Objects of the present invention are to provide a process for easily
producing an alkenyl-terminated vinyl polymer without using a metal
compound requiring a complicated purification step, and to provide a
curable composition containing the vinyl polymer. An alkenyl group is
incorporated into an end of a vinyl polymer having a thiocarbonylthio
structure at the end to produce an alkenyl-terminated vinyl polymer.
Mixing this vinyl polymer with a compound having a hydrogen-silicon bond
and a hydrosilylation catalyst gives the curable composition.
