Abstract
To provide a method for producing a polymer that is capable of providing an alkenyl ether polymer having a molecular weight, a molecular weight distribution, and a composition that are controlled, with a vinyl ether having a hydroxyl group, and a block copolymer thereof. To provide a polymer obtained by the method as a macro chain transfer agent capable of performing reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer polymerization. Livingness can be imparted to radical polymerization of a hydroxyl group-containing vinyl ether by performing the radical polymerization in the presence of a particular RAFT agent and a radical polymerization initiator, and a block copolymer with another radically polymerizable vinyl monomer can be obtained by using the resulting living polymer as a macro chain transfer agent capable of performing reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer polymerization.
