[structure: see text]. A new series of amphiphilic G1-G3 dendrons containing purely aliphatic hydrocarbon dendritic surface sectors and one or two carboxylic acid group(s) at the focal point was synthesized in good yields. The key branching steps involve diallylation reactions of diethyl malonate or Meldrum's acid. These dendrons are highly soluble in hexane despite having highly polar carboxylic acid groups at the focal point.
