A plausible mechanism for ring-opening polymerization of lactide catalyzed by Zn(C6F5)2-based Lewis pairs was proposed based on in situ NMR and MALDI-TOF MS analyses. Several experimental results show very good consistency with the proposed mechanism.

Simple Lewis pairs consisting of organobases and zinc salts were explored to promote ring-opening polymerization of phenyl O-carboxyanhydride via bifunctional catalysis, producing well-defined poly(α-hydroxyalkanoic acid)s with good isotacticity (Pm = 0.88).

The convergence of artificial intelligence and machine learning with material science holds significant promise to rapidly accelerate development timelines of new high-performance polymeric materials. Within this context, we report an inverse design strategy for polycarbonate and polyester discovery based on a recommendation system that proposes polymerization experiments that are likely to produce materials with targeted properties. Following recommendations of the system driven by the historical ring-opening polymerization results, we carried out experiments targeting specific ranges of monomer conversion and dispersity of the polymers obtained from cyclic lactones and carbonates. The results of the experiments were in close agreement with the recommendation targets with few false negatives or positives obtained for each class.<br>
