Abstract

Synthesizing s-triazine dendrimers are interesting as they can be synthesized easily, contain diversity in composition, and have a basic potential for molecular recognition. Triazine trichloride is the molecule of choice for synthesizing a novel class of dendrimers as it possesses certain remarkable characteristics like the potential to expand the chemical functionality by nucleophilic aromatic substitution reactions at various temperatures to give the desired dendrimer.

Keywords: Dendrimers, s-Triazine, nucleophilic aromatic substitution, Triazine trichloride (Tz tde), temperature, diversity in composition.
