Abstract

The unique properties of dendritic amphiphiles—selfassembly, nano-encapsulation, molecular recognition, and biomimics—have led to a growing interest in the development of new families of these macromolecules. The peripheral hydrophobic modification of commercially available, water-soluble poly(propylene imine) and poly(amidoamine) dendrimers has proven to be a convenient strategy for producing amphiphilic dendrimers in which all or some of the surface groups are hydrophobized.
