Developing chemically recyclable polymers represents a greener alternative to landfill and incineration and offers a closed-loop strategy toward a circular materials economy. However, the synthesis of chemically recyclable polymers is still plagued with certain fundamental limitations, including trade-offs between the monomer's cyclizability and polymerizability, as well as between polymer's depolymerizability and properties. Here we describe the subtle O-to-S substitution, dithiolactone monomers derived from abundant feedstock α-amino acids can demonstrate appealing chemical properties different from those of dilactone, including accelerated ring closure, augmented kinetics polymerizability, high depolymerizability and selectivity, and thus constitute a unique class of polythioester materials exhibiting controlled molecular weight (up to 100.5 kDa), atactic yet high crystallinity, structurally diversity, and chemical recyclability. These polythioesters well addresses the formidable challenges of developing chemically recyclable polymers by having an unusual set of desired properties, including easy-to-make monomer from ubiquitous feedstock, and high polymerizability, crystallinity and precise tunability of physicochemical performance, as well as high depolymerizability and selectivity. Computational studies explain why O-to-S modification of polymer backbone enables dovetailing desirable, but conflicting, performance into one polymer structure.

Lithium acylate α-carbanions generated by metalation of acetic, butanoic, and 2-methylpropanoic acids with lithium diisopropylamide in THF under argon reacted with carbon tetrabromide at 20-25°C (2 h) to produce butanedioic acid or its 2,3-diethyl and 2,2,3,3-tetramethyl derivatives, as well as the corresponding 2-bromocarboxylic acids and bromoform. The effect of the halogen nature in carbon tetrahalide (CCl4, CBr4) on the reaction selectivity is discussed.

The interaction of α-carbanions of lithium acylates (prepared via metalation of acetic, butyric, or isobutyric acid with lithium diisopropylamide in tetrahydrofuran under argon atmosphere) with N,N-diethyl-N-chloro- or N,N-diethyl-N-bromoamine has resulte
