  • Patent number: 8247520
    Abstract: In one aspect, the present disclosure encompasses polymerization systems for the copolymerization of CO2 and epoxides comprising 1) a catalyst including a metal coordination compound having a permanent ligand set and at least one ligand that is a polymerization initiator, and 2) a chain transfer agent having two or more sites that can initiate polymerization. In a second aspect, the present disclosure encompasses methods for the synthesis of polycarbonate polyols using the inventive polymerization systems. In a third aspect, the present disclosure encompasses polycarbonate polyol compositions characterized in that the polymer chains have a high percentage of —OH end groups and a high percentage of carbonate linkages. The compositions are further characterized in that they contain polymer chains having an embedded polyfunctional moiety linked to a plurality of individual polycarbonate chains.

  • Patent number: 6384026
    Abstract: The present invention describes an isolated macrocycle having the formula: where d is an integer from 0 to about 100; A, B, and each D are the same or different and are selected from the group consisting of each R1 is the same or different and is a bivalent alkylene moiety; each R2 is the same or different and is a bivalent alkylene moiety; and each R3 is the same or different and is selected from the group consisting of a hydrogen atom and an alkyl moiety. Methods for producing these macrocycles are also described. The macrocycles of the present invention can be used as arthropod repellents.
