Abstract
Heterogeneous electron-transfer rates in metal tris(bipyridine) core dendrimers were measured using Osteryoung square-wave voltammetry. Rates decreased with generation, and this decrease could be correlated with the molecular weight increase. These results indicate that the coordination number around the redox center did not play any special role in sterically encapsulating the redox center.Keywords
