Phase transfer catalyst Tetra-n-butylammonium hydrogen sulfate shows antibacterial properties due to the presence of the quaternary amine and the counter ion. It serves as a phase-transfer catalyst, surface-active agent, solvent, intermediate, active ingredient for conditioners, antistatic agent, detergent sanitizers, softener for textiles and paper products, emulsifying agents and pigment dispersers. It is used as an efficient catalyst in the N-alkylation reactions of benzanilides, cyclization of beta-amino acids to beta-lactams, conversion of nitriles to amides, dehydrohalogenation of aryl 2-haloethyl ethers to give vinyl ethers and in the oxidation of alcohols.

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.
