Reactions of α-lithioisobutyric acid esters were studied as models of partial reaction taking place during anionic polymerization of methacrylate esters. The rates of selfcondensation reactions and condensations with nonmetalated esters were determined for these models. In both cases ketoesters were the final products. Besides esters of α,α,α′-trimethylglutaric acid expected according to Michael's reaction scheme the addition of methacrylate esters to α-lithio esters also yielded oligomeric compounds due to repeated addition of methacrylate esters. The α-lithio oligomers of methacrylate esters underwent cyclization condensation which gave rise to esters of substituted cyclohexanonedicarboxylic acids. The alkali metal alkoxides slowed down all the condensation reactions of α-lithio esters investigated here. Such effect of alkoxides also appeared in the cyclization condensation of compounds formed by repeated addition of methacrylate esters, because in the presence of alkoxides the reaction mixture contained a higher amount of higher molecular weight compounds than in a system without alkoxide. The effect of alkoxides observed here is in accordance with the view that the cyclization condensation is one of the termination reactions of the anionic polymerization of methacrylate esters.
