Disclosed herein are processes for preparing functionalized polymers, functionalizing compounds useful in the processes and processes for preparing the functionalizing compound. The processes for preparing a functionalized polymer include reaction of a functionalizing compound (prepared from the reaction of an alkoxysilane compound of formula (I) with a polyol of formula (II)) with a reactive conjugated diene monomer-containing polymer, thereby producing a polymer end functionalized with the functionalizing compound. In certain embodiments, the functionalizing compound has a formula according to formula (III), (IV), or (V).
