Recent advances in the controlled preparation of poly(α-hydroxy acids): Metal-free catalysts and new monomers

Open access

Abstract

Polylactides (PLAs) are at the forefront of biodegradable polymer research. These poly(α-hydroxy acids) can be prepared by polycondensation of lactic acid or ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of lactide, both routes typically involving metallic promoters. The first part of this review focuses on the recent achievements reported with metal-free systems via organocatalytic (nucleophilic, cationic and bifunctional) as well as enzymatic approaches. The second part of the review concerns the heterocyclic monomers that give access to poly(α-hydroxy acids) such as PLAs. Two complementary approaches will be discussed: substituted 1,4-dioxane-2,5-diones and synthetic equivalents thereof.

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.
