Preparation of a macromolecular monomer of a lactone allows the preparation of copolymers of lactones with commonly available olefinically unsaturated monomers. There is no known method for the preparation of such copolymers. A cationic ring-opening polymerization of a lactone in conjunction with an unsaturated alcohol (propagator) having an acryloyl, allyl or styryl double bond, produces a polylactone macromer having an ethylenic double bond at one end and a hydroxyl group at the other. The polymerization proceeds by polyaddition of the lactone to the OH group which is the propagating species. The polylactone may include a polymeric or non-polymeric spacer. The propagator is a primary or secondary alcohol which, if cyclic may have a single internal double bond in one ring. The catalyst is an oxonium salt, or etherate of boron trifluoride. The macromer may be copolymerized with a wide variety of olefinically unsaturated monomers to form a macromer copolymer with pendant polylactone chains. In particular, block copolymers of terminally unsaturated macromers of ether-ester, or ester-ether structure may be tailored for specific applications.
制备内酯大分子单体可以制备内酯与常见烯烃不饱和单体的共聚物。目前还没有制备这种共聚物的已知方法。内酯与具有丙烯酰基、烯丙基或苯乙烯酰基双键的不饱和醇(促进剂)进行阳离子开环聚合,可生成一端具有乙烯基双键、另一端具有羟基的聚内酯大分子。聚合反应是通过内酯与羟基的加成反应进行的,而羟基是聚合反应的传播物质。聚内酯可包括聚合物或非聚合物间隔物。繁殖体是伯醇或仲醇,如果是环状的,在一个环上可能有一个内部双键。催化剂为三氟化硼的羰基盐或醚化物。大色母粒可与多种烯烃不饱和单体共聚,形成具有下垂聚内酯链的大色母粒共聚物。特别是,醚-酯或酯-醚结构的末端不饱和大单体的嵌段共聚物可针对特定应用进行定制。
