چکیده

Dicationic, zwitterionic and "conventional" yttrium compounds act as catalysts for the primary or secondary amine-initiated immortal ROP of rac-lactide; amine-terminated, highly heterotactic poly(rac-lactides) with narrow polydispersities and well-controlled molecular weights are prepared in this manner.

Synthesis and structures of calcium and strontium 2,4-di-tert-butylphenolates and their reactivity towards the amine co-initiated ring-opening polymerisation of rac-lactide.

Calcium and strontium metals react with Hg(C6F5)2 and 2,4-di-tert-butylphenol (H-DBP) in tetrahydrofuran (THF) and 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME) to give [Ca(DBP)2(THF)4] (1), [Ca2(DBP)4(DME)4(μ-DME)] (2), [Sr3(μ-DBP)6(THF)6] (3), and [Sr2(DBP)(μ-DBP)3(DME)3] (4). Compound 1 is a six coordinate trans-octahedral monomer, whereas in binuclear 2 two seven-coordinate Ca centres are bridged by a DME liga...

Highly active and stereoselective zirconium and hafnium alkoxide initiators for solvent-free ring-opening polymerization of rac-lactide.

Under solvent-free conditions (at 130 degrees C), zirconium and hafnium amine tris(phenolate) alkoxides are extremely active, well-controlled, single-site initiators for the ring-opening polymerization of rac-lactide, yielding highly heterotactic polylactide.

Isoselective ring-opening polymerization of rac-lactide initiated by achiral heteroscorpionate zwitterionic zinc complexes.

A highly isotactic stereoblock PLA has been obtained using the achiral heteroscorpionate zwitterionic zinc complexes as catalysts, for the first time, via a chain-end control mechanism.

Cationic and charge-neutral calcium tetrahydroborate complexes and their use in the controlled ring-opening polymerisation of rac-lactide.

The first cationic main group tetrahydroborate complexes are reported. [Ca(BH(4))(THF)(5)][BPh(4)] and the charge neutral (Tp((t)Bu,Me))Ca(BH(4))(THF) are initiators for the living ring opening polymerization of rac-lactide, the latter producing PLA with high levels of heterotactic enrichment. These represent a new class of ROP initiators for main group metals.

Synthesis and rac-lactide ring-opening polymerisation studies of new alkaline earth tetrahydroborate complexes.

Reaction of K[HC(C(Me)NAr')(2)] (Ar' = 2,6-C(6)H(3)(i)Pr(2)) with Mg(BH(4))(2) afforded the pseudo four-coordinate tetrahydroborate complex Mg{HC(C(Me)NAr')(2)}(BH(4))(THF) (1). The corresponding reaction of Ca(BH(4))(2)(THF)(2) or Sr(BH(4))(2)(THF)(2) gave the pseudo five-coordinate analogues M{HC(C(Me)NAr')(2)}(BH(4))(THF)(2) (M = Ca (2) or Sr (3)). All three compounds 1-3 have been structura...
