Abstract
Triphenylborane catalyzes the polymerization of anhydrides and epoxides along with the block co-polymerization of anhydride/epoxides with epoxides/CO2. Switching to the more Lewis acidic borane, tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane, the carbonate block of the polymer could be selectively depolymerized to yield the corresponding cyclic carbonate opening the door towards chemical repurposing of the polymer.Entities:
