Uses

Used in Cosmetics and Skincare Industry:
Ethanone, 1-[2,6-bis(acetyloxy)phenyl]is used as a UV filter in sunscreens for its ability to absorb and filter ultraviolet light, providing photoprotection to the skin and preventing sunburn and skin damage caused by UV radiation.
Used in Hair Care Products:
In the hair care industry, Ethanone, 1-[2,6-bis(acetyloxy)phenyl]is used as a UV protectant in hair care products to shield hair from the damaging effects of UV light, which can lead to hair dryness, brittleness, and color fading. Its inclusion in hair care formulations helps maintain hair health and appearance.

Synthesis of substituted 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran in a process involving a facile acyl migration

Reduction of 2,6-diacetoxy-2′-bromoacetophenone (10) with NaBH4 led to 3,4-diacetoxydihydrobenzofuran (12) in a process involving acyl migration followed by cyclization. Subsequent hydrogenolysis gave 4-acetoxydihydrobenzofuran which, upon saponification, afforded 4-hydroxydihydrobenzofuran (8) in good yield. This approach is shown to be a general method for preparation of substituted dihydrobenzofurans.

A method of cosmetic depigmentation care by applying at least one aurone

At least one aurone or a natural or synthetic derivative of aurone, or an analogue of aurone, in which the independent phenyl ring can be substituted by a heterocycle of pyrrole, imidazole, triazole, pyridine, furan, or thiophene type, is disclosed as a cosmetic agent, or as an active substance, for the manufacture either of a cosmetic composition, or of a pharmaceutical composition, notably a dermatological composition, having a melanogenesis-inhibiting activity or a depigmenting activity, or an anti-tyrosinase activity.
