Mm. Maheswaran et S. Divakar, APPLICATIONS OF CYCLODEXTRINS IN ORGANIC SYNTHESES, Journal of Scientific & Industrial Research, 53(12), 1994, pp. 924-932
The importance of inclusion complex formation by cyclodextrins is disc
ussed with respect to their characteristics as potential enzyme mimics
in various synthetic applications in organic chemistry. The principal
applications centre around their use as reaction vessels, enzymes, an
d chiral discriminators.
