✦ Synopsis


The present study demonstrates the polymerization of ketenes by using lanthanoid isopropoxide as a novel initiator to produce a polyester of high molecular weight. This is the first example of an efficient room-temperature polymerization of ketenes. As a result of model reactions, it is indicated that the /I-lactone type ketene cyclic dimer does not participate in the polyester formation from the ketene monomer with lanthanoid alkoxides, and that the alternating repetition of 0-acylation of the La ketone-enolate and C-acylation of the La ester-enolate is the most likely mechanism.

A spiro orthoester having an ester moiety, 2-acetoxymethyl-1,4,6trioxaspiro[4.6]undecane (4) was synthesized, and its cationic polymerization and depolymerization of the obtained polymer (5) were carried out. The monomer 4 underwent cationic polymerization with a cationic catalyst to afford the corr
