Zn(II)- and Mg(II)-Complexes of a Tridentate {ONN} Ligand: Application to Poly(lactic acid) Production and Chemical Upcycling of Polyesters

The synthesis and characterization of two homoleptic Zn(II)- and Mg(II)-complexes based on a simple tridentate {NNO} ligand are reported. The production of biocompatible atactic poly(lactic acid) (...
