Abstract

A series of bis(amidinate) tin(ii) complexes is synthesized and shown to rapidly polymerize ɛ-caprolactone (ɛ-CL) in the presence and absence of benzyl alcohol giving high-molecular-weight poly(ɛ-CL) (M_n up to 160,600 Da). Ligands having electron donating groups were found to accelerate the polymerization by making the complex more nucleophilic.
