Abstract The synthesis of dendritic polypyridines is described. The dendrimers were prepared by a divergent approach using diethl 4‐hydroxypyridine‐2,6‐dicarboxylate 1 and 4‐hydroxy‐2,6‐bis(acetoxymethyl)pyridine 6 as building blocks. The transformation of the surface functionalities of the second generation dendrimer led to imperfections which did not allow us to further increase the size of the macromolecule.
