Tetraoctylammoniumiodide; 99%

Description:

Tetraoctylammonium iodide (TOAI) is a quaternary ammonium salt characterized by its long hydrocarbon chains, which contribute to its surfactant properties. With the chemical formula C32H68N I, it consists of a tetraoctylammonium cation and an iodide anion. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents, making it useful in various applications, including phase transfer catalysis and as a surfactant in organic synthesis. TOAI exhibits hydrophobic characteristics due to its long alkyl chains, while the iodide ion provides ionic properties. It is often utilized in the extraction and separation of metal ions and in the preparation of ionic liquids. Safety considerations include handling it with care, as it may pose risks if ingested or inhaled, and appropriate personal protective equipment should be used. Overall, tetraoctylammonium iodide is valued in both industrial and research settings for its unique properties and versatility.
