  • Publication number: 20090069561
    Abstract: The high efficiency and fidelity of click chemistry permits a large number of diverse dendrimers encompassing a wide variety of functionalities at the chain ends, repeat units, and/or core to be prepared. Almost quantitative yields were obtained during the synthesis. In some cases, filtration or solvent extraction was the only method required for purification. These features represent a significant advancement in dendrimer chemistry and demonstrate an evolving synergy between organic chemistry and functional materials.
