Several research groups have expended great effort toward the preparation of miktoarm (mixed-arm) star copolymers and terpolymers.1-9 In this study, we describe a novel synthesis, using anionic polymerization, of a poly(cyclohexadiene) [PCHD]-polystyrene [PS]-poly(2-vinylpyridine) [P2VP] miktoarm star terpolymer.
