A compound and the use thereof to prepare a functional or telechelic polyolefin is provided. The compound has the following formula (II):Y((CH)&#x2014;B')&#x2003;&#x2003;(II), wherein

Transfer agent for the preparation of a functional or telechelic polyolefin

The present invention relates to a novel catalytic system for polymerization, and more particularly for preparing conjugated diene polymers bearing a polar function at the chain end. This catalytic system is based on a metal salt of a rare-earth metal and, as alkylating agent, an organometallic compound based on a metal belonging to the 2column or the 13column of the Periodic Table, capable of transferring a polar function to the diene elastomer during the conjugated diene polymerization step. The novel catalytic system makes it possible to reduce the steps for synthesizing a chain-end functionalized elastomer, while ensuring optimal functionalization, advantageously close or equal to 100%.
