Abstract:A "one-step" strategy has been demonstrated for the tunable synthesis of multifunctional aliphatic polycarbonates (APCs) with ethylene oxide (EO), ethylene carbonate (EC), and cyclohexene oxide (CHO) side groups by the copolymerization of 4vinyl-1-cyclohexene diepoxide with carbon dioxide under an aminotriphenolate iron/PPNBz (PPN = bis(triphenylphosphine)iminium, Bz = benzoate) binary catalyst. By adjusting the PPNBz-toiron complex ratio and incorporating auxiliary solvents, the content of functional side gro… Show more
