Se. Brown et al., SYNTHESIS AND PROPERTIES OF 6A-AMINO-6A-DEOXY-ALPHA AND 6A-AMINO-6A-DEOXY-BETA-CYCLODEXTRIN, Australian Journal of Chemistry, 46(6), 1993, pp. 953-958
The monotosylates obtained by treatment of alpha- and beta-cyclodextri
n with p-methylbenzenesulfonyl chloride reacted with ammonia to give t
he title compounds. These amines are of unusually low basicity, with p
K(a) values of 8.70 and 8.72, respectively. In water at 25-degrees, th
e hydrochloride salt of the amine derived from beta-cyclodextrin is ap
proximately 40 times more soluble than beta-cyclodextrin and, through
complexation, the salt increases the solubility of Nabumetone over 800
times.
