This paper describes a new class of reaction, group‐transfer alternating copolymerization (GTAC), between 2‐phenyl‐1,3,2‐dioxaphosphorinane ( 1 ) and trimethylsilyl 2‐(acryloyloxy)ethanesulfonate ( 2 ). The copolymerization took place without any added catalyst and proceeded via quantitative trimethylsilyl group‐transfer process to give a 1:1 alternating copolymer 3a having a ketene silyl acetal group in the main chain. Results of spectroscopy as well as alkaline hydrolysis and bromination of the copolymer confirmed the structure.
