It is not a coincidence that both chirality and noncovalent interactions are ubiquitous in
nature and synthetic molecular systems. Noncovalent interactivity between chiral molecules …

Traditional descriptions of the hydrophobic effect on the basis of entropic arguments or the
calculation of solvent‐occupied surfaces must be questioned in view of new results obtained …

Cyclodextrins are frequently used as building blocks, because they can be linked both
covalently and noncovalently with specificity. Thus one, two, three, seven, fourteen …

We find, through atomistic molecular dynamics simulation of native cyclodextrins (CDs) in
water, that although the outer surface of a CD appears like a truncated cone, the inner cavity …

If the amylose fraction of starch is degraded by glucosyltransferases, one or several turns of
the amylose helix are hydrolyzed off and their ends are joined together, thereby producing …

To understand further, and to utilize, the interactions across protein-protein interfaces, we
carried out an analysis of the hydrogen bonds and of the salt bridges in a collection of 319 …

Crystal structure analysis of eight 1, 3-diaryl-1, 3-propanedione enols has been
accomplished with the aim of investigating in more detail the intramolecular hydrogen txmd …

CDs are cyclic oligosaccharides consisting of α‐d‐glucopyranosyl units linked through 1, 4‐
linkages, which are obtained from enzymatic degradation of starch. The coexistence of …

This review examines the literature concerning the thermal properties of natural and
semisynthetic cyclodextrins and their inclusion compounds. Particular emphasis is given to …

Being the main structural component in plants, cellulose is by far the most abundant organic
polymer on earth. The highest quantity of cellulose is found in the secondary walls of higher …
