A cesium imino-phosphanamidinate, [{NHIDippP(Ph)NDipp}Cs], enabling efficient ring-opening (co)polymerization of rac-LA and ϵ-CL is disclosed. Owing to the highly controlled polymerization, precise di-block copolymers (PLA-b-PCL) with different block lengths can be produced by a simple one-pot reaction. NMR, GPC, DSC and microscopic analyses confirm the production of di-block copolymers with crystalline properties. © 2023 The Royal Society of Chemistry
