Functionalized polycarbonates via triphenylborane catalyzed polymerization-hydrosilylation.

ABSTRACT: Triphenylborane catalyzes the copolymerization and terpolymerization of epoxides and CO₂ to yield polycarbonates with excellent dispersity. Via assisted tandem catalysis, these materials could be hydrosilylated in a one-pot fashion yielding modified polymeric materials. Using only a few reagents, materials with glass transition temperatures ranging from 37-110 °C were obtained.
