24. The generation of a dendritic structure is assigned by proceeding from the core and counting either (a) the number of subunit branching events or (b) the number of layers of monomer subunits. We use the former convention in this paper. If the latter convention were used, compounds 1b-3b would be first-generation dendrimers and compound 4b would be a second-generation dendrimer.
