G. Kohler et al., STRUCTURE AND SPECTROSCOPIC PROPERTIES OF CYCLODEXTRIN INCLUSION COMPLEXES, Journal of inclusion phenomena and molecular recognition in chemistry, 25(1-3), 1996, pp. 103-108
We compare spectroscopic properties of higher order complexes of organ
ic guests (e.g. naphthalene, phenols, indole, C-60-fullerene) with cyc
lodextrins (CDx) to results of molecular modeling investigations, Naph
thalene 1:2 complexes with alpha-CDx show high spectral resolution and
peculiar triplet properties. Molecular simulations and calculation of
the experimentally measured induced circular dichroism (ICD) provide
detailed structural information.
