N-Chlorobetainyl chloride

N-Chlorobetainyl chloride is a useful research chemical used in the quantification of Diacylglycerols (DAGs) via the introduction of a quaternary ammonium cation, increasing the signal intensity in electrospray mass spectrometry (ESI/MS). Accurate quatification of DAGs is of special interest as their concentrations are altered in diabetes, cancer, and other disease states.
