Cross-Linked Polybenzyl Ether and Polyglycerol Dendrimers for Monomolecular Imprinting

228 p.Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2007.Dendrimers containing a glycoside core were synthesized by direct coupling of a acid chloride dendron to a glycoside or by attachment of an azide dendron to a core containing alkyne groups using copper-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition. The glycoside dendrimers displayed chiral activity that increased after the dendrimers were cross-linked. However, after core removal the dendrimers were optically inactive.U of I OnlyRestricted to the U of I community idenfinitely during batch ingest of legacy ETD
