What is Tetrabutylammonium Bromide (TBAB)?

Tetrabutylammonium Bromide (CAS 1643-19-2), also known as TBAB, is a quaternary ammonium salt widely used as a phase-transfer catalyst (PTC) in organic synthesis. It appears as a white crystalline powder and is highly soluble in water, alcohols, and polar organic solvents. TBAB facilitates the migration of anions from aqueous to organic phases, enabling efficient two-phase reactions.

Applications of Tetrabutylammonium Bromide

1. Organic Synthesis

Acts as a phase-transfer catalyst to enhance reactivity in biphasic systems
Used in nucleophilic substitution, oxidation, alkylation, and polymerization reactions

2. Pharmaceutical & Fine Chemicals

Essential intermediate and reagent in drug development and API synthesis
Supports green chemistry by reducing the need for harsh solvents

3. Electrochemistry & Materials

Used as an electrolyte or supporting salt in electrochemical studies
Applied in ionic liquids, surfactants, and ionic conductors

4. Industrial Uses

Catalyzes processes in pesticide, plastic, and dye manufacturing
Enhances yield and selectivity in industrial-scale chemical reactions
