Abstract

Both hydrophilic and lipophilic quaternary ammonium fluoride compounds are prepared by direct exchange of the corresponding halides with solid potassium fluoride containing an optimized amount of water (4.0 mol %). The procedure is most effective when methanol is applied as a solvent. A variety of quaternary ammonium fluorides were prepared in 75-97% yield.
