Carbosilane and Carbosiloxane Dendrimers

Abstract: This review focuses on novel carbosilane dendrimers containing branches with Si-C and Si-O-C bonds. Introduction of organic moieties into the dendrimers is performed by hydrosilation of carbon-carbon double/triple bonds. Versatile organic or organometallic moieties are introduced onto the peripheral regions of dendrimers by coupling and complexation reactions, which clearly demonstrates their potential for variation.

“…Various strategies for multiarm star synthesis have been developed: convergent (arm-first) and divergent (core-first), as well as a combination of these two approaches [ 20 ]. The structures obtained with their help had properties so different from classical polymers that it was proposed to refer to them as macromolecular nanoobjects, or macromolecular particles, along with dendrimers, dense molecular brushes, and nanogels [ 21 , 22 ]. The boundary between low-arm stars that belong to branched polymers and multiarm stars can be determined using the α coefficient of the Mark–Kuhn–Houwink equation [η] = K η M α .…”

“…Many scientists have been interested in silsesquioxane cage materials with a well-defined structure because such materials have a low dielectric constant and excellent thermal stability [1,2,3,4,5,6,7]. Additionally, these compounds find a wide range of applications in polymers [8,9,10,11], sensors [12], catalysis [7,8,9,13], organic light-emitting diodes [14], host-guest complexes [15,16], and porous materials [17].…”

Most of the double-decker silsesquioxanes (DDSQ) [10,11,14,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26] and polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes [7,8,9,12,13,15,16,17,27,28,29] have a symmetrical structure with the same organic functional group on both sides.…”

“…Dendrimers are monodisperse large molecules composed of two or more tree‐like dendrons. They are highly branched macromolecules, obtained by a sequence of reaction steps and are characterized by their structure perfection. A dendrimer is usually symmetric around the core and often accept a spherical three dimensional morphology.…”
