Synthesis 

== Synthesis of pHP  ==

In a three-neck 50 mL round-bottom reaction flask, fitted with a stirrer, dropping funnel and a thermometer, '''1,3-diamino-2-propanol''' ('''1.5 g''') was dissolved in methanol (3 mL). Resulting solution was preheated 50° C. and upon vigorous stirring '''1,3-dibromo-2-propanol''' ('''3.63 g''', '''1.7 mL''') was added. Reaction mixture was stirred for '''48 hours at 50° C'''. Upon completion the viscous polycondensation reaction mixture was diluted with distilled water (10 mL) and dialyzed against water for 5 days with SERVA Membra-Cel visking dialysis tubing MWCO '''4 kDa'''. Dialysis solution was concentrated under reduced pressure until ca 25% of starting volume and then freeze-dried to furnish pHP poly(2-hydroxypropylene imine) ('''0.78 g''', 32%). 

== <br>Synthesis of pHPE  ==

To the stirred solution of '''1,3-diamino-2-propanol''' ('''3.00 g''') in methanol ('''4 mL)''' in a three-neck 50 mL round-bottom reaction flask, equipped with a stirrer, dropping funnel and a thermometer, '''1,2-dibromoethane''' ('''6.25 g, 2.87 mL''') was added drop-wise. The resulting solution was stirred for 48 hours at 50° C. Resulting viscous polycondensation reaction mixture was diluted with distilled water (10 mL) and dialyzed against water for 5 days with SERVA Membra-Cel dialysis tubing MWCO 4 kDa. Dialysis solution was concentrated under reduced pressure and resulting polymer was further dried using oil pump to give pHPE (poly(2-hydroxypropylene imine ethyleneimine) ('''0.81 g''', 21%). 

== <br>Synthesis of pHPP  ==

To the stirred preheated (50° C.) solution of '''1,3-diamino-2-propanol (3.00 g) '''in methanol ('''4 mL''') in a three-neck 50 mL round-bottom flask, equipped with a stirrer, dropping funnel and a thermometer '''1,3-dibromopropane (6.72 g, 3.38 mL)''' was added drop-wise. Resulting solution was stirred for '''24 hours at 50° C'''. Upon completion the viscous polycondensation reaction mixture was diluted with distilled water (10 mL) and dialyzed against water for 5 days with SERVA Membra-Cel visking dialysis tubing MWCO 4 kDa. Dialysis solution was concentrated under reduced pressure until ca 25% of starting volume and then freeze-dried to yield pHPP (poly(2-hydroxypropylene imine propylene imine) ('''1.2 g, '''28%). <br>
