1,3,5-tristyrylbenzene dendrimers: a novel model system to explore oxygen quenching in a highly organized environment.
Control of the efficiency of photoisomerization by oxygen was demonstrated for 1,3,5-tristyrylbenzene dendrimers 1-3; the large dendrons do not significantly affect the photochemistry itself due to volume-conserving isomerization mechanisms but may affect the mobility of the molecules.
