Benzenemethanaminium, N,N,N-triethyl-, chloride (1:1): ACTIVE
Applications
DescriptionBenzyltrimethylammonium chloride is hygroscopic and soluble in water, ethanol, and butanol and slightly soluble in butyl phthalate and tributyl phosphate. It is widely used as a solvent for cellulose, a gelling inhibitor in polyester resins, a chemical intermediate, a paint dispersant, and an acrylic dyeing agent. It is also used in plant growth regulator compositions and synthetic processes.
UsesBenzyltriethylammonium chloride is used as a catalyst in the preparation of 2-phenylbutyronitrile from phenyl acetonitrile. It is involved in the Knoevenagel condensation of carbonyl compounds with active methylene compounds to give olefinic products. It acts as a phase transfer catalyst used in the alkylation reaction. It reacts with 1H-Pyridine-2-thione to get 2-Benzylsulfanyl-pyridine.
Preparation methods
PreparationBenzyltriethylammonium chloride synthesis: Add benzyl chloride, triethylamine and acetone into the reaction pot, and reflux at 63-64°C for 8 hours. Slowly lowered to 15°C, filtered, and the filter cake was washed with acetone and dried to obtain benzyltriethylammonium chloride. Yield 68.9%.
