Abstract

Disclosed herein is a compound or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof of formula I: wherein Y is a C3-11 cycloalkyl and Z is straight-chain or branched C1-14 alkyl, wherein one or more CH2 groups may independently be replaced by —(CH2—O—CH2)—, —(CH2—CH2—O)—, —(O—CH2—CH2)—, C═O, —O—, —NH— and —NR—, wherein R is linear or branched C1-6 alkyl. Further disclosed are cosmetic preparations including compounds of formula I as well as uses of such compounds or preparations as hair care products.

Claims (32)

1 . A compound of formula II or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof

wherein:

Y is a C 3-11 bicycloalkyl,

L is CH 2 , and

Z is straight-chain or branched C 1-13 alkyl, wherein one or more CH 2 groups are independently replaced by —(CH 2 —O—CH 2 )—, —(CH 2 —CH 2 —O)—, —(O—CH 2 —CH 2 )—, —O—, —NH— or —NR—, wherein R is linear or branched C 1-6 alkyl.

2 . A compound according to claim 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein Y is a C 4-11 bridged bicycloalkyl.

3 . A compound according to claim 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, having formula III

wherein:

Y is a C 4-11 bicycloalkyl,

X is selected from O, NH and NR, wherein R is linear or branched C 1-6 alkyl, and

Z is straight-chain or branched C 1-12 alkyl, wherein one or more CH 2 groups may independently be replaced by —(CH 2 —O—CH 2 )—, —(CH 2 —CH 2 —O)—, —(O—CH 2 —CH 2 )—, —O—, —NH—, and —NR—, wherein R is branched or linear C 1-6 alkyl.

4 . A compound according to claim 1 having formula IV or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof

wherein:

Y is a C 5-11 bridged bicycloalkyl, and

Z is straight-chain or branched C 1-11 alkyl, wherein one or more CH 2 groups may independently be replaced by —(CH 2 —O—CH 2 )—, —(CH 2 —CH 2 —O)—, —(O—CH 2 —CH 2 )—, —O—, —NH—, and —NR—, wherein R is branched or linear C 1-6 alkyl.

5 . A compound according to claim 1 having formula V or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof

wherein:

Y is a C 5-11 bridged bicycloalkyl,

G is —(CH 2 —O—CH 2 )—, —(CH 2 —CH 2 —O)—, —(O—CH 2 —CH 2 )—,

n is 1 to 4, and

m is 0 to 8.

6 . A compound according to claim 5 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof wherein

either Y is bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane, n is 2 or 3, and m is 0, 1, 2 or 3;

or Y is bicyclo[2.2.2]octane, n is 3, and m is 0.

7 . A compound according to claim 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein Y is selected from bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane, bicyclo[2.1.1]hexane, bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane, bicyclo[3.1.1]heptane, bicyclo[2.2.2]octane, and bicyclo[3.2.1]octane.

8 . Cosmetic preparations comprising at least one compound according to claim 1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

9 . Cosmetic preparations according to claim 8 further comprising at least one cosmetic additive selected from the group consisting of surfactants, oil components, emulsifiers, pearlescent waxes, consistency-enhancing agents, thickeners, superfatting agents, stabilizers, polymers, silicone compounds, fats, waxes, lecithins, phospholipids, UV light protection factors, humectants, biogenic agents, antioxidants, deodorants, antiperspirants, antidandruff agents, film-forming agents, swelling agents, insect repellents, self-tanning agents, tyrosine inhibitors (depigmentation agents), hydrotropes, solubilizers, preservatives, perfumed oils and dyes, and mixtures thereof.

10 . Cosmetic preparations according to claim 8 further comprising a carrier.

11 . A method for treatment of keratin materials, the method comprising applying to the keratin materials a compound according to claim 1 .

12 . The method according to claim 11 wherein the keratin materials are comprised in hair.

13 . A compound according to claim 5 wherein n is 2 or 3, and m is 0 to 3.
