Copolyesters were synthesized in a high throughput (HT) manner and in high yield on ca. a 90 mg scale using entropically driven ring-opening polymerizations (ED-ROPs). This synthetic approach is a valuable addition to the HT polymer synthesis arsenal in that it allows condensation-type polymers with relatively large repeat units, such as those in poly(ethylene terephthalate) and poly(butylene terephthalate), to be obtained easily. The synthetic procedure involved taking mixtures of the appropriate macrocyclic oligoesters and heating them together under neat conditions at 250-300 degrees C for 2 h in the presence of 0.1 mol % of di-n-butyltin oxide or tetra-n-butylammonium tetrafluoroborate. In most cases Mw values were > 25 000 and, as expected for ED-ROPs, the polydispersity indices were close to 2.0. Higher molecular weights could be obtained by using longer reaction times, but this might lead to product decomposition. The method worked well for esters formally derived from aliphatic or aromatic acids and alcohols, but less well for esters derived from phenols. Attempts were also made to synthesize copolymers by mixing together the two homopolymers and heating with a catalyst. These reactions were successful in a few instances, but generally, they were not. This is probably because the homopolymers did not mix well. An aluminum reaction block with 36 wells lined with Teflon cups, that fitted snugly in a cylindrical Buchi oven, was the most successful method for carrying out syntheses in an HT manner.
