General description
Tetrabutylammonium acetate (TBAA) is a phase transfer catalyst (PTC).
Application
Tetrabutylammonium acetate can be used:
- To catalyze the alkynylation of carbonyl compounds with trimethylsilylacetylenes providing good yields of propargylic alcohols.
- Along with tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) as a molten reaction medium in the synthesis of 4-aryl-2-quinolones.
- As a promoter in the regioselective direct arylation of azoles (1-methylpyrazole, oxazole, and thiazole) with aryl bromides in presence of palladium acetate catalyst.
- As an ionic liquid to dissolve cellulose in the presence of DMSO co-solvent.
- As an activator in the synthesis of disubstituted alkynes through copper-free Sonogashira coupling reaction.
