Abstract
The incorporation of multiple p-carborane cages within an aliphatic polyester dendrimer was accomplished through the preparation of a bifunctional carborane synthon. A p-carborane derivative having an acid and a protected alcohol functionality was found to efficiently couple to peripheral hydroxyl groups of low-generation dendrimers under standard esterification conditions. Deprotection of carborane hydroxyl groups allowed for further dendronization through a divergent approach using the highly reactive anhydride of benzylidene-protected 2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl)propanoic acid. This approach was used to prepare fourth- and fifth-generation dendrimers that contain 4, 8, and 16 carborane cages within their interior. Upon peripheral deprotection to liberate a polyhydroxylated dendrimer exterior, these structures exhibited aqueous solubility as long as a minimum of eight hydroxyl groups per carborane were present. Several of the water-soluble structures were found to exhibit a lower critical solution temperature. Additionally, irradiation of these materials with thermal neutrons resulted in emission of gamma radiation that is indicative of boron neutron capture events occurring within the carborane-containing dendrimers.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
