For entangled linear polymer having type A dipoles and undergoing head-to-head association and dissociation reaction, viscoelastic and dielectric behavior is theoretically analyzed on the basis of the reptation dynamics combined with the reaction kinetics. Specifically, for the dissociated unimer and associated dimer (indexed with j = 1 and 2, respectively), the normalized complex modulus gj*(ω) and the normalized complex dielectric permittivity ej*(ω) are analytically calculated via eigenfunction expansion of the orientational anisotropy and orientational memory defined in terms of the bond vectors u of entanglement segments. The reaction activates mutual conformational transfer between the unimer and dimer. Multiple coupling occurs for the anisotropy decay modes of the unimer and dimer due to this transfer, and the viscoelastic g1* and g2* of the unimer and dimer, respectively, exhibit considerably retarded and accelerated relaxation compared to the pure reptation case. In contrast, the memory decay mo...
