Abstract
This review shows introduction of glycoclusters using carbosilanes as core scaffolds, preparations of glyco- clusters and their excellent properties as well as functions. Since a dendrimer has unique advantages such as single mo- lecular weight, regularity of structure and easy control of shape and size, dendrimers are utilized in various research areas. Results of syntheses and biological evaluations of the carbosilane dendrimers having carbohydrate moieties for influenza viruses are presented.
