Convergent Dendrons and Dendrimers: from Synthesis to Applications

In the last 12 years the field of hyperbranched polymers has been well established with a large variety of synthetic approaches and fundamental studies on structure and properties of these unique materials. However, new developments involving hyperbranched materials appeared recently, for example, different synthetic strategies, new reaction mechanisms, formation of more complex architectures, a deeper understanding of the branched structure and their kinetic development, and intensive studies on the material properties and possible applications. This demonstrates the high versatility and the possibilities that are still involved in hyperbranched polymers and render it one of the most active fields in polymer science with a very promising future. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Heterofunctional supports in enzyme immobilization: from traditional immobilization protocols to opportunities in tuning enzyme properties.

Dendritic polymers, perfectly branched dendrimers as well as hyperbranched materials, are discussed in some detail. The variety of the synthetic routes to perfect dendrimers and some highlights of the achieved structures document the rapid increase of activity in this field. Much information on growth, defects, dimensions, and properties of these globular macromolecules has be gained with special characterization techniques and their differences to linear polymers have become obvious. Hyperbranched polymers, which can be prepared in a one-step synthesis, cover almost the same structures as their perfect analogs and an interesting comparison of their properties can be made. High solubility and functionality, small dimensions, globular structure, and interesting viscosity behavior qualify both types of dendritic polymers for new applications. The transition from aesthetic macromolecules to commercially interesting materials is discussed with some examples.
