Abstract

The possibility of modified cyclodextrin, heptakis (2,3,6-tri-O-acetyl)-β-cyclodextrin (TA-β-CD) to act as extracting agent for dopamine from aqueous phase into the organic phase has been investigated. Thus, by means of an ion-pairing mechanism, dopamine was extracted by modified cyclodextrin in the presence of counter ions such as picrate and tropaeolin 00. The results showed that the modified cyclodextrin can be used as extractant for dopamine. Some aspects of dopamine extractability concerning the pH and the nature of anion used as counter ion have been studied.
