Abstract

A variety of organocatalysts has been surveyed in the ring opening polymerization of trimethylene carbonate. Excellent control was found for several of these catalysts yielding well-defined polycarbonates with molecular weights up to 50,000 g mol(-1), polydispersities below 1.08, and high end-group fidelity. Melt or bulk polymerization was accomplished without loss of control of molecular weight or polydispersity, and random ester-carbonate bulk polymerizations were also demonstrated. Furthermore, by combining disparate polymerization techniques using bifunctional initiators, the mild polymerization conditions allow for the preparation of new block copolymers. Hydrogen-bond activation of monomer and initiator/propagating species is proposed as the underlying mechanism, which can be tuned to mitigate adverse side reactions.

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.
