Abstract:
The present invention relates to unsaturated amine-functional silane compounds of the formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 are independently selected from the group consisting of alkoxy radicals having from 1 to 8 carbon atoms, alkyl radicals having 1 to 8 carbon atoms and aryl radicals having 6 carbon atoms, with the proviso that at least one of R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 is an alkoxy radical; R.sup.4 is selected from the group consisting of alkylene groups having from 1 to 18 carbon atoms and arylene and alkyl substituted arylene groups having from 6 to 10 carbon atoms; R.sup.5 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and an alkyl group having 1 carbon atom and X is a halogen atom selected from the group consisting of Cl, Br and I.

Abstract:
This invention reveals a process for preparing high vinyl polybutadiene rubber which comprises polymerizing 1,3-butadiene monomer with a lithium initiator at a temperature which is within the range of about 5.degree. C. to about 100.degree. in the presence of a sodium alkoxide and a polar modifier, wherein the molar ratio of the sodium alkoxide to the polar modifier is within the range of about 0.1:1 to about 10:1; and wherein the molar ratio of the sodium alkoxide to the lithium initiator is within the range of about 0.05:1 to about 10:1.
