Table 1. Copolymerization of AOMEC and εCL at Different Temperatures Initiated by Benzyl Alcohol/TBD or P2-t-Bu.
| temperature [°C] | catalyst | [M]a:[I]:[Cat.] | solvent | concn [M] |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| –40 | TBD | [200]:[1]:[2.5] | DCM | 2 |
| 30 | TBD | [200]:[1]:[2.5] | DCM | 2 |
| 100 | TBD | [200]:[1]:[2.5] | none | bulk |
| 170 | TBD | [200]:[1]:[2.5] | none | bulk |
| 30 | P2-t-Bu | [400]:[1]:[0.5] | DCM | 2 |
[M], M = nAOMEC + nεCL, and nAOMEC/nεCL = 1.
