Ring-Opening Polymerization of <i>L</i>-Lactide Catalyzed by Potassium-Based Complexes: Mechanistic Studies

Ring-Opening Polymerization of <i>L</i>-Lactide Catalyzed by Potassium-Based Complexes: Mechanistic Studies

Two non-toxic potassium compounds, <b>1</b> and <b>2</b>, with a commercial oximate ligand have been prepared and fully spectroscopically characterized. Their activity as catalysts for the ring-opening polymerization (ROP) process of LLA has been studied, showing that they ar...
