Modulation of charge transfer association and photo-induced electron transfer by steric encumbrance in Frechet-type viologen dendrimer
The first and second generation of Frechet-type dendrimer with a viologen core have been prepared; it has been observed that the association constant and the electron transfer quenching of these compounds with anthracene is modulated by the size of the polyether branches.
