Claim:
1. A method for preparing a compound, comprising: (a) converting a polymer base unit R wherein y is an integer between 1 and 20 inclusive, a and b are C—C bonds in cis-configuration with respect to each other and in either cis- or trans-configuration with respect to bond c; and (b) reacting the polymer obtained in (a) with a polyamine represented by wherein R 12 is hydrogen or a C 1 -C 4 branched or straight chained alkyl optionally substituted with one or more amine groups, R 13 is a C 1 -C 4 branched or straight chained alkylene group, and x is an integer between 1 and 10, and further wherein the —N(R 12 )—R 13 — unit is optionally interrupted in one or more places by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic cycloalkyl group, and wherein when the x-th —N(R 12 )—R 13 — unit along with the terminal nitrogen atom forms a heterocyclic cycloalkyl group, the terminal —NH 2 is replaced by a —NH— group for valency.
