Sucrose Octaacetate, identified by its CAS number 126-14-7, is a significant compound in the fine chemical industry. Available as a high-purity white crystalline powder, it is renowned for its extremely bitter taste, which is virtually odorless. This property makes it invaluable in various applications, particularly those centered around safety and product formulation enhancement. Also known by synonyms such as SOA, D-(+)-Saccharose octaacetate, and Octaacetyl sucrose, its molecular formula is C28H38O19 and its molecular weight is 678.6 g/mol. The compound exhibits a melting point in the range of 82-85°C and is soluble in ethanol but insoluble in water.
One of the primary uses of Sucrose Octaacetate is as an aversive agent. Its intense bitterness serves as a powerful deterrent against accidental ingestion of potentially toxic substances. This makes it a critical additive in household cleaners, automotive fluids like antifreeze, and pesticides, where preventing children or pets from consuming dangerous liquids is paramount. By rendering these products unpalatable, Sucrose Octaacetate adds an essential layer of safety.
Furthermore, Sucrose Octaacetate acts as an effective denaturant for alcohol. It is widely used in industrial solvents and hand sanitizers to make the alcohol unsuitable for consumption, thereby complying with regulations and preventing misuse. This application leverages its bitter taste to modify the alcohol's properties without altering its effectiveness for its intended purpose.
In the pharmaceutical sector, Sucrose Octaacetate finds application as a plasticizer for coatings. It can improve the flexibility and durability of film coatings on tablets. It also functions as a flavor masker in oral medications, helping to disguise unpleasant tastes of active pharmaceutical ingredients, thereby improving patient compliance, especially for pediatric formulations. Its high stability and non-toxicity under standard use conditions contribute significantly to its suitability for these sensitive applications, ensuring long-lasting bitterness and consistent performance.
