A series of polyamide dendrimers (GO-G2) having carboxy1 groups on the periphery were prepared by the divergent method. The reaction of G 18NH2 dendrimer with glutaric acid anhydride gave polyamide dendrimer (Gi-8COOH). The structure of polyamide dendrimers were confirmed by IR, 1H, 13C NMR, MALDI-TOF mass, and elemental analysis. Poly(4-vinylpyridine) (P4VP) was prepared by atom transfer radical polymerization of 4-vinylpyridine. A hydrogen bonded GI-8COOH/P4VP 1/8 (molar ratio) complex was prepared by mixing GIA8COOH with P4VP in methanol, followed by removing the solvent. IR spectrum of Gl-8COOH/P4VP 1/8 complex showed the characteristic absorptions at 2550 and 1950 cm-1 due to the hydrogen bonding. A glass transition temperature (Tg) of GI-8COOH/P4VP 1/8 complex was observed at 177°C by DSC measurement, whereas the Tg values of G 1-8COOH and P4VP were at 147 and 138°C, respectively.

Key Words: Polyamide dendrimer • poly(4-vinylpyridine) • multiple hydrogen bonding
