Abstract

Ferrocene-cored dendrimers incorporating 1,2-isopropylidenefuranose capped furanoside branches were synthesized and their electrochemical properties were studied. It was observed that the dendritic environment in the ferrocene dendrimers increased the E 1/2 values with increase in bulk of the dendrimer, as expected. The reversible nature of the redox process was maintained in all the dendrimers.
