Ring-Opening Polymerization of Lactides Initiated by Zinc Alkoxides Derived from NNO-Tridentate Ligands
Abstract
A new series of dinuclear zinc complexes of the types [LZnEt] 2 and [LZn(μ-OBn)] 2 (where L = NNO-tridentate Schiff base ligand) have been prepared. The activities of zinc alkoxides, [LZn(μ-OBn)] 2, toward the ring-opening polymerization of l -lactide have been investigated. Experimental results indicate that the reactivity of [LZn(μ-OBn)] 2 was dramatically affected by both the electronic and steric effect of the substituents on the Schiff base. The polymerization kinetics using [L 1 Zn(μ-OBn)] 2 ( 2a ) as an initiator were also studied, and the experimental results reveal that the rate of reaction is first-order, which depends on both [LA] and [L 1 Zn(μ-OBn)] 2 . Furthermore, the heterotactic PLA with Pr up to 91% can be achieved by initiating of [L 5 Zn(μ-OBn)] 2 in CH 2 Cl 2 at −55 °C.

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.
