Carbohydrate functionalized iron(III) complexes as biomimetic siderophores.
Catechol functionalized iron(III) glycodendrimers have been prepared using a self-assembly process for targeting a specific strain of E. coli bacteria and have been shown to exhibit carbohydrate-lectin mediated iron delivery in growth promotion assay.
