Abstract:
We report construction of monodisperse PAMAM-type dendrimers based on a dodecahydroxy closo-dodecaborane scaffold. The ideal sphericity and high functional group density of the icosahedral core permits ready access to hybrid dendrimers (dendritic closomers) having rigid, uniformly shaped exterior surfaces.
