This review highlights recent developments in the field of biodegradable polymeric materials
intended to replace non-degradable conventional plastics, focusing on studies from the last …

Aluminum alkyl complexes have very useful applications as catalysts or reagents in small
molecule transformations and as cocatalysts in olefin polymerization. This short review …

Highly active yttrium phosphasalen initiators for the stereocontrolled ring-opening
polymerization of rac-lactide are reported. The initiators are coordinated by a new class of …

Iso‐selective initiators for the ring‐opening polymerization (ROP) of rac‐lactide are rare
outside of Group 13. We describe the first examples of highly iso‐selective lutetium initiators …

A family of chiral zinc amido-oxazolinate complexes are shown to be highly active and
isoselective initiators for the ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of rac-lactide, yielding …

Cobalt (II) halides in combination with phenoxyimine (FI) ligands generated efficient
precatalysts in situ for the C (sp2)–C (sp3) Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling between alkyl …

The preparation and characterization of several zinc and magnesium complexes bearing
chiral aminophenolate ligands,[(S)-or (R)-L] ZnN (SiMe3) 2 (1, 2),[(S)-or (R)-L] ZnO t Bu (3 …

Zirconium complexes of bipyrrolidine derived salan ligands for the isoselective polymerisation
of rac -lactide - Chemical Communications (RSC Publishing) DOI:10.1039/C4CC07871C Royal …

A series of neutral lanthanide alkoxides supported by an amine-bridged bis (phenolate)
ligand were synthesized, and their catalytic behaviors for the polymerization of rac-lactide …

The highly isoselective ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of racemic lactide is regarded as
a valuable strategy for the synthesis of stereocomplex polylactide. In the present …
