44. A more practical reason was the unfavorable synthesis protocol of the dibromo compound by Pd-catalyzed allylation of (3,5-dibromophenyl)trimethylstannane. In order to avoid the handling of tin compounds the diiodo analog was prepared by a different procedure.

62. Preliminary investigations on the corresponding G3 dendron (not shown) encountered the additional problem that the molar mass of this molecule could not be confirmed, since the applied methods (EI, FAB, MALDI-TOF) only showed much smaller fragments. The mass spectral analyses of TBDMS-protected dendrons 3 and 4 point to the sensitivity of the silyl group with the loss of methyl and tert-butyl groups.
