We have observed the first example of a cyclodextrininduced color change of polymerized diacetylene film sensor. The PDA film, prepared from a diacetylene monomer containing a terminal anilide moiety was found to preferentially interact with a-cyclodextrin causing a color transition which is both time and concentration dependent.
