On-surface synthesis of planar dendrimers via divergent cross-coupling reaction
Although many strategies exist to synthesize dendrimers in solution, the synthesis of planar dendrimers on a surface has proven challenging. Here, the authors produce planar dendrimers through a divergent on-surface cross-coupling reaction between one aryl bromide and two isocyanides, which enables...

| Summary: | Although many strategies exist to synthesize dendrimers in solution, the synthesis of planar dendrimers on a surface has proven challenging. Here, the authors produce planar dendrimers through a divergent on-surface cross-coupling reaction between one aryl bromide and two isocyanides, which enables the growth of branches from a single reactive site. |
