DescriptionMethyltrioctylammonium chloride is a water insoluble quaternary ammonium salt, which is widely used as a counter ion in solvent extraction of anionic metal complexes. It is widely used as a phase transfer catalyst for the catalytic oxidation of cyclohexene to 1,6-hexanedioic acid. In comparison to traditional method of oxidizing cyclohexanol or cyclohexanone with nitric acid or potassium permanganate, the usage of methyltrioctylammonium chloride is a more environmentally friendly reaction.

UsesMethyltrioctylammonium chloride can be used:As a catalyst in the synthesis of acridine dione derivatives from aromatic aldehyde, dimedone and amines under ultrasonic irradiations.As a catalyst in the synthesis of extended π-systems using aromatic aldehydes and methyldiazines.As a component of a catalytic system used in the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction of a variety of aryl and heteroaryl chlorides in H2O.

UsesMixture of C8 and C10 chains with C8 predominating. Used as a metal extraction reagent and a phase-transfer catalyst.
