Quaternized nitrogen containing compounds

Abstract

The invention relates primarily to quaternized compounds having the formula ##STR1## wherein m is an integer having a value of from 1 to 4; R is alkylene having from 3 to 8 carbon atoms and is optionally substituted with C.sub.1 to C.sub.4 alkyl; R.sub.4 is alkylene having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, phenyl or naphthyl optionally substituted with lower alkyl; Y is ##STR2## wherein R.sub.6 is hydrogen or lower alkyl; R.sub.7 is alkyl of from 1 to 30 carbon atoms; R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 are each independently selected from the group of --R.sub.4 --Y--R.sub.7 alkyl, alkyleneoxyalkyl, alkylhydroxy, aryl, aralkyl, aralkenyl, alkaryl, and alkyleneamidoalkyl radicals, said groups each having from 1 to 30 carbon atoms and at least one of R.sub.7, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 having at least 8 carbon atoms and X.sup.-- is a chloride, bromide or iodide anion. The invention also relates to the preparation and use of said quaternized compounds.
