Vitamin C is one of the most effective natural antioxidants. However, due to its poor solubility in non-aqueous environments, its use is restricted to water-based systems. In order to extend its advantages to lipophilic media, vitamin C must be converted into amphiphilic derivatives. Two new vitamin C-based surfactants were synthesized: a bolaform derivative (1,12-diascorbyl dodecanedioate, BOLA12
