Abstract

Several years ago, Vorlander and Nolte2 announced a singular quaternary ammonium salt in which a so-called “negative” radical, benzenesulfonyl, assumed the role ordinarily played by an alkyl group. They claimed that benzenesulfonyl chloride acted upon a water solution of trimethylamine to replace the “imino” hydrogen atom of the ammonium base as follows.
