Organocatalytic Ring-Opening Polymerization of Cyclic Esters Mediated by Highly Active Bifunctional Iminophosphorane Catalysts
Highly active bifunctional iminophosphorane catalysts have been applied to the organocatalytic ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of l-lactide (LA), δ-valerolactone (VL), and ε-caprolactone (CL). LA polymerization using catalyst 2 at 1 mol % loading rapidly gave poly(LA) in full conversion and with e...
