Abstract
In order to make the behavior of the hydrophobic cavity of β-cyclodextrin clear, we have studied β-cyclodextrin-catalyzed hydrolysis of a series of nitrophenyl esters of aromatic acids. We defined a new kinetic parameter to determine the structure of the inclusion compounds. The kinetic parameters obtained provide evidence that the aromatic acid moiety rather than the nitrophenyl moiety of the esters mainly enters the hydrophobic cavity of β-cyclodextrin to form the inclusion complex.
