Results and Discussion
Scheme 1 and Scheme 2 summarise the preparation of the dendrimer G6 with diphenylsilanediol as the core unit. The first step of this synthesis is a condensation reaction between diphenyl silanol and POCl3 in the presence of triethylamine at 0 to −15 °C to afford the product G1. In
