Before a 1/1 /70 FDA ban (rescission proposed in early 1990), cyclamate noncaloric sweeteners were the major derivatives driving cycloliexylamine production. The cyclohexylsulfamic acid sodium salt (39) [139-05-9J and mote thermally stable calcium cyclohexylsulfamic acid (40) [139-06-1] salts were prepared from high purity cyclohexylamine by, among other routes, a reaction cycle with sulfamic acid. 

Aldehydes form addition products with sulfamic acid salts. These are stable ia neutral or slightly alkaline solutions but are hydroly2ed ia acid and strongly alkaline solutions. With formaldehyde, the calcium salt of the methylol (hydroxymethyl) derivative [82770-57-8], Ca(02SNHCH20H)2, is obtained as a crystalline soHd. 

The chemical structure of the most important nonnutritive sweeteners is shown in Figure 11-4. Saccharin is available as the sodium or calcium salt of orthobenzosulfimide. The cyclamates are the sodium or calcium salts of cyclohexane sulfamic acid or the acid itself. Cyclamate is 30 to 40 times sweeter than sucrose, and about 300 times sweeter than saccharin. Organoleptic comparison of sweetness indicates that the medium in which the sweetener is tasted may affect the results. There is also a concentration effect. At higher concentrations, the sweetness intensity of the synthetic sweeteners increases at a lower rate than that which occurs with sugars. This has been ascribed to the bitter-...

C. Sulfamates prepared from weak bases form acidic solutions, whereas those prepared from strong bases produce neutral solutions. The pH of 5 wt % solution of ammonium sulfamate is 5.2. Crystals of ammonium sulfamate deliquesce at relative humidity of 70% and higher. Both ammonium sulfamate [7773-06-0] and potassium sulfamate [13823-30-2] hbemte ammonia at elevated temperatures and form the corresponding imidodisulfonate (12). Inorganic sulfamates are quite water-soluble, except for the basic mercury salt. Some relative solubilities of sulfamates at 25°C in 100 g of water are ammonium, 103 g sodium, 106 g magnesium, 119 g calcium, 67 g barium, 34.2 g zinc, 115 g and lead, 218 g. The properties of a number of sulfamates may be found in the literature (see Table 5).
