2,3,4,6-Tetra-O-methyl-d-galactonic acid (5) was readily prepared from d-galactono-1,4-lactone (1) in 47% yield. The sequence involves tritylation of HO-6 of 1, followed by O-permethylation and deprotection. Lactonization of 5 led to the per-O-methyl-d-galactono-1,6-lactone, which was copolymerized with epsilon-caprolactone by ring-opening polymerization catalyzed by scandium triflate. The inco...

The presented paper investigated the influence of brewers’ spent grain (BSG) extrusionparameters on photo-oxidative resistance poly(ε-caprolactone)-based wood polymer composites.Filler samples characterized by higher melanoidin content were more efficient in hindering polymerdegradation, inhibiting decomposition amorphous phase. As a result, deteriorationof mechanical performance was limited, w...

The effect of the core substituent structure on the micellar behavior of thermoresponsive amphiphilic poly(εcaprolactone) diblock copolymer micelles was investigated through a combination of experimental and computational methods. The polycaprolactone (PCL) amphiphilic block copolymers used in this study consisted of a hydrophilic poly{γ-2-[2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethoxy]ethoxy-ε-caprolactone} block...

The new divalent thulium compound [Tm(BH(4))(2)(DME)(2)] could be prepared by reduction of [Tm(BH(4))(3)(THF)(3)] or from TmI(2) and KBH(4). It was used as a precursor to the divalent [(Tp(tBu,Me))Tm(BH(4))(THF)] by reaction with potassium tris(2-tBu-4-Me)pyrazolylborate (KTp(tBu,Me)). Both Tm(II) compounds were found active as ε-caprolactone polymerisation catalysts.
