## Abstract The kinetics of the polymerization of methyl methacrylate initiated by lithium alkyls (__tert__‐butyllithium or ethyl α‐lithiobutyrate) was investigated in the presence of aluminium alkyls (triethylaluminium or triisobutylaluminium) in toluene at −78°C. The rate of polymerization decrea
