Popis: | The biphenol based discrete ion-pair rare earth complexes, [Ln(EDBP)2(DME)Na(DME)3] [Ln = Er(1), Yb(2), Sm(3)], were prepared and used as catalysts for the ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of 2,2-dimethyltrimethylene carbonate (DTC). Three complexes show moderate activities for the polymerization, and the catalytic activities increase in the following sequence: (Yb < Er < Sm). The effect of different ratios of [DTC]/[Ln], polymerization temperature and time on the polymerization was investigated. Moreover, PDTC without ether unit developed from possible CO2 elimination was prepared. |
