New facets of an old ligand: titanium and zirconium complexes of phenylenediamine bis(phenolate) in lactide polymerisation catalysis

Ayellet L. Zelikoff; Jacob Kopilov; Israel Goldberg; Geoffrey W. Coates; Moshe Kol

Phenylenediamine bis(phenolate) binds in the reduced dianionic form to titanium and zirconium alkoxides giving either mononuclear or bridging dinuclear complexes depending on the metal precursors; the fluxional mononuclear titanium complex is found to exhibit extremely high activity in polymerisation of rac-lactide in the melt.

Dithiodiolate Ligands: Group 4 Complexes and Application in Lactide Polymerization

Ekaterina Sergeeva; Jacob Kopilov; Israel Goldberg; Moshe Kol

Dithiodiolate ligands were synthesized by reacting 1,2-ethanedithiol or 1,2-benzenedithiol with 2,2-bis(trifluoromethyl)oxirane, led selectively to mononuclear octahedral group 4 complexes of the type [{OSSO}M(OR)(2)], which features C(2) symmetry and fluxional behavior, and were highly active in the ring-opening polymerization of rac- and L-lactide.
