Abstrakt: For the first time, a quantum-chemical study of the initiation mechanism of the cationic polymerisation monomer p-methylstyrene in the presence of a complex catalyst of aluminum chloride -- hydrochloric acid in toluene with a stoichiometric composition of 1:1:4 by the ab initio method was performed. We showed that the energy barrier is 15 kJ/mol, and the thermal effect of the reaction is 113 kJ/mol. The reaction is of exotermic character and represents the usual acceptance of a proton from the complex catalyst AlCl3-HCl and its attachment to the most hydrogenated carbon atom C(1).
