The invention relates to a highly regioselective method for preparing a derivative of cyclodextrin, beta-cyclodextrin in particular, monosulfonylated at C-6, in which said cyclodextrin is caused to react with a sulfonylation agent, in an alkaline aqueous solution, in the presence of a metal salt able to form a co-ordination complex with the secondary hydroxyl groups of the cyclodextrin, and after the reaction said cyclodextrin derivative monosulfonylated at C-6 is recovered from the reaction mixture.The monosulfonylated derivatives of cyclodextrins find particular application as starting material for access to monofunctionalized derivatives of cyclodextrins. |
