Journal ArticleDOI
Structurally well-defined group 4 metal complexes as initiators for the ring-opening polymerization of lactide monomers
Andreas Sauer,Andreas Kapelski,Christophe Fliedel,Christophe Fliedel,Samuel Dagorne,Moshe Kol,Jun Okuda +6 more
TL;DR: This perspective summarizes various classes of structurally well-defined group 4 metal initiators developed for lactide ROP and provides observed trends regarding their catalytic performance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Salt-free reducing reagent of bis(trimethylsilyl)cyclohexadiene mediates multielectron reduction of chloride complexes of W(VI) and W(IV).
Hayato Tsurugi,Hiromasa Tanahashi,Haruka Nishiyama,Waldemar Fegler,Teruhiko Saito,Andreas Sauer,Jun Okuda,Kazushi Mashima +7 more
TL;DR: A salt-free reduction of WCl6 using 1-methyl-3,6-bis(trimethylsilyl)-1,4-cyclohexadiene in toluene to give a low-valent trinulcear tungsten complex involving W(II) and W(III) centers is developed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Switching the Lactide Polymerization Activity of a Cerium Complex by Redox Reactions
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors showed that a metal-centered redox process with a Cu/Cu system can mediate the atom-transfer radical polymerization of methyl acrylate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis, characterization, and lactide polymerization activity of group 4 metal complexes containing two bis(phenolate) ligands.
TL;DR: NMR spectra indicate D(2) symmetry, in agreement with the solid state structure determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction study of the complexes Zr-(1)(2), Hf-(1-2), Zr-3-2, Zr(3-3), ZR-(4-4)-2, and Zr-[5-5-2], which exhibit a highly symmetric coordination around the metal center.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bis(phenolato)molybdenum complexes as catalyst precursors for the deoxydehydration of biomass-derived polyols
TL;DR: In this paper, a series of octahedral complexes of hexavalent molybdenum containing an (OSSO)-type bis(phenolate) ligand were prepared and structurally characterized.
