Quaternary ammonium compounds are partly ionic compounds that contain in each molecule one nitrogen atom covalently bonded to four distinct carbon atoms. This bonding is only possible as part of a polyatomic cation with a single positive charge, and the complete compound therefore requires an anion to achieve electrical neutrality.
