Design and Function of Dendrimer-Encapsulated Non-Heme Metalloprotein Mimi

有趣的“树枝状二聚体效应”时，观察到的聚（苄基醚）树枝状楔被引入到配体，如三氮杂环壬烷或吡唑。在前一种情况下，双（μ-氧代）-桥联的二铜配合物对热自分解的稳定性显著依赖于配体的体积。另一方面，由Cu（I）、Ag（I）或Au（I）与树枝状聚合物附加的吡唑配体组成的配位金属杂环根据树枝状聚合物的生成自组装成各种结构。这种树枝状分子连接的配体将在仿生化学，超分子化学和材料科学中成为一个强大的模块。

Interesting "dendimer effects" were observed when the poly (benzyl ether) dendritic wedges are introduced into ligands such as triazacyclononane or pyrazole. In the former case, the stability of the bis (μ-oxo)-bridged dicopper complexes against thermal self-decomposition significantly depended on the bulkiness of the ligand. On the other hand, coordination metallacycles composed of Cu (I), Ag (I), or Au (I) with dendrimer-appended pyazole ligand self-assembled to various structures depending on the generation of the dendrimer. Such dendrimer-attached ligands will be a powerful module in biomimetic chemistry, supramolecular chemistry, and material science.
