Application::
Tetrabutyl ammonium iodide is used primarily when you need both a phase-transfer catalyst AND a co-catalyst to activate an alkyl chloride or bromide alkylating agent. ... Many process chemists use tetrabutyl ammonium bromide together with 1 mole% KI, since KI is more likely to be bought at current market price.
