35. We note that poly(dendron)s have some similarities with the so-called "dendrigraft" polymers (aka "arborescent" and "comb-burst" polymers), in that these polymers also combine dendritic and linear topologies: Lescanec, R. L.; Muthukumar, M. Macromolecules 1991, 24, 4892;

39. Gauthier, M.; Li, W.; Tichagwa, L. Polymer 1997, 38, 6363. However, dendrigraft polymers are dendrimers where polymeric chains are used as the building blocks (rather than smaller monomeric units), while poly(dendron)s comprise a single linear polymeric chain, to which various dendrons are attached.
