Abstract:
A polyglycerol dendrimer unimolecularly imprinted with D-(-)-fructose (Fru) was synthesized. The dendrimer formed adducts with several monosaccharides, Fru, D-(+)-galactose, D-(+)-glucose, D-(+)-mannose, and methyl-alpha-D-mannopyranoside (MMan), by removal of four water molecules. The dendrimer preferred Fru in the absence of N,N,N',N'-tetramethylmethylenediamine (TMDAM), whereas it preferred MMan in the presence of TMDAM.
