Inclusion complexes formed in lanthanide—amino acid—β-cyclodextrin systems

详细

Interactions in lanthanide—amino acid—β-cyclodextrin systems (amino acid = tryptophan, phenylalanine; lanthanide = Eu³+, Pr³+) were studied in aqueous solution. An analysis of the chemical shifts observed in the ¹H NMR spectra, as well as the ROESY data suggest the possibility for amino acid—lanthanide ion complexes encapsulated in the β-cyclodextrin cavity to form in solution. According to ROESY data, the indole ring of tryptophan and the phenyl group of phenylalanine enter the β-CD cavity from the wide rim side. Coordination with the metal ion occurs through the amino acid carboxyl group.
