Organometallic Dendrimers: Design, Redox Properties and Catalytic Functions

  • Conference paper
  • First Online:
Complexity in Chemistry and Beyond: Interplay Theory and Experiment

Abstract

The divergent synthesis, properties and functions of dendrimers terminated by metallocenyl redox groups are briefly illustrated in this micro-review, with emphasis on molecular electronics, sensing with regenerable derivatized Pt electrodes and efficient catalysis with dendrimer-stabilized Pd nanoparticles.
