Scabioside C(CAS: 17233-22-6)

Scabioside C is a naturally occurring flavonol glycoside. It is a white or off-white crystalline powder with a molecular weight of approximately 482.3 g/mol. It is slightly soluble in water and ethanol but poorly soluble in organic solvents. Chemically, it is relatively stable under normal conditions but can react with acids to release aglycone. It is commonly used in pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries due to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

Scabioside C is typically synthesized through the glycosylation of flavonols using acetic acid and a suitable glycosyl donor. Common catalysts include sodium hydride and HATU (O-(7-azabenzotriazol-1-yl)-N,N,N',N'-tetramethyluronium hexafluorophosphate). The yield is usually around 70-80% under optimal conditions. The reaction involves careful control of pH and temperature to ensure selectivity and yield.

Scabioside C is used in the pharmaceutical industry for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. It is also utilized in the cosmetic industry for its skin-protecting and anti-aging effects. Additionally, it has potential applications in the food industry as a natural colorant and antioxidant. Its use in polymer production for enhanced properties and in sensors for detecting specific compounds is also being explored.

When handling Scabioside C, it is advisable to wear gloves, goggles, and a lab coat to protect against skin and eye contact. It should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture to prevent degradation. In case of a spill, use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and clean up immediately using a suitable absorbent material. Always refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for detailed handling and emergency procedures.
