General description

Triacetyl-β-cyclodextrin, a water-insoluble derivative of cyclodextrin typically formed by the substitution of a hydroxyl group of the parent compound with maleic anhydride (−OCOCH3), has been proposed to act as a sustained release carrier for some pharmaceutical compounds.

Application

Invovled in studies of:
  • Controlled drug release of an inclusion complex
  • Biocompatible excipients for solubilization and deaggregation of cobalt bis(dicarbollide) derivatives in water
  • Extraction of aromatic amino acids
  • Emulsifiers
  • Polymerization initiation of cyclic esters
  • Sustained release matrix tablets

Nonaqueous capillary electrophoresis (NACE) equipped with amperometric detection has been developed for separation and detection of an 11-member model mixture of chlorinated phenolic compounds. With triacetyl-beta-cyclodextrin (TACD) as a novel selectivity selector, acetonitrile proved to be an excellent solvent for
