Abstract

New non-functional methylsiloxane dendrimers possessing a sparse structure with a trimethylsiloxy outer layer containing a flexible dimethylsiloxane link between branch points have been synthesized. Two alternative synthetic protocols were employed, namely, a divergent scheme comprising an additional stage of generating a spacer –OSiMe 2 – group with sodium ethoxy(dimethyl)silanolate, and a hybrid method using monofunctional dendrons with a sparse structure.
