Strategies for using Quaternary Ammonium Salts as Alternative Reagents in Alkylations

Abstract: Alkylation reactions are pivotal in organic chemistry, with wide‐ranging utilization across various fields of applied synthetic chemistry. However, conventional reagents employed in alkylations often pose substantial health and exposure risks. Quaternary ammonium salts (QAS) present a promising alternative for these transformations offering significantly reduced hazards as they are non‐cancerogenic, non‐mutagenic, non‐flammable, and non‐corrosive. Despite their potential, their use in direct organic transformations remains relatively unexplored. This review outlines strategies for utilizing QAS as alternative reagents in alkylation reactions, providing researchers with safer approaches to chemical synthesis.
