Inclusion compounds with cyclodextrins in aqueous solution are only known in case the included compound is a polar substance; with apolar substances only very slightly soluble inclusion compounds are formed.
In order to be able to make inclusion compounds with apolar substances in solution, hydrophylic cyclodextrin derivatives have been prepared, viz. the carboxymethylether Na‐salt, the sulfopropylether Na‐salt and a soluble epichlorohydrin resin of both a and ß cyclodextrin. The molecular weight (apparent void concentration, respectively) of the derivatives is determined in a number of different ways.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
