Cyclamic acid is a compound with formula C₆H₁₁NHSO₂OH.

It is included in E number "E952".

Cyclamic Acid is mainly used as catalyst in the production of paints and plastics, and furthermore as reagent for laboratories.

The sodium and calcium salts of cyclamic acid are used as artificial sweeteners under the name cyclamate.

The sodium form of this compound (which is much more likely to be a carcinogen) is banned in the USA and other countries for use as a sweetener. In the UK it used to be banned, but now it is allowed.^[1]
