Biodegradable polycarbonates from lignocellulose based 4-pentenoic acid and carbon dioxide

The production of biodegradable polycarbonate by copolymerizing CO(2) with epoxides has emerged as an effective method to utilize CO(2) in response to growing concerns about CO(2) emissions and plastic pollution. Previous studies have mainly focused on the preparation of CO(2)-based polycarbonates f...

description The production of biodegradable polycarbonate by copolymerizing CO(2) with epoxides has emerged as an effective method to utilize CO(2) in response to growing concerns about CO(2) emissions and plastic pollution. Previous studies have mainly focused on the preparation of CO(2)-based polycarbonates from petrochemical-derived propylene oxide (PO) or cyclohexene oxide (CHO). However, to reduce dependence on fossil fuels, the development of 100% bio-based polymers has gained attention in polymer synthesis. Herein, we reported the synthesis of glycidyl 4-pentenoate (GPA) from lignocellulose based 4-pentenoic acid (4-PA), which was further copolymerized with CO(2) using a binary catalyst SalenCoCl/PPNCl to produce bio-based polycarbonates with vinyl side chains and molecular weights up to 17.1 kg/mol. Introducing a third monomer, PO, allows for the synthesis of the GPA/PO/CO(2) terpolymer, and the glass transition temperature (T ( g )) of the terpolymer can be adjusted from 2°C to 19°C by controlling the molar feeding ratio of GPA to PO from 7:3 to 3:7. Additionally, post-modification of the vinyl side chains enables the production of functional polycarbonates, providing a novel approach to the preparation of bio-based materials with diverse side chains and functions.
