Abstract The polymerizability of an azastyrene derivative, 2,6‐diisopropyl‐ N ‐methyleneaniline (DiPMAn), was studied. Although DiPMAn could not be polymerized by radical and anionic initiators, it was polymerized with cationic initiators, such as trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), TiCl 4 ‐TFA, and SnCl 4 ‐TFA. The polymer is formed by 1,6‐addition with electrophilic substitution of an activated monomer in para ‐position of the aromatic ring.
