Benzyl dimethyl dodecyl ammonium chloride (Benzododecinium chloride)

Create a 3D molecular model of Benzyl dimethyl dodecyl ammonium chloride from Genuine Molymod Atoms & Bonds by Indigo

Benzyl dimethyl dodecyl ammonium chloride (benzododecinium chloride) is the organic chloride salt of benzododecinium. It consists of a methyl benzene (toluene) & a saturated 12 carbon aliphatic chain bound to a dimethyl ammonium. This defines it as a group II QUAT, more generally known as "alkyl dimethyl benzyl ammonium chlorides" (aka ADBAC). The EPA lists 24 compounds with a general structure similar to benzalkonium chloride.

Note that all the student organic chemistry molecular model sets listed below can build this structure but may need additional parts. Enter this & just about any other quaternary ammonium chloride compound into our 3D Molecular Model Builder to get a complete components list.
