In this paper, we report synthesis and radical polymerization of new organic－inorganic hybrid monomers, zinc bis(allyldithiocarbamate)s. All of the monomers have no absorption at visible region. Their nD values, estimated from the concentration dependence of the nD values of the monomers, were higher than 1.60. A white insoluble product was obtained by radical homopolymerization of zinc bis(diallyldithiocarbamate) (Zn(DADTC)2). Moreover, radical copolymerization of Zn(DADTC)2 with methyl methacrylate and styrene gave colorless products. The resulting polymers were tolerant to treatment with organic solvents.
