Multinuclear alkylaluminium macrocyclic Schiff base complexes: Influence of procatalyst structure on the ring opening polymerisation of ε-caprolactone

Arbaoui, Abdessamad; Redshaw, Carl; Hughes, David L.

Abstract

Two remote dialkylaluminium centres supported by a macrocyclic Schiff base ligand exhibited beneficial cooperative effects, whilst aluminoxane-type bonding proved to be detrimental to activity for the ring opening polymerisation of ε-caprolactone.
