PG5



This is not only the largest sythetic stable molecule I could find it also has a tree-like structure with 4 or 5 iterations! It is mainly used to store drugs.

I also found an article about some other molecules. (it is not clear to me of they have been created in the lab yet.) Most involving fullerene (C60) or ferrocene. With the largest of them with about 6 iterations. Lately I've been bussy preparing for my exams and some other things. Because I will most likely be studying chemistry I've been looking around for fractals in chemistry just for fun and I actually found some very interesting molecules.PG5This is not only the largest sythetic stable molecule I could find it also has a tree-like structure with 4 or 5 iterations!

Thanks, no problem.



Yes I am, so you come to the Netherlands! I hope you will like it here. It is quite soft for the time of year so you don't have to wear your thick wintercoat yet Yes I am, so you come to the Netherlands! I hope you will like it here.

Haha, ja natuurlijk. Ik weet dat het hier mooi weer kan zijn. (dit is niet altijd het geval) Het is hier veel te warm voor de tijd van het jaar.



[translation: Yes, I know the weather can be great here. (sometimes) It is far too warm for this time of the year.]



I hope you're not too confused. I am Dutch. I wasn't sure about Deventer because of my bad geography or just because of my knowledge about Deventer.





Edit: I'm sorry for being off-topic. I am still searching for some more examples. Haha, ja natuurlijk. Ik weet dat het hier mooi weer kan zijn.

It only has three iterations but it has interesting properties. I did find another worth to mention:It only has three iterations but it has interesting properties.
