AROMATIC SUBSTITUTED SECONDARY ALCOHOLS, KETONES AND RELATED ESTERS (addendum)

摘要

The Committee was requested to evaluate nine additional flavouring agents that belong to the group of aromatic substituted secondary alcohols, ketones and related esters. This group of nine compounds includes eight ketones (Nos 2040-2045 and 2047-2048) and one diester (No. 2046). The safety of one submitted substance, 2-aminoacetophenone (No. 2043), was not assessed, because the Committee decided that this compound should be evaluated in the future in a group of aliphatic and aromatic amines and amides. The evaluations of the remaining eight were conducted using the Procedure for the Safety Evaluation of Flavouring Agents (Figure 1, Introduction) (Annex 1, reference 131). None of these flavouring agents has previously been evaluated.
