The underlying mechanism here is likely glutathione which cysteine helps increase. Certain similar compounds still provide cysteine. For example L cysteine. However N is generally considered better and safer though I don’t have safety concerns about either.

I'm sure NAC does more, but glutathione helps your body recycle vitamin C, and if NAC helps increase glutathione it'll increase vitamin C as well.
