New dendritic systems based on sterically hindered carbosilane units - Synthesis and application

Abstract

Carbosilane dendrimers of a novel architecture were prepared by setting up building blocks, incorporating sterically hindered tris(trimethylsilyl)methyl ligand. This method gives a possibility to synthesize abundantly functionalized low generation dendrimers. Such molecules, functionalized with vinyl groups in their outer sphere, were used for preparation of new Pt(0) complexes. ©ARKAT.
