Abstract: | This article describes the synthesis of and catalysis with a polymeric catalyst (Zn/ 1NHCOO ) carrying salen‐zinc complex structure in the main chain prepared from polyaddition of zinc/bis(4‐hydroxy)salicylidene‐1,2‐diiminoethane and 4,4′‐diphenylmethane diisocyanate. Poly(Zn/ 1NHCOO ) promoted the reaction of glycidyl phenyl ether (2) with 1‐propoxyethyl‐2‐ethylhexanoate (3) only at moderately elevated temperatures. Poly(Zn/ 1NHCOO ) can be recycled by simple filtration from the reaction mixtures, and the recycled polymer is as active as the freshly prepared one. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
