Abstract
SummaryThe anionic polymerization of dimethylphenylvinylsilane with sec-butyllithium/N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine (TMEDA) was investigated. The polymerization proceeded up to 100% yield and afforded the polymer having isomerized-structure units. The polymerization was accompanied by chain transfer reaction to the monomer and the polymerization rate in the presence of TMEDA was much lower than in the absence of TMEDA.
