Abstract

The solubility ofβ-CD, which is increased to 87 gL−1 in 75% water - 25% isopropanol mixtures, does not behave in a linear fashion as a function of the water/isopropanol ratio. Application of this increased solubility to the formation of inclusion complexes betweenβ-cyclodextrin and cineole : eugenol, cineole : pinene and eugenol : pinene shows strong solvent modulation of the inclusion selectivity. The proportion of guests complexed is in inverse ratio to the compatibility of the guests in the solvent mixture.
