Abstract

Benzyltriethylammonium chloride has enjoyed wide popularity as a catalyst for alkylation reactions in organic-aqueous hydroxide two-phase systems. 2 In an effort to expand the synthetic utility of this and related quaternary ammonium salts, attempts have recently been made to develop polymeric equivalents for use in analogous triphase conversion^.^-^ Commercial anion-exchange resins bearing pendant quaternary ammonium groups ex-
