During World War I German chemists, whose coxmoy was cut off from its sources of natural rubber by the British blockade, polymerized 3-methyl-isoprene (2,3-dimethyl-1,3-butadiene) units, (CH2=C(CH3)C(CH3)=CH2), obtained from acetone, to form an inferior substitute called methyl rubber. By the end of the war Germany was producing 15 tons (13.6 metric tons) of this rubber per month. The USSR (Union of Soviet Socialist Republics), which built a pilot plant at Leningrad (now St. Petersburg) in 1930 and three factories in 1932 and 1933, was the first country to institute a full-scale synthetic rubber industry.
