Abstract

N, N ′-Di( S -phenylethyl)-2-amino-4-iminopent-2-ene, S,S - nacnac CH(Me)Ph H, 1a, and N, N ′-dibenzyl-2-amino-4-iminopent-2-ene, nacnac Bn H, 1b, react with ZnEt 2 to form the corresponding nacnac ZnEt complexes 2a and 2b . Neither complex is reactive with 2-propanol or methyl lactate to produce the corresponding alkoxide complexes. In reactions with 2b, ligand redistribution occurs and nacnac Bn 2 Zn was obtained. Reaction of 1a and 1b with Zn(N(SiMe 3 ) 2 ) 2 yielded nacnac ZnN(SiMe 3 ) 2, 6a and 6b . From further reactions with 2-propanol nacnac ZnO i Pr, 7a and 7b, were obtained. Both complexes were catalytically active for polymerization of rac -lactide with apparent first-order rate constants of k app = 0.013−0.019 min −1 and 0.019−0.038 min −1 for 7a and 7b, respectively. Obtained polymers were highly heterotactic, with P r = 0.84−0.87 ( 7a ) and 0.65−0.71 ( 7b ). Analysis of remaining monomer after 75% conversion showed negligible ee and indicates that chiral 7a does not show enantioselectivity in rac -lactide polymerization. Complex 7a, but not 7b, catalyzes unselective transesterification of the polymer during and after polymerization. PLA microstructures in polymerizations with 7b were independent of temperature (23 or 0 °C) or monomer/catalyst ratio (100:1 to 400:1). However, slightly higher P r values were obtained in the presence of 10−100 equiv of MeCN or pyridine. Complexes nacnac Bn 2 Zn, 2b, 6b, and 7a were characterized by an X-ray diffraction study.

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.
