Approaches to the Functionalization of Organosilicon Dendrones Based on Limonene

Previously, we reported the synthesis of carbosilane and carbosilane-siloxane dendrons of various generations based limonene, a natural terpene. Limonene that contains two double bonds, namely cyclohexene and isoprenyl ones, was shown to undergo regioselective hydrosilylation exclusively at its isop...

description Previously, we reported the synthesis of carbosilane and carbosilane-siloxane dendrons of various generations based limonene, a natural terpene. Limonene that contains two double bonds, namely cyclohexene and isoprenyl ones, was shown to undergo regioselective hydrosilylation exclusively at its isoprenyl double bond. This finding was used to prepare carbosilane dendrons (CDs) with a limonene moiety at the focal point. In this study, we present variants for the functionalization of the cyclohexene double bond by an epoxidation reaction in order to use the resulting dendrons for the preparation of various macromolecular objects, including Janus dendrimers (JDs), dendronized polymers, and macroinitiators. Moreover, it was shown that dendrons with peripheral azide functions could be obtained. These methods offer both the possibilities of the further growth of branches and the addition of polymers with a different nature by the azide–alkyne cycloaddition reaction.
