Dendrimers represent a key stage in the ongoing evolution of macromolecular chemistry.
From the origins of polymer chemistry until 20 years ago, a major focus had been the …

Over the past decade, a number of excellent reviews on hyperbranched polymers and
dendrimers have been published covering the topics from details to highlights and …

A series of phthalocyanines containing four dendritic substituents with terminal ester or
carboxylate functionalities have been synthesized. These compounds having bulky …

We report a strongly interacting new dendrimer system with an extended spectroscopic unit
(coherent domain) beyond the trimer configuration. This report focuses on the mechanism of …

Novel rigid and optically active dendrimers containing cross-conjugated units are
synthesized from the coupling of phenylacetylene-based dendrons with an optically pure …

A series of 1, 3, 5-phenylene-based rigid dendritic porphyrins were synthesized by Suzuki
coupling between a porphyrin core and dendron units. The intramolecular energy transfer …

PAMAM dendrimers of the zeroth to fifth generation (G0− 5) have been peripherally modified
with phenyl, naphthyl, pyrenyl, and dansyl chromophores. Their fluorescence behaviors are …

Two dimers (2 and 3), dendritic tetramer (4), hexamer (5), and decamer (6) of benzo [1, 2-b:
3, 4-b′: 5, 6-b′′] trithiophene (BTT), a potential π-core unit with C 3 h symmetry, were …

This review describes two classes of vinyl monomers bearing chromophores and their
polymers based on the electron-accepting (A) or electron-donating (D) properties of vinyl …

Owing to their unique geometric and energetic properties, dendrimeric molecules have
received much attention in recent years. These molecules offer great potential, ranging from …
