N,N-didecyl-N-methyl-poly(oxyethyl) ammonium propionate is a quaternary ammonium compound that is used to disinfect medical devices. Occupational allergic contact dermatitis caused by quaternary ammonium compounds in healthcare workers is an increasingly important issue (1). We report a case of severe allergic contact dermatitis caused by N,N-didecyl-N-methyl-poly(oxyethyl) ammonium propionate ...

The title chiral quaternary ammonium salt, C(13)H(25)N(4) (+)·I(-), was synthesized through the Menschutkin reaction between the cage aminal (2S,7S)-1,8,10,12-tetra-aza-tetra-cyclo-[8.3.1.1(8,12).0(2,7)]penta-decane and ethyl iodide. The quaternization occurred regioselectively on the nitrogen with major sp3 character. The crystal structure consists of anions and cations separated by normal dis...

The title compound, C(11)H(23)NO(5)P(+)·I(-), consists of an eight-membered cationic heterocyclic ring in a boat-chair conformation. The ring features a tetra-alkyl-ammonium N and a methyl-phospho-nate P atom. A -CH(2)(CO)OC(2)H(5) ester side chain at the C adjacent to oxygen produces two chiral centers at that substituted C atom and the P atom, both of which were determined to have absolute R,...

The title compound, (C(2)H(10)N(2))[Ni(C(16)H(14)N(2)O(2))](4)(ClO(4))(2)·C(3)H(7)NO, crystallizes with four Ni(salen) mol-ecules {salen is 2,2'-[ethane-1,2-diylbis(nitrilo-methyl-idyne)]diphenolate}, one ethyl-enediammonium cation (actually two half-cations, each located on a center of inversion), two perchlorate anions and one dimethyl-formamide solvent mol-ecule in the asymmetric unit. Each ...

The title compounds, tetra-butyl-ammonium chloride-1,1'-(1,2-phenyl-ene)bis-(3-m-tolyl-urea) (1/1), C16H36N+·Cl-·C22H22N4O2 or [(n-Bu4N+·Cl-)(C22H22N4O2)] (I) and tetra-butyl-ammonium bromide-1,1'-(1,2-phenyl-ene)bis-(3-m-tolyl-urea) (1/1), C16H36N+·Br-·C22H22N4O2 or [(n-Bu4N+·Br-)(C22H22N4O2)] (II), both comprise a tetra-butyl-ammonium cation, a halide anion and an ortho-phenyl-ene bis-urea mo...

In the title compound, (C(16)H(36)N)[Fe(C(12)H(8)N(3)O(2))(CN)(3)]·2H(2)O, the tetra-n-butyl-ammonium ion has a tetra-hedral configuration around the N atom, while the Fe(III) atom of the tricyanido[N-(2-pyridyl-carbon-yl)pyridine-2-carboximidato]iron(III) anion adopts a distorted octa-hedral geometry. O-H⋯O and O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds link the components in the crystal structure.

Bimolecular reactions of the antimony(V) porphyrin complexes SbO(tpp)OH, 1 and SbO(oep)OH, 2 with tetra-n-butylammonium hydroxide were investigated at 298 K in acetonitrile solution (tpp, dianion of 5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrin and oep, dianion of 2,3,7,8,12,13,17,18-octaethylporphyrin). Spontaneous nucleophilic addition of hydroxide ions to the non-oxidized porphyrin macrocycle leads to nov...

The mixed bimetallic title compound, [InLi(CH3)2(C7H7O)2(C6H16N2)] or [(tmeda)Li-μ-(4-MeC6H4O)2InMe2] (tmeda is N,N,N',N'-tetra-methyl-ethylenedi-amine), exhibits a four-membered LiO2In ring core via bridging 4-methyl-phenolate groups. The Li and In atoms are in distorted tetra-hedral N2O2 and C2O2 bonding environments, respectively. The Li atom is further chelated by a tmeda group, yielding a ...

In the title cholestane derivative, C(28)H(48) [systematic name: (1S,2S,7R,10R,11R,14R,15R)-2,5,10,15-tetra-methyl-14-[(2R)-6-methyl-heptan-2-yl]tetra-cyclo-[8.7.0.0(2,7).0(11,15)]hepta-dec-4-ene], the cyclo-hexene ring adopts a half-chair conformation. The parent 5α-cholest-2-ene and the equivalent fragment of the title compound are almost superimposable (r.m.s. deviation = 0.033 Å).
