Studies on the chirality of dendritic molecules

Studies on the chirality of dendritic molecules 4.2.2.1 Chiroptical studies 

The influence of the three-dimensional geometry of chiral elements on the macroscopic chiroptical properties of dendrimers can be studied by placing sui- 

The principal goal is to define those factors which lead to the macroscopic chirality of the dendrimer. Despite numerous studies on this topic, the relation between the molecular chirality of the dendritic building blocks and the macroscopic chirality of molecules has still not been completely elucidated [12]. Yet an understanding of this relation is important for the development of new materials, including polymers, whose properties and function depend upon their macroscopic chirality [13].
