چکیده

Two dinuclear aluminum alkyl complexes supported by a piperazidine-bridged bis(phenolato) group were prepared, and both complexes exhibited extremely high activity for the ring-opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone. In the presence of benzyl alcohol (BnOH), the polymerization accelerated dramatically.

Aluminum Alkyl Complexes Bearing Salicylaldiminato Ligands: Versatile Initiators in the Ring-Opening Polymerization of Cyclic Esters

Linear aliphatic polyesters are degradable thermoplastic polymers, which can be obtained by ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of cyclic esters through a coordination-insertion mechanism. Aluminum based organometallic complexes have a leading position as efficient catalysts for this polymerization process. Aluminumalkyl complexes bearing salicylaldiminato ligands, although less explored, have be...

Highly active zinc alkyl cations for the controlled and immortal ring-opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone.

Zinc alkyl cations supported by N,N-BIAN-type bidentate ligands were found to be highly active in the immortal ROP of ε-caprolactone to yield narrowly disperse and chain length-controlled poly(ε-caprolactone), whether in solution or bulk polymerization conditions.

A closer look at ε-caprolactone polymerization catalyzed by alkyl aluminum complexes: the effect of induction period on overall catalytic activity.

Previous studies on the ring-opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone using structurally related aluminum complexes as pre-catalysts showed inconsistent trends in the total conversion time. We propose that an induction period for Al complexes for conversion to real catalytic species, Al alkoxide, should be considered because the total conversion time consists of both an induction period and pol...

Structural and kinetic studies of the polymerization reactions of ε-caprolactone catalyzed by (pyrazol-1-ylmethyl)pyridine Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes.

The structural and kinetic studies of polymerization reactions of ε-caprolactone (ε-CL) using (pyrazolylmethyl)pyridine Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes as initiators is described. Reactions of 2-(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-ylmethyl)pyridine (L1) and 2-(3,5-diphenylpyrazol-1-ylmethyl)pyridine (L2) with Zn(Ac)2·2H2O or Cu(Ac)2·2H2O produced the corresponding complexes [Zn(Ac)2(L1)] (1), [Cu(Ac)2(L1)] (2),...

Well-controlled ring-opening polymerization of cyclic esters initiated by dialkylaluminum β-diketiminates.

A series of aluminum alkyl complexes nacnacRAlMe2 (2a-2h) bearing aliphatic N-substituted β-diketiminate ligands (nacnacRH = N,N'-dialkyl-2-amino-4-iminopent-2-enes), were prepared from the reaction of trialkyl aluminum and the corresponding β-diketimines. All these aluminum complexes were characterized by NMR, elemental analysis and HRMS spectroscopy. The molecular structures of complexes 2a, ...
