The synthesis of A2B2 heteroarm stars, where A is polyisoprene (PI) and B is poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) has been achieved using living anionic polymerization. A divinyl coupling agent 1,1-(1,2-ethandiyl)bis(4-(1-phenylethenyl)benzene) (EPEB) was used to link together polyisoprenyllithium chains and create a dianion from which methyl methacrylate (MMA) polymerization could be initiated and thus form a four-armed star. PI−PMMA diblocks were synthesized by sequential anionic polymerization. Characterization was performed using size exclusion chromatography (SEC), 1H NMR, and membrane osmometry. Hydrogenation of the polymers using toluenesulfonyl hydrazide yielded the corresponding poly(ethylene-alt-propylene)−PMMA stars and diblocks.
