Although the mechanism of the acid catalyzed ring opening polymerization of sigma-decalactone is slightly different than the mechanism of Sn(Oct)2 catalyzed lactide polymerization, both reactions are of the same type. Identify the reaction type and propose a reasonable mechanism for the acid catalyzed reaction of 1,4-benzene dimethanol with sigma-decalactone (in a 1:1 stoichiometry).
