Benzofuran derivatives useful as sunscreens.

摘要

Benzofuran derivatives of formula (I) in which R is alkyl, cycloalkyl, aralkyl or a divalent residue which is in its turn linked to a residue which can be obtained from (I) by removing R, highly absorb the sunlight radiations in the UVA region and, in combination with UVB sunscreens, they effectively protect the skin from noxious sunlight radiations.
