Abstract
A catalytic lactide and glycolide copolymerization system comprising a trifluoromethane sulfonate as a catalyst and copolymerization additive and a copolymerization process.
Claims17
A catalytic system comprising
- (a) a trifluoromethanesulfonate of the formula
- in which
- R1 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, deuterium atom,
- -E14(R14)(R′14)(R″14);
- E14 is an element of group 14;
- R14, R′14 and R″14 are, independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, deuterium atom, substituted or non-substituted;
- alkyl, cycloalkyl and aryl, and in which said substituent or substituents are selected from the group consisting of halo, alkyl, cycloalkyl and aryl,
- as catalyst, and
- (b) a (co)polymerization additive of the formula
- R2-E-R3 (2)
- in which
- E is an element of group 16;
- R2 is hydrogen or deuterium atom;
- R3 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, deuterium atom, and
- -E′14 (T14)(T′14)(T″14);
- E′14 is an element of group 14;
- T14, T′14 and T″14 are, independently, hydrogen;
- deuterium atom;
- substituted or non-substituted members;
- alkyl, cycloalkyl and aryl, and in which said substituent or substituents are selected from the group consisting of:
- halo, hydroxy, alkyl, alkoxy, cycloalkyl, cycloalkoxy, aryl, aryloxy, carboxy, alkoxycarbonyl, cycloalkoxycarbonyl and aryloxycarbonyl for lactide and glycolide (co)polymerization.
