Pro-dyes of direct dyes having an enzymatically-labile functionality, e.g. glutaramide derivatives of direct dyes of formula (I) or their physiologically acceptable salts, are described, as well as compositions for dyeing keratinous fibers containing these pro-dyes, as well as compositions for dyeing keratinous fibers containing a combination of at least one pro-dye and at least one enzyme capable of cleaving the glutaramide functionality in the pro-dye. A method for dyeing keratinous fibers with the aforementioned dyeing compositions is also described.

Compositions and methods for dyeing keratinous fibers

A method for the synthesis of 5-aryl-1,3,3,-trimethyl-2-methylene-indoline derivatives of Formula (I) or its salts of Formula (Ia) wherein 1 mole of a 5-aryl-2,3,3-trimethyl-3H-indole derivative of Formula (VII) is reacted for 1 to 44 hours at a temperature of 20&#xb0; to 180&#xb0; C. in an apolar, aprotic or polar, protic or polar aprotic solvent with 1 to 50 moles of a compound of Formula R1-A; new compounds of Formulas (I)/(Ia) and (V), obtainable by this method as well as an agent containing at least one compound of Formula (I)/(Ia) and a carbonyl/imine compound for dyeing keratinic fibers and a method for temporarily dyeing keratin fibers, for which the keratin fiber is dyed with the aforementioned agent and the dyeing, so obtained, is removed again at any later time by a sulfite preparation.

5-aryl-1,3,3-trimethyl-2-methylene-indoline derivatives and salts thereof, methods for the production and use of said compounds for the temporary coloration of fibers

The dye composition (A) for dyeing fibers, especially keratin fibers, such as human hair, is made by mixing a first component (A1) and a second component (A2) and adding an alkalizing agent or an acidifying agent, as needed. The second component (A2) consists of at least one compound with a nucleophilic reaction center and the first component (A1) consists of at least one 1-alkyl quinolinium derivative of formula (Ia) or (Ib):A multicomponent kit consisting of the first and second components packaged separately is also described as well as a method of dyeing fibers using the multicomponent kit.

Dye compositions containing quinolinium salts

The agent for dyeing keratin fibers contains one or more aryl and/or benzyl alcohols, one or more oxidizing enzymes, especially vanillyl oxidase, derivatives of vanillyl oxidase or galactose oxidase, and a nucleophilic compound that forms a dye for dyeing keratin fibers in the presence of the alcohols and enzymes. A method for dyeing keratin fibers with this agent is also disclosed. Two-component kits for performing the method of dyeing keratin fibers include a first compenent (A) and a second component (B) separate from the first component. The first component (A) includes the nucleophilic compound, the alcohol and optionally the oxidizing enzyme. The second component (B) includes the oxidizing enzyme when it is not included in the first component or more alcohol.
