Abstract
Cyclodextrins substituted with a fluorescent group can be employed as molecular sensors. The Figure shows how the fluorophore usually occupies the hydrophobic interior of the cyclodextrin host. On addition of a guest, the fluorophore is displaced from the cavity, resulting in a change in its spectral response. Recent progress with this and related molecular sensors is discussed. magnified imageKeywords
