Basic groups from acid hydrolysis: 1,3,5-Triazaadamantanes (TAAs) are shown to degrade in acidic conditions to produce basic by-products. The rate of hydrolysis can be tuned by changing the substituents present on the aromatic rings. TAA containing dendrimers can be synthesized readily as a result of their branched architecture.
