摘要
A highly efficient strategy for the synthesis of polylactide with the UV absorption ability was established by employing a Salan-yttrium complex(acting as a fast runing catalyst) combined with large excess hydroxyl functionalized benzophenone, BP′-OH. During polymerization, BP′-OH, acting as the chain transfer agent, attached to the active rare-earth metal catalyst via a rapid-reversible exchange reaction to initiate the polymerization. Thus, more polyester chains appeared to grow from one active metal species, and the UV absorption fragments were incorporated into the polymer chains at specific sites, in situ. A high productivity up to 1000 mol LA/mol(Salan-Y) was successfully achieved and 100 BP′-labeled PLA chains grew from each active metal center.
