New initiators for anionic polymerization reactions are key compounds for the synthesis of macromolecules with controlled structure [1]. In this communication we would like to present a new experimental procedure for the synthesis of an efficient initiator for anionic polymerization, lithium naphthalenide, under mild conditions.
