Abstract

Compound, corresponding to the formula C.sub.8 H.sub.17 --(C.tbd.C--CH.sub.2).sub.3 --CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 R O (I) in which R is a C.sub.1 -C.sub.8 lower alkoxy or C.sub.4 -C.sub.6 cycloalkoxy group, substituted with one or more hydroxyl groups and/or interrupted by one or more hetero atoms chosen from oxygen and sulphur, an amino group of structure ##STR1## in which R.sub.1 or R.sub.2, which may be identical or different, denote a hydrogen atom or a linear or branched C.sub.1 -C.sub.8 lower alkyl radical, optionally interrupted by one or more hetero atoms chosen from oxygen, sulphur and nitrogen, this alkyl radical being able to be substituted with one or more hydroxyl groups, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 not being able to denote hydrogen simultaneously, or alternatively R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 form, together with the nitrogen atom, a heterocyclic system optionally containing oxygen, sulphur or nitrogen as an additional hetero atom, one of the radicals R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 also being able to denote, when the other is a hydrogen atom, an aryl radical of formula (II): ##STR2## or alternatively a benzyl radical of formula (III): ##STR3## in which formulae R.sub.3 and R.sub.4, denote, independently of each other, a hydrogen atom, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl radical, a hydroxyl group, a halogen atom or a carboxyl or trifluoromethyl group, the amine group also being able to originate from a sugar, and also the isomers and salts thereof which are pharmaceutically and cosmetically acceptable.
