## Abstract The ring‐opening polymerization of trimethylene carbonate (TMC) using homoleptic lanthanide amidinate complexes [CyNC(R)NCy]~3~Ln as single component initiators has been fully investigated for the first time. The substituents on amidinate ligands and center metals show great effect on t
