## Abstract Mono and difunctional polystyrenes containing active halogenated end groups were prepared by atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP). Substitution reactions were explored to convert the halogen termini to azido groups, followed by readuction to form the amino functional polymer. Qua

Abstract
Telechelic polystyrenes with five benzyl chloride moieties at the polymer end (PStβE) were prepared by coupling reaction of polystyryllithium with hexakis(4βchloromethylβphenoxy)cyclotriphosphazene (4). The coupling reaction occurs almost quantitatively and unfavorable side reactions were not operative. When a mole ratio [4]/[secβBuLi] = 9.3 was used, polystyrenes with cyclophosphazene carrying five benzyl chloride moieties at the polymer end (PStβE) were obtained in more than 90% yield, which have narrow and predictable molecular weights (M~w~/M~n~ = 1.05). A star shaped polystyrene with phosphazene core could also be prepared by using excess polystyryl anions.
