CAS 15294-63-0: Dodecyltributylphosphonium Bromide
Description:Dodecyltributylphosphonium bromide is a quaternary ammonium salt characterized by its long hydrophobic dodecyl chain and three butyl groups attached to a phosphorus atom. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents, while being less soluble in water due to its hydrophobic nature. It exhibits surfactant properties, making it useful in various applications such as phase transfer catalysis, emulsification, and as a dispersing agent. The presence of the bromide ion contributes to its ionic character, enhancing its ability to interact with other ionic species. Additionally, dodecyltributylphosphonium bromide can form micelles in solution, which can be beneficial in processes involving the solubilization of hydrophobic compounds. Its unique structure allows it to function effectively in both organic and aqueous environments, making it a versatile compound in chemical synthesis and industrial applications. Safety data should be consulted, as with all chemical substances, to ensure proper handling and usage.
