Abstract
Poly(propylene imine) dendrimers with amino chain ends have been used for the preparation of hydrophobic star polymers with hydrophilic dendritic cores. The unsaturated end groups of polyisobutylene (PIB) were transformed into reactive anhydride end groups by an "ene" reaction with maleic anhydride, and the resulting functionalized PIB was then reacted with dendrimers to afford dendrimer-PIB star copolymers.
