3-O-Ethyl-L-ascorbic acid

3-O-Ethyl-L-ascorbic acid (CAS: 86404-04-8) is a stable derivative of L-ascorbic acid (vitamin C), obtained by ethylating the 3-hydroxyl group of L-ascorbic acid. It retains the antioxidant activity of vitamin C while having better fat solubility, stability and skin penetration than natural vitamin C, and is widely used in various industrial fields. 3-O-Ethyl-L-ascorbic acid (CAS: 86404-04-8) is non-toxic, biodegradable, and has good compatibility with other ingredients, making it a versatile fine chemical raw material.
