Alpha-arbutinEnglish alias: 4-Hydroquinone-alpha-D-glucopyranoside; a-Arbutin Chinese name: alpha-arbutin Chinese alias: alpha-arbutin; 4-hydrophenylhydrazine-alpha-D-glucopyranoside; hydroquinone-alpha-D-glucoside; α-arbutin; 4-hydroxybenzene-α-D -glucopyranoside CAS RN: 84380-01-8 Melting point: 203~ 207±1°C Content: ≥99% (HPLC) Alpha-arbutin is similar to β-arbutin, which inhibits the production and deposition of melanin and eliminates spots and freckles. Studies have shown that α-arbutin can inhibit the activity of tyrosinase at a relatively low concentration, and its inhibition effect on tyrosinase is better than that of β arbutin. Alpha-arbutin can be used as a whitening agent in cosmetics, such as Zihua Ting. |
