Hydrolysis of Sodium Cyclamate


Is reflux under alkaline conditions (3M NaOH (aq.)) sufficient to hydrolyze most sulfanamides? I was thinking of the hydrolysis of sodium cyclamate in particular, which would make for an OTC route to cyclohexylamine, however, all the references I can find refer to fairly extreme acidic conditions...

(i.e. http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/ac60258a033 which calls for heating sodium cyclamate with conc. HCl under pressure)
