2-DiMethylaMinoethyltriphenylphosphoniuM BroMide is precursor to dimethylaminoethylidenetriphenylphosphorane, which condenses with aldehydes and ketones to give allylic amines.
almost white to yellow-brown powder
[2-(Dimethylamino)ethyl]triphenylphosphonium Bromide, can be used as a polymerizable cationic surfactant for the intercalation of montmorillonite (MMT), used in the synthesis of polystyrene-clay nanocomposite materials. It can also be used for the synthesis of some analogs of morphine 6-glucuronide through Wittig reactions.
2-DiMethylaMinoethyltriphenylphosphoniuM BroMide is prepared by condensation of the corresponding β-amino alcohols with Triphenylphosphine in the presence of Hydrogen Bromide.
