3-(4′-Methylbenzylidene)camphor Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

The following compounds are particularly preferably employed as UV B filters: 2-Ethoxyhexyl p-(dimethylamino)-benzoate; 2-Ethylhexyl p-methoxycinnamate; 3-(4'-methylbenzylidene)-d, l-camphor; 2-Hydroxy-5-methoxybenzophenone; 2-Hadroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone-5-sulphonic acid; 2-Phenylbenzimidazole-5-sulphonic acid.Particularly suitable UV-B absorbers are 2-ethylhexyl p-methoxycinnamate, isoamyl p-methoxycinnamate, 2-phenylbenzimidazolesulphonic acid and 3-(4'-methylbenzylidene)-d, l-camphor.At least one of the following compounds is preferably employed as an agent absorbing the UV rays: 2-ethylhexyl p-(dimethylamino)benzoate (Escalot 507) 2-ethylhexyl p-methoxycinnamate (Parsol MCX) 3-benzylidene-d, l-camphor 3-(4'-methylbenzylidene)-d, l-camphor (Eusolex 6300) amyl 4-(dimethylamino)benzoate (Escalol 506) homomenthyl salicylate (Filtrasol A) 2-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone (Uvinul M 40 - SpectraSorb UV 9) N-(2-ethylhexyl)-4-(3'-methylidenecamphor)benzene sulphonamide

Uses
