The polymerization of cyclic olefins may be initiated by tungsten hexachloride alone. The rate of polymerization is less than that normally obtained with bimetallic catalysts but the equilibrium conversion monomer is of the same order.

Zn(OAc) 2 β€’2H 2 O is found to be an effective bulk polymerization catalyst for the ring-opening polymerization of rac-lactide, l-lactide, -caprolactone and ␦-valerolactone. The propensity of polymerizations can be enhanced by performing them in the presence of appropriate amounts of different alcoho
