Mechanism of Cyclic Ester Polymerization Initiated with Tin(II) Octoate. 2. Macromolecules Fitted with Tin(II) Alkoxide Species Observed Directly in MALDI−TOF Spectra
Abstract
Polymerization of ε-caprolactone (CL) initiated with tin(II) octoate (tin(II) 2-ethylhexanoate, (Sn(Oct) 2 )) in the presence of butyl alcohol (BuOH) or water and conducted in tetrahydrofuran (THF) as a solvent at 80 °C was studied using MALDI−TOF mass spectrometry. Formation of the following populations of macromolecules was revealed: Bu[O(O)C(CH 2 ) 5 ] n OSnOct, Bu[O(O)C(CH 2 ) 5 ] n Oct, Bu[O(O)C(CH 2 ) 5 ] n OH, H[O(O)C(CH 2 ) 5 ] n Oct, H[O(O)C(CH 2 ) 5 ] n OH, macrocyclics [O(O)C(CH 2 ) 5 ] n, and macrocyclics with incorporated tin(II) alkoxide moieties [O(O)C(CH 2 ) 5 ] n OSn. Thus, the most rewarding has been a direct observation of species with a tin atom covalently bonded with the polyester chain, at least for two populations of macromolecules (i.e., Bu[O(O)C(CH 2 ) 5 ] n OSnOct and [O(O)C(CH 2 ) 5 ] n OSn cyclics). Identification of the tin-containing macromolecules was based not only on the agreement between the observed m / z and the calculated molar mass values but also on the particular isotopic distribution provided by the tin atom. This result is in favor of the mechanism postulating propagation on the tin(II) alkoxide as the active center.

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.
