Molecular jewelry! Up to 880 dendrimer beads can be joined together with Pt complexes to make a long “necklace” of dendrimers (see picture). The polymerization of dendrimers that contain reactive functional subunits on the dendrimer surface opens a new route to a novel class of dendronized polymers of high molecular weights and in good yields.
