Part of the book series: Advances in Silicon Science ((ADSS,volume 2))

Silicon can play a variety of different roles when incorporated in or combined with otherwise “purely” organic dendritic branch cells which in this chapter are meant to include those that contain carbon and some combination of hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur. As a result, a diversity of compositional and architectural hybrid dendrimers can be formed, containing one or more of the following types of building blocks (see Fig. 11.1):

  1. (a)

    Silicon atoms (di-, tri- or tetra-functional) (see Chapters 2–5) or silicon-containing groups (e.g., cyclic siloxanes, see Chapter 6, or polyhedral oligosilsesquioxanes [POSS], see Chapter 7) as dendrimer cores.

  2. (b)

    Silicon atoms in dendrimer interiors as (see Chapter 1)

    1. (b1)

      Branch extenders (i.e., constitutive elements of branches with 1→1 multiplicity between branch junctures).

    2. (b2)

      Branch junctures with di- (1→2) or tri- (1→3) branching multiplicity.

  3. (c)

    Reactive or non-reactive (inert) silicon-containing end-groups providing organic dendrimers with properties characteristic for organo-silicon compounds.

  4. (d)

    Copolymeric dendrimers having silicon-containing and “purely” organic branch cells organized either in a radially layered or segmented (i.e., individual dendrons of different compositions) architectural arrangement (see below and also Chapter 2).

Because of these structural differences, the properties of the resulting dendrimers may range from being quite similar to those of their purely organic counterparts to being dramatically different from them. Hence, the introduction of silicon into organic dendritic structures opens up vast new areas of molecular design and engineering aimed at unique new materials for specific targeted applications.
