| Research Abstract |
1) Isotactic and syndiotactic PMMA macromonomers having methacryloyl group were prepared from the corresponding living PMMA anions. Anionic copolymerization of the macromonomers with methyl and ethyl methacrylate was successfully carried out by using two living polymerization systems ; 1,1-diphenylhexyllithum in tetrahydrofuran and t-C_4H_9MgBr in toluene. The obtained graft polymers were found stereoregular both in their side chains and main chain. Anionic homopolymerization of the macromonomer was also possible to afford comb PMMA with stereoregular main chain. Owing to the defined end-group structure, 1H NMR analysis allows the determination of several important structural features including number of branches, compositions, and molecular weight.
2) Isotactic and syndiotactic PMMA living anions were reacted with dimethacrylate to obtain star polymers with stereoregular PMMA arms. The reaction with ethylene glycol dimethacrylate proceeded only when the isotactic PMMA anion was used in

the presence of diamines. The syndiotactic PMMA anion gave a star polymer when reacted with butane-1,4-diol dimethacrylate. The molecular weight of the star polymer reached one million. During the formation of the star polymer, intermolecular star-star linking reaction occurred to form higher molecular weight star polymers, as evidenced from the analysis on the change in the number of arms and molecular weight of the star polymers.
3) Several characteristic properties of stereoregular branched PMMA were examined. Graft PMMA having opposite stereoregularities in its main chain and side chains underwent intramolecular stereocomplex formation in asetone, leading to an unusually large Huggins' coefficient. Moecular-weight dependence of viscosity of comb PMMA exhibited the structural change from star-like conformation to comb-like one at critical molecular weight range, which was affected by the stereoregularity of the comb polymer. Viscosity of star PMMA also showed evidently the tacticity dependence, the isotactic star PMMA having larger viscosity than the syndiotactic one. Less
