Abstract
The role of a dendrimer as an encapsulating shell around small molecules or the dendrimer core itself are briefly outlined. It is shown that encapsulation by a dendrimer reduces the rate of electron transfer to or from a redox‐active moiety incorporated in the core according to the degree of branching around the core. Development of this idea could lead to a molecular switch or an information storage device. The use of the properties of the core in order to obtain information about the shape, internal organization, and environment within a dendrimer is also outlined and an example given.
