An Orthogonal Protection Strategy for Synthesizing Scaffold-Modifiable Dendrons and Their Application in Drug Delivery

Changren Liu et al.

Summary: This study presents a new strategy for synthesizing scaffold-modifiable dendrons via orthogonal amino protection and solid-phase synthesis method. The dendrons exhibit super selectivity, high reactivity, and wide applicability to various reaction types, making them an ideal choice for site-specific bifunctionalization. The dendron-based prodrug, conjugated with doxorubicin (DOX) and phenylboronic acid (PBA) groups, shows extraordinary antitumor efficacy and can eradicate tumors established in mice. This work provides a practical strategy for synthesizing scaffold-modifiable dendrons and offers a promising nanoplatform for function integration in a precisely controlled manner.
