Phosphonium, tetraoctyl-, bromide (1:1)

Description:
Phosphonium, tetraoctyl-, bromide (1:1) is a quaternary ammonium salt characterized by its structure, which includes a central phosphorus atom bonded to four octyl groups and a bromide anion. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid at room temperature and is known for its hydrophobic properties due to the long hydrocarbon chains of the octyl groups. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. The presence of the bromide ion contributes to its ionic nature, making it useful in various applications, including as a phase transfer catalyst in organic synthesis and in the formulation of ionic liquids. Additionally, phosphonium salts like this one can exhibit antimicrobial properties and are studied for their potential in drug delivery systems. Safety data should be consulted, as with any chemical, to understand its handling and potential hazards. Overall, tetraoctyl phosphonium bromide is notable for its unique combination of hydrophobicity and ionic characteristics, making it valuable in both industrial and research settings.
