Abstract

The present invention provides new reagents and methods which allow the assembly of large, branched structures from simple but versatile building blocks. The invention discloses dendrimers obtainable by the reaction of a core molecule having at least two reactive groups sequentially with doubling, trebling or more, branching synthons and optionally also with nonbranching synthons, to provide a multimeric structure having branched units and optionally also non-branched units, and a plurality of blocked or unblocked functional groups at the outer ends of the structure.
