Procedure

Using the procedure of Example 3, 13 g of a 25% aqueous solution of tetramethylammonium hydroxide is allowed to react with 6.79 grams of gamma-n-decyl-gamma-butyrolactone. After removal of water and extraction by n-hexane, a quantitative yield of purified tetramethylammonium gamma-hydroxytetradecanoate is obtained. This white solid product has good detergent properties even in hard water.
