2-<i>O</i>-α-d-Glucopyranosyl-l-ascorbic acid (AA-2G) is one of the stable ascorbic acid (AA) derivatives known as provitamin C agents. We have previously synthesized two types of monoacylated derivatives of AA-2G, 6-<i>O</i>-acyl-2-<i>O</i>-α-d-glucopyranosyl-l-ascorbic acids having a straight-acyl chain of varying length from C₄ to C<sub>18</sub> (6-sAcyl-AA-2G) and a branched-acyl chain of varying length from C₆ to C<sub>16</sub> (6-bAcyl-AA-2G) in order to improve the bioavailability of AA-2 ...[more]
