Abstract

The synthesis of linear, unnatural amines and carboxylic acids, based on amide connectivity and possessing identical repeat unit architecture to that of analogous dendrimers, was undertaken to assess and compare their physical characteristics. For the series, unexpected insoluble behavior was observed at low molecular weights in contrast to their branched counterparts or other known linear dendritic analogs. Molecular modeling suggests a high degree of intra‐ and intermolecular H‐bonding for the series. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2003)
