in which:
n is from 0 to 19;
R and R′, which may be identical or different, are alkyls derived from an esterification by a linear or branched alcohol of molecular formula C x H 2x+2 O, x being from 1 to 30,
R″ is either a hydrogen atom or a C 1 -C 3 alkyl group.
2. The cosmetic ingredient according to claim 1 , wherein at least one solvent is selected from the group consisting of the sebacates (n=7), the adipates (n=3), the succinates (n=1), the dodecanedioates (n=9), the azelates (n=6), the glutarates (n=2), the malonates (n=0), and mixtures thereof.
3. The cosmetic ingredient according to claim 1 , wherein at least one solvent is selected from the group consisting of the sebacates (n=7).
4. The cosmetic ingredient according claim 1 , wherein at least one solvent is diethyl sebacate (CAS 110-40-7).
5. The cosmetic ingredient according to claim 1 , wherein the mass percentage of said at least one solvent in said solution is from 20% to 60%.
6. The cosmetic ingredient according to claim 1 , wherein the mass percentage of pongamol in said solution is greater than 1.30%.
7. The cosmetic ingredient according to claim 1 , wherein the mass percentage of karanjin in said solution is less than 6%.
8. The cosmetic ingredient according to claim 1 , wherein the m pongamol /m karanjin ratio in said solution is greater than 0.5.
9. A cosmetic formulation, wherein:
at least one cosmetic ingredient according to claim 1 and
at least one cosmetically acceptable vehicle.
10. A method comprising applying a solar cosmetic formulation and/or as an anti-aging cosmetic formulation as a cosmetic formulation according to claim 9 .
11. A process of selective precipitation of pongamol (CAS 484-33-3) in a karanja oil comprising pongamol (CAS 484-33-3) and karanjin (CAS 521-88-0), wherein:
1) at least one step of addition to said at least one karanja oil of at least one solvent selected from the group of the diesters having the following formula (I), or mixtures thereof:
in which:
n is from 0 to 19;
R and R′, which may be identical or different, are alkyls derived from an esterification by a linear or branched alcohol of molecular formula C x H 2x+2 O, x being from 1 from 30,
R″ is either a hydrogen atom or a C 1 -C 3 alkyl group;
said addition having the effect of forming a light phase in the form of a solution and a heavy phase in the form of a precipitate; and
2) at least one step of separation of the two phases obtained.
12. The process according to claim 11 , wherein at least one solvent is selected from the group consisting of the sebacates (n=7), the adipates (n=3), the succinates (n=1), the dodecanedioates (n=9), the azelates (n=6), the glutarates (n=2), the malonates (n=0), and mixtures thereof.
13. The process according to claim 11 , wherein at least one solvent is selected from the group consisting of the sebacates (n=7).
14. The process according to claim 11 , wherein at least one solvent is diethyl sebacate (CAS 110-40-7).
15. The process according to claim 11 , wherein in said step 1), the mass proportion of said at least one solvent introduced into said at least one karanja oil is from 60/40 to 20/80.
16. The process according to claim 11 , wherein it includes, in addition, at least one preliminary step of deodorization of said at least one karanja oil and/or at least one preliminary step of distillation of said at least one karanja oil, said steps, when they are both present, being capable of being carried out in any order.
