Pellis, Alessandro published the artcileEnzymatic synthesis of biobased polyesters utilizing aromatic diols as the rigid component, Computed Properties of 627-93-0, the publication is European Polymer Journal (2020), 109680, database is CAplus.
In the present work, the biocatalyzed synthesis of a series of aromatic-aliphatic polyesters based on the aliphatic diesters di-Me succinate, di-Me adipate and di-Me sebacate and the aromatic diols 2,5-bis(hydroxymethyl)furan, 3,4-bis(hydroxymethyl)furan and 2,6-pyridinedimethanol were investigated. A similar series of polyesters based on the petroleum-based 1,3-benzenedimethanol, 1,4-benzenedimethanol and 1,4-benzenediethanol were also synthesized for comparison. Data show that the enzymic syntheses were successful starting from all diols, with the obtained polymers having isolated yields between 67 and over 90%, number average mol. weights between 3000 Da and 5000 Da and d.p. (DP) of 6-18 (based on the used aliphatic diesters and aromatic diols) when polymerized in di-Ph ether as solvent. Only using 3,4-bis(hydroxymethyl)furan as the diol led to shorter oligomers with isolated yields around 50% and DPs of 3-5. DSC and TGA thermal analyses show clear correlation between polymer crystallinity and aliphatic carbon chain length of the diester.
