An aralkyl is a univalent radical derived from an alkyl radical by replacing one or more hydrogen atoms by aryl groups.
Quaternary ammonium compounds are any of a group of ammonium salts in which organic radicals have been substituted for all four hydrogens of the original ammonium cation. They has a central nitrogen atom which is joined to four organic radicals and one acid radical. The organic radicals may be alkyl, aryl, or aralkyl, and the nitrogen can be part of a ring system. They are prepared by treatment of an amine with an alkylating agent. They show a variety of physical, chemical, and biological properties and most compounds are soluble in water and strong electrolytes. Such compounds include * Benzalkonium Chloride ( CAS RN: 8001-54-5) * Benzethonium Chloride CAS 121-54-0 * Cetalkonium Chloride( CAS 122-18-9) * Cetrimide ( CAS 8044-71-1) * Cetrimonium Bromide ( CAS 57-09-0) * Cetylpyridinium Chloride (CAS 123-03-5) * Stearalkonium Chloride ( CAS 122-19-0) They have properties of disrupting micro-organisms' cell processes and surfactants. These compounds are used as * Active Ingredient for Conditioners * Antistatic Agent * Detergent Sanitisers * Softner for textiles and paper products * Phase Transfer Catalyst * Antimicrobials * Disinfection Agents And Sanitizers * Slimicidal Agents * Algaecide * Emulsifying Agents * Pigment Dispersers
