摘要
Yttrium complexes stabilized by a diaminobis(phenolate) ligand were synthesized and their catalytic behavior was explored. Reaction of YCl3 with 1 equiv of LNa2 [L= Me2NCH2CH2N{CH2-(2-O-C6H2-tBu2-3, 5)}2] gave the yttrium chloride LYCl(THF) (1) in 92% yield. Complex 1 can be used as starting material to prepare the yttrium amido derivative. Complex 1 reacted with 1 equiv of LiNPh2 in THF to afford the expected yttrium amido complex LYNPh2 (2) in high yield. Both of complexes 1 and 2 have been well detected by elemental analysis, NMR spectra and single-crystal X-ray analysis. It was found that complex 2 can efficiently initiate the ring-opening polymerization of L-lactide and ε-caprolactone, and a controlled manner is observed in the former case.
