Abstract

We have designed two integrated experiments to serve as an introduction to the study of inclusion phenomena. The first one allows measurement, by UV-Vis spectrophotometry, of the equilibrium constant of the formation of the inclusion complex of an azo-dye (guest molecule) in an a-cyclodextrin (host molecule). In the second experiment, the kinetics of the formation of the inclusion complex of the guest molecule in the host molecule is studied.

      In a previous paper we proposed an experiment for detecting the inclusion of an azo-dye with a-cyclodextrin and measuring the equilibrium constant of the formation of the corresponding inclusion complex. In this article we study the kinetics of the ...
