Basic Info
The properties of 3-O-Ethyl-L-ascorbic acid
3-O-Ethyl-L-ascorbic acid looks like white powder crystals, and after maximizing the process, its pureness (HPLC) can reach over 99.5%.
3-O-Ethyl-L-ascorbac acid is a very helpful vitamin C by-product. It is not just chemically stable and non color altering, yet also a lipophilic and hydrophilic amphoteric substance, which significantly expands its applicability, specifically in everyday chemical applications.
3-O-Ethyl-L-ascorbic acid can easily go into the dermis layer with the stratum corneum, and upon entering the body, it is conveniently broken down by biological enzymes to exert the biological impacts of vitamin C.
Architectural qualities of 3-O-Ethyl-L-ascorbic acid
Because of the presence of four hydroxyl groups in the structure of 3-O-Ethyl-L-ascorbic acid, it can not be straight absorbed by the skin and is prone to oxidation, leading to discoloration. Consequently, its usage as a bleaching agent in cosmetics is limited. The 3-O-Ethyl-L-ascorbac acid gotten by 3-alkylation of hydroxyl groups is a non shade changing vitamin C by-product that does not affect its biological activity, thus filling up the space on the market for similar products.
Research study has actually shown that 3-O-Ethyl-L-ascorbic acid is quickly broken down by enzymes upon getting in the skin and exerts the effects of vitamin C.
