Description

Sucrose Octaacetate CAS NO 126-14-7 is a fully acetylated derivative of sucrose, serving as a key intermediate and functional additive in advanced chemical synthesis. This compound is valued for its role as a non-caloric, intensely bitter denaturant and a versatile protecting group in carbohydrate chemistry. It is essential for manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, food additive, and specialty chemical industries seeking reliable, high-purity raw materials for production and research.

Application

• Primary use as a bitter denaturant for ethanol, making it unfit for human consumption in industrial applications.
• Key intermediate in the synthesis of complex sucrose-based chemicals and pharmaceuticals.
• Employed as a plasticizer and modifier in specialty polymer and cellulose acetate formulations.
• Used in flavor and fragrance industries as a bittering agent for product safety and aversive training.
• Application in analytical chemistry as a standard or reagent.
• Potential use in coatings and adhesives as a modifying agent.
