The cationic polymerization of isoprene using alkyl halide/Et 2 AlCl initiating system (alkyl halide:  tert -butyl chloride,  tert -butyl bromide, 2-chloro-2-methylbutane and isopropyl chloride) at different temperatures has been studied. It was shown for the first time that using of tertiary alkyl halide in conjunction with Et 2 AlCl allowed to synthesize fully soluble solid thermoplastic polymers with reduced unsaturation (41–48 mol%) as well as relatively high glass transition temperature (52–60°С) and softening point (102–128°С). The substitution of tertiary alkyl halides on the secondary one (isopropyl chloride) results in the obtaining of cross-linked polymers due to the low activity of isopropyl chloride in chain transfer to alkyl halide. It was found that alkyl halide nature, the ratio of alkyl halide to Et 2 AlCl, duration and temperature of the polymerization of isoprene have dramatic effect on the unsaturation of synthesized polymers as well as their molecular weight, polydispersity, physical and chemical properties.
