Debye-Stokes Rotational Model

__= viscosity of the solution

V = volume of rotating unit

R = 8.314 J/mol K

T = temperature of the solution

__=_rotational correlation time

_____V/ RT

For _-CD rotation:

_theo_= 0.47 ns

_exp_= 0.515 ns

For _-CD rotation:

_theo_= 0.58 ns

_exp_= 1.28 ns

If we add one layer of hydration water to the volume of _-CD, the theoretical RCT would match the experimental RCT.
