Tetramethylammonium acetate Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

clear colorless to pale yellow solution

Uses

Tetramethylammonium acetate is used as an intermediate in organic synthesis, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and dyestuffs. Further, it is used to prepare (1R,4S)-4-hydroxycyclopent-2-en-1-essigsaeure-methylester by reacting with 1,3-dimethyl-imidazolidin-2-one. In addition to this, it serves as an emulsifier, catalyst, sterilizer, antistatic and antiseptic agent.
