Dendronization of Ethyl Cellulose<br />
All of the synthetic procedures were carried out several times <strong>and</strong> can be considered<br />
optimized. The characterization of the first <strong>and</strong> second generation amide-containing<br />
dendrons was accomplished by 1 H <strong>and</strong> 13 C NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, <strong>and</strong><br />
elemental analysis.<br />
<strong>Synthesis</strong> of Dendronized Ethyl Cellulose. The incorporation of dendritic<br />
moieties (G1-a- ІІ–G1-c-ІІ <strong>and</strong> G2-a-ІІ–G2-c-ІІ) into ethyl cellulose (1) was carried<br />
out by coupling the carboxyl termini of dendrons to the hydroxy functionalities of<br />
ethyl cellulose; N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-N′-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride<br />
(EDC·HCl) was employed as a condensating agent <strong>and</strong> 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine<br />
