Abstract
A stable and non-polar solvent soluble alpha-methylstyrene-conjugated diene oligomer dilithium as a polymerization initiator is obtained by preparing a dilithium initiator solution by reacting lithium metal with alpha-methylstyrene in a polar solvent at low temperature, thereafter adding gradually a small amount of a conjugated diene to the dilithium initiator solution to consume completely the alpha-methylstyrene, and then adding additional conjugated diene in a certain amount so as to prepare the stable and non-polar solvent soluble alpha-methylstyrene-conjugated diene oligomer dilithium.
