Line 21:
Two broad classes of monomers are susceptible to anionic polymerization.<ref name="Quirk"/>
Vinyl monomers have the formula CH<sub>2</sub>=CHR, the most important are styrene (R = C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>5</sub>), butadiene (R = CH=CH<sub>2</sub>), and isoprene (R = C(Me)=CH<sub>2</sub>). A second major class of monomers are acrylate esters, such as [[acrylonitrile]], [[methacrylate]], [[cyanoacrylate]], and [[acrolein]]. Other vinyl monomers include [[vinylpyridine]], vinyl [[sulfone]], vinyl [[sulfoxide]], [[vinyl silane]]s.<ref name="Quirk"/>
