Abstract:
In neutral phosphate buffer solutions of pH 7.4, the inclusive complexation of 5-(2-hydroxy phenyl)-10,15,20-tris(4-methoxy phenyl) porphyrin (o-HTPP) with alpha-cyclodextrin (alpha-CD), beta-CD, heptakis (2,3,6-tri-O-methyl)-beta-CD (TM-beta-CD), SBE-beta-CD, HP-beta-CD and gamma-CD has been examined by means of UV-vis and fluorescence spectroscopy. The formation of inclusion complexes has been confirmed on the base of changes of spectroscopy properties. The o-HTPP forms 1:2 inclusion complexes with TM-beta-CD and 1:1 inclusion complexes with the other five cyclodextrins. The formation constants (K) of o-HTPP for the formation of the inclusion complexes have been estimated from the absorbance and fluorescence intensity changes in neutral phosphate buffer solutions. The K value (2.89x10(7)), which is the formation constant for the formation of the 1:2 inclusion supramolecular, is nearly 10(4) times than those of the 1:1 inclusion complexes. Compared to the other five cyclodextrins, the strongest inclusion ability of TM-beta-CD can be explained that the hydrogen bond plays significant role in the inclusion process. UV-vis experiments also showed that the cavity of TM-beta-CD causes the transform of the state of o-HTPP. In addition (1)H NMR data and 2D-ROSEY NMR spectra support the inclusion conformation of the o-HTPP-CD supramolecular system, indicating the interaction mechanism of inclusion processes.

Stability of Substituted Cyclohexanes
The two chair conformations of cyclohexanes undergo rapid interconversion at room temperature. Both forms have identical energies and stabilities, each comprising equal amounts of the equilibrium mixture. Replacing a hydrogen atom with a functional group makes the two conformations energetically non-equivalent.
