Radical copolymerization of the complexed 2-vinylpyridine with vinyl acetate and divinylbenzene initiated by azobisisobutyronitrile was carried out in N, N-dimethylformamide in presence of barium chloride at $98{\circ}C$. In the preparation of 2-vinylpyridine-vinylacetate-divinylbenzene terpolymer, the optimum reaction conditions were studied by means of various temperatures and times. 2-vinylpyridine-vinylalcohol-divinybenzene resin was prepared by transesterificating 2-vinylpyridine-vinylacetate-divinylbenzene terpolymer with a 1% methanolic sodium hydroxide solution. 2-Vinylpyridine-vinylphosphate-divinyldenzene was prepared by phosphorylating 2-vinylpyridine-vinylalcohol-divinylbenzene resin with phosphoric acid and urea. The compositions of each synthetic resin were identified by means of infrared absorption spectroscopy. The ion exchange capacities of each 2-vinylpyridine-vinylalcohol-divinylbenzene and 2-vinylpyridine-vinylphosphate-divinylbenzene terpolymer was 3.69 meq/g and 5.38 meq/g.
