  • Publication number: 20150190322
    Abstract: Compositions for application and methods of application of a composition to modify hair. In one embodiment, a composition includes a compound (molecule) represented by: wherein A and B are individually selected from a hydrogen, a hydroxyl group and a halogen, with the proviso that when one of A and B is a hydroxyl group, the other of A and B is a hydrogen and when one of A and B is a halogen, the other of A and B is a halogen or a hydrogen; wherein Z is, for example, an aryl moiety; and wherein X1 and X2 are, for example, individually selected from a hydrogen and an alkyl moiety, wherein R1 and R2 are individually selected from an oxo, a hydroxyl or an ester group; wherein y is 0 or 1, x is 0 or 1 and x and y are not both 1, or a salt.

  • Publication number: 20090018204
    Abstract: A composition including a molecule of the formula: wherein y is 0 or 1, x is 0 or 1 and x and y are not both 1, Y is a radical selected from the group consisting of alkyl, halo, e.g. fluoro, chloro, etc., nitro, amino, thiol, hydroxy, alkyloxy, alkylcarboxy, halo substituted alkyl wherein the alkyl radical comprises from one to six carbon atoms, etc. and n is 0 or an integer of from 1 to 3 and R3 is ?O, —OH or —O(CO)R6 wherein R6 is as defined above or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. A method including topically applying to a dermis or hair on the dermis an amount of a composition comprising a molecule of the formula: wherein y is 0 or 1, x is 0 or 1 and x and y are not both 1, Y is a radical selected from the group consisting of alkyl, halo, e.g. fluoro, chloro, etc., nitro, amino, thiol, hydroxy, alkyloxy, alkylcarboxy, halo substituted alkyl wherein the alkyl radical comprises from one to six carbon atoms, etc.
