Alpha Arbutin (MF: C12H16O7 MW: 272.25) is a highly effective, synthetically produced phenolic glycoside with skin-lightening activity far superior to that of natural β-arbutin. By inhibiting tyrosinase activity to block melanin production, it is gentle, non-irritating, non-photosensitizing, and highly stable, making it the most widely used and safest skin-brightening and spot-fading ingredient in the global personal care industry.
α-Arbutin is a white crystalline powder, soluble in water and ethanol. It is stable under neutral and weakly acidic conditions, effectively inhibits tyrosinase activity, and is not easily hydrolyzed or decomposed at moderate temperatures.
