Highly fluorescent dendrimers containing stilbene, and 4-styrylstilbene with resorcinarene cores: synthesis and optical properties.

Dendron conjugated branches of stilbene and 4-styrylstilbene groups have been attached to resor-cinarene cores. A noticeable effect in solution for all dendrimers was observed in the fluorescence quantum yield. The optical properties do not change with concentration in solution.
