Tetrabutylammonium chloride explained

Tetrabutylammonium chloride is the organic compound with the formula, often abbreviated as, where Bu stands for n-butyl. A white water-soluble solid, it is a quaternary ammonium salt of chloride. It is a precursor to other tetrabutylammonium salts.[1] [2] Often tetrabutylammonium bromide is preferred as a source of tetrabutylammonium because it is less hygroscopic than the chloride.[3]
