PCT No. PCT/EP96/00959 Sec. 371 Date Sep. 15, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Sep. 15, 1997 PCT Filed Mar. 7, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO96/29302 PCT Pub. Date Sep. 26, 1996There are described liposomogenic UV absorbers, comprising a hydrophilic head group (=Z), a spacer (=W), a UV chromophore (Q) having an absorption in the range from 285 to 400 nm and at least one hydrophobic tail group (=A) of the formula (1), in which A1 and A2, independently of one another, are a hydrophobic radical, Q is a UV chromophore, W is an organic radical, Z1 and Z2, independently of one another, are a hydrophilic radical, n1 and n2, independently of one another, are a number from 0 to 4, n1=n2=0 not being additionally included, p is 1 or 2, q is a number from 0 to 3, r1 is 1 or 2, r2 is 0 or 1, and s1 is a number from 1 to 3. The liposomogenic UV absorbers according to the invention are preferably used as sunscreen agents in cosmetic preparations. They are capable of self-organization into bimolecular layers, and can thereby penetrate into the stratum corneum to a high extent and behave there in an extremely wash-resistant manner. |
