Cyclodextrin dimers in which the two units are linked by various spacers have shown strong binding of ditopic substrates such as bis-(p-nitrophenyl) phosphate and other substrates carrying two phenyl groups or substituted phenyl groups. 1-4 However, such cyclodextrin dimers should also be very effective at binding long hydrophobic molecules such as sterols. For example, cholesterol (6) is ca. 15 Å long, including the side chain, while a β-cyclodextrin ring is ca. 7.8 Å high (Scheme 1). Thus a cyclodextrin dimer with a very short linker between the two rings might well be able to bind a cholesterol molecule cooperatively into the two cyclodextrin rings. We have found that this is the case.We constructed dimer 1 in 44% yield by heating 6-iodo-6-deoxycycloheptaamylose with sodium sulfide. 5 The compound had the expected 1H-NMR spectrum and the correct FAB-MS spectrum with M+ 1) 2268. It was a good ligand (Table 1) for BNS 4, and particularly for the bis (adamantylethyl) phos-
