Synthesis and Controlled Organobase-Catalyzed Ring-Opening Polymerization of Morpholine-2,5-Dione Derivatives and Monomer Recovery by Acid-Catalyzed Degradation of the Polymers

Abstract: Polydepsipeptides (PDPs) are strictly alternating copolymers of α-hydroxy acids and α-amino acids produced via the ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of morpholino-2,5-dione derivatives (MDs). They have been used as promising biomaterials for their combined high thermal stability and good mechanical properties of polyamides as well as the inherent degradability of polyesters. ROP of MDs is usually carried out at high temperatures with metal catalysts or enzymes, with less control over the polymer molecular weig… Show more

“…The current largely unsustainable plastics manufacturing, consumption, and disposal schemes have caused alarming plastics problems associated with their environmental pollution as well as tremendous energy and materials value loss in the economy. [1][2][3][4] Among several approaches being explored [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16] to combat such problems, the development of next-generation, chemically recyclable polymers [17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33] promises a circular plastics economy approach to address these complex issues. [34][35][36] Monomer design 37,38 is the cornerstone of discovering new circular polymers with intrinsic chemical recyclability, the design of which requires to overcome typical trade-offs between monomer's polymerizability and polymer's depolymerizability, as well as between polymer's recyclability and performance, until a practically useful balance is struck.…”

“…Polycondensation in aqueous solution is characterized by mild reaction conditions (temperature <80–90 °C, atmospheric pressure) and minimal side processes; however, it is necessary to take measures aimed at overcoming thermodynamic limitations and shifting equilibrium towards polymer formation. In the case of ring-opening polymerization, derivatives of 2,5-diketomorpholine are used as starting monomers; 2,5-diketomorpholine is a cyclodepsipeptide—a condensation product of amino and hydroxy acids [ 188 ]. The most common catalyst used for this reaction is tin(II) octoate (tin(II) 2-ethylhexanoate) This is a typical catalyst for ring-opening polymerization of lactones [ 189 , 190 , 191 ].…”

“…The thermal stability is almost the same as that of the poly(propylene oxide‐ alt ‐PA) ( T d 5 % of 269 °C), [16] while the T g of poly(TAz‐ alt ‐PA) significantly increase than the poly(propylene oxide‐ alt ‐PA) ( T g of 55 °C), [17] because of amide linkages. Compared with poly[(3S)‐3‐benzyl 6‐methyl‐morpholine‐2, 5‐dione] from ROP of (3S)‐3‐benzyl 6‐methyl‐morpholine‐2, 5‐dione ( T d 5 % of 295 °C, T g of 100 °C), [4a] the decreasing in thermal stability was observed, and the T g of poly(TAz‐ alt ‐PA) increases under the influence of the benzene ring in backbone.…”
