A series of poly(aryl ether) dendrimers with a norbornadiene (NBD) group attaching to the core (Gn-NBD), generations 1–4, were synthesized and characterized, and their photophysical and photochemical properties were examined. The fluorescence of the dendrimer backbone is quenched by the norbornadiene group as a result of the electron transfer and energy transfer from the dendrimer backbone to the norbornadiene group in Gn-NBD. Selective excitation of the dendrimer backbone results in an isomerization of the norbornadiene group to the quadricyclane (QC) group. The intramolecular electron transfer and energy transfer efficiencies are ca. 0.93, 0.73, 0.54, 0.30 in dichloromethane, and ca. 0.90, 0.70, 0.55, 0.34 in tetrahydrofuran for generations 1–4, respectively, with the rate constant ca. 1010 s−1. The light-harvesting ability of these dendritic molecules is demonstrated by the enhanced valence isomerization rate of NBD to QC with increasing generation.
