| | Benzyltrimethylammonium chloride Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | white to light yellow crystal powde | | Uses | Solvent for cellulose, gelling inhibitor in polyester resins, intermediate. | | Uses | Benzyltrimethylammonium chloride are Ccommercially important catalyst. Used in antistatic agent, detergent Sanitisers, softner for textiles and paper products, phase transfer catalyst. | | General Description | Light yellow liquid with a mild almond odor. May float or sink in water. | | Air & Water Reactions | Water soluble. | | Reactivity Profile | Benzyltrimethylammonium chloride can react with oxidizing materials . Toxic oxides of nitrogen and hydrochloric acid fumes may form in fire [USCG, 1999]. | | Health Hazard | Ingestion causes gastrointestinal disturbances. Contact with liquid irritates eyes and may irritate skin. | | Fire Hazard | Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Toxic oxides of nitrogen and hydrochloric acid fumes may form in fire. | | Safety Profile | Poison by ingestion. Combustible.When heated to decomposition it emits very toxic fumesof NH3, NOx, and Cl??. | | Purification Methods | A 60% aqueous solution of the salt is evaporated to dryness under a vacuum on a steam bath, and then left in a vacuum desiccator containing a suitable drying agent. The solid residue is dissolved in a small volume of boiling absolute EtOH and precipitated by adding an equal volume of diethyl ether with cooling. After washing, the precipitate is dried under a vacuum [Karusch J Am Chem Soc 73 1246 1951]. [Beilstein 12 IV 2162.] |
