Abstract:
Immobilization of chlorinated solvents with hydropropyl and methyl cyclodextrins (CDs) was observed by head-space analysis to obtain the stability constants in single and multiple component systems. In each single component system, the highest stability constant was 0.299 mM(-1) for perchloroethylene (PCE) by methyl-beta-cyclodextrin (M-beta-CD), 0.136 mM(-1) for trichloroethylene (TCE) by M-beta-CD, 0.106 mM(-1) for cis-dichloroethylene (cis-DCE) by hydropropyl-alpha-cyclodextrin, and 0.090 mM(-1) for trans-dichloroethylene (trans-DCE) by M-beta-CD. When HP-beta-CD and M-beta-CD were used, the stability constants of PCE and TCE increased and those of DCEs decreased in a multiple component system. Differences in stability constants of single and multiple component systems thus should be important parameters when cyclodextrins are applied to solubilization of multiple chlorinated solvents.

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.
