摘要:
The twin-cavity cyclodextrin (1) in which the link is a dithiotrehalosyl unit, and the flexibly-linked dimer (2) were shown to distinguish between the heterocyclic guests 3 and 4 (clofazimine drug) in spite of the guests' small structural difference. Both cyclodextrin dimer hosts form 1:1 complexes with methyl orange and with 3, as shown by double reciprocal plots of UV-absorbance change and host concentration. However with 4, both host molecules formed a 2:1 (host:guest) complex. Since both dimer cavities are used to create this effect, it is a new type of selectivity for macrocyclic hosts.
