A new lactam monomer containing a vinylidene group was synthesized, namely, 5‐methyl‐3‐methylene‐2‐pyrrolidone (4). The homopolymerization and copolymerization with methyl methacrylate and with styrene were studied. The copolymerization parameters r1 and r2 were also evaluated. Hydrolysis of the pendent lactam groups yields a polyelectrolyte (or homopolymer) with pendent γ‐amino acid units.
