We study the complexation of nontoxic, native poly(propyl ether imine) dendrimers with single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). The interaction was monitored by measuring the quenching of inherent fluorescence of the dendrimer. The dendrimer-nanotube binding also resulted in the increased electrical resistance

Unusually low proton-transporting ability of a water molecule has been observed in the excited-state proton transfer (ESPT) of a 7-azaindole (7AI) molecule complexed cyclically with a water molecule in diethyl ether and dipropyl ether. In contrast with ultrafast (<1 ps)

Amphiphilic comb like macromonomer containing hydrophilic poly(ethylene glycol) groups covalently linked to poly(hydromethyl siloxane) (PHMS) were prepared by hydrosilylation reaction. The epoxy reacting sites were introduced to this amphiphilic system by the reaction with allyl epoxy propyl ether (AEPE). Bovine
