Abstract

[reaction: see text] Bisfunctionalized dendritic multiester molecules were synthesized by combined protection-deprotection and divergent-convergent-divergent sequences in high yields leading to dendritic molecules that combine two functionally different surfaces, polar aliphatic arborol and nonpolar gallate ether moieties, resulting in a two-faced Janus molecule.
