Thin layer cyclic voltammetry: an efficient tool to determine the redox characteristics of large dendrimers.
Dendrimers with an electroactive bis(phenanthroline) copper(I) core have been prepared and thin layer cyclic voltammetry (TLCV) found to be an efficient tool to determine their redox characteristics in spite of the slow electron transfer kinetics observed for the largest compounds.
