Use
Acesulfame potassium occurs as a colorless to white-colored,
odorless, crystalline powder with an intensely sweet taste.Acesulfame potassium is synthesized from acetoacetic acid tertbutyl
ester and fluorosulfonyl isocyanate. The resulting compound
is transformed to fluorosulfonyl acetoacetic acid amide, which is
then cyclized in the presence of potassium hydroxide to form the
oxathiazinone dioxide ring system. Because of the strong acidity of
this compound, the potassium salt is produced directly.
An alternative synthesis route for acesulfame potassium starts
with the reaction between diketene and amidosulfonic acid. In the
presence of dehydrating agents, and after neutralization with
potassium hydroxide, acesulfame potassium is formed.Acesulfame potassium is used as an intense sweetening agent in
cosmetics, foods, beverage products, table-top sweeteners, vitamin
and pharmaceutical preparations, including powder mixes, tablets,
and liquid products. It is widely used as a sugar substitute in
compounded formulations,and as a toothpaste sweetener.
The approximate sweetening power is 180–200 times that of
sucrose, similar to aspartame, about one-third as sweet as sucralose,
one-half as sweet as sodium saccharin, and about 4-5 times sweeter
than sodium cyclamate.It enhances flavor systems and can be
used to mask some unpleasant taste characteristics.Acesulfame potassium is widely used in beverages, cosmetics, foods,
and pharmaceutical formulations, and is generally regarded as a
relatively nontoxic and nonirritant material. Pharmacokinetic
studies have shown that acesulfame potassium is not metabolized
and is rapidly excreted unchanged in the urine. Long-term feeding
studies in rats and dogs showed no evidence to suggest acesulfame
potassium is mutagenic or carcinogenic.
The WHO has set an acceptable daily intake for acesulfame
potassium of up to 15 mg/kg body-weight.The Scientific
Committee for Foods of the European Union has set a daily intake
value of up to 9 mg/kg of body-weight.
LD50 (rat, IP): 2.2 g/kg
LD50 (rat, oral): 6.9–8.0 g/kgAcesulfame potassium possesses good stability. In the bulk form it
shows no sign of decomposition at ambient temperature over many
years. In aqueous solutions (pH 3.0–3.5 at 208℃) no reduction in
sweetness was observed over a period of approximately 2 years.
Stability at elevated temperatures is good, although some decomposition
was noted following storage at 408℃ for several months.
Sterilization and pasteurization do not affect the taste of acesulfame
potassium.
The bulk material should be stored in a well-closed container in a
cool, dry place and protected from light.
