✦ Synopsis

The synthetic strategies available for the synthesis of miktoarm star (-star) polymers with molecular weight, chemical, or topological asymmetry are reviewed. All strategies are based on functional living polymer chains and linking agents. Although each strategy has its weak and strong points, it seems that anionic polymerization combined with chlorosilane methodology yields the widest variety of model single and double -stars. These novel architectures open new horizons in polymer science and technology.

## Abstract The first organometallic miktoarm star copolymer, PFS(PI)~3~ (PFS = polyferrocenyldimethylsilane, PI = polyisoprene) with PDI of 1.04 was synthesized through anionic polymerization by using SiCl~4~ as the coupling agent and its well‐defined structure was characterized by using GPC and ^
