Ring-opening polymerization of 3,6-dimethyl-2,5-morpholinedione with discrete amino-alkoxy-bis(phenolate) yttrium initiators: mechanistic insights.
Alkoxy-amino-bis(phenolate) yttrium amide and alkoxide complexes promote the ring-opening polymerization of (3S,6S)-dimethyl-2,5-morpholinedione at 60-100 degrees C via a coordination-insertion polymerization mechanism.
