The ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of ε-caprolactone (ε-CL) using lanthanide thiolate complexes [(CH3CsH4)2Sm(μ-SPh)(THF)]2 (1) and Sm(SPh)3(HMPA)3 (2) as initiators has been investigated for t...The ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of ε-caprolactone (ε-CL) using lanthanide thiolate complexes [(CH3CsH4)2Sm(μ-SPh)(THF)]2 (1) and Sm(SPh)3(HMPA)3 (2) as initiators has been investigated for the first time. Both of 1 and 2 were found to be highly efficient initiators for the ROP of ε-CL. The poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) with molecular weight Mn up to 1.97 ×10^5 and relatively narrow molecular weight distributions (1.20〈MW/Mn〈 2.00) have been obtained in high yield in the temperature range of 35-65℃. According to the polymer yield, 2 showed much higher activity than 1. However, the number-average molecular weight of PCL obtained with 2 was much lower than with 1. The possible polymerization mechanism of the ε-CL polymerization has been proposed based on the results of the end group analysis of the ε-CL oligomer.展开更多
Reactions of SmI2 in THF with ArSSAr produced two binuclear samarium thiolate complexes [(THF)3I2- Sm(μ-SAr)]2 [Ar=Ph (1), 4-Me2NC6H4 (2)] in high yields.

The structure of 2 was characterized by single crystal X-ray crystallography. The crystal of 2 belongs to the triclinic system with space group P 1 and a=0.95705(13) nm, b= 1.22287(14) nm, c= 1.26450(14) nm, a=64.194(11)°, B=78.491(13)°, y=76.176(12)°, V= 1.2860(3) nm^3, Z= 1,μ=4.783 mm^-1, Dc= 1.964 Mg/m^3, M= 1521.19, S= 1.046, R1=0.0358, wR2=0.0910. X-ray analysis revealed that 2 is a thiolate-bridged dimer in which each Sm atom adopts a distorted pentagonal bipyramidal coordi- nation geometry.展开更多
The insertion reaction of phenyl isothiocyanate into the Ln S bond was studied. Phenyl isothiocyanate reacted with [(CH 3C 5H 4) 2Sm(SPh)(THF)] 2 to give the title complex, (CH 3C 5H 4) 2Sm[SC(SPh)NPh](THF),...The insertion reaction of phenyl isothiocyanate into the Ln S bond was studied. Phenyl isothiocyanate reacted with [(CH 3C 5H 4) 2Sm(SPh)(THF)] 2 to give the title complex, (CH 3C 5H 4) 2Sm[SC(SPh)NPh](THF), in good yield, which was characterized by elemental analyses, IR, 1H NMR and X ray structural determination. The crystal structure analysis of complex shows that samarium atom is coordinated by two CH 3C 5H 4 groups, one O atom of THF, and N and S atoms from the SC(SPh)NPh ligand to form a distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry.展开更多
