Description

Method for catalyzing ring opening polymerization of cyclic ester by zinc catalyst
Technical Field
The invention relates to a method for catalyzing ring-opening polymerization of cyclic ester by a zinc catalyst, belonging to the technical field of polymer synthetic materials.
Background
In recent years, with the shortage of petroleum resources, the increase of white pollution caused by waste plastics and the increasing of environmental awareness, sustainable polymers with green sources and degradable performances are widely researched. Aliphatic polyester is a typical sustainable polymer, and has been widely used in the fields of food packaging, medical devices, medical polymers, and the like due to its excellent biocompatibility, biodegradability, and mechanical properties comparable to those of conventional petroleum-based polymers, and thus has received increasing attention.
For the research on the synthesis of aliphatic polyester, dicarboxylic acid and derivatives thereof and dihydric alcohol are mainly prepared by a condensation polymerization method in the early stage, but by a polycondensation method, low-molecular-weight or multi-branched by-products exist in the reaction, so that a polyester material with higher molecular weight is difficult to obtain, the molecular weight distribution is wide and difficult to control, and the mechanical properties of the obtained material are limited; and the reaction usually needs high temperature, the conditions are harsh, the reaction activity is low, the reaction time is long, and the reaction difficulty and the cost are increased. In recent years, polyester materials are obtained by ring-opening polymerization of cyclic esters through metal coordination catalysis, and the polyester materials are greatly developed at present because of the advantages of mild reaction conditions, high monomer conversion rate, high molecular weight of the obtained polymers, controllable molecular weight and molecular weight distribution of the polymers and the like.
Only stannous octoate can successfully realize industrial application of the developed cyclic ester coordination polymerization catalyst at present, but the inherent toxicity of metallic tin limits the application of the metallic tin in the fields of biological medicine and the like, so that the development of the environment-friendly metallic catalyst and the realization of the production of polyester by a green and environment-friendly process have important significance for green chemistry. The zinc metal is one of trace elements of human body, has the advantages of low price, no toxicity, no color and the like, and has good development prospect. However, most of the zinc catalysts reported at present need to support the participation of ligands, and the reaction activity and controllability are improved by changing the steric hindrance and the electrical property of the central metal. For example, the Mehrkhodavandi group of subjects realizes the high-activity polymerization of lactide by introducing secondary amine or imine coordination metal zinc to improve the catalytic activity (Inorg. chem., 2016, 55, 9445-9453); garden achieves highly efficient and controlled polymerization of lactide, caprolactone and beta-butyrolactone by introducing an aminophenol ligand (Macromolecules, 2020, 53, 4294-. The preparation of the ligand improves the preparation cost of the catalyst and reduces the production and application value of the catalyst.
Therefore, the method for preparing the polyester material by developing a novel method which is environment-friendly, simple and efficient, realizes the high-activity and high-controllability polymerization of the lactone, and has important significance for promoting the development of sustainable polymers. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a method for catalyzing ring-opening polymerization of cyclic ester by using zinc catalyst.
