Frechet-type benzyl ether dendrons of second and third generations with a carboxyl group (G2, G3) at the apex site could attach to poly(4-vinylpyridine) (PVP), forming hydrogen-bonded dendronized polymers (HB denpols) in their common solvent, chloroform. The HB denpols show unique self-assembly behavior, forming vesicles in the common solvent under ultrasonic treatment. The structure and morphology of the vesicles were characterized by dynamic light scattering (DLS), static light scattering (SLS), SEM, TEM, and AFM. The size of the vesicles decreases and the thickness of the vascular membrane increases as the molar ratio of Gx/PVP increases. The hydrogen bonding. π-π aromatic stacking of the dendrons. and the considerable difference in architecture between the dendron Gx and PVP are the main factors facilitating the assembly of the HB denpols in the common solvent.

We report the synthesis, gelation and photophysical properties of luminescent AB3 type poly(aryl ether) dendron derivatives in the absence of conventional multi-interactive gelation motifs. The gelation process is controlled through employing partial polar solvent milieu, which significantly enhances the propensity of π-π interaction between the aryl units present in the system. The self-assembly leads to unprecedented gelation through entrapping solvent molecules in the fibrillar arrangement of poly(aryl ether) units. The strategy was further utilized to prepare an excimer based photoluminescent gel through incorporating anthracene units in the dendrons. The close proximity between the anthracene units in the gel renders the formation of anthracene excimers at room temperature, resulting in the emission of bright green light from the gel, upon UV excitation. The study suggests that the size and packing of the self-assembled fibre can be controlled by the generation and functional groups present in the dendron. Furthermore, the strategy envisages an easy approach to generate fluorescent Low Molecular-mass Organic Gelator (LMOG) through incorporating poly cyclic aromatic hydrocarbon units to the poly(aryl ether) dendrons, since the self-assembly is largely guided by π-π interactions.

Two series of first to third generation (G1-G3) oligoether dendrimers, one hearing a shorter spacer chain (C-O) and the other having a longer spacer branch (C-C-C-O) were prepared. Both series of compounds, containing two reactive C≡CH moieties on the dendrimer surface, were used as macromonomers and copolymerized with trans-[Pt(PEt3)2Cl2] to form organometallic poly(dendrimer)s by an outer-sphere-outer-sphere connection strategy. It was found that concentration of monomer used in the polymerization, the dendrimer generation, and, most strikingly, the length of the spacer were key factors that determined the polymerization efficiency. Hence, the structurally more rigid and compact C-O linked dendrimers formed poly(dendrimer)s with a higher degree of polymerization than the structurally less rigid and more bulky C-C-C-O dendrimers. This result was due to the higher tendency to form cyclic oligomers in the latter series of compounds. In addition, the differences in the polymerization efficiency among the three generations of dendrimers could be explained by the gradual decrease of reactive functional group density on the dendrimer surface.

The catalytic enantioselective addition of different organozinc reagents, such as alkyl or in situ generated phenylzinc derivatives to simple aryl ketones, was accomplished using titanium tetraisopropoxide and chiral ligands derived from trans-1-arenesulf
