Tetradecyltrimethylammonium chloride

Description:

Tetradecyltrimethylammonium chloride (TTAC) is a quaternary ammonium compound characterized by its long hydrophobic tetradecyl chain and a positively charged trimethylammonium group. It appears as a white to off-white solid or powder and is soluble in water, making it a cationic surfactant. TTAC exhibits surface-active properties, which allow it to reduce surface tension and stabilize emulsions, making it useful in various applications, including as a disinfectant, antimicrobial agent, and in formulations for personal care products. Its hydrophobic tail provides compatibility with oils and fats, while the quaternary ammonium head enhances its interaction with negatively charged surfaces, such as bacterial membranes. Additionally, TTAC is known for its ability to form micelles in solution, which can encapsulate hydrophobic substances. However, it should be handled with care due to potential toxicity and environmental concerns associated with quaternary ammonium compounds. Overall, TTAC is valued for its effectiveness in cleaning and antimicrobial applications, but its use must be balanced with considerations for safety and environmental impact.

Tetradecyltrimethylammonium chloride

CAS: 4574-04-3

Tetradecyltrimethylammonium chloride (TTAC) is a hydrophobic fluorescent probe that has been used to investigate the properties of lipid bilayers and micelles. TTAC is fluorescent in aqueous solution and it can be used as a molecular-weight marker for organic solvents. The fluorescence lifetime of TTAC is dependent on the solvent conditions and the presence of counterions, while its fluorescence intensity depends on the concentration of TTAC in solution. The hydrophobic nature of TTAC causes it to be solubilized by micelles, which are spherical aggregates formed from amphiphilic molecules. This property makes TTAC ideal for studying micelles with surface properties and steady-state fluorescence.
