Description

CAS: 100-85-6 | C10H17NO | 167.252 g/mol

Benzyltrimethylammonium hydroxide is used as a phase-transfer catalyst. It is also used in aldol condensation reactions and base-catalyzed dehydration reactions. Further, it serves as a strong organic base and used in Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons olefination reactions. In addition, it is an active component in the formulation, which is used in silicon wafer cleaning applications.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
