Aluminum complexes, [O3PMe]AlR(R = OtBu, OPh), containing tris-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-2-hydroxy-phenyl)phosphine ([O3P]H3) which is a novel tridentate ligand have been synthesized and characterized by NMR, X-ray diffraction and elemental analysis. Theses complexes were used as catalysts for ring-opening polymerization of £`-caprolactone. We suggested that the stereo effect of catalysts is the main factor in the ring-opening polymerization and compared the mechanism with DFT. In additional, we studied the electronic states and electronic chemistry of [O3PMe]AlR by DFT, UV and PLE.
The novel ligand, bis(3,5-tert-butyl-2-phenoxy) tert-butylphosphine ([tBuOPO]H2), reacted with alkali metals such as n-BuLi, NaH and KH to form a series metal complexes, [tBuOPO]M2(Solvent)x (M = Li, Na, K). These metal complexes are all dimeric molecules characterized by X-ray diffraction, NMR and elemental analysis. Moreover, we reacted {[tBuOPO]Li2(DME)}2 with metal complexes of group 4, TiCl3 and MCl4(THF)2 (M = Ti, Zr, Hf), and we received [tBuOPO]2M and [tBuOPO]MCl2(THF) (M = Ti, Zr, Hf). We also synthesized alkoxide complexes of the series metal complexes and studied the catalytic reactivity for ring-opening polymerizations. Furthermore, tantalum complexes, [tBuOPO]2TaX (X = F, Cl) and [tBuOPO]TaCl3, have been synthesized and characterized. Especially synthesizing [tBuOPO]TaCl3 should be carefully controlled by lowering the concentration of TaCl5.
