## 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

Ring-opening polymerization of lactone and lactide have been initiated with rare earth organoacid compounds, such as lanthanum acetate in bulk. The polymerization mechanism is in agreement with the "nonionic-coordination-insertion" mechanism, which involves the selective cleavage of the acyl-oxygen
## Abstract The kinetics and controllability of the Ti[OCH~2~CCl~3~]~4~‐initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of __n__‐butyl acrylate were investigated. Then, with Ti[OCH~2~CCl~3~]~4~ as the initiator, poly(ϵ‐caprolactone)‐__block__‐poly(__n__‐butyl acrylate) (PCL‐__b__‐PBA) copolym
