Disclosed is a technology for the production of polyvinyl ethers having a reactive silicon-containing functional or atomic group at the terminal thereof. The polyvinyl ether as expressed by the formula (VII) is prepared by allowing, in the presence of a catalyst composed of a polynuclear ruthenium-carbonyl complex in which carbonyl groups coordinate with two to four ruthenium atoms, a vinylether compound expressed by the formula (III) to react with a silane compound expressed by the formula (IV). In the formulae, R<SUP>1</SUP>, R<SUP>2 </SUP>and R<SUP>3 </SUP>each represents a hydrogen atom or a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, R<SUP>4 </SUP>represents an alkyl group, a cycloalkyl group, an aryl group, an aralkyl group, or a silyl group, and X<SUP>1</SUP>, X<SUP>2 </SUP>and X<SUP>3 </SUP>each represents a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, an amino group, an alkyl group, an alkoxy group, a thioalkyl group, an alkylamino group, an aryl group, an arylamino group, an aralkyl group a vinyl group, or a heterocyclic group.
