Abstract: Block codendrimers Gx-PBE-b-Gx-PMPA were synthesized through a coupling reaction between Gx-PBE dendrons and Gx-PMPA dendrons(x=1, 2, 3). Amphiphlic block codendrimers Gx-PBE-b-Gx-PMPA(OH)x2 were further prepared through removing acetonide protecting groups on the periphery of the Gx-PMPA blocks. Their chemical structures were characterized by 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectroscopies, MALDI-TOF(or FD) mass spectroscopy and FTIR spectroscopy. Meanwhile, FTIR spectrometer equipped with a heating stage was used to study the change of the hydrogen bonds in-between hydroxyl groups with increasing temperature. A widened transition region with increasing dendron generation was found. This result can indicate that with increasing dendron generation the ability of forming intermolecular hydrogen bonds decrease due to the three-dimensional structure of higher generation dendron.
