Abstract

Described are polymerizable high energy light absorbing compounds. The compounds absorb various wavelengths of ultraviolet and/or high energy visible light and are suitable for incorporation in various products, such as biomedical devices and ophthalmic devices.

Claims (59)

1. A method for making an ophthalmic device, the method comprising:

(a) providing a reactive mixture containing one or more device forming monomers, a radical initiator, and a compound of formula I:

wherein:

m and n are independently 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4;

T is a bond, O, or NR;

X is O, S, NR, SO, or SO 2 ;

Y is a linking group;

P g is a polymerizable group;

R at each occurrence is independently H, C 1 -C 6 alkyl, cycloalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, aryl, heteroaryl, or Y—P g ;

R 1 and R 2 , when present, are independently at each occurrence C 1 -C 6 alkyl, C 1 -C 6 alkoxy, C 1 -C 6 thioalkyl, C 3 -C 7 cycloalkyl, aryl, halo, hydroxy, amino, NR 3 R 4 , or benzyl, wherein R 3 and R 4 are independently H or C 1 -C 6 alkyl, or two adjacent R 1 or R 2 groups, together with the carbon atoms to which they are attached, combine to form a cycloalkyl or aryl ring; and

EWG is an electron withdrawing group; and

(b) polymerizing the reactive mixture to form the ophthalmic device.

2. The method of claim 1 wherein m and n are each independently 0 or 1.

3. The method of claim 1 wherein Y at each occurrence is independently alkylene, cycloalkylene, heterocycloalkylene, arylene, heteroarylene, oxaalkylene, alkylene-amide-alkylene, alkylene-amine-alkylene, or combinations thereof.

4. The method of claim 1 wherein P g comprises styryl, vinyl carbonate, vinyl ether, vinyl carbamate, N-vinyl lactam, N-vinylamide, (meth)acrylate, or (meth)acrylamide.

5. The method of claim 1 wherein X is O.

6. The method of claim 1 wherein X is S.

7. The method of claim 1 wherein EWG is cyano, amide, ester, keto, or aldehyde.

8. The method of claim 1 wherein EWG is cyano.
