The end‐functionalized polystyrene is synthesized by a new initiator, 5‐chloromethyl‐8‐hydroxyquinoline (5‐ClCH 2 Q), via atom transfer radical polymerization. The existence of the oxyquinoline group on the chain end was confirmed by 1 H‐NMR. The polymers can be easily changed into films with good fluorescence property and nonlinear third‐order optical property. Coordinating the oxyquinoline group with Eu 3+ and La 3+ , the fluorescent intensity and third‐order nonlinear optical coefficient will be enhanced much more. The proportion of the oxyquinoline group coordinating and rare‐earth metal is 3:2 determined by titrimetric analysis. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 97: 2067–2071, 2005
