Living anionic polymerization has been a versatile technique for controlled synthesis of polymers with well-defined structures, e.g. block, graft, star, macromonomers and end-functionalized polymers. This technique allows one to control the molecular properties such as molecular weight, polydispersity, tacticity, and topology of the polymers, that ultimately helps in controlling the polymer properties. Anionic polymerization of methyl methacrylate is inherently complicated by side-reactions and proceeds in controlled manner only under carefully chosen conditions such as low temperature, polar...
