Design on head-to-tail directly linked homogeneous and heterogeneous cyclodextrin dimers and their evaluation of hydrophobic cavity
摘要:
Covalent directly head-to-tail linked homogeneous and heterogeneous cyclodextrin (CD) dimers were synthesized, and that the reaction of 6-tosylated alpha-, beta-, or gamma-CD with a beta-CD mono-oxyanion linked the second CD to the secondary hydroxyl side of beta-CD was demonstrated. Moreover, deprotonation of alpha- and gamma-CD using NaOH gave corresponding mono-oxyanions, which reacted with the 6-tosylated CDs to produce the CD dimers. The binding of the dimers to sodium 6-(4-tert-butylaniline)-2-naphthalene-sulfonate (BNS) was investigated. The binding constant of the (6)beta-(2)beta-CD dimer with BNS was estimated as 3.2 x 10(6) M-1, about 10(2) times larger than that of beta-CD monomer. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
