Intensely bitter2
  • Sucrose octaacetate decomposes at about 285 °C, but can be distilled at reduced pressure at 260 °C. The compound is odorless but intensely bitter, being detectable at a concentration of 1-2 ppm. (wikipedia.org)
  • Biological Activity： Sucrose octaacetate is an acetylated derivative of sucrose with an intensely bitter tasting and can be used as bitter tasting surrogate. (epigenetics-modulation-frontier.com)
Toxic products1
Deterrent1
  • Due to its low toxicity, sucrose octaacetate was authorized by the US Environment Protection Agency for use as an inert ingredient in pesticides, as food additive, and as a nail-biting and thumb-sucking deterrent in over-the-counter drug products. (wikipedia.org)
Adhesive2
  • Sucrose octaacetate has been used as an adhesive and as a plasticizer in lacquers and plastics. (wikipedia.org)
  • Sucrose octaacetate can be used as food additive and also used as an adhesive and plasticizer. (epigenetics-modulation-frontier.com)
Pesticides1
  • Sucrose octaacetate is used as an inert ingredient in pesticides and herbicides, as a bitter additive. (wikipedia.org)
Sodium2
  • The compound can be prepared by the exothermic reaction of sucrose with acetic anhydride at about 145 °C, with sodium acetate as catalyst. (wikipedia.org)
  • Sucrose octaacetate can be converted to other eightfold fatty acid esters of sucrose by reacting it with the appropriate triglyceride with sodium methoxide as catalyst. (wikipedia.org)
Octa-acetate1
  • Zinc acetate lozenges contained 13 mg elemental zinc and placebo lozenges contained sucrose octa-acetate to camouflage the taste of zinc. (wbcil.com)
Quinine1
  • Analyses of behavioral responses (licking tests) revealed that mice given a single intraperitoneal injection of flecainide exhibited a significant reduction in preference for a sour tastant (HCl) but not for other taste solutions (NaCl, quinine, sucrose, KCl and monopotassium glutamate) when compared with controls.

Taste1
  • Sucrose octaacetate has been used to determine tasters from non-tasters in mice, in clinical drug studies and sweetener evaluations, and in taste physiology research. (wikipedia.org)
