From meso-Lactide to Isotactic Polylactide: Epimerization by B/N Lewis Pairs and Kinetic Resolution by Organic Catalysts

B/N Lewis pairs have been discovered to catalyze rapid epimerization of meso-lactide (LA) or LA diastereomers quantitatively into rac-LA. The obtained rac-LA is kinetically polymerized into poly­(l-lactide) and optically resolved d-LA, with a high stereoselectivity k L/k D of 53 and an ee of 91% at...

description B/N Lewis pairs have been discovered to catalyze rapid epimerization of meso-lactide (LA) or LA diastereomers quantitatively into rac-LA. The obtained rac-LA is kinetically polymerized into poly­(l-lactide) and optically resolved d-LA, with a high stereoselectivity k L/k D of 53 and an ee of 91% at 50.6% monomer conversion, by newly designed bifunctional chiral catalyst 4 that incorporates three key elements (β-isocupreidine core, thiourea functionality, and chiral BINAM) into a single organic molecule. The epimerization and enantioselective polymerization can be coupled into a one-pot process for transforming meso-LA directly into poly­(l-lactide) and d-LA.
