1-dodecylpyridinium bromide

Description:

1-Dodecylpyridinium bromide is a quaternary ammonium salt characterized by its long hydrophobic dodecyl chain and a positively charged pyridinium ring. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white solid or powder and is soluble in polar solvents such as water and alcohols, while being less soluble in non-polar solvents. Its structure imparts surfactant properties, making it effective in reducing surface tension and stabilizing emulsions. The presence of the bromide ion contributes to its ionic nature, enhancing its solubility and reactivity in various chemical environments. 1-Dodecylpyridinium bromide is often utilized in applications such as phase transfer catalysis, as a surfactant in formulations, and in biological studies due to its ability to interact with cell membranes. Additionally, it exhibits antimicrobial properties, making it of interest in various industrial and pharmaceutical applications. Safety data should be consulted for handling and potential hazards, as quaternary ammonium compounds can be irritants and pose environmental concerns.

Dodecylpyridinium bromide

CAS: 104-73-4

Dodecylpyridinium bromide is a glycol ether surfactant that is used as an inhibitor molecule. It inhibits multidrug efflux pumps, which are proteins in the membrane of cells that pump drugs out of the cell. Dodecylpyridinium bromide is also used as a surfactant in water-based paints and coatings, as well as in printing ink formulations. This chemical has been shown to have amoebicidal activity by interacting with the phospholipids on the surface of the amoeba, causing it to go into spore formation. Dodecylpyridinium bromide is also used for its ability to inhibit the growth of bacteria such as Staphylococcus epidermidis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which can cause infection in burn patients. Dodecylpyridinium bromide can be synthesized from benzalkon
