Molecular mechanics calculations were employed to study the inclusion of 2-methyl naphthoate in alpha- and beta-cyclodextrin in vacuo and in the presence of water as a solvent. The driving forces for complexation are dominated by nonbonded van der Waals host:guest interactions in both environments.

✦ Synopsis
The inclusion complexes of cyclomaltoheptaose (beta CD) and heptakis(2,3,6-tri-O-methyl)cyclomaltoheptaose (TM-beta CD) with the four major components of the pheromone of the olive fruit fly (Dacus oleae), namely 1,7-dioxaspiro[5.5]undecane, (-)-alpha-pinene, nonanal, and ethyl dodecanoate, and the complex of heptakis(2,6-di-O-methyl)cyclomaltoheptaose (DM-beta CD) with 1,7-dioxaspiro[5.5]undecane were studied. The complexes were characterised in the solid state by differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray powder diffraction. In aqueous solution, the structure of the complexes was investigated by 1H NMR spectroscopy. In solution, 1,7-dioxaspiro[5.5]undecane, (-)-alpha-pinene, and nonanal enter the cavity of the cyclo-oligosaccharides. Association constants for some of these complexes were also measured. The complexes of ethyl dodecanoate did not provide evidence of their structure in solution. This was attributed to the existence of negligible amounts of these complexes in water due to the combined effects of low solubility and low association constant.
