Abstract

A full account is given of the preparation and use of TADDOLates, which are dendritically incorporated in polystyrene beads (Scheme 1). A series of styryl-substituted TADDOLs with flexible, rigid, or dendritically branching spacers between the TADDOL core and the styryl groups (2±16 in number) has been prepared (5±7, 20, 21, 26 in Schemes 2±4 and Fig. 1±3). These were used as cross-linkers in styrene-suspension polymerization, leading to beads ...
