Abstract

Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-supported dendrimers have been synthesized using 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine (TCT) as dendrons and tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane as linkers with high loading capacity, excellent solubility and thermal stability by divergent method. The new synthesized PEG-supported G2.0 dendrimer has 10 times as large functional group loading capacity as commercial PEG3400 with overall yield 44.0%.
