✦ Synopsis
Cyclohexaamylose hydrolyzed u-naphthyl acetates more rapidly than the corresponding 8-isomers, a phenomenon termed "e-selectivity", while cyclooctaamylose showed "8-selectivity" and the selectivity of cycloheptaamylose fell between those of cyclohexa-and cycloocta-amyloses.
On the hydrolyses of substituted phenyl acetates by cyclohexaamylose or cycloheptaamylose, meta-substituted phenyl esters were more rapidly hydrolyzed 1 than the corresponding para-isomers, a phenomenon termed "meta-selectivity" .
This selectivity is attributed to the structure of the inclusion complex'. Therefore, in the case of the hydrolysis of the substrate which has more than two structures of productive inclusion-complexing, the selectivity is expected to depend on the cavity size of the cycloamylose.
In this paper, we wish to demonstrate "a/8-selectivity" in hydrolyses of o-or 8-naphthyl acetates (la-c and 2c,d) by cyclohexa-, cyclohepta-, and
