    A new soluble cyclodextrin derivative 6-O-(2-hydroxybutyl)-beta-cyclodextrin (6-HB-beta-CD) was prepared. Its molecular binding and recognition ability were investigated with the comparison of beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD), 2-O-(2-hydroxypropyl)-beta-cyclodextrin (2-HP-beta-CD), 6-O-(2-hydroxypropyl)-beta-cyclodextrin (6-HP-beta-CD), and 2-O-(2-hydroxybutyl)-beta-cyclodextrin (2-HB-beta-CD).
