Classification of α-cyclodextrins inclusion complexes into Type 1 and Type 2: A prelude to logK prediction

Molecular Interaction Fields (MIFs) were used in combination with a small number of geometrical descriptors to separate nine alpha -CD complexes into Type 1 and Type 2, two classes, respectively, containing complexes having high logK and low logK values (stoichiometry of 1:1). Calculations were perf...

Summary:Molecular Interaction Fields (MIFs) were used in combination with a small number of geometrical descriptors to separate nine alpha -CD complexes into Type 1 and Type 2, two classes, respectively, containing complexes having high logK and low logK values (stoichiometry of 1:1). Calculations were performed on the crystallographic conformations of alpha -CDs after their separation from the ligand and without minimization. The results show that the computational strategy adopted is able to distinguish Type 1 from Type 2 complexes and that it can be applied to all CD families.
