Calcium acetate is a chemical compound that is a calcium salt of acetic acid. It has the formula Ca(C2H3O2)2. Its standard name is calcium acetate, while calcium ethanoate is the systematic name. An older name is an acetate of lime.
Calcium acetate is used as a food additive, as a stabilizer, buffer, and sequestrant, mainly in candy products under the number E263.
Tofu is traditionally obtained by coagulating soy milk with calcium sulfate. Calcium acetate has been found to be a better alternative; being soluble, it requires less skill and a smaller amount.
Because it is inexpensive, calcium acetate was once a common starting material for the synthesis of acetone before the development of the cumene process:
Ca(CH3COO)2 → CaCO3(s) + (CH3)2CO
It is a colorless to white crystalline solid which has a slight odour of acetic acid. It dissolves in water and alcohol and is insoluble in benzene and acetone. In its anhydrous form is strongly hygroscopic and therefore occurs as monohydrate in its common form. Calcium acetate can be obtained by soaking calcium carbonate or hydrated lime in vinegar. It is widely used in food products as a food additive, buffer, sequestrant, and stabilizer.
