Hyperbranched polyimides modified with different terminal groups were obtained from precursors, anhydride- and aminoterminated hyperbranched poly(amic acid)s from polymerization of A2 + B3 system. From gel permeation chromatograrn (GPC) characterization, representative products had high molecular weight. All polymers had good solubility in CHCl3, DMF and tetrahydrofuran (THF), and performed no detective Tgs in the range of 50-300 ℃ and high Tds above 455 ℃ when 5% weight loss.展开更多

The dendronized 9,10-dihydroanthracen-9-ols 4, having high electron densities in the benzene rings of the Fréchet-type dendrons, exhibited in the presence of acid a quantitative transannular ring closure to the corresponding dendritic homotriptycenes. The electron-donating Fréchet-type dendrons enabled the intramolecular FC alkylation by a regioselective 1,7-elimination of H2O.展开更多
