Abstract

Tocopheryl glycosides of the general formula ##STR1## or of the general formula ##STR2## where n can adopt values of 0-6 and where R represents a radical from the group consisting of H, branched and unbranched alkyl of 1-18 carbon atoms, branched and unbranched acyl of 1-18 carbon atoms, and where R within one molecule can be identical in all positions of tie glycosyl groups, but can also adopt different meanings within one molecule, such that it is possible within one molecule to choose any desired combinations of the radicals represented.
