摘要

At least one compound of the formula I, in which the substituents R<1>, R<2>, R<3>, R<4> and R<5> have the meanings given in Patent Claim 1, is added as sweetening agent to the substance to be sweetened. A mixture of such compounds or a combination of at least one compound of the formula I with a solid or liquid extender or carrier can also be used. The compounds of the formula I are derivatives of sucrose, but are much sweeter than sucrose although they are comparable to it with respect to quality, and they are comparable to saccharin with respect to the intensity of the sweetening action. The method is suitable both for sweetening foodstuffs and also luxury foods, stimulants and drugs. The compounds of the formula I are not absorbed by the human body and do not have any disadvantageous action on the human organism in the widest range of conventional use concentrations.
