Thermally Responsive Dendrons and Dendrimers Based on Reversible Furan-Maleimide Diels−Alder Adducts

Abstract
Benzyl aryl ether dendrons and dendrimers containing thermally reversible furan-maleimide Diels−Alder adducts were prepared up to the third generation. The covalent cleavage and reassembly of the dendrons and dendrimers were evaluated by 1H NMR.
