METHOD OF PRODUCTION OF CONJUGATED DIENE RUBBER

There is provided a method of production of a conjugated diene rubber comprising a first step of polymerizing a monomer containing a conjugated diene compound in an inert solvent using a polymerization initiator so as to obtain a conjugated diene polymer chain having an active end, a second step of reacting siloxane with the conjugated diene polymer chain having an active end, and a third step of reacting a compound represented by the following general formula (1) with the conjugated diene polymer chain with which siloxane was reacted obtained in the second step: wherein, in the general formula (1), X 1 represents a functional group selected from a hydrocarbyloxy group, halogen group, and hydroxyl group, R 1 represents a substituted or unsubstituted hydrocarbon group, R 2 and R 3 respectively independently represent a substituted or unsubstituted hydrocarbon group, R 2 and R 3 may bond with each other to form a ring structure together with the nitrogen atom to which they are bound, when forming the ring structure they may form a ring structure together with a hetero atom other than the nitrogen atom to which they are bound in addition to the nitrogen atom to which they are bound, "r" is an integer of 0 to 2.
