Preferred Label : cyclodextrins;
IUPAC definition : Cyclic oligoglucosides containing 5 to i ca /i . 10 glucose residues in which an
enclosed tubular space allows reception of a guest molecule to form a clathrate. The
synonymous term Schardinger dextrins is not recommended. (α-Cyclodextrin has 6 glucose
residues; β-cyclodextrin has 7.) Semi-systematically α-cyclodextrin is called cyclomaltohexaose.;
