High rate convergent synthesis and deposition of polyamide dendrimers using a continuous-flow microreactor
Polyamide dendrons and dendrimers have been synthesized using a continuous-flow microreactor. Furthermore, the synthesized polyamide dendron was deposited onto functionalized glass surface through the formation of amide bond using a facile coupling procedure via a microreactor. The dendron deposition process involved two major steps: the functionalization of the native glass surface using 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane, and followed by coupling of the synthesized polyamide dendron with an aminosilanised surface. Compared with the conventional synthesis method, the microreactor provides a comparable yield, selectivity and a considerably faster synthesis rate. Nanostructured polyamide G1 dendron thin films could be deposited using an impinging flux from this microreactor in minutes.
