Three tin(II) butoxides, namely: tin(II) n-butoxide, Sn(n-OBu)2; tin(II) i-butoxide, Sn(i-OBu)2; and tin(II) t-butoxide, Sn(t-OBu)2 were synthesized for use as coordination-insertion initiators in the bulk ring-opening polymerisation of e-caprolactone (CL) at 120 °C. Two different methods of synthes...
