23. Ring-opening polymerization of L-lactide without transesterification, should exclusively yield chains containing an even number of repeat units since the L-lactide monomer is composed of two lactyl units.

29. The low amount of intermolecular reaction may be due to soft conditions of polymerization (110°C, 4 h). As in other systems, increasing the reaction time causes an increase of transesterification side reactions.
