Reaction Steps

A 500-ml round-bottom flask was charged with 42.2 parts of DMAEMA, 154.7 parts of acetone, 93.2 parts of 1-bromohexadecane (Sigma-Aldrich), and 0.34 parts of BHT. The mixture was stirred for 16 hours at 35° C. and then allowed to cool to room temperature. The resulting white solid precipitate was isolated by filtration, washed with cold ethyl acetate, and dried under vacuum at 40° C. An NMR analysis of the solid product revealed the structure to be pure dimethylhexadecylammoniumethyl methacrylate bromide.
