Synthesis and Properties of Polyalkylenimines

Supramolecular Chemistry Group, Department of Organic and Macromolecular Chemistry, Ghent University, Krijgslaan 28TS4, B-9000 Ghent, Belgium [Pg.30]


Polyalkylenimines (PAIs) are a class of cationic polymers that have a generalised structure with secondary or tertiary amines in the main separated by all lene spacers, as shown in Scheme 2.1. Due to the presence of the nucleophilic amine groups in the polymer backbone, their synthesis is more complicated compared to simpler vinyl based polymers. This chapter will focus on the synthesis of the PAIs, their physical properties and a short review of applications, focusing on gene delivery. This chapter will only cover PAI homopolymers and excludes the convoluted area of block copolymers, as this is worth a full review by itself. [Pg.30]
