Description and Uses

Tetrabutylammonium hydroxide(TBAOH) is a quaternary ammonium salt mainly used as a strong base and phase-transfer catalyst. TBAOH may be used as an ion-pairing reagent in mobile phase preparation for reverse phase ion-pair high performance liquid chromatography during chromium (III) and chromium (VI) determination.
