Abstract: The synthesis of a series of cascade molecules (dendrimers) in which the core and branch points are phosphonium sites has been accomplished. The primary cores of these cascade molecules are either tridirectional, tetradirectional, or pentadirectional for the development of the generations of the cascade structure. Secondary branch points, also phosphonium ion sites, are all tridirectional for the development of further generations of the cascade structure. The phosphonium cascades represent a novel addition to the general class of dendrimeric molecules. Numerous possibilities exist for the use of such structures in ion exchange and other supramolecular processes.
