This invention relates to novel sweeteners of the formula:
wherein
A is hydrogen, alkyl containing 1-3 carbon atoms, hydroxyalkyl containing 1-3 carbon atoms, alkoxymethyl wherein the alkoxy contains 1-3 carbon atoms or CO2R5 in which R5 is alkyl containing 1-3 carbon atoms;
A' is hydrogen or alkyl containing 1-3 carbon atoms;
A and A' taken together with the carbon atoms to which they are attached form cycloalkyl containing 3-4 carbon atoms;
Y is -(CHR)n-R1, -CHR2R3 or R4;
R1 is cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, lower alkyl substituted cycloalkyl or cycloalkenyl, bicycloalkyl, bicycloalkenyl or tricycloalkyl containing up to 10 ring carbon atoms and up to a total of 12 carbon atoms;
R is H or alkyl containing 1-4 carbon atoms;
R2 and R3 are each cycloalkyl containing 3-4 ring carbon atoms;
R4 is alkyl containing up to 12 carbon atoms;
n=0 or 1; and
m=0 or 1;
and food-acceptable salts thereof.
