CAS number 9000-11-7, and the sodium salt has the CAS number 9004-32-4. Both the free acid and the sodium salt of carboxymethylcellulose are in accordance with the invention. Carboxymethylcellulose can be purchased, for example, from the manufacturer Shahid Zeinoddin under the trade name Carboxymethylcellulose sodium salt. The substance is also commercially available from SE Tylose (Shin Etsu) under the trade name Tylose C 6000. Traganth (also known as tragacanth, tragacanth gum, gum tragacanth) is a gum or a natural polysaccharide. It consists of the sap of shrubby members of the Fabaceae genus Astragalus (Astragalus gummifer), which dries out after cutting trunks and branches.Astragalus bustillosii and Astragalus tragacantha, as well as Astracantha adscendens, Astracantha microcephala, Astracantha kurdica, and Astracantha strobilifera. Karaya (Indian tragacanth, karaya gum, sterculia gum, E 416) is a gum consisting primarily of carbohydrates and galacturonic acid. It is an acidic polysaccharide composed of D-galactose, L-rhamnose, D-galacturonic acid, D-glucuronic acid, and acetic acid. Ghatti gum, also known as Indian gum, is a polysaccharide extracted from the bark exudate of the tree Anogeissus latifolia (Combretaceae), which is native to India and Sri Lanka. The properties of Ghatti gum are similar to those of gum arabic. 80–90% of Ghatti gum is soluble or dispersible in water, but the aqueous solutions have a higher viscosity. Ghatti gum has the CAS number 9000-28-6 and can be purchased from suppliers such as Biosynth Carbosynth. Agar, also called agar-agar,is a galactose polymer and thus a polysaccharide capable of forming jelly. The basic units of agar are agarose and sulfated agaropectin. Agar is made from the cell walls of some algae species (especially red algae, such as Gracilaria, Gelidiopsis, Gelidium, Hypnea, and Sphaerococcus species), mainly from East Asia. Chitin is a polysaccharide composed of acetylglucosamine units (more precisely: 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-glucopyranose, or N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, abbreviated to GlcNAc). The acetylglucosamine (LQKHLWHQ^VLQG^GXUFK^ȕ-1,4-glycosidic bonds. Chitin can therefore be regarded as a variant of cellulose in which the hydroxy groups in position 2 of the monomer units have been replaced by acetamido groups. Chitosan, which can also be called poliglusam or poly-D-glucosamine or polyglucosamine, is a naturally occurring biopolymer derived from the – DXV^ȕ-1,Chitosan is derived from chitin, composed of 4-glycosidically linked N-acetylglucosamine residues (more precisely, 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-ȕ-D-glucopyranose residues), and is thus, like chitin, a polyaminosaccharide. To produce chitosan, chitin is deacetylated, so that the molecule ultimately consists of only approximately 2,000 linearly linked 2-amino-2-deoxy-ȕ-D-glucopyranose or glucosamine monomers. Gum arabic (also gum arabic and translated as Arabic gum) is the gum extracted from the exudate of various acacia trees and species found in Africa, such as the gum arabic tree (Senegalia senegal), the gum arabic acacia (Vachellia nilotica), the seyal acacia (Vachellia seyal), and Vachellia tortilis, Vachellia gummifera, Vachellia karroo, and the terrible acacia (Vachellia horrida). Gellan belongs to the linear polysaccharides and consists of several different building blocks. It consists of a rhamnose,one glucuronic acid and two glucose basic units, which are esterified with acetic acid and glyceric acid. The glucuronic acid exists as a mixed potassium, calcium, sodium, and magnesium salt. The molar mass is approximately 500,000 g / mol. The guar bean (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba), also called guar or bush bean, is a cultivated plant in the legume family (Fabaceae or Leguminosae), subfamily Faboideae. It is closely related to several other field crops called "beans." The most important product of the plant is guar gum (also called guar, guar meal, or guar gum), which consists mainly of the polysaccharide guar. To produce guar gum, the outer layers and the germ are separated from the seed before it is ground. Tamarind kernel flour is the product made from the seeds of the tamarind. These contain complex carbohydrates (polysaccharides or hydrocolloids),which are used primarily as gelling and thickening agents. Tamarind seed flour can be isolated by extraction with hot water and subsequent drying. The main components of these polysaccharides, in addition to arabinose, are primarily galactose, xylose, and glucose ("grape sugar"). Locust bean gum is a polysaccharide consisting largely of galactose (20%) and mannose (80%). Particularly intense and natural colors were obtained with oxidative coloring agents containing isatin (a) and at least one polymer (b) selected from the group consisting of xanthan, algin, carrageenan, cetyl hydroxyethyl cellulose, carboxymethylcellulose, and their physiologically acceptable salts. Therefore, the use of polymers from this specific group is very particularly preferred. Within the scope of a further very particularly preferred embodiment, an agent according to the invention is characterized in that it contains at least one polymer (b) selected from the group consisting of xanthan, algin,Contains carrageenan, cetyl hydroxyethyl cellulose, carboxymethylcellulose, and their physiologically acceptable salts. Physiologically acceptable salts of the polymers (b) are all salts that can be applied to the body under physiological conditions in the cosmetic field. Particularly suitable physiologically acceptable salts are, in particular, the sodium salts, the potassium salts, and the ammonium salts of the polymers (b). The polymer(s) (b) are preferably used in certain quantity ranges in the agent according to the invention. The agent preferably contains—based on the total weight of the agent—one or more polymers (b) in a total amount of 0.01 to 10.0 wt.%, preferably 0.1 to 5.0 wt.%, more preferably 0.2 to 2.5 wt.%, and very particularly preferably 0.3 to 1.5 wt.%. In a further very particularly preferred embodiment, an agent according to the invention is characterized in thatthat it contains – based on the total weight of the agent – ​​one or more polymers (b) in a total amount of 0.01 to 10.0 wt. %, preferably 0.1 to 5.0 wt. %, more preferably 0.2 to 2.5 wt. %, and most preferably 0.3 to 1.5 wt. %. Developer-type oxidation dye precursors (a) Oxidative colorants contain oxidation dye precursors, so-called developers and couplers, for the formation of the color. Developers and couplers diffuse separately into the keratin fibers and, under the influence of ammonia as an alkalizing agent and an oxidizing agent (usually hydrogen peroxide), form the actual dyes in a chemical reaction with one another. Depending on the amount of oxidizing agent used, the keratin fibers are lightened to a greater or lesser extent during the coloring process, since the oxidizing agent not only initiates the dye formation process of developers and couplers,but also the hair's own pigments (melanins) are oxidatively destroyed. Depending on the amounts of the oxidation dye precursors and the oxidizing agent used, the oxidative coloring can therefore primarily be a coloring (with a high dye content) or primarily a lightening (with a high oxidizing agent content). In the latter case, the oxidation dye precursors are used primarily to shade the lightening result. The oxidative coloring agents according to the invention particularly preferably contain, in addition to isatin (a), at least one oxidation dye precursor of the developer type (c), also referred to as developer for short. Particularly suitable oxidation dye precursors of the developer type are selected from the group consisting of p-toluenediamine, 2-methoxymethyl-p-phenylenediamine, 2-(2-hydroxyethyl)-p-phenylenediamine, N,N-bis-(2-hydroxyethyl)-p-phenylenediamine,p-Phenylenediamine and their physiologically acceptable salts. In a particularly preferred embodiment, an agent according to the invention is therefore characterized in that it contains at least one oxidation dye precursor of the developer type (c) selected from the group consisting of p-toluenediamine, 2-methoxymethyl-p-phenylenediamine, 2-(2-hydroxyethyl)-p-phenylenediamine, N,N-bis-(2-hydroxyethyl)-p-phenylenediamine, p-phenylenediamine, and their physiologically acceptable salts. p-Toluenediamine is alternatively also referred to as 2,5-toluenediamine, p-toluenediamine (abbreviation: PTD), 2,5-diaminotoluene, 2-methyl-p-phenylenediamine, or 2,5-diaminomethylbenzene. PTD has the CAS number 95-70-5. 2-Methoxymethyl-p-phenylenediamine is alternatively known as 2-methoxymethyl-1,4-benzenediamine and has the CAS number 337906-36-2 in its free base form. 2-(2-Hydroxyethyl)-p-phenylenediamine is alternatively known as 2-(2,5-Diaminophenyl)ethanol and, in the form of its free base, has the CAS number 93841-24-8. N,N-Bis-(2-hydroxyethyl)-p-phenylenediamine, in the form of its free base, has the CAS number 7575-35-1. Using an oxidative dye containing a developer (c) from the aforementioned group with the basic structure of 1,4-diaminobenzene, hair could be dyed with very high intensity in natural shades, particularly dark brown, medium brown, and dark blonde. What was particularly surprising was that the hair could be dyed in a shade that was particularly similar to the shade obtained with a dye containing the classic combination of PDT and resorcinol. The agents which have proven particularly suitable for achieving the object of the invention are those which contain at least one oxidation dye precursor of developer type (c) which is selected from the group consisting of p-toluenediamine,2-Methoxymethyl-p-phenylenediamine and their physiologically acceptable salts. In a particularly preferred embodiment, an agent according to the invention is therefore characterized in that it contains at least one oxidation dye precursor of developer type (c) selected from the group consisting of p-toluenediamine, 2-methoxymethyl-p-phenylenediamine and their physiologically acceptable salts. For the formation of shades with a reddish natural tone range, the agent according to the invention can also contain other developers (c). Developers from the group consisting of 4-amino-3-methylphenol, p-aminophenol, 4,5-Diamino-1-(2-hydroxyethyl)pyrazole and their physiologically acceptable salts. These developers can be used either as a standalone group or together with one or more developers having a basic structure of p-phenylenediamine. In a further preferred embodiment, an agent according to the invention is therefore characterized in that it contains at least one oxidation dye precursor of developer type (c) selected from the group consisting of 4-amino-3-methylphenol, p-aminophenol, 4,5-diamino-1-(2-hydroxyethyl)pyrazole, and their physiologically acceptable salts. In a further particularly preferred embodiment, an agent according to the invention is therefore characterized in that it contains at least one oxidation dye precursor of developer type (c) which is selected from the group consisting of p-toluenediamine, 2-methoxymethyl-p-phenylenediamine, 2-(2-hydroxyethyl)-p-phenylenediamine, N,N-bis-(2-hydroxyethyl)-p-phenylenediamine,p-Phenylenediamine, 4-amino-3-methylphenol, p-aminophenol, 4,5-diamino-1-(2-hydroxyethyl)pyrazole, and their physiologically acceptable salts. The developers of the above-mentioned groups can be used in the agent according to the invention in the form of their free base or in the form of their physiologically acceptable salts. A physiologically acceptable salt is understood to be a salt of the developer that is well tolerated by the user under physiological conditions, i.e., during application of the agent. Physiologically acceptable salts are, in particular, the chlorides, bromides, sulfates, and hemisulfates of the developers (c). In a further particularly preferred embodiment, an agent according to the invention is therefore characterized in that it contains at least one oxidation dye precursor of developer type (c) which is selected from the group consisting of p-toluenediamine, p-toluenediamine sulfate, p-toluenediamine chloride, p-toluenediamine bromide,2-Methoxymethyl-p-phenylenediamine, 2-methoxymethyl-p-phenylenediamine sulfate, 2-methoxymethyl-p-phenylenediamine chloride and 2-methoxymethyl-p-phenylenediamine bromide, , 4,5-diamino-1-(2-hydroxyethyl)pyrazole chloride, 4,5-diamino-1-(2-hydroxyethyl)pyrazole bromide and , 4,5-diamino-1-(2-hydroxyethyl)pyrazole sulfate. Depending on the desired color outcome, it may further be preferred if the agent additionally contains one or more further oxidation dye precursors of the developer type, which are selected from the group bis-(2-hydroxy-5-aminophenyl)methane, 1,3-bis-(2,5-diaminophenoxy)propan-2-ol, N,N'-bis-(4-aminophenyl)-1,4-diazacycloheptane, 1,10-bis-(2,5-diaminophenyl)-1,4,7,10-tetraoxadecane, 4-amino-2-aminomethylphenol, 4-amino-2-(1,2-dihydroxyethyl)phenol, 4-amino-2-(diethylaminomethyl)phenol, 2,4,5,6-tetraaminopyrimidine, 4-hydroxy-2,5,6-triaminopyrimidine, 2-hydroxy-4,5,6-triaminopyrimidine, 2,3-Diamino-6,7-dihydro-1H,5H-pyrazolo[1,2-a]pyrazol-1-one and their physiologically acceptable salts.

The agent preferably contains - based on the total weight of the agent - one or more oxidation dye precursors of developer type (c) in a total amount of 0.001 to 10.0 wt.%, preferably from 0.01 to 6.0 wt.%, more preferably from 0.1 to 5.0 wt.% and most preferably from 0.15 to 4.7 wt.%. In a particularly preferred embodiment, an agent according to the invention is therefore characterized in that it contains - based on the total weight of the agent - one or more oxidation dye precursors of developer type (c) in a total amount of 0.001 to 10.0 wt.%, preferably from 0.01 to 6.0 wt.%, more preferably from 0.1 to 5.0 wt.% and most preferably from 0.15 to 4.7 wt.%.7 wt.% further couplers (d) in the oxidative dye. For precise shading and / or fine adjustment of the desired color tone, the oxidative dye may contain further couplers (d) in addition to isatin (a) and optionally the developer-type oxidation dye precursor(s) (c). Other very suitable couplers can be selected, for example, from the group of 3-aminophenol, 5-amino-2-methylphenol, 3-amino-2-chloro-6-methylphenol, 2-hydroxy-4-aminophenoxyethanol, 5-amino-4-chloro-2-methylphenol, 5-(2-hydroxyethyl)-amino-2-methylphenol, 2,4-dichloro-3-aminophenol, 2-aminophenol, 3-phenylenediamine, 2-(2,4-diaminophenoxy)ethanol, 1,3-bis(2,4-diaminophenoxy)propane, 1-methoxy-2-amino-4-(2-hydroxyethylamino)benzene, 1,3-bis(2,4-diaminophenyl)propane, 2,6-bis(2'-hydroxyethylamino)-1-methylbenzene, 1-amino-3-bis-(2-hydroxyethyl)aminobenzene, 2-amino-3-hydroxypyridine, 3-amino-2-methylamino-6-methoxypyridine, 2,6-dihydroxy-3,4-dimethylpyridine, 3,5-diamino-2,6-dimethoxypyridine, 1-phenyl-3-methylpyrazol-5-one, 1-naphthol, 1,5-dihydroxynaphthalene, 2,7-dihydroxynaphthalene, 1,7-dihydroxynaphthalene, 1,8-dihydroxynaphthalene, 4-hydroxyindole, 6-hydroxyindole, 7-hydroxyindole, 4-hydroxyindoline, 6-hydroxyindoline, 7-hydroxyindoline or mixtures of these compounds or their physiologically acceptable salts.

For this reason, the use of couplers (d) from this group is explicitly very particularly preferred. In an explicitly very particularly preferred embodiment, a composition according to the invention is therefore characterized in that it contains at least one oxidation dye precursor of coupler type (d) selected from the group consisting of 3-aminophenol, 5-amino-2-methylphenol, 3-amino-2-chloro-6-methylphenol, 2-amino-3-hydroxypyridine, 1-methoxy-2-amino-4-(2-hydroxyethylamino)benzene, 6-hydroxyindole or mixtures of these compounds or their physiologically acceptable salts.

Therefore, couplers from the resorcinol group are understood to include, in particular, resorcinol, 2-methylresorcinol, and 4-chlororesorcinol. In the agents of the present application, these couplers are to be dispensed with, therefore it is preferred if the total amount of the oxidation dye precursors of the coupler type contained in the agent is from the group of resorcinols,in particular from the group of resorcinol, 2-methylresorcinol and 4-chlororesorcinol, is below 0.1 wt.%, preferably below 0.05 wt.%, particularly preferably below 0.01 wt.% and very particularly preferably 0 wt.%.

Alkalizing agent Dyeing processes on keratin fibers usually take place in an alkaline environment. In order to protect the keratin fibers and also the skin as much as possible, setting a pH value that is too high is not desirable. Therefore, it is preferred if the pH value of the ready-to-use agent is between 6 and 11, in particular between 7 and 10.5. The pH values ​​within the meaning of the present invention are pH valueswhich were measured at a temperature of 22°C.

The pH values ​​within the meaning of the present invention are pH values ​​measured at a temperature of 22°C.

Non-ionic surfactants contain, for example, a polyol group, a polyalkylene glycol ether group or a combination of polyol and polyglycol ether groups as a hydrophilic group.Such compounds are, for example, - addition products of 1 to 50 mol of ethylene oxide and / or 0 to 5 mol of propylene oxide with linear and branched fatty alcohols having 8 to 30 C atoms, such as, for example, lauryl, myristyl, cetyl, but also stearyl, isostearyl and oleyl alcohol, with fatty acids having 8 to 30 C atoms and with alkylphenols having 8 to 15 C atoms in the alkyl group, - addition products of 1 to 50 mol of ethylene oxide and / or 0 to 5 mol of propylene oxide, end-capped with a methyl or C2-C6 alkyl radical, with linear and branched fatty alcohols having 8 to 30 C atoms, with fatty acids having 8 to 30 C atoms and with alkylphenols having 8 to 15 C atoms in the alkyl group, such as, for example, which is sold under the name Dehydol. ® LS, Dehydol ® LT (Cognis) available types, - polyglycerol esters and alkoxylated polyglycerol esters, such as poly(3)glycerol diisostearate (trade product: Lameform £TGI (Henkel)) and poly(2)glycerol polyhydroxystearate (trade product: Dehymuls £ PGPH (Henkel)). - Polyol fatty acid esters, such as the commercial product Hydagen ®HSP (Cognis) or Sovermol types (Cognis), - higher alkoxylated, preferably propoxylated and especially ethoxylated, mono-, di- and triglycerides, such as glycerol monolaurate + 20 ethylene oxide and glycerol monostearate + 20 ethylene oxide, - amine oxides, - hydroxy mixed ethers, - sorbitan fatty acid esters and addition products of ethylene oxide with sorbitan fatty acid esters such as the polysorbates and sorbitan monolaurate + 20 mol ethylene oxide (EO), - sugar fatty acid esters and addition products of ethylene oxide with sugar fatty acid esters, - addition products of ethylene oxide with fatty acid alkanolamides and fatty amines, - fatty acid N-alkylglucamides, - alkylphenols and alkylphenol alkoxylates having 6 to 21, in particular 6 to 15 carbon atoms in the alkyl chain and 1 to 30 Ethylene oxide and / or propylene oxide units. Preferred representatives of this class are, for example, nonylphenol + 9 EO and octylphenol + 8 EO; - Alkyl polyglycosides corresponding to the general formula RO-(Z) x, where R is alkyl, Z is sugar, and x is the number of sugar units. The alkyl polyglycosides usable according to the invention can contain only one specific alkyl radical R. However, these compounds are usually prepared from natural fats and oils or mineral oils. In this case, the alkyl radicals R are mixtures depending on the starting compounds or the respective processing of these compounds. Suitable nonionic surfactants are particularly C8-C22 alkyl mono- and oligoglycosides and their ethoxylated analogues. In particular, the non-ethoxylated compounds have proven particularly suitable.

Particularly preferred nonionic surface-active substances are substances that are commercially available in pure form as solids or liquids due to their ease of processing. The definition of purity in this context does not refer to chemically pure compounds.Rather, especially in the case of naturally derived products, mixtures of different homologs can be used, for example, with different alkyl chain lengths, as is the case with products based on natural fats and oils. Alkoxylated products also typically contain mixtures of different degrees of alkoxylation. In this context, the term purity refers rather to the fact that the selected substances should preferably be free of solvents, suspending agents, and other accompanying substances.

Process for the oxidative coloring of keatin fibers The oxidative coloring agent according to the invention of the first subject matter of the invention is outstandingly suitable for use in corresponding coloring processes. A further subject matter of the present invention is therefore a process for the oxidative coloring of keratin fibers, in particular human hair, in which an agent as disclosed in detail in the description of the first subject matter of the invention is applied to the keratin fibers and rinsed out again after a contact time.While the agent is acting on the fiber, it can be advantageous to support the coloring process by applying heat. The heat can be applied using an external heat source, such as warm air from a hot air blower, or, particularly when coloring hair on a live test subject, using the test subject's body temperature.
