Zwitterionic polymerization of glycolide catalyzed by pyridine

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Pyridine is shown to be an effective catalyst for the snthesis of low molar mass cyclic polyglcolides via zwittzerionic polymerization. The cyclic polyglycolides form extended-ring crystals in the mass range below m / z 3000.
