Benzyltrimethylammonium Chloride
Benzyltrimethylammonium Chloride (CAS: 56-93-9) is a quaternary ammonium salt most commonly supplied as a 60% aqueous solution, a colourless to pale yellow clear liquid.
The benzyltrimethylammonium cation is a strong organic base and an effective phase transfer catalyst, carrying hydroxide, halide or carboxylate anions into organic phases and accelerating alkylations, esterifications and condensations.
• Phase transfer catalysis: a standard catalyst for alkylation, esterification and condensation reactions in biphasic media.
• Antistatic agent: applied to textile fibres, plastics and paper to dissipate static charge.
• Textile and paper auxiliaries: used as a softening and finishing component.
• Water treatment and biocides: acts as a quaternary ammonium active in antimicrobial formulations.
