Abstract
We report an aniline ligand (1) with two bis(pyrazolyl)alkane arms, and its cationic, dizinc complexes. XRD, NMR, and modelling of the dizinc complexes resulted in an unprecedented, dynamic μ-anilide core. Compared with published μ-phenolate analogues, our μ-anilide complexes show higher activity and divergent counterion trends in ring-opening polymerization of rac-lactide.
