Vitamin C ethyl ether

What is Vitamin C Ethyl Ether?

Vitamin C ether (3-O-ethyl ascorbic acid) is an amphoteric derivative with both lipophilic and hydrophilic properties, obtained by replacing the 3-hydroxyl group of the vitamin C molecule with an ethyl group. This structure allows it to easily penetrate the stratum corneum and enter the dermis. Once inside the body, it is broken down by biological enzymes to release active vitamin C, overcoming the drawbacks of ordinary vitamin C such as low bioavailability, easy oxidation and discoloration, and difficulty in stabilizing formulations. Its mechanism of action is clear: in the epidermis, it achieves whitening and fading of dark spots by inhibiting tyrosinase activity and reducing melanin intermediates; in the dermis, it participates in collagen synthesis, promoting skin cell repair and improving elasticity. YTBIO supplies vitamin C ether with a purity of 99%, possessing both water and oil solubility, broad formulation compatibility, and stable application in various dosage forms such as serums, lotions, creams, and freeze-dried powders.

What are the benefits of YTBIO Vitamin C Ethyl Ether?

3-o-Ethyl Ascorbic acid reaches the basal layer through the stratum corneum of the skin, inhibits tyrosinase activity, inhibits the formation of melanin, reduces melanin to colorless, and effectively whitens and removes freckles. VC-ethyl ether can also directly participate in the synthesis of collagen after entering the dermis, increasing collagen, thereby making the skin plump and elastic.

In-depth repair: It can penetrate into the dermis and reach the bottom layer of the skin, participate in the synthesis of collagen, repair the activity of skin cells, and make the skin plump, elastic, delicate and smooth.

Freckle removal and whitening: It has excellent ability to inhibit the production of melanin, and can also reduce melanin to colorless, thereby achieving an efficient whitening effect and making the skin bright and even.

Antioxidant protection: Compared with ordinary vitamin C, vitamin C ethyl ether is more stable and less likely to change color. It can exert excellent antioxidant effects in cosmetics, ensure the utilization of vitamin C, and delay skin aging.

Antibacterial and anti-inflammatory: It has powerful antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects, which can relieve the inflammatory reaction caused by sun exposure and protect skin health.

Vitamin C ethyl ether possesses both lipophilic and hydrophilic properties, making it easily absorbed by the skin and penetrating directly to the dermis. It exhibits excellent stability, resisting light, heat, acids, alkalis, salts, and oxidation. It effectively inhibits tyrosinase activity, reduces melanin production, and reduces melanin to a colorless form, thus achieving a skin-whitening effect. Once in the dermis, it directly participates in collagen synthesis, repairs skin cell activity, and increases collagen production, resulting in plump, elastic, smooth, and supple skin. Simultaneously, it possesses powerful antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects, effectively combating sun-induced inflammation. In cosmetics, vitamin C ethyl ether demonstrates superior antioxidant properties, exhibiting higher stability than regular vitamin C, resisting discoloration, and truly achieving whitening and spot-removing effects.

Numerous clinical studies have shown that vitamin C ethyl ether can significantly brighten skin tone, inhibit skin redness caused by inflammation, visibly improve melasma, and even out skin tone. Animal experiments show that, 24 hours after application, a concentration as high as 1% can reach the dermis, playing a crucial role in improving wrinkles, age spots, and anti-aging. Furthermore, among vitamin C derivatives of equal quality, vitamin C ethyl ether has the highest vitamin C content, exceeding 80%, while other derivatives generally contain less than half.

Some researchers used high-performance liquid chromatography to track and monitor the thermal stability and antioxidant properties of vitamin C ethyl ether. The results showed that after being kept in an aqueous solution at 60°C for 6 weeks, the preservation rate of ascorbic acid ethyl ether was 95.5%, the preservation rate of magnesium ascorbyl phosphate was 70.6%, and the preservation rate of ascorbic acid was <0.01%. The free radical scavenging ability of ascorbic acid ethyl ether is basically equivalent to that of ascorbic acid, and much higher than magnesium ascorbyl phosphate.

Some scholars evaluated the whitening efficacy of VC-ethyl ether. The results of 30 human trials showed that during the experimental period, the whitening efficacy of whitening cosmetics added with VC-ethyl ether was significantly improved, and the melanin level was significantly reduced. .

Application: 

Vitamin C-ethyl ether is mainly used in skin whitening, spot removal, anti-aging skin care products such as skin creams, essences, creams, lotions, and gels.

It is a substance that is both oil and water soluble, which allows the formulator to add it to the oil phase or the water phase, or add it at high or low temperatures, making it easy to use. More importantly, this two-solubility makes it easier to wear. It penetrates the stratum corneum and enters the dermis to exert its biological effects, which other vitamin C derivatives do not have.
