In this review, attention is focused on briefly summarizing the main concepts of dendrimers in catalysis and essentially reviewing new breakthroughs and trends in this area that have appeared during the last few years. Dendrimers have been proposed to bridge the gap between homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis, and dendritic catalysts have the potential to approach catalysts benefiting from high activity, high selectivity, high stability, and easy separation.
