1 1 3 5-tetramethyl Piperidinium Hydroxide Aqueous Solution

1,1,3,5-tetramethyl Piperidinium Hydroxide Aqueous Solution (TMPH) is highly soluble in water, which makes it useful as a reaction solvent or catalyst. It is typically available in concentrations ranging from 25% to 50% by weight. It is a strong base due to the presence of the hydroxide anion. This makes it useful in reactions that require basic conditions, such as the deprotonation of acids or the formation of enolates. It finds use in many applications, particularly in organic synthesis and as a catalyst. It can also be used as a phase transfer catalyst, which facilitates the transfer of reactants between immiscible phases.
