Synthesis of alternating polyesters using a dual catalytic system of alkali metal alkoxides and crown ether
In this study, a dual catalytic system that merges crown ether with alkali metal alkoxides (AMA) is utilized in the ring-opening alternating polymerization (ROAP) of phthalic anhydride (PA) and propylene oxide (PO). This method streamlines the production of polyesters characterized by a fully alternating sequence, a modifiable molar mass (achieving up to 59.3 kg mol−1), and a narrow molar mass distribution (ÐM < 1.26). Analysis of various commercially available AMAs, notably sodium ethoxide (EtONa), sodium methoxide, and lithium ethoxide, in tandem with crown ethers (15-crown-5 and 18-crown-6), underscores the superior catalytic efficacy of the EtONa and 18-crown-6 pairing. This heightened efficiency is attributed to the coordination of crown ether with alkali metal ions, thereby boosting the nucleophilicity of terminal alkoxide anions. The methodology has been successfully deployed in the ROAP of PA, norbornene anhydride, and multiple epoxides, while also simplifying the creation of aliphatic–aromatic block polyesters from a mixture of PA, PO, and lactide. This strategy presents a straightforward approach to polyester production, thus making significant contributions to the evolution of polyester synthesis technology.
期刊介绍:
European Polymer Journal is dedicated to publishing work on fundamental and applied polymer chemistry and macromolecular materials. The journal covers all aspects of polymer synthesis, including polymerization mechanisms and chemical functional transformations, with a focus on novel polymers and the relationships between molecular structure and polymer properties. In addition, we welcome submissions on bio-based or renewable polymers, stimuli-responsive systems and polymer bio-hybrids. European Polymer Journal also publishes research on the biomedical application of polymers, including drug delivery and regenerative medicine. The main scope is covered but not limited to the following core research areas:
Polymer synthesis and functionalization
• Novel synthetic routes for polymerization, functional modification, controlled/living polymerization and precision polymers.
Stimuli-responsive polymers
• Including shape memory and self-healing polymers.
Supramolecular polymers and self-assembly
• Molecular recognition and higher order polymer structures.
Renewable and sustainable polymers
• Bio-based, biodegradable and anti-microbial polymers and polymeric bio-nanocomposites.
Polymers at interfaces and surfaces
• Chemistry and engineering of surfaces with biological relevance, including patterning, antifouling polymers and polymers for membrane applications.
Biomedical applications and nanomedicine
• Polymers for regenerative medicine, drug delivery molecular release and gene therapy
The scope of European Polymer Journal no longer includes Polymer Physics.
