Poly(amidoamine) dendrimers with phenyl shells: fluorescence and aggregation behavior

Effect of solvent-controlled aggregation on the intrinsic emission properties of PAMAM dendrimers

“…In a separate attempt, Masuhara and co-workers [41] have described the formation of p-stacked dendrimeric aggregates from wire type dendrimers. Aggregation and fluorescence from PAMAM dendrimers, containing peripheral phenyl groups, were recently reported by Wei and co-workers [42] and p-stacking tendency of phenyl groups was attributed as the driving force for the aggregation.…”

A new type of polymer carbon dots with high quantum yield: From synthesis to investigation on fluorescence mechanism

“…Recent researches found that some non-conjugated polymers were instinctively emissive. Among all, poly(amido amine)s were typical models [25][26][27][28][29], which didn't own common fluorophores but still highly emissive in solution. The hyperbranched structure was inferred as an important factor for the emission [30].…”

“…For related literature, see: Ahmed et al (2001); Bucourt & Hainaut (1965); Dunitz & Strickler (1966); Grabchev et al (2003); Luger et al (1972); Wang et al (2004); van Koningsveld & Jansen (1984).…”

“…Comment PAMAM (poly(amidoamine)) dendrimers have attracted much interest for their symmetry, high degree of branching and high density of terminal functional groups, which can participate in different reactions. The modification of the periphery of PAMAM dendrimers, aimed to change their physical or chemical properties, have been reported recently (Grabchev et al,2003;Ahmed et al,2001;Wang et al,2004). To improve the lipophilicity of PAMAM dendrimers and provide a new type of linker with special stereostructure, a series of cyclohexane derivatives were synthesized.…”
