Abstract
Various methods of synthesis of phosphorus‐containing dendrimers are described. The reactivity of several of these macromolecules is then studied at several levels, mainly on the surface, and also at the level of the branches and of the core. Functionalizations confer to these macromolecules interesting properties, and allow the development of new applications, which are emphasized in this review. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

In most cases, the water solubility of phosphorus-containing dendrimers is mainly due to the presence of hydrophilic end groups, which bear either positive or negative charges. In the first part of this paper, several methods of synthesis and functionalization of phosphorus dendrimers are described
