The invention provides a composition containing particulate composite of a polymer and a therapeutic agent. The composition also contains a complexing agent. The polymer interacts with the complexing agent in a host-guest or a guest-host interaction to form an inclusion complex. A therapeutic composition of the invention may be used to deliver the therapeutic agent and to treat various disorders. Both the polymer of the particulate composite and the complexing agent may be used to introduce functionality into the therapeutic composition. The invention also relates to a method of preparing a composition. The method combines a therapeutic agent, a polymer having host or guest functionality, and a complexing agent having guest or host functionality to form the therapeutic composition. The complexing agent forms an inclusion complex with the polymer. The invention also relates to a method of delivering a therapeutic agent. According to the method, a therapeutically effective amount of a therapeutic composition of the invention is administered to a mammal (e.g. person or animal) in recognized need of the therapeutic. Also disclosed are compounds having the formula:

The invention relates to the shape selective acylation of an organic compound. In particular, the invention describes a process for such acylation wherein the process comprises reducing the number of surface acid sites without dealuminations on at least a portion of the surface of a zeolite and acylating the organic compound in the presence of the zeolite. The organic compounds used in the invention include, for example, olefins, aromatic hydrocarbons, aromatic heterocyclic compounds, and phenolic compounds wherein the organic group may be substituted or unsubstituted. The zeolite may be any natural or synthetic zeolite with a unidimensional or multidimensional network, for example a two-dimensional, or three-dimensional network, or any molecular sieve with structural features similar to these.
