Description

Heptakis-6-Iodo-6-Deoxy-β-Cyclodextrin is a specifically functionalized cyclodextrin derivative where all seven primary hydroxyl groups at the 6-position of the β-cyclodextrin core are substituted with iodine atoms. This modification creates a powerful host molecule with enhanced binding properties for hydrophobic guest compounds in aqueous solutions, making it a critical tool for molecular encapsulation and solubility enhancement. It is essential for researchers and formulators in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty chemical industries who require precise control over guest-host interactions. The compound is supplied with full analytical documentation to ensure batch-to-batch consistency for your critical applications.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Research & Formulation: Acts as a complexing agent to improve the aqueous solubility, stability, and bioavailability of poorly soluble active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
• Catalysis & Chemical Synthesis: Serves as a molecular scaffold or reaction cavity to facilitate selective organic transformations and stabilize reactive intermediates.
• Analytical Chemistry: Used as a chiral selector or stationary phase modifier in capillary electrophoresis and chromatography for enantiomer separation.
• Agrochemical Delivery Systems: Enhances the solubility and controlled release of pesticides and herbicides, improving their efficacy and environmental profile.
• Material Science: Incorporated into polymers and coatings to create functional materials with specific molecular recognition properties.
• Food & Flavor Technology: Employed to encapsulate and protect sensitive flavors, fragrances, and nutrients from degradation.
