Abstract

A new concept for the efficient synthesis of cationic dendrons, 4-tert-butyl-1-(3-(3, 4- dihydroxybenzamido) benzyl) pyridinium bromide (17), 1, 1′-(5-(3, 4-dihydroxybenzamido)- 1, 3-phenylene) bis (methylene) bis (4-tert-butylpyridinium) bromide (18), N 1, N 7-bis (3-(4- tert-butyl-pyridium-methyl) phenyl)-4-(3-(3-(4-tert-butyl-pyridinium-methyl) phenyl-amino)-3- oxopropyl)-4-(3, 4-dihydroxybenzamido) heptanediamide tribromide (19), and N 1, N 7-bis ...
