Aluminum hydroquinolin-8-olates (C1–C7) exhibited high activities for the ring-opening polymerization of ε-CL at high temperatures in the presence of BnOH, but quite low activities at ambient temperatures.

A dianionic phenoxyamido ligand was the first to be used to stabilize organo-rare-earth mental amido complex. Amine elimination reaction of La[N(SiMe3)2]3(THF)2 with 3,5-But2-2-HO-C6H2CH-NH-C5H4N in a 1 : 1 molar-ratio gave the anionic phenoxyamido neodymium amide LLa[N(TMS)2]•DME (1) in a high isolated yield. Furthemore, the catalytic behavior of complex 1 for the ring-opening polymerization of rac-lactide was explored.

AbstractThe reaction of 4-thiazolecarboxylic acid (Htzc) and dimethyltin(IV) dichloride with NaOH in mixed MeOH-H2O solvent led to the formation of a new Sn(IV) complex (Me2Sn)4(μ3-O)2(tzc)4 (1). Its structure has been characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy and single crystal and powder X-ray diffraction. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction revealed that complex 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic P21/c space group with Z = 2 and has a tetranuclear structure with crystallographically imposed centrosymmetry. The as-synthesized complex 1 was found to be active toward the bulk solvent-free polymerization of glycolide, producing poly(glycolic acid) with a number-average molecular weight up to 55.5 kDa.

The convergence of artificial intelligence and machine learning with material science holds significant promise to rapidly accelerate development timelines of new high-performance polymeric materials. Within this context, we report an inverse design strategy for polycarbonate and polyester discovery based on a recommendation system that proposes polymerization experiments that are likely to produce materials with targeted properties. Following recommendations of the system driven by the historical ring-opening polymerization results, we carried out experiments targeting specific ranges of monomer conversion and dispersity of the polymers obtained from cyclic lactones and carbonates. The results of the experiments were in close agreement with the recommendation targets with few false negatives or positives obtained for each class.<br>
