Abstract This Microreview presents a concise overview of the different synthetic approaches that have been applied to porphyrin dendrimers over the years, with the porphyrin macrocycle(s) being embedded variously as the dendritic cores, at the peripheries, within the branching units, or spread throughout entire dendritic architectures.
