N,N,N,N',N',N'-hexamethylbenzene-1,4-diaminium diiodide

Description:
N,N,N,N',N',N'-hexamethylbenzene-1,4-diaminium diiodide is a quaternary ammonium compound characterized by its symmetrical structure, which features a benzene ring substituted with six methyl groups and two amino groups at the 1 and 4 positions. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in polar solvents due to the presence of the quaternary ammonium groups. The diiodide counterions contribute to its ionic nature, enhancing solubility in various solvents. It exhibits properties typical of quaternary ammonium salts, such as antimicrobial activity and surface-active properties. The presence of multiple methyl groups increases its hydrophobic character, while the diaminium structure imparts cationic properties, making it useful in applications such as surfactants, disinfectants, and in the synthesis of other chemical compounds. Safety data indicates that, like many quaternary ammonium compounds, it should be handled with care due to potential toxicity and irritant effects.
