General description

Tributylmethylammonium chloride (TBMAC) is a quaternary ammonium salt commonly used as a phase-transfer catalyst in various organic synthesis reactions. It can also be used in the preparation of ionic liquids.

Application

Tributylmethylammonium chloride solution is used as a phase transfer catalyst in the synthesis of ɛ-caprolactone by Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of cyclohexanone in the presence of KHSO5 as an oxidizing agent.
