Re: CCL:starburst dendrimers coordinates



 Hi Gustavo,
 Your in luck!

 I don't know about a repository of coordinates, but there was a poster given
 just last week at the Midland Section ACS meeting on exactly that: software
 they have developed and are using to build dendrimers for modeling.  I
 believe they are up to 7th generation dendrimers and higher, depending on
 whether you use a divergent synthesis or a convergent synthesis.
