Benzyltriethylammonium Bromide
Benzyltriethylammonium Bromide (CAS: 5197-95-5) is a quaternary ammonium salt supplied as a white to off-white crystalline powder.
It is a widely used phase transfer catalyst: the lipophilic benzyltriethylammonium cation transports anions such as hydroxide, cyanide, carboxylate or halide into organic media, greatly accelerating substitution, alkylation and oxidation reactions under mild conditions.
• Phase transfer catalysis: accelerates nucleophilic substitutions, alkylations, oxidations and carbene reactions in biphasic systems.
• Pharmaceutical manufacturing: used in the alkylation and esterification steps of active ingredient synthesis.
• Agrochemical production: a catalyst for the synthesis of herbicidal and insecticidal intermediates.
• Polymer modification: promotes the introduction of ionic and functional groups onto polymer backbones.
