Enzymatic polymerization reaction has gained great interest since biodegradable polymer synthesis could be achieved without the use of toxic catalysts [110]. Due to the possibility of high performance of enzymes in ILs, a large number of polymer synthesis reactions have been carried out in ILs. First of such reactions was studied in [BMIM] [BFJ and [BMIM] [PF ] at 60°C using lipase from C. antarctica...

Aliphatic polyesters can be considered as representatives of synthetic biodegradable polymers. Synthesis of aliphatic polyesters by polycondensation of diols and dicarbox-ylic acids was reported as early as 1930. However, the low melting points, low hydrolytic stability, and low molecular weights of the polymers initially obtained severely limited their application. At the same time, their high hydrolytic instability resulted in a multitude of applications for this class of polymers in the biomedical field, starting with...
