Product description:Tetrabutyl ammonium bromide is a kind of effective phase transfer catalyst. Phase transfer catalysts, PTC for short, is able to water phase (organic phase) of reactants to organic phase (or water), and the catalyst, which can make reaction in water phase and organic phase between two phase catalyst. PTC has change the extent of ion solvation, increase properties, such as ion reactivity, speed up the reaction. Solved the difficult problem of reaction in two phase reactant. Common quaternary ammonium salt phase transfer catalysts are: three octyl dimethyl benzyl triethyl ammonium chloride, ammonium chloride, tetramethyl ammonium bromide, four propyl chloride and tetrabutyl ammonium bromide, tetrabutyl ammonium iodide, triethyl benzyl ammonium bromide, triethyl ammonium bromide, triethyl octyl ammonium bromide.
