Abstract

A process for the manufacture of polymers of net-shaped crosslinked structure and with uniform length of the crosslinks. In this process, polyfunctional organoalkali metal compounds which have been manufactured by reaction of divinylbenzene with low molecular weight organoalkali metal compounds, are reacted direct, or after prior reaction with anionically polymerizable monomers, with bifunctional or polyfunctional coupling agents. The polymers of net-shaped crosslinked structure have macroporous properties and can be employed, for example, as gels in gel permeation chromatography or as carriers in the synthesis of peptides.
