Catalysts for CO2/epoxide ring-opening copolymerization
This article summarizes and reviews recent progress in the development of catalysts for the ring-opening copolymerization of carbon dioxide and epoxides. The copolymerization is an interesting method to add value to carbon dioxide, including from waste sources, and to reduce pollution associated with commodity polymer manufacture. The selection of the catalyst is of critical importance to contr...
متن کاملAlternating copolymerization of epoxides and cyclic anhydrides: an improved route to aliphatic polyesters.
Aliphatic polyesters constitute an important class of polymers because of their biodegradability1,2 and biocompatability,2,3 which enable their use in drug delivery systems,2 artificial tissues,3 and commodity materials.4 Polyesters such as poly(butylene succinate) are commonly produced through condensation polymerization; however, this method is energy intensive, requiring high temperature and...
متن کاملReactivity ratios, and mechanistic insight for anionic ring-opening copolymerization of epoxides.
Reactivity ratios were evaluated for anionic ring-opening copolymerizations of ethylene oxide (EO) with either allyl glycidyl ether (AGE) or ethylene glycol vinyl glycidyl ether (EGVGE) using a benzyl alkoxide initiator. The chemical shift for the benzylic protons of the initiator, as measured by (1)H NMR spectroscopy, were observed to be sensitive to the sequence of the first two monomers adde...
متن کاملRing-opening copolymerization (ROCOP): synthesis and properties of polyesters and polycarbonates.
Controlled routes to prepare polyesters and polycarbonates are of interest due to the widespread application of these materials and the opportunities provided to prepare new copolymers. Furthermore, ring-opening copolymerization may enable new poly(ester-carbonate) materials to be prepared which are inaccessible using alternative polymerizations. This review highlights recent advances in the ri...
متن کاملNiobium Pentachloride Catalysed Ring Opening of Epoxides
Epoxide ring opening is a frequently required transformation in Organic Synthesis. In this paper we describe the application of NbCl5 for this purpose using three different substrates. Chlorohydrins, 1,2-diols, products containing solvent residues as well as rearrangement products are obtained, depending on both the substrate structure and reaction conditions. Rationalizations to account for so...
