Description Cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7]), an uncharged and watersoluble
macrocyclic host, binds protonated amino saccharides
(d-glucosamine, d-galactosamine, d-mannosamine and 6-
amino-6-deoxy-d-glucose) with excellent affinity (Ka=103 to
104m�1). The host–guest complexation was confirmed by NMR
spectroscopy, isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), and
MALDI-TOF mass spectral analyses. NMR analyses revealed
that the amino saccharides, except d-mannosamine, are bound
as a-anomers within the CB[7] cavity. ITC analyses reveal that CB[7] has excellent affinity for binding amino saccharides in water. The maximum affinity was observed for d-galactosamine hydrochloride (Ka=1.6 � 104m�1). Such a strong affinity for any saccharide in water using a synthetic receptor is unprecedented, as is the supramolecular stabilization of an aanomer by the host.
