Tetraphenylmethane-ethynylene-based shape-persistent dendrimers are a new class of nanoobjects with an intriguing 3D architecture. We report an efficient divergent strategy for their synthesis based on the Sonogashira Pd-catalyzed coupling of terminal alkynes with aryl iodides. As repeat unit, we prepared a tetraphenylmethane derivative bearing a terminal alkyne and three triazene moieties. Coupling of this building block to tetrakis(p-iodophenyl)methane afforded, after triazene activation, a dodecaiodo-terminated first generation dendrimer, which was transformed by another Sonogashira coupling into a methoxy-terminated second generation dendrimer with persistent globular shape and well-defined cavities. This work also unveils new aspects of triazene chemistry, i.e., the unprecedented efficient generation of an azo compound by mixing of a triazene with phenol.

The deposition of tetralactam macrocycles and the corresponding benzyl ether rotaxanes on gold substrates is investigated for the first time exploiting metallo-supramolecular chemistry. Two pyridine-terminated self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) are develope
