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.

The results obtained in a continuing experiment show that there is a slow change in proportions found with time: at present we have results for a 30 day period: C. Donzé and A. W. Coleman, unpublished results.
