Copolymerization of carbon dioxide and epoxide with organometallic compounds

Inoue, Shohei, Koinuma, Hideomi, Tsuruta, Teiji·1969·Die Makromolekulare Chemie

Abstract

Attempts to copolymerize carbon dioxide with epoxide led us to the first success in using carbon dioxide as a direct starting material for synthesizing high polymers. Some organometallic catalyst systems were found to catalyze the alternate copolymerization of carbon dioxide and epoxide, resulting in the formation of polycarbonates, the structures of which were confirmed with the aid of IR, NMR and elemental analysis. Diethylzinc‐water system produced a methanol insoluble aliphatic polycarbonate of much higher molecular weight than that produced by polycondensation. Thermal properties of the methanol insoluble polycarbonate were studied by differential thermal analysis and thermogravimetric analysis.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
