Yttrium-mediated ring-opening polymerization of functionalizable dihydrocarvide: tunable terpene-based polyesters using grafting from and block copolymerization strategies
Poly(dihydrocarvide) (PDHC) is synthesized through ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of terpene-based 7-membered lactone dihydrocarvide (DHC) using an amino-alkoxy-bis(phenolate) yttrium amido catalys...
