ALKYLRESORCINOL GLYCOSIDE, PROCESS FOR PRODUCTION OF THE SAME, AND USE OF THE SAME

摘要

The object is to provide a 4-alkylresorcinol derivative in which defects inherent to a 4-alkylresorcinol are overcome and which is excellent in solubility in water and stability, has substantially no taste and no odor, is not irritative, is free from the concern about toxicity, and can exert its physiological activity in a living body satisfactorily. Thus, disclosed is a 4-alkylresorcinol glycoside which has a glycosyl group attached to one or both of the hydroxyl groups in a 4-alkylresorcinol.
