Question

Why anionic polymer is called living polymer?

Answer 1

The transfer of an electron from a donor molecule to the vinyl monomer leads to the formation of an anionradical, the so-called carbanion: Typical electron donors (Lewis bases or nucleophiles) are alkali metals, such as lithium or sodium.
