The most striking difference between solid-liquid and liquid-liquid phase transfer equilibriums is that the length of alkyl chain shows a large effect on the latter but little on the former This means that the chain length affects only the hydrophobicity, rather than the lipophilicity.Keywords Quaternary ammonium salt, Phase transfer catalysis, Equilibrium constant, Hydrophobicity, Lipophilicity展开更多
