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.

Al(iii) acts as a Lewis acid for the ring-opening of an epoxide by Cl− attack and this yields stereo selective ring-opening polymerization of rac-lactide to yield iso-polylactide.
