Up to fourth‐generation neutral phosphorus‐containing dendrimers are prepared in good yields in the synthesis outlined here. The only byproducts are NaCl and H2O, and the products contain highly reactive functional groups along the periphery. The first‐generation dendrimer is shown on the right.

Bis zur vierten Generation sind neutrale, phosphorhaltige Dendrimere auf dem hier beschriebenen Weg in guten Ausbeuten zugänglich. Als einzige Nebenprodukte entstehen NaCl und H2O, und die Produkte enthalten hochreaktive Funktionalitäten an der Peripherie. Rechts ist das Dendrimer der ersten Generation gezeigt.

Phosphorus-containing dendrimers 1-[G'(1)]-1-[G'(4)] (generation 1 to generation 4) possessing terminal aldehyde groups reacted with a variety of hydrazino compounds. Addition of hydrazine itself to 1-[G'(1)]-1-[G'(4)] afforded the corresponding dendrimers 2-[G(1)]-2-[G(4)] with hydrazono groups at the periphery. Addition of methylhydrazine to 1-[G'(1)], 1-[G'(4)] gave the dendrimers 3-[G(1)], 3-[G(4)]. A Schiff reaction between 1-[G'(1)]-1-[G'(4)] and 1-amino-4-(2-hydroxyethyl)piperazine led to dendrimers 5-[G(1)]-5-[G(4)] possessing up to 48 alcohol chain ends. Treatment of 1-[G'(1)], 1-[G'(3)] with fluorenone hydrazone gave rise to macromolecules 7-[G(1)], 7-[G(3)] while the reaction of 1-[G'(1)], 1-[G'(2)], 1-[G'(4)] with 4-aminobenzo-15-crown-5 afforded the macromolecules 9-[G(1)], 9-[G(2)], 9-[G(4)] in which up to 48 crown ether units are anchored on the surface. Wittig reactions between 1-[G'(1)]-1-[G'(4)] with (acetylmethylene)triphenylphosphorane (10) or (cyanomethylene)triphenylphosphorane (12) allowed the formation of dendrimers 11-[G(1)]-11-[G(4)] or 13-[G(1)], 13-[G(4)] with alpha,beta unsaturated ketones or cinnamonitrile units, respectively, on the surface. Disubstitution of terminal P(S)Cl(2) groups of dendrimers 1-[G(1)]-1-[G(7)] with allylamine, propargylamine, or N-(trimethylsilyl)imidazole easily occurred to give macromolecules 14-[G(1)]-14-[G(7)], 15-[G(1)], 15-[G(4)], 16-[G(1)], 16-[G(4)].
