J. Bettenhausen et P. Strohriegl, DENDRIMERS WITH 1,3,4-OXADIAZOLE UNITS .1. SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION, Macromolecular rapid communications, 17(9), 1996, pp. 623-631
The synthesis and characterization of two unsymmetrically substituted
star-shaped oxadiazoles and of a dendrimer of the first generation are
described. The key step in the synthesis is the intramolecular ring t
ransformation of aromatic tetrazoles. The well-defined compounds form
stable amorphous glasses with high glass transition temperatures up to
222 degrees C. They are promising candidates for organic light emitti
ng diodes.
