AI Technical Summary
Existing catalysts are difficult to prepare isotactic P(Me-DBO) with high regularity in the stereoselective ring-opening polymerization of racemic lactone Me-DBO, and existing rare earth metal complexes of Salph ligand and Salen ligand cannot achieve crystallization of highly isotactic or syndiotactic polymers, which limits their application range.
We designed and prepared binaphol Salph ligands and Salph catalysts, which were then coordinated with the metal reagent MXn to form a catalyst for the selective ring-opening polymerization of racemic Me-DBO. The reaction was carried out using specific solvents and initiators at a certain temperature, and the highly regular P(Me-DBO) was obtained by separation and purification.
The stereoselective ring-opening polymerization of racemic Me-DBO was achieved, and isotactic polymers with regularity higher than 0.98 were prepared, which solved the problem of low regularity in the prior art and broadened the application field of Salph ligands and catalysts.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of catalyst design, specifically relating to a binaphol Salph ligand, a method for preparing Salph catalyst, and its application in the stereoselective ring-opening polymerization of racemic lactone Me-DBO to prepare isotactic P (Me-DBO). Background Technology
[0002] Since their inception, polymer materials have brought great convenience to people's lives due to their low price and superior performance, and their production has increased year by year. By 2021, global plastic production had exceeded 390 million tons. However, most plastics have short lifespans and are difficult to degrade, causing enormous pollution to the environment. At the same time, most plastics are derived from petroleum resources, and their disposal also results in a huge waste of resources.
[0003] To address this problem, we designed a Me-DBO monomer, whose polymer exhibits superior properties, T g With a melting point as high as 110℃, and through stereopolymerization of optically pure polymers with different configurations, crystallinity is significantly enhanced, reaching over 300℃, making them highly promising for applications in high-temperature resistant and other specialty polymer materials. Furthermore, the monomers can be recovered through thermal degradation and reused for polymerization, avoiding environmental pollution and resource waste. However, the optically pure monomer Me-DBO requires chiral resolution with quinine, which is difficult and costly, limiting its application. Stereoselective ring-opening polymerization of racemic lactone monomer Me-DBO to prepare isotactic polymers can significantly reduce costs and promote industrial application; the key lies in catalyst design. We first tried rare-earth metal complexes of Salph ligand L1 and Salen ligands L2 and L3 as catalysts, as reported in the literature, but neither yielded polymers with high isotactic regularity. Using L1 only yielded syndiotactic polymers, while L2 and L3 yielded atactic polymers. More importantly, the polymers obtained with these ligands were all amorphous and could not crystallize, greatly limiting their application range. Summary of the Invention

[0123] The specific preparation steps of the above reaction route are as follows:
[0124] Monomers Me-DBO (100 mg, 0.42 mmol) and (R)-3b (1.3 mg, 1.05 μmol) were weighed into a 4 mL screw-cap sample vial. Toluene (210 μL) and a toluene solution of initiator 4-MeC6H4CH2OH (1.05 μmol) were added. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 22 h. After the polymerization reaction reached equilibrium, the reaction was quenched with 0.2 mL of deuterated chloroform solution containing 1 wt.% benzoic acid. The solution was then added dropwise to methanol to allow the polymer to precipitate. The polymer was dissolved in CHCl3 and precipitated again from the methanol solution. This process was repeated once more to completely remove unreacted monomers. The polymer was dried in a vacuum oven at 60 °C until its weight no longer changed. The molecular weight of the polymer was analyzed by GPC to obtain M. n = 29.7 kg / mol, K = 1.14; the isotacticity of the polymer was characterized by NMR at 400 MHz using CDCl3 as a reagent, P m = 0.92, see Figure 17 , 18 .
