Divergent or Convergent ??
Roughly, two synthetic strategies of dendrimer
- Divergent method
- Convergent method

Divergent Method
Divergent synthesis needs many steps
Improving yields & eliminating purif. steps are the keys.
Convergent Method
Constructing from periphery toward the core
13
Convergent Method
However, high generation dendrimers are difficult by convergent method.
In the case of Frechets synthesis (JACS,1990)

Convergent Method
One solution is double-staged approach.

Perspectives
Dendrimers have potential to be prominent materials
for medical application.
But, still not reach the success of linear polymers
(I think) due to synthetic difficulties.
