:Pyridinium, 2,4-dimethyl-1-tetradecyl-, iodide
Description:
Pyridinium, 2,4-dimethyl-1-tetradecyl-, iodide, with the CAS number 88477-52-5, is a quaternary ammonium compound characterized by its pyridinium ring structure substituted with a long tetradecyl alkyl chain and two methyl groups at the 2 and 4 positions. This compound typically exhibits surfactant properties, making it useful in various applications, including as a phase transfer catalyst and in formulations requiring antimicrobial activity. Its long hydrophobic alkyl chain contributes to its ability to interact with lipid membranes, while the positively charged pyridinium nitrogen enhances solubility in polar solvents. The iodide counterion can influence the compound's stability and reactivity. Pyridinium iodides are generally soluble in water and organic solvents, and they may exhibit antimicrobial properties, making them of interest in pharmaceutical and industrial applications. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as quaternary ammonium compounds can be irritants and may pose environmental risks.
