| Application: | Tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) may be used in the molten state in the following processes: • Synthesis of (2S)-5-(3-phenyl-2-phthalimi • Synthesis of alkyl-substituted pyrroles in the absence of catalyst and organic solvent. • Synthesis of dithioacetals from acetals by transthioacetalisation in a solvent free environment. • Synthesis of polyamides (PAs) by the polymerization of terephthalic acid and diisocyanates. • Catalyze the addition of thiols to conjugated alkenes. • Dehydrochlorination of poly(vinyl chloride). |
| General description: | Tetrabutylammonium bromide is a quaternary ammonium compound that is widely used as a phase transfer catalyst. Absolute viscosities of its aqueous solutions have been measured at various temperatures (20,25 and 30°C). Various physical properties (activity coefficient up to saturation, conductance, density and solubility in water) of TMABr have been evaluated. |
