A simple ‘one pot’ route to the hyperbranched analogues of Tomalia’s poly(amidoamine) dendrimers
Abstract
Melt polymerisation of N-acryloyl-1,2-diaminoethane hydrochloride gives the hyperbranched hydrochloride salt analogues of Tomalia’s poly(amidoamine) dendrimers, for which spectroscopic analysis establishes a branching ratio close to one.
