In the title compound, C(14)H(30)N(2) (2+)·2Br(-)·2CH(3)OH, two terminal C atoms of the butane chain are connected to two N atoms of the 1-methyl-pyrollidines, forming a linear diquaternary ammonium cation. The cation lies across a centre of inversion located between the two central C atoms of the butane chain. The asymmetric unit therefore comprises one half-cation, a bromide anion and a metha...

The title compound, C(20)H(26)NO(2) (+)·Br(-), is an N-chiral quaternary ammonium salt synthesized from (2S*)-N-benzyl-N-methyl-tyrosine methyl ester. The dihedral angle between the phenyl ring and the benzene ring is 11.61 (19)°. In the crystal structure, the allyl group is disordered over two positions with site occupancy factors of ca 0.8 and 0.2. The bromide anion links to the quaternary am...

The interaction between λ--DNA and cationic surfactants with varying alkyl chain lengths was investigated. By dynamic light scattering method, the trimethyl-ammonium bromides-DNA complex formation was shown to be dependent on the length of the surfactant's alkyl chain. For surfactants with sufficient long alkyl chain (CTAB, TTAB, DTAB), the compacted particles exist with a size of ~60-110 nm at...

The redetermined, low temperature (150 K), structure of tetra-n-butyl-ammonium bromide, (C(4)H(9))(4)N(+)·Br(-), has been found to be merohedrally twinned via twin law -1 0 0, 0 - 1 0, 1 0 1. The structure was previously determined, with low precision, no inclusion of H atoms and only the bromide ion refined with anisotropic displacement parameters, by Wang et al. (1995 ▶). Mol. Cryst. Liq. Cry...

A novel, efficient, convenient and environmentally friendly approach for the synthesis of nitriles and imines from primary amines has been developed. Using commercially available red copper as the catalyst, ammonium bromide as the co-catalyst and molecular oxygen as the sole oxidant, nitriles and imines can be afforded in high yields through benzylic oxidation.

The cooperative catalytic activity of several metal corrole complexes in combination with tetrabutyl-ammonium bromide (TBAB) has been investigated for the reaction of epoxides with CO2 leading to cyclic carbonates. It was found that the use of just 0.05 mol % of a manganese(III)corrole with 2 mol % TBAB exhibits excellent catalytic activity under an atmosphere of CO2 .

Vaccination of mice with Mycobacterium bovis culture filtrate proteins (CFP), prepared in a variety of adjuvants (aluminum hydroxide, Quil-A, and dimethyldioctyldecyl ammonium bromide [DDA]), provided significant protection against an aerosol challenge of virulent M. bovis. Additionally, vaccination with CFP in DDA or Quil-A did not sensitize mice to M. bovis purified protein derivative.

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...

nanocrystalline zinc oxide (zno) powders with different morphology have been successfully synthesized by using different surfactants such as cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (ctab), sodium dodecyl sulphate (sds), and tri ethanol amine (tea) via hydrothermal method. the products were characterized by means of powder x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem), transmission electr...

Dibenzoylperoxide emerged as a versatile oxidant for quaternary ammonium iodide or bromide-catalyzed reactions of phenol derivatives with NaN3. While the use iodides allowed efficient benzylic azidations under these oxidative conditions, bromides dearomative instead. Both approaches have been successfully applied to different and first proof-of-concept an enantioselective variant using chiral q...
