A series of semiempirical molecular orbital calculations using the AM1 method were performed on the inclusion complexes of ␣and -cyclodextrin with benzoic acid and phenol in the ''head-first'' and ''tail-first'' positions. The AM1 results show that ␣-cyclodextrin complexes with both guest compounds

✦ Synopsis
The theory of the potentiometric method for studying complexes of ionizable substrates was developed, and graphical techniques are described for obtaining stability constant estimations from the data. The method described is for a system in which the conjugate acid and base forms of the substrate (S) are capable of forming 1:l (SL) and 1:2 (SL:!) complexes with the ligand (L). It was applied to complexes of a-cyclodextrin (cyclohexaamylose) with 10 para-substituted benzoic acid derivatives. Letting Klla and K1za be stability constants for the conjugate acid forms of the substrates, and Kllb, Kl2b for the conjugate base forms, it was found that K12b is zero for all substrates, K1za is zero for seven of the substrates, and Klla > Kllb in every case. Hammett plots yielded p l l a and P l l b values of -0.31 and 0.77, respectively, which was interpreted to mean that Klla mainly represents binding at the carboxylic acid site, and Kllb describes binding at the site of the para-substituent. This model of the complexing suggests that K1za represents binding at the para-substituent, and therefore K1za should vary roughly with substituent as Kllb does; this trend was observed.
