Efficient synthesis of dendrimersvia a thiol–yne and esterification process and their potential application in the delivery of platinum anti-cancer drugs

Abstract

A combination of thiol–yne chemistry and esterification reactions were successfully applied for the preparation of dendrimers with an array of terminal functionalities via the divergent growth strategy; maximizing the number of reactive chain ends whilst minimizing the number of reaction steps required in the process.
