Designing Dendrimers to Offer Micelle-Type Nanocontainers
King, Angela G.
Journal of Chemical Education, v82 n5 p666 May 2005
The properties of a dendrimer with hydrophobic and hydrophilic substituents on an orthogonal plane is synthesized and studied. The resulting polymer contains one of the substituents in its concave interior and the other at the convex surface and the design promotes micelle-like behavior in polar solvent and inverted micelle arrangement in non-polar solvent.
