Abstract: A series of double metal cyanide (DMC) catalysts prepared using nitrile compounds as complexing agents (CAs) was employed for the synthesis of polyether, polyester, and polycarbonate polyols. The DMC catalysts bearing nitrile CAs exhibited remarkably higher activities toward the ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of propylene oxide (PO) and ε-caprolactone (CL), as well as toward the copolymerization of PO with CO 2 , than conventional DMC catalysts prepared using tert -butyl alcohol as a CA. Accordingly, DMC catalysts bearing 2-methylbutyronitrile or isobutyronitrile showed the highest activities for the ROP of PO (TOF = 533 min−1) and CL (TOF = 83 h−1), respectively, whereas the DMC using acetonitrile CA exhibited the highest efficiency for the copolymerization of PO and CO 2 (TOF = 475 h−1). The resultant polypropylene oxide polyols were characterized by a narrow polydispersity index (1.1 −1.2) and a low unsaturation level (0.004−0.014). In addition, the DMC catalyst bearing isobutyronitrile afforded α,ω-hydroxyl-terminated polycaprolactones with controlled molecular weights (1000−9800 g mol−1) and a narrow polydispersity index of 1.1−1.5. Polycarbonate polyols with relatively high yields (56–67 %) and carbonate contents (30–38 %) were also obtained. [Display omitted] • Double metal cyanide catalysts using nitriles complexing agents are prepared and intensively characterized. • The catalysts show excellent activities (TOF = 227−533 min−1) for the polymerization of propylene oxide. • α,ω-Polyester polyols with controlled MW (1000–10,000 g mol−1) and narrow polydispersity (1.1–1.5) are achieved. • Polycarbonate polyols are also produced with high yield (56−67 %) and carbonate content (30–38 %).
