6 1. STABLE SOLUBLE SALTS OF PHENYLBENZMDAZOLE SULFONCACD ATPHSAT OR BELOW 7.O CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION This application is the National Stage of International Application No. PCT/EP2007/ filed on Jul. 9, 2007, the entire contents of which is hereby incorporated by refer CCC. The invention concerns preparations, particularly cosmetic or pharmaceutical/dermatological preparations, containing phenylbenzimidazole Sulfonic acid (i.e. 2-phenylbenzimida Zole-5-Sulfonic acid) neutralised with basic amino acids Such as arginine, lysine, ornithine and histidine so that the ph of the preparation can be at or below 7.0 without incurring crystallisation of the phenylbenzimidazole sulfonic acid. UV rays are classified according to wavelength as UVA rays ( nm, UVA-I: nm, UVA-II: nm) or UVB rays ( nm). UV rays can cause acute and chronic damage to the skin, the type of damage depending on the wavelength of the radiation. For instance, UVB radiation can cause Sunburn (erythema) extending to most severe burn ing of the skin; reduction in enzyme activities, weakening of the immune system, disturbances of the DNA structure and changes in the cell membrane are also known as harmful effects of UVB rays. UVA rays penetrate into deeper layers of the skin where they can accelerate the aging process of the skin. The shorter wave UVA-II radiation additionally contrib utes to the development of sunburn. Moreover, UVA radiation can trigger phototoxic or photoallergic skin reactions. Very frequent and unprotected irradiation of the skin by Sunlight leads to a loss of skin elasticity and to increased development of wrinkles. In extreme cases, pathogenic changes in the skin extending to skin cancer are observed. To attenuate these negative effects of UV radiation mate rials which absorb or reflect UV light, generally called UV absorbers, are used in cosmetic or pharmacological prepara tions. The UV absorbers are classified as UVA and UVB absorbers depending on the location of their absorption maxima; if a UV absorber absorbs both UVA and UVB, it is referred to as a UV-A/B broadband absorber. Modern Sun protection products contain mixtures of UV filters to absorb both UVB and UVA radiation and there is a lot of research done into finding new UV absorbers but this is very costly, not only for the cost of the R&D effort but for the extensive toxicological testing and registration process required to allow the new filters to be used. It is therefore desirable that the way currently allowed safe and effective UV absorbing materials used for cosmetic or pharmacologi cal preparations be extended. In this respect, one of the most efficient UVB absorbing materials that has been in commer cial use since 1934, phenylbenzimidazole Sulfonic acid, has a major disadvantage in the way that it is currently formulated. It is very insoluble in water (0.25% w/w); therefore it must be neutralised with a hard base, such as for example but not limited to, sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide, or with amines, such as for example but not limited to, triethanola mine oraminomethylpropanol or trishydroxyaminomethane, in order to render the UV filter soluble in a cosmetic or pharmacological preparation. Importantly, if phenylbenzimi dazole sulfonic acid is not sufficiently neutralised it will form crystals in the cosmetic or pharmacological preparation (see FIG. 1) rendering it less effective and giving the preparations an unacceptable sandy or grainy feel. Crystal formation starts at ph 7.0; generally, the ph of a cosmetic formulation com US 8,440,172 B prising phenylbenzimidazole Sulfonic acid has to remain above 6.8 in order to prevent the free acid from recrystallising (W. Johncock, Cosmetic & Toiletries Magazine, September 1999, pages 75-82). This restriction has prevented the use of phenylbenzimidazole sulfonic acid in formulations with ph at or below 7.0, in particular in the many cosmetic or phar macological preparations formulations with a ph from 5.5 to 7.0 and 6.0 to 7.0. It is therefore desirable to find a way that allows cosmetic or pharmacological preparations to be for mulated with phenylbenzimidazole sulfonic acid at a ph of or below 7.0 in order to broaden its application. U.S. Pat. No. 6,153,176 indicated that low ph formulations containing phenylbenzimidazole Sulfonic acid could be pre pared in which 75% to 95% of the acid remains in its non neutralised form, but the authors did not indicate whether the acids recrystallised or not. In the formulation examples given in the patent we found that the acid did in fact recrystallise. Surprisingly and unexpectedly we have found that when basic amino acid, preferably, but not restricted to, arginine, histidine, ornithine and lysine or their derivatives are used to neutralise phenylbenzimidazole sulfonic acid, the ph can be taken to below 7.0 and down to as low as 5.5, wherein best stabilisation of phenylbenzimidazole Sulfonic acid in cos metic compositions is achieved by a ph down to 6.0 without causing recrystallisation of the phenylbenzimidazole Sul fonic acid. Stabilisation in the meaning of the present inven tion is achieved when a formulation comprising phenylben Zimidazole sulfonic acid (all phenylbenzimidazole sulfonic acid being originally in non-crystalline, preferably dissolved, form) is free from phenylbenzimidazole sulfonic acid crystals at least after storage of the formulation at 20 C. for two days or more, preferably for five days or more. The isoelectric point of otheramino acids (see table 1) preclude the formation of salts when simply mixed with phenylbenzimidazole sul fonic acid. TABLE 1 Isoelectric points and pk values of some preferred basic amino acids. Isoelectric pk pk2 Amino Acid Point (C-COOH) (C-NH) Histidine O 9.33 Lysine Arginine EP teaches the use of the basic amino acid arginine and its derivatives as a precursor of nitrogen mon oxide (NO) to promote melanogenesis in photoprotective skin care products. It does not teach the use of arginine or its derivatives as a suitable base to neutralise phenylbenzimida Zole sulfonic acid to obtain a ph below 7.0. EP teaches the use of the combination of arginine or its salts, amides or esters with folic acid, urea and antioxi dants with or without the presence of UV absorbing materials for the prophylaxis and/or treatment of dry and scaly skin and of aged skin, in particular of skin damaged by endogenous or chronological aging. It does not teach the use of arginine or its derivatives as a suitable base to neutralise phenylbenzimida Zole sulfonic acid to obtain a ph below 7.0. FF teaches that in contrast to the use of azelaic acid alone, when azelaic acid is neutralised with arginine or lysine to a ph between 5 and 7 it obtains antioxidative prop erties and is useful to protect the skin against UV induced oxidative stress. It does not teach the use of arginine or its

7 3 derivatives as a suitable base to neutralise phenylbenzimida Zole sulfonic acid to obtain a ph below 7.0. U.S. Pat. No. 6,365,167 teaches the use of arginine neutra lised para aminobenzoic acid (PABA) to treat wounds, lac erations, burns and ulcers of human and animal skin. The use of arginine is not to improve the solubility of PABA and in particular the patent does not teach the use of arginine to render salts of PABA soluble at phs below 7.0, nor does. it teach the use of arginine or its derivatives as a suitable base to neutralise phenylbenzimidazole sulfonic acid to obtain a ph below 7.0. KR B teaches the use of arginine with p-ami nobenzoate, salicylate, cinnamate and benzophenonone UV filters but not phenylbenzimidazole sulfonic acid, to control the colour of cosmetic compositions when exposed to UV light. The ph of these compositions is controlled by the use of either citric acid or triethanolamine to ph 5.0 to 8.0. Arginine is not used as a neutralising agent in this case. EP teaches the use of amines including trietha nolamine and amino acids to neutralise salicylic acid and its derivatives to render them more soluble in a formulation and as alternative emulsifiers to traditional ones used. The docu ment does not indicate that the use of basic amino acids improves the solubility of salicylic acid and its derivatives over otheramines such as triethanolamine and trishydroxym ethylaminomethane, though they do indicate that the emul sion is more fine when lysine is used as the base. The inven tion does not teach that the use of basic amino acids would prevent the recystallisation of phenylbenzimidazolesulfonic acid. GB teaches the use of arginine and lysine in association with fatty to produce substances which have anti irritation, antioxidant and emulsification properties. It does not teach that the use of basic amino acids would prevent the recystallisation of phenylbenzimidazolesulfonic acid. JP teaches the use of basic amino acids, lysine, arginine, ornithine, histidine to stabilise urea against decom position, it does not teach that the use of basic amino acids would prevent the recystallisation of phenylbenzimidazole Sulfonic acid. DE teaches the use of histidine in cosmetic formulations to prevent loss of urocanic acid from the skin. The patent mentions that the formulations can contain UVA and UVB filters including sulfonated water soluble salts such as the Sodium potassium or triethanolamine salts of phenyl benzimidazole sulfonic acid. Histidine is not used in the formulations as a neutralisation agent in the formulation since the amounts of histidine used (0.7 to 0.4 equivalents) is far below those to neutralise phenylbenzimdazole sulfonic acid to a ph of 6.0 to 7.0. The only formulation example in the patent which indicate a ph is indicated is example 9 which does not contain any UV filter. The patent does not teach the use of histidine to prevent the recystallisation of phenylben Zimidazole sulfonic acid at phs below 7.0. GB describes the use of basic amino acids to neutralise aqueous solutions of vinylether/maleic anhydride polymers to a ph of 3 to 9 to avoid skin irritation associated with other bases such as mineral bases or triethanolamine, it does not teach that the use of basic amino acids would prevent the recystallisation of phenylbenzimidazolesulfonic acid. DE A1 discloses compositions comprising (a) one or more UV-filters comprising one or more Sulfonic acids or Sulfonated groups and (b) basic amino acids. Such com positions have an increased SPF (sun protection factor), improved water-resistance and particularly a higher stability in the presence of sulfonated UV-filters (in particular in O/Wemulsions); the use of basic amino acids for achieving a US 8,440,172 B higher stability of emulsions is also disclosed, in particular in the presence of sulfonated UV-filters. For comparison we prepared the emulsions of examples 1, 3 and 4 of DE Emulsions of examples 1 and 3 of DE as such were stable. The following further observations were made: example 1: ph=5.9; phenylbenzimidazole sulfonic acid had not been dissolved completely; crystals of phenylbenzimi dazole Sulfonic acid were present even when heating the formulation to 95 C.; example 3: ph=5.4; phenylbenzimidazole sulfonic acid recrystallised out of the emulsion after two days at 20 C.; example 4: ph=4.0 (at 83 C.), the water phase separated, recystallisation of phenylbenzimidazole Sulfonic acid was observed Thus, DE A1 does not teach a reliable way to stabilise phenylbenzimidazole Sulfonic acid. Surprisingly, it has now been found that basic amino acids can be used as a neutralisation agent in cosmetics to partially neutralise phe nylbenzimidazole Sulfonic acids to ph-values in the range of from 5.5 to 7.0 and particularly from 6.0 to 7.0 (measured at 25 C.), which prevents the expected recystallisation of phe nylbenzimidazole sulfonic acid at these phs. The present invention relates to cosmetic formulations having a ph-value in the range of from 5.5 to 7.0, preferably from 6.0 to or below 7.0, and more preferably in the range of 6.0 to 6.8, comprising (i) 1-8 wt.-%, preferably 1-5, wt.-%, of phenylbenzimidazole Sulfonic acid, and (ii) a total of at least 50 wt.-%, preferably wt.-%, of one or more basic amino acids, based on the amount of phenylbenzimidazole Sulfonic acid (i). Preferably, the one or more basic amino acid are selected from the group consisting of arginine, lysine, histidine and ornithine. Preferably the ph-value of a cosmetic, dermatologic or pharmaceutical formulation according to the invention is in the following ranges: when arginine is comprised in the formulation: ph of 6.0 to below 7.0, preferably to 6.8; when lysine is comprised in the formulation: ph of 6.2 to below 7.0, preferably 6.3 to below 7.0, and more preferably 6.3 to 6.8; when histidine is comprised in the formulation: ph of 6.0 to below 7.0, preferably to 6.8; and when ornithine is comprised in the formulation: ph of 6.2 to below 7.0, preferably to 6.8. In one preferred embodiment, cosmetic and/or pharmaceu tical preparations of the invention comprise phenylbenzimi dazole Sulfonic acid neutralised with basic amino acids as described above in combination with one or more further UV absorbers, preferably a total fraction of UV absorbers in the range from 0.1% to 40% by weight, more preferably in the range from 0.2% to 30% by weight and more preferably in the range 0.5% to 20% by weight, based on the total weight of the preparation. In a further preferred embodiment a cosmetic and/or phar maceutical preparation of the invention, especially a derma tologically active preparation, comprises a total amount of UV filters and/or inorganic pigments such that the preparation of the invention has a Sun protection factor of greater than or equal to 2 (preferably greater than or equal to 5). These Sunscreens are suitable for protecting skin and hair. Further suitable photoprotective agents (UV absorbers) are, for example, organic UV absorbers from the class of 4-aminobenzoic acid and derivatives, salicylic acid deriva

Combining phenylbenzimidazole Sulfonic acid neutralised with basic amino acids with other UV filters, for example with the UV filters listed above and particularly the UV filters listed as particularly suitable for combination', but not lim ited to these, leads to synergistic effects in the degree of protection offered against UVB and UVA radiation as deter mined by measurements to determine Sun protection factors against UVA and/or UVB radiation. The invention thus also provides the teaching that combin ing phenylbenzimidazole Sulfonic acid neutralised with basic amino acids with individual or any desired mixtures of any of the UV filters listed above as well as any from the allowed UV filters for use in Sun protection products presently legislated 1. USA: by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). pub lished in the Monograph for Sunscreen Drug Products for Over-The-Counter Human Use. Europe: by the Cosmetics Directive 76/768 EEC of the Coun cil of European Communities published in the in the Offi cial Journal of the European Communities. Japan: in the positive list of allowed UV filters in the publi cation of the cosmetic criteria by the Ministry of Health and Welfare (MHW). Australia: in the positive list of allowed UV filters published by the Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration in the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG). leads to synergistic protective effects against UVA and/or UVB radiation. Combining phenylbenzimidazole Sulfonic acid neutralised with basic amino acids with other UV filters with filters that absorb in the UVA range leads to broadband UV protection cosmetic and dermatological formulations. Improved photostable cosmetic and dermatological formu lations can also be formulated with phenylbenzimidazole sulfonic acid neutralised with basic amino acids with other UV filters, either alone or with other UV filters as listed above. The cosmetic and/or dermatological formulations accord ing to the present invention can have the customary compo sition and can be used for cosmetic and/or dermatological Sun protection, and also for the treatment, care and cleansing of the skin and/or of the hair and as a make-up product in decorative cosmetics. Accordingly, the preparations accord ing to the present invention can, depending on their formula tion, be used, for example, as skin protection cream, cleansing milk, Sunscreen lotion, nourishing cream, day cream or night cream. The preparations according to the present invention can, depending on their formulation, also be used for US 8,440,172 B example, in hair care compositions such as shampoos, con ditioners, 2 in 1 formulations, anti-dandruff shampoos, hair tonics, hair lotions, hair rinses, styling products, sprays, etc. In some instances, it is possible and advantageous to use the preparations according to the present invention as bases for pharmaceutical formulations. Preference is given, in particu lar, to those cosmetic and dermatological preparations in the form of a skin care, hair care or make-up product. Typical embodiments are creams, gels e.g. but not limited to hydro gels, hydrodispersion gels, oil gels; lotions, alcoholic and aqueous/alcoholic solutions, emulsions in their various forms for example but not limited to oil in water (O/W), water in oil (W/O), mixed emulsions, PIT emulsions, Pickering emul sions, microemulsions, nano-emulsions; aerosol foams, non aerosol foams, aerosols sprays, non-aerosol sprays, pump sprays, serums, roll-ons, pastes, balsams, or stick prepara tions.

More preference is given to those cosmetic and dermato logical preparations in the form of a cosmetic composition for the protection of the skin and hair. Advantageously, in addi tion to phenylbenzimidazole sulfonic acid neutralised with basic amino acids used according to the present invention, these can contain at least one inorganic pigment, preferably an inorganic micropigment. The cosmetic and dermatological preparations according to the present invention can comprise cosmetic auxiliaries, as are customarily used in Such preparations, e.g. preservatives, bactericides, perfumes, antifoams, dyes, pigments which have a coloring action, thickeners, moisturizers and/or humectants, fats, oils, waxes or other customary constituents of a cosmetic or dermatological formulation, such as alco hols, polyols, polymers, foam stabilisers, electrolytes, organic solvents or silicone derivatives. The amounts of cos metic or dermatological auxiliaries and carrier Substances and perfume which can be used in each case can be deter mined easily by the person skilled in the art by simple trial and error, depending on the nature of the product in question. Preferred embodiments of the cosmetic and/or pharmaceu tical, especially dermatological preparations of the invention may also comprise anionic, cationic, nonionic and/or ampho teric Surfactants. Surfactants are amphiphilic Substances which can dissolve organic, nonpolar substances in water. In this context, the hydrophilic components of a Surfactant mol ecule are usually polar functional groups, for example COO, OSO, -SO, while the hydrophobic parts as a rule are nonpolar hydrocarbon radicals. Surfactants are in general classified according to the nature and charge of the hydrophilic molecular moiety. A distinction can be made between four groups here: anionic Surfactants, cationic Surfactants, amphoteric Surfactants and nonionic Surfactants.

11 11 Anionic Surfactants as a rule contain carboxylate, Sulphate or Sulphonate groups as functional groups. In aqueous solu tion, they form negatively charged organic ions in an acid or neutral medium. Cationic Surfactants are almost exclusively characterised by the presence of a quaternary ammonium group. In aqueous Solution, they form positively charged organic ions in an acid or neutral medium. Amphoteric Sur factants contain both anionic and cationic groups and accord ingly behave like anionic or cationic Surfactants in aqueous Solution, depending on the ph. In a strongly acid medium they have a positive charge, and in an alkaline medium a negative charge. On the other hand, they are Zwitterionic in the neutral ph range. Polyether chains are typical of nonionic Surfactants. Nonionic Surfactants do not form ions in an aque ous medium. A. Anionic Surfactants Anionic Surfactants which are advantageously used are acylamino acids (and salts thereof). Such as: acyl glutamates, for example sodium acyl glutamate, di TEA-palmitoyl aspartate and Sodium caprylic/capric glutamate, acyl peptides, for example palmitoyl hydrolysed milk pro tein, Sodium cocoyl hydrolysed Soya protein and Sodium/potassium cocoyl hydrolysed collagen, sarcosinates, for example myristoyl sarcosine, TEA-lau royl sarcosinate, Sodium lauroyl sarcosinate and sodium cocoyl sarcosinate, taurates, for example sodium lauroyl taurate and sodium methylcocoyl taurate, acyl lactylates, lauroyl lactylate, caproyl lactylate alaninates carboxylic acids and derivatives, such as for example: TEA stearate, Glyceryl Stearates, PEG glyceryl Stearates lauric acid, aluminium Stearate, magnesium alkanolate and Zinc undecylenate, ester-carboxylic acids, for example calcium Stearoyl lacty late, laureth-6 citrate and sodium PEG-4 lauramide car boxylate, glyceryl Stearates, glyceryloleylstearates, glyceryl citrates, glyceryl oleyl citrates, ether-carboxylic acids, for example sodium laureth-13 car boxylate and sodium PEG-6 cocamide carboxylate, Glucoside esters.

Quaternary Surfactants contain at least one Natom which is covalently bonded to 4 alkyl or aryl groups. This leads to a positive charge, independently of the ph. Alkylbetaine, alky lamidopropylbetaine and alkylamidopropylhydroxysul phaine are advantageous. The cationic Surfactants used can further preferably be chosen from the group consisting of quaternary ammonium compounds, in particular benzyltri alkylammonium chlorides or bromides, such as, for example, benzyldimethylstearylammonium chloride, and also alkyltri alkylammonium salts, for example cetyltrimethylammonium chloride or bromide, alkyldimethylhydroxyethylammonium chlorides or bromides, dialkyldimethylammonium chlorides or bromides, alkylamideethyltrimethylammonium ether sul phates, alkylpyridinium salts, for example lauryl- or cetylpy ridinium chloride, imidazoline derivatives and compounds having a cationic character, Such as amine oxides, for example alkyldimethylamine oxides or alkylaminoethyldim ethylamine oxides.

In addition, cosmetic and dermatological preparations according to the present invention advantageously, but not obligatorily, comprise inorganic pigments based on finely disperse metal oxides and/or other metal compounds which are insoluble or sparingly soluble in water, in particular the oxides of titanium (TiO), Zinc (ZnO), iron (e.g. FeO), Zirconium (ZrO2), silicon (SiO2), manganese (e.g. MnO), aluminum (Al2O), cerium (e.g. CeO), mixed oxides of the corresponding metals, and mixtures of Such oxides. These pigments are X-ray-amorphous or non-x-ray-amorphous. More preference is given to pigments based on TiO2. X-ray amorphous oxide pigments are metal oxides or semi-metal oxides which reveal no or no recognizable crystalline struc ture in X-ray diffraction experiments. Such pigments are often obtainable by flame reaction, for example by reacting a metal or semi-metal halide with hydrogen and air (or pure oxygen) in a flame. In cosmetic, dermatological or pharmaceutical formula tions, X-ray-amorphous oxide pigments are used as thicken ers and thixotropic agents, flow auxiliaries for emulsion and dispersion stabilisation and as carrier substance (for example for increasing the volume of finely divided powders). X-ray amorphous oxide pigments which are known and often used in cosmetic ordermatological galenics are, for example, high purity silicon oxide. Preference is given to high-purity, X-ray amorphous silicon dioxide pigments with a particle size in the range from 5 to 40 nm and an active surface area (BET) in the range from 50 to 400 m/g, preferably 150 to 300 m/g, where the particles are to be regarded as spherical particles of very uniform dimension. Macroscopically, the silicon dioxide pig ments are recognizable as loose, white powders. Silicon diox ide pigments are sold commercially under the name Aerosil R. (CAS-No ) or Carb-O-Sil Advantageous Aerosil(R) grades are, for example, Aerosil(ROX50, Aerosil R130, Aerosil R150, Aerosil R200, Aerosil R300, Aerosil R380, Aerosil RMOX 80, Aerosil(RMOX 170, Aerosil(RCOK 84, Aerosil(RR 202, Aerosil RR 805, Aerosil RR 812, Aerosil(RR972, Aerosil(RR 974, Aerosil(RR 976. According to the present invention, cosmetic or dermato logical light protection preparations comprise 0.1 to 20% by weight, advantageously 0.5 to 10% by weight, more prefer ably 1 to 5% by weight, of X-ray-amorphous oxide pigments. The non-x-ray-amorphous inorganic pigments are, according to the present invention, advantageously in hydro phobic form, i.e. have been surface-treated to repel water. This surface treatment may involve providing the pigments with a thin hydrophobic layer by processes known per se. Such a process involves, for example, producing the hydro phobic surface layer by a reaction according to where n and m are stoichiometric parameters to be used as desired, and RandR are the desired organic radicals. Hydro phobicised pigments prepared analogously to DE-A , for example, are advantageous. US 8,440,172 B For example, mention may be made of TiO, pigments, as are sold under the trade name T805 from Degussa. Preference is also given to TiO/FeO mixed oxides, as are Supplied, for example, under the trade name T817, also from Degussa. The total amount of inorganic pigments, in particular hydrophobic inorganic micropigments, in the finished cos metic or dermatological preparations is advantageously cho sen from the range from 0.1 to 30% by weight, preferably 0.1 to 10.0% by weight, preferably 0.5 to 6.0% by weight, based on the total weight of the preparations.
