Abstract:
Compositions and processes for producing high purity acesulfame potassium are described. One process comprises the steps of forming a cyclic sulfur trioxide adduct; hydrolyzing the cyclic sulfur trioxide adduct to form an acesulfame-H composition comprising acesulfame-H; neutralizing the acesulfame-H in the acesulfame-H composition to form a crude acesulfame potassium composition comprising acesulfame potassium and less than 2800 wppm acetoacetamide-N-sulfonic acid, wherein the neutralizing step is conducted or maintained at a pH at or below 11.0; and treating the crude acesulfame potassium composition to form the finished acesulfame potassium composition comprising acesulfame potassium and less than 37 wppm acetoacetamide-N-sulfonic acid.

Claim (Index 9):
The process of  claim 6 , wherein the neutralizing step (c) is conducted at a pH ranging from 8 to 10.3 and the crude acesulfame potassium composition comprises from 600 wppm to 1200 wppm acetoacetamide-N-sulfonic acid, and the finished acesulfame potassium composition comprises less than 10 wppm acetoacetamide-N-sulfonic acid and less than 10 wppm acetoacetamide.
