Polymerization of Enantiopure Monomers Using Syndiospecific Catalysts: A New Approach To Sequence Control in Polymer Synthesis
The ring-opening polymerization of a mixture of enantiomerically pure but different monomers using an yttrium complex as initiator proceeds readily at room temperature to give the corresponding highly alternating polyester.
