C14-Benzalkonium chloride D5

Benzyl-2,3,4,5,6-d5-dimethyl-n-tetradecylammonium Chloride (BDTAC) is a quaternary ammonium salt that is widely used in the pharmaceutical industry as a surfactant and a cationic detergent. It is commonly used as an emulsifying agent, solubilizer, and stabilizer in various formulations. BDTAC is a positively charged molecule that can interact with negatively charged surfaces or molecules, thereby reducing the surface tension and improving the solubility of the compounds. It is also known to have antimicrobial properties and has been used in the preparation of disinfectants and preservatives. BDTAC is a deuterated analog of Benzyl-dimethyl-n-tetradecylammonium Chloride (BDTACl), which is a non-deuterated version of the same compound. The deuterated version is used in various applications that require the use of stable isotopes. The presence of deuterium atoms in the molecule can also provide useful information in various analytical techniques such as mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. BDTAC is generally considered to be safe for use in various applications, and its toxicity is relatively low. However, it should be handled with care, and appropriate safety measures should be taken during its handling and disposal.
