8.8 Sweeteners 435

(8.5)

Fig. 8.5. Relative sweetening strength of some sweeteners

as a function of the saccharose concentration (• neohesperidin

dihydrochalcone, △ saccharin, ◦ aspartame,

□ acesulfame K) (according to Bär et al. 1990)

tially lower than that of saccharin and

is f sac, g (10) =35. It has no bitter after-taste.

Overall, the sweet taste of cyclamate is not as

pleasant as that of saccharin. The present stipulated

ADI value of the acid is 0−11 mg/kg of

body weight. The synthesis of the compound is

based on sulfonation of cyclohexylamine:

Table 8.3 shows several homologous compounds,

illustrating the dependence of sweetness intensity

on cycloalkyl ring size. The larger the ring size,

the higher the sweetness, i. e. the lower the sweetness

threshold value.
