Abstract
Abstract 2-Substituted para-aminophenols of general formula: ##STR1## where Y denotes oxygen or sulphur and R denotes a C 1 -C 6 alkyl, C 1 -C 6 hydroxyalkyl or C 1 -C 6 haloalkyl or a C 2 -C 6 polyhydroxyalkyl, provided that when Y=O, R is not methyl or ethyl and when Y=S, R is not ethyl; and dye composition containing one or more compounds of formula (I) where Y denotes an oxygen or sulphur atom and R is C 1 -C 6 alkyl, C 1 -C 6 hydroxyalkyl, C 1 -C 6 haloalkyl or C 2 -C 6 polyhydroxyalkyl.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 15
Claim 1
Independent Claim
112 words
A dye composition for dyeing human hair, comprising, in an aqueous carrier, one or more compounds of formula (I'): ##STR9## or one or more salts of a compound of formula (I') and either one or more oxidation dye precursors, one or more couplers, or one or more oxidation dye precursors and one or more couplers, wherein: Y' is an oxygen or sulfur atom, R' is a C 1 -C 6 alkyl, C 1 -C 6 hydroxyalkyl, C 2 -C 6 polyhydroxyalkyl or C 1 -C 6 haloalkyl radical; and said oxidation dye precursors are selected from the group consisting of para-phenylenediamines and paraaminophenols other than those of formula (I'), ortho-phenylenediamines and ortho-aminophenols.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
112 words
A dye composition for dyeing human hair, comprising, in an aqueous carrier, one or more compounds of formula (I'): ##STR9## or one or more salts of a compound of formula (I') and either one or more oxidation dye precursors, one or more couplers, or one or more oxidation dye precursors and one or more couplers, wherein: Y' is an oxygen or sulfur atom, R' is a C 1 -C 6 alkyl, C 1 -C 6 hydroxyalkyl, C 2 -C 6 polyhydroxyalkyl or C 1 -C 6 haloalkyl radical; and said oxidation dye precursors are selected from the group consisting of para-phenylenediamines and paraaminophenols other than those of formula (I'), ortho-phenylenediamines and ortho-aminophenols.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
33 words
The composition of claim 1, wherein the compound of formula (I') is selected from the group consisting of 4-amino-2-[(methylthio)methyl] phenol, 4-amino-2-[(β-hydroxyethylthio)methyl] phenol and 4-amino-2-methoxymethylphenol; 4-amino-2-ethoxymethylphenol, 4-amino-2-[(β-hydroxyethoxy)methyl] phenol, 4-amino-2-[(β, γ-dihydroxypropylthio)methyl] phenol and 4-amino-2-[(2',2',2'-trifluoroethoxy)methyl] phenol.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
35 words
The composition of claim 1, wherein the coupler is selected from the group consisting meta-diphenols, meta-aminophenols, meta-phenylenediamines, meta-acylaminophenols, meta-ureido-phenols, meta-carbalkoxy-aminophenols, alpha-naphthol, couplers containing an active methylene group, 3,4-methylenedioxyphenol, 3,4-methylene-dioxyaniline, 2-bromo-4, 5-methylenedioxyphenol, 2-chloro-4,5-methylenedioxyphenol and 2-methoxy-4,5-methylenedioxy aniline.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
12 words
The composition of claim 1, further comprising one or more direct dyes.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
28 words
The composition of claim 4, wherein the direct dyes are selected from the group consisting of azo dyes, anthraquinone dyes and the nitro derivatives of the benzene series.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
22 words
The composition of claim 4, wherein the concentration of the compound of formula (I') is from 0.02 to 6 % by weight.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
32 words
A composition of claim 1, wherein the total concentration of said oxidation dye precursors and couplers is from 0.15 to 7% by weight relative to the total weight of the dye composition.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
38 words
The composition of claim 1, further comprising adjuvants selected from the group consisting of anionic, cationic, nonionic and amphoteric surface-active agents and mixtures thereof, organic solvents, thickening agents, antioxidants, penetrating agents, sequestering agents, buffers, perfumes and alkalifying agents.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
14 words
A composition of claim 1, that has a pH of from 8 to 11.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
24 words
The composition of claim 3, wherein said couplers possessing an active methylene group are selected from the group consisting of β-keto compounds and pyrazolones.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
55 words
A process for dyeing human hair, comprising: mixing a sufficient amount of an oxidizing solution with the composition of claim 1, wherein said amount is sufficient to oxidize the oxidation dye precursors; and immediately applying said mixture to hair for 10 to 40 minutes and at a temperature between the ambient temperature and 40° C.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
127 words
A multi-step process for dyeing hair comprising, (i) in the first step, applying a sufficient quantity of a composition of claim 11 that contains one or more compounds of formula (I') and one or more of said oxidation dye precursors, but that does not contain said couplers, to the hair to dye it; and (ii) in a second step, applying to the hair a second composition containing one or more couplers and a sufficient amount of an oxidizing agent to oxidize said oxidizing dye precursors, wherein the oxidizing agent is either included in said solution or is applied to the hair following said second step; wherein said compositions are contacted with the hair for 10 40 minutes at a temperature between the ambient temperature and 40° C.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim
22 words
