New facets of an old ligand: titanium and zirconium complexes of phenylenediamine bis(phenolate) in lactide polymerisation catalysis.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Phenylenediamine bis(phenolate) binds in the reduced dianionic form to titanium and zirconium alkoxides giving either mononuclear or bridging dinuclear complexes depending on the metal precursors; the fluxional mononuclear titanium complex is found to exhibit extremely high activity in polymerisation of rac-lactide in the melt.

Novel Ti(IV) and Zr(IV) complexes and their application in the ring-opening polymerisation of cyclic esters.
A series of group 4 amine tris(phenolate) complexes have been prepared and characterised by single crystal X-ray diffraction and multinuclear NMR spectroscopy. It was found that the ligands afforded monomeric titanium complexes and dimeric zirconium structures in the solid-state. The complexes have been tested for the ring-opening polymerisation of rac-lactide under both solution and melt condi...
متن کاملDiamido Complexes of Titanium and Zirconium as Catalyst Precursors for Ethylene Polymerization
A series of 8 new complexes of titanium and zirconium with diamido ligands bearing an ethylene and propylene bridge between the two amido groups were synthesized and tested for ethylene polymerization. Titanium complexes bearing an ethylene bridge between the two amido groups showed higher activities than the derivatives with a propylene bridge. In the case of the zirconium complexes, the p...

Reaction of the OOO-coordinating tridentate bis(phenolate) protio-ligand 2,2'-{oxybis(methylene)}bis{4,6-di(1-methyl-1-phenylethyl)phenol} (L(O3)-H2), with 1 equiv. of KN(SiMe3)2 in toluene or THF yielded [K(L(O3)-H)] (1) or [K(L(O3)-H)(THF)] (2), respectively. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies of 1 and 2 revealed mononuclear structures with the phenyl rings of the bulky ligand displayin...
متن کاملFacilely synthesized benzotriazole phenolate zirconium complexes as versatile catalysts for copolymerization of carbon dioxide with cyclohexene oxide and lactide polymerization.
A family of zirconium complexes containing bis-, tri- or tetra-BTP ligands (BTP = benzotriazole phenolate) were synthesized and structurally characterized. Treatment of Zr(O(i)Pr)4((i)PrOH) with 2.0 molar equivalents of 2-(2H-benzotriazol-2-yl)-4-(2,4,4-trimethylpentan-2-yl)phenol ((C8)BTP-H) or 2-(2H-benzotriazol-2-yl)-4,6-di-tert-butylphenol ((t-Bu)BTP-H) afforded zirconium alkoxide ([((C8)BT...

Chiral Schiff bases (1H to 4H) and a series of their Group 4 metal alkoxide complexes [(R-1)2Ti(O(i)Pr)2, (R-2)2Ti(O(i)Pr)2, (R-1)(2)Zr(O(i)Pr)2, (R-2)2Zr(O(i)Pr)2, (R-3)2Zr(O(i)Pr)2, (R-4)2Zr(O(i)Pr)2, (S-1)2Zr(O(i)Pr)2 and (rac-1)2Zr(O(i)Pr)2] have been prepared and characterised by 1H, and 13C NMR spectroscopy. In solution, both Lambda and Delta isomers were observed, suggesting a low degree...
