Dimeric (Oligomeric) Derivatives of Cyclodextrins as a New Class of Supramolecular Systems: Their Synthesis and Inclusion Complexes

摘要

We have summarized the works on the synthesis and application of dimeric (oligomeric) cyclodextrin derivatives. Due to the presence of two or more internal cyclodextrin cavities and their spatial proximity and other properties of these derivatives, they have an increased so-called cooperative effect with respect to the inclusion of numerous guests. It allows us to define these compounds as a new class of supramolecular structures. We have briefly analyzed the opportunities for their application in different fields of organic, analytical, and medicinal chemistry.
