Hi,
We have a compound that analysed using tetrabutylammonium hydroxide. May i change tetrabutylammonium hydroxide with tetrabutylammonium hydrogen sulfate? What is the difference between tetrabutylammonium hydroxide and tetrabutylammonium hydrogen sulfate?
Best regards

Assuming that your compound is an organic acid, building the ion-pair releases an OH- with hydroxide. This is neutralized by the H+ from the organic acid.
By using the hydrogen sulfate you are getting sulfuric acid instead. This migh interfere with the separation.

when we use Tetrabutylammonium Hydroxide or Tetrabutylammonium hydrogen sulfate we do ion pairing?

In what other case would you want to put that through a column?

we use TBAHS in prednisolone(which is neutral) assay. we do ion pairing in neutral molecules?
