Abstract

This invention provides a three-center Schiff base catalyst and its preparation method, as well as a method for preparing poly(ethylene glycol) lactide. The three-center Schiff base catalyst has a structure shown in Formula I or Formula II, both of which contain three active sites. The catalytic activity is enhanced through synergistic coordination among the three metal centers. Furthermore, in the preparation method of the catalyst provided by this invention, the synthesis process of the Schiff base compound and the catalyst involves multiple continuous reactions in a one-pot process, saving the purification process of intermediates, reducing the use of organic solvents, simplifying the production process, increasing the catalyst yield, and reducing production costs. This invention uses the catalyst to catalyze the ring-opening polymerization of glycolide and lactide to produce poly(ethylene glycol) lactide. Gel permeation chromatography analysis shows that the prepared poly(ethylene glycol) lactide has a high number-average molecular weight, exceeding 70,000 g / mol, and a high yield, exceeding 94%.
