Rotational Dynamics of Cyclodextrin Complexes
In an effort to understand how cyclodextrins (CD’s) include guests we:
Cyclodextrins
PRODAN
Effect of Solvent Polarity on PRODAN Fluorescence
PRODAN fluorescence changes little as _-CD is added.
PRODAN fluorescence becomes more intense and shifts slightly blue as _-CD is added.
PRODAN fluorescence increases in intensity and shifts “way-blue” as _-CD is added.
