The Uses of TETRAMETHYLAMMONIUM PERCHLORATE

Tetramethylammonium perchlorate acts as an intermediate in organic and chemical synthesis. It is used as a mobile phase in high performance liquid chromatographic analysis and in the quantitation of olanzapine clozapine and N-desmethylclozapine. It acts as a supporting electrolyte in the electrochemical reduction of electrochemical reduction of 1-bromodecanr, 1-iododecane,2-iodooctane and 2-bromooctane at mercury cathodes.

Purification Methods

Crystallise it twice from H2O and dry it at 110o in an air oven. It is insoluble in most organic solvents. [Mead et al. J Chem Soc 1210 1933, Coats & Taylor J Chem Soc 1498 1936.]
