Tetrapropylammonium Bromide CAS#1941-30-6
Youdaoplaceholder0 Bromide consists of four propyl (-C₃H₇) groups bonded to a nitrogen atom, forming a quaternary ammonium cation ([(C₃H₇)₄N]⁺), which associates with a bromide ion (Br⁻) to create an ionic compound. It dissolves readily in water and in polar organic solvents such as methanol, ethanol, and acetone. The substance appears as a white crystalline powder or crystal, and when of high purity, it is colorless and transparent.
