Structurally flawless and highly functional polyester dendrimers were obtained by a divergent growth approach through fluoride‐promoted esterifications of hydroxy‐functionalized scaffolds with imidazolide‐activated monomers. In their Communication on page 2416 ff., M. Malkoch and co‐workers describe the preparation of sixth‐generation dendrimers on a large scale, in less than 24 hours, and under the conditions of green chemistry.
