Summary: | Cyclodextrin (CD), a cyclic oligosaccharide constructed from six, seven, or eight alpha (1 arrow right 4)-linked glucose units, has a cylindrical cavity in the molecule and includes a variety of compounds which fit into it to form inclusion complexes. The main driving force for the complex formation is considered to be hydrophobic and van der Waals interactions. The present study was undertaken to obtain some information on the structure of the receptor from examination of interactions between BP homologs and CD, the CD being used as a simple model of the receptor. Most BPs were prepared by the reaction of the corresponding triols with phosphoryl chloride. |
