Liquid and subcritical chromatographic analyses using evaporative ligh
t scattering detection were used to investigate the composition of var
ious commercial dimethylated beta-cyclodextrins (beta-CD). The chromat
ographic fingerprints better depict the complexity of each mixture tha
n the degree of substitution. The elution order is reversed when subcr
itical fluid chromatography is used instead of LC on apolar stationary
phases (TMS and phenyl columns). Concerning the RPLC analysis of meth
ylated beta-CD, a phenyl-bonded silica column offers selectivities tha
t are different from those obtained using a classical C-18-bonded sili
ca column. With regard to the more complex mixtures, SubFC allows one
to obtain richer methylated beta-CD fingerprints than does LC.
