Abstract
Polymerization of isobutylene in n-hexane at -78 degrees C initiated b y MeCOBr . AlBr3 was studied. The results obtained were compared with the corresponding data for RCOX . 2AIBr(3) complexes (R = Me or Ph, X = Cl or Br). The main peculiarities of the polymerization mechanism un der the action of MeCOBr . AlBr3 were established. The rate constants of proton elimination and of chain termination and chain growth were d etermined experimentally.
