Sunamoto et al. 94) have studied the reaction of (14) with 2,4-dinitro-phenyl sulfate in aqueous organic solvent with 0.1 A sodiiun hydroxide. The rate of esterolysis by (14) was greater than the rate of the reaction catalyzed by -cyclodextrin. Better binding by the paracyclophane cavity and the greater nucleophilicity of the oxime group as compared to the secondary hydroxyl group of jS-cycdextrin were cited to explain the difference in catalytic efficiency. 

Complexes of Rh, Pt, and Pd with the same ligands were active in the biphasic hydrogenation of chloro- and bromonitrobenzenes. At 80-100 °C and 20 bar H2 pressure the main products were the corresponding chloro-and bromoanilines, up to 99.8 % yield (Scheme 10.5) [12]. The selectivity of similar reactions catalyzed by a Rh/TPPTS was only about 90 %, i.e. the attached cyclodextrin moiety further decreased the extent of hydrodehalogenation, probably by complexation of the halonitroaromatic substrate. 

Preparation and catalysis of disubstituted cyclodextrin as an excellent enzyme model is demonstrated by the RNAase model reported by Breslow et al. (68, 83). The enzyme models 10 and II, derived from 1, show a bellshaped pH versus rate profile for the hydrolysis of the cyclic phosphate of 4-terf-butylcatechol, indicating the cooperative catalysis by two imidazole groups (Fig. 21). The reactions catalyzed by 10 and II give exclusively 12 and 13, respectively. This interesting specificity indicates that the geometry of the P—O bond cleavage is quite different from each other. Another interesting enzyme-like kinetic behavior that these hosts exhibited is successful demonstration of the so-called bell-shaped pH profile.

Hydrohalogenation of crotonic acid in a crystalline a-cyclodextrin complex gives ( + )-(S)-3-bromobutanoic acid with 58% enantiomeric excess146. Asymmetric reactions catalyzed by cyclodcxtrin have been attempted in solution but all of these reactions afforded the products in low optical yields. Exposure of crystalline cyclodextrin complexes to gaseous hydrogen bromide and hydrogen chloride at 20 °C gives better optical yields.

We examined exchange of deuterium into the methyl group of ketone 12 catalyzed by the three isomers of cyclodextrin bisimidazole and also by p-cyclodextrin monoimidazole (5) in D2O solution with 14% CD3OD, buffered at pH 6.2 with phosphate buffer, at 35 °C [12]. We saw essentially no deuterium incorporation into the methyl group over 10 hours with the buffer alone, or the buffer with added simple cyclodextrin. However, all four of the cyclodextrin derivatives (5,6,7, and 8) catalyzed significant deuterium incorporation into the methyl group over the same period. The AB (6) and AC (7) isomers were only marginally more effective than was the monoimidazole catalyst, but the AD isomer 8 was clearly better. A pH vs rate plot for the reaction catalyzed by the AD isomer showed a bell-shaped curve with a rate maximum near pH 6.2, as expected for bifunctional catalysis, while the reaction catalyzed by cyclodextrin-6-imidazole 5 showed a simple increase to a plateau at pH above 7.5, as expected for monofunctional base catalysis.

A branched cyclodextrin, 6-0-a-maltosyl cyclodextrin (G2-CD), was produced from a-D-maltosyl fluoride and a cyclodextrin by the transglycosylation reaction catalyzed by pullulanase or isoamylase [100, 101]. 

Oxymercuration/demercuration provides a milder alternative for the conventional acid-catalyzed hydration of alkenes. The reaction also provides the Markovnikov regiochemistry for unsymmetrical alkenes.33 Interestingly, an enantioselective/inverse phase-transfer catalysis (IPTC) reaction for the Markovnikov hydration of double bonds by an oxymercuration-demercuration reaction with cyclodextrins as catalysts was recently reported.34 Relative to the more common phase-transfer...
