Description

SPECIFICATION Compounds for the growth of hair and cosmetic formulations containing such compounds The present invention relates to novel salts useful as activators for the growth of hair, a process for the preparation of the said salts and the formulations which contain them as active ingredients.
Products are already known which have been proposed for the treatment of changes of the scalp, these having an influence on the aesthetics of the person. Even if they have a doubtful result as regards the conservation of the head of hair, these products provide advantages in counteracting alopecia, baldness and seborrheic conditions, when they are employed at the time of the commencement of the pathological manifestations.
The formulations of such products are compounded with a hydro-alcoholic-glyceric medium which is balanced so as to favour the activity of the active ingredients, formed by active ingredients such as camphor, thymol, colloidal sulphur, resorcin, quinine salts, pilocarpine, acetyl resorcin, bactericides, fungicides and microergics (Vitamin A, Vitamin B6, pantothenic acid, oestrogens, placentary extracts, heparinoids).
In the cosmetic filed, there are also used other products capable of intervening in respect of damage to the hair follicle due to aesthetic treatments (permanent waving, bleaching, dyeing) or related to constitutional or ambient factors.
These products, of which the efficacy has been insufficiently documented, comprise first of all the proteic lysates of prolamines and scleroproteins (horny material, hair, feathers, collagen, horsehair) which, on account of the affinity for the elements of cornea production, act by forming a compensatory thin layer, capable of repairing mechanically the processes of wear. From a therapeutic point of view, the existing formulations have to be considered as means which have a simply symptomatic signification or a generally preventive effect.
A topical or local effect on the scalp has recently been shown in the case of a known medicament with a cradio-vascular effect, this being Minoxidyl or 6amino1 ,2-dihydro-1 -hydroxy-2-imino-4-piperidinopyrimidine (U.S. Patent No. 3382247).
The present invention is concerned with salts of the general formula I:
in which R represent hydrogen or an S03(-) group; R1 represents a piperidin-l -yl, 3-hydroxypiperidin-l -yl, 4-hydroxypiperidin-1 -yl or 4-carboxybutylamino group, with the condition that, when R is hydrogen, R1 is not piperidin-1 -yl; When R is hydrogen A represents a compound of acidic nature, selected from the group which comprises N-acetylcysteine, thiosalicyclic acid, S-carboxy-cysteine and 2-benzoylmercapto-propionylglycine; when R is an -S03(-) group, A represents, on the contrary, a compound of basic nature which is selected from the group which comprises arginine, methyl cysteine, lysine or the dimethyl ester of carboxy-cysteine; and A groups derived from amino acids may be in the L, D or D,L form.
Compounds I have shown a stimulating activity for the growth of hair.
The components having a pyrimidinic structure in the salts forming the subject of the present invention, i.e.
6-amino-i ,2-dihydro-1 -hydroxy-2-imino-4- (3-piperidinol) pyrimidine, 6-amino-i ,2-dihydro-1 -hydroxy-2- imino-4- (4-piperidinol) pyrimidine, 6-amino-I -hydroxy-2-imino-4- (4-carboxybutylamino) pyrimidine and 2,6-diamino-4-(1 -piperidinyl)-1 -(sulphoxy) pyrimidine, are the metabolites of Minoxidyl and are deprived of activity on the vascular system, with the exception of the 2,6-diamino-4- (1 -piperidinyl) -i - (sulphoxy) pyrimidine.
It has now surprisingly been found that all the metabolites retain the same activity on the hair as that of Minoxidyl and that the novel salts of the metabolites forming the subject of the present invention show an action superior to that given by Minoxidyl by itself, in equivalent quantities, in the same cosmetic formulations.
As a consequence of prolonged daily use, for 2 to 3 months, we have found that the cosmetic formulations of the invention make it possible to obtain satisfactory responses ir; the treatment of different forms of alopecia and in the control of the functional states of "scaling" of the hair structures which cause the progressive process of the balding.
The novel salts which are the subject of the invention are conveniently added, in proportions between 0.2 and 10%, to balms, shampoos, creams and lotions, either individually, or mixed or combined with other active substances. As well as cosmetic formulations, the invention also seeks to provide processes for obtaining each compound and its novel salts.
The inactive metabolites may be obtained by reaction of 4-chloro-2,6-diaminopyrimidine with 3- or 4-hydroxy-piperidine or 5-aminopentanoic acid in excess, followed by an oxidation with hydrogen peroxide in a methanolic solution, this giving the corresponding N-oxides which, by being heated at 60 , are transformed into the desired hydroxy derivatives.
The sulphonated active metabolite (R = S03-, R, = 1 -piperidinyl) is obtained by the reaction of the Minoxidyl in pyridine with chlorosulphonic acid at a temperature not above 5 . By distillation of the pyridine, acidification and treatment with acetonitrile, there is obtained the sulphoxy derivative.
According to the present invention, the salts of the non-vasoactive metabolites are prepared by reaction with N-acetyl cysteine, thiosalicic acid, S-carboxymethyl cysteine, or N-(2-benzoyl thiopropionyl) glycine in a molar ratio of 1:1 in a solution or suspension in solvents which are preferably formed by the Ca-C4 alcohols, possible containing water in smaller proportions, at a temperature between 1 0 C and 100"C, preferably the boiling temperature of the solvent. The desired salts are obtained by cooling the solution or by evaporating the solvent.
The salts may be obtained by adding acetone to the cooled solution or by lyophilising the aqueous solutions which contain them.
The salts of the sulphonated vasoactive metabolite are prepared by causing it to react with methyl cysteine, arginine, lysine or dimethyl S-carboxycysteine in a molar ratio of 1:1 in a solution or suspension in solvents which are preferably constituted by Cr-C4 alcohols, possible containing water in smaller proportions, at a temperature which is between 10" and 100 , preferably the boiling temperature of the solvent. The desired salts are obtained by cooling the solutions as thus obtained or by evaporating the solvent.
The salts may also be obtained by adding acetone to the cooled solution or by lyophilising the aqueous solutions which contain them.
The Examples which follow hereafter illustrate the invention, without limiting it in any way.

Local application of the compounds according to the present invention causes an acceleration of the growth of the hair or fur in rodents having alopecia induced by a chronic treatment with thallium slats. After suspension of the toxic treatment, the growth of the new fur in the zones which were attacked is found to be much faster as compared with that observed in the animals treated locally with other products in current use or in animals treated locally with equivalent quantities of Minoxidyl.
Another surprising observation concerns the effect which is shown by the salts of non-vasoactive metabolities, of which the activity, from a quantitive point of view, is shown to be more intense than that of the same Minoxidyl applied locally in equivalent quantities.
Experiments carried out on New Zealand rabbits or Bourgogne rabbits have demonstrated that the local application of the compounds according to the invention determines a consistent improvement in the speed of growth of the hair or fur in previously shaved cutaneous zones and in addition decreases the entity of the spontaneous depilation in the intact cutaneous zones. In the treated zones, previously subjected to shaving, the average speed of growth of the hair or fur is shown to be 0.3 mm/die, this being about 35% greater than that found in the untreated zones.
These observations were made with a sample of 80 rabbits. The maximum activity was observed after 45-60 days of treatment with 1 mg/die of each salt in two applications per day.
The aforementioned experiments have confirmed the surprising efficacy in the local treatment with the salts of non-vasoactive metabolities, which is greater than that which was shown when employing equivalent quantities of Minoxidyl.
