This review explores cyclodextrin (CD) inclusion complex formation in solid states, differing from aqueous methods. It highlights phase transitions and factors like guest size and water competition in solid-state complexation.
Area of Science:
- Physical Chemistry
- Materials Science
Background:
- Cyclodextrin (CD) inclusion complex preparation often occurs in solid, low-water systems.
- Classical aqueous complexation models do not fully describe solid-state processes.
Purpose of the Study:
- To review solid-state guest inclusion by native cyclodextrins.
- To compare solid-state complexation with aqueous complexation mechanisms.
Main Methods:
- Analysis of solid-state phase transitions in CD complex formation.
- Thermodynamic analysis of aqueous complexation using activity scales.
Main Results:
- Solid-state guest inclusion involves phase transitions and interplay of size exclusion, co-activation, and guest-water competition.
- Aqueous complexation is influenced by hydrophobic effects, guest shape, and water energetics.
Conclusions:
- Solid-state cyclodextrin complexation requires distinct analytical approaches.
- Understanding structure-property relationships is key for both solid and aqueous systems.

Solubility
A solution is a homogeneous mixture composed of a solvent, the major component, and a solute, the minor component. The physical state of a solution—solid, liquid, or gas—is typically the same as that of the solvent. Solute concentrations are often described with qualitative terms such as dilute (of relatively low concentration) and concentrated (of relatively high concentration).
In a solution, the solute particles (molecules,...
Molecular and Ionic Solids
Molecular Solids
Molecular crystalline solids, such as ice, sucrose (table sugar), and iodine, are solids that are composed of neutral molecules as their constituent units. These molecules are held together by weak intermolecular forces such as London dispersion forces, dipole-dipole interactions, or hydrogen bonds, which...
Intermolecular Forces in Solutions
When the strengths of the intermolecular forces of attraction between solute and solvent species in a solution are no different than those present in the separated components, the solution is formed with no accompanying energy change. Such a solution is called an ideal solution. A mixture of ideal gases (or gases such as helium and argon,...
