Abstract/Summary:
Macromolecules with optoelectronic properties are of much interest due to their potential applications. In this document, the focus is placed on dendritic macromolecules based on triarylamines. Both the design and synthesis of the triarylamine repeat units and nonconjugated dendrimers are described. In addition, various relative quantum yield observations have been made in order to discern some of the characteristics of these systems. Comparisons of linear and dendritic systems are also discussed.
