## Abstract The ring‐opening polymerization (ROP) of ε‐caprolactone (CL) was carried out in toluene at 100 °C with __n__‐propanol (__n__PrOH) in the presence of Bu~2~SnCl~2~. It comes out that the molar mass of the polyester chains can be predicted from the initial monomer‐to‐alcohol molar ratio in
