Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of cosmetics, in particular, to a diastereoisomer of a vitamin C derivative and its preparation and application. BACKGROUND
[0002] Octyl 2-glyceryl ascorbate (GO-VC) has many excellent effects as a new active ingredient in the field of skin care. It is more stable than pure vitamin C (ascorbic acid), has a wider pH range for use, and is more flexible in formulation.
[0003] Octyl 2-glyceryl ascorbate (GO-VC) has been shown to help synthesize sphingolipids in the skin and is a powerful antioxidant. The stability of octyl 2-glyceryl ascorbate (GO-VC) is greatly improved compared to ascorbic acid, greatly expanding its use scenarios. However, due to process limitations, commercially available GOVC is generally a mixture of two diastereoisomers, and there is no optically pure product.
[0004] The traditional preparation method has the following problems:
[0005] 1. The route is long, and the general steps are: first, protecting the diol of ascorbic acid, then reacting with octanol derivative to connect octanol, then deprotecting, and then reacting with glycerol and salifying with lysine. From the above steps, it can be found that it often involves the problems of multiple use of protecting groups and multi-step reactions;
[0006] 2. Low yield, many by-products, poor atom economy, and complicated post-treatment in the key step;
[0007] 3. Cannot be produced on a large scale, and the cost is extremely high. SUMMARY
[0008] The present application aims to overcome the above-mentioned defects, and provides a method for synthesizing two diastereoisomers (R-GOVC) and (S-GOVC) of octyl 2-glyceryl ascorbate (GO-VC) independently from each other, from cheap and readily available ascorbic acid as raw material. The process is efficient and simple, with high yield, green and environmentally friendly, and suitable for large-scale industrial production.
