The use of the compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in the preparation of an external preparation for skin whitening is provided, and the compound is shown in formula (I-1):

##STR00001##

The present disclosure can enhance the whitening activity of salidroside while taking full advantage of the protective effect of salidroside sugar ring, where the phenol residues of salidroside are restructured to obtain salidroside-plus (SP-037), which is 1-(3,5-dihydroxyphenyl)ethyl-β-D-glucoside and/or a salt thereof. The whitening effect of the compound is tested through a series of experiments.

The present invention relates to pure 5-HT6 receptor antagonists, or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt(s) thereof in combination with or as adjunct to acetylcholinesterase inhibitors and their use in the treatment of cognitive disorders. The invention further provides the pharmaceutical composition containing the said combination.
