Design of a Peripheral Building Block for H-Bonded Dendritic Frameworks and Analysis of the Void Space in the Bulk Dendrimers

Abstract Three dendrimers, (t-Bu-G 2 N) 2 , CC(t-Bu-G 1 N) 3 and (t-Bu-G 1 N) 2 , with 3,5-di-tert-butyl amidobenzene as a common peripheral moiety were prepared in 64–83% yields and characterized. The bulk solids had high BET surface areas of 136–138 m2/g, which were similar for the three dendrimer...
