Abstract

Multi-arm star polymers are derived from silicon containing dendrimers and have arms containing the moiety where each R′ can be the same or different and is an alkyl group containing 1-6 carbon atoms such as methyl and ethyl or an aryl group such as phenyl; R″ is alkylene radical —(CH2)a— in which a has a value of 2 or 3; and R′″ is the —(CH2)bCH3 group in which b has a value of 1-50. These compositions can be used for dissolving metals and other electrophiles.
