Lithium amides have been proved to be effective anionic initiators for the anionic polymerization of acrylonitrile to get high molecular weight polyacrylonitrile in this study. Polyacrylonitrile with weightaverage molecular weight ranging from 1.02×10⁶ g/mol to 1.23×10⁶ g/mol (M_w/M_n=1.9-2.2) could be prepared utilizing lithium amides derived from diisopropylamine, diethylamine, hexamethyldisilazane, dicyclohexylamine, and 2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethylpiperidine as initiators. The polymerization of acrylonitrile proceeded in a homogeneous manner in N, N-dimethylformamide and insignificant contribution of side reactions was confirmed.
