Novel phosphasalen ligands for the ring-opening polymerisation of lactones
<p>Bio-derived polymers offer a sustainable alternative to petroleum-derived polymers. One such polymer, polylactide (PLA) is synthesised from the ring-opening polymerisation (ROP) of <em>rac</em>-lactide (<em>rac</em>-LA). The monomer contains two stereocentres which g...
