Trioctylmethylammonium chloride

Description:

Trioctylmethylammonium chloride (TOMAC) is a quaternary ammonium salt characterized by its long hydrophobic alkyl chains and a positively charged nitrogen atom. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on the temperature and concentration. TOMAC is known for its surfactant properties, making it effective in reducing surface tension and stabilizing emulsions. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water, which is a common trait of quaternary ammonium compounds. This substance is often utilized in various applications, including as a phase transfer catalyst in organic synthesis, in the extraction of metal ions, and in the formulation of ionic liquids. Additionally, TOMAC exhibits antimicrobial properties, making it useful in disinfectants and biocides. Safety considerations include its potential irritant effects on skin and eyes, and appropriate handling measures should be taken to minimize exposure. Overall, TOMAC is a versatile compound with significant utility in both industrial and laboratory settings.
