Abstract

The inclusion complexation of five volatile chlorinated hydrocarbons, i.e., chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, trichloroethylene, tetrachloroethylene, and monochlorobenzene, with branched cyclodextrins (CDs) such as monoglucosyl-α-CD and monomaltosyl-β-CD in aqueous solutions was examined. Their inclusion complexes were found to be very water soluble and the solubilities of the chlorinated hydrocarbons in aqueous solutions increased almost linearly or gradually with increasing concentration of the branched CDs. The amounts of the chlorinated hydrocarbons included in the branched CDs were well related to their molecular size and shape. In addition, the viability of application to pollution prevention is discussed.
