[Relationship between chemical structure and sweetness. XIV. Analogs of aspartame]. 1977

M De Nardo

Several analogs structurally related to aspartame were prepared in order to establish if chemical modifications of the molecule might improve sweetness. None of these analogs exhibited any sweet taste; on the contrary in most cases they were bitter.
