General description
Tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate is used as an electrolyte for the series of arylketone synthesis.
Tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate (TBATFB) is a phase transfer catalyst. It can be synthesized by the reaction between 30% aqueous solution of tetrafluoroboric acid and 40% aqueous solution of tetrabutylamonium hydroxide. Tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate acts as an electrolyte and inhibits the self-assembly of alkylthiosulfate on gold.

Application
Tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate may be used in the following studies:
- As supporting electrolyte in the voltammetric determination of Δ(9)-tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ(9)-THC).
- Synthesis of biologically relevant macrolactones, Sansalvamide A.
- As supporting electrolyte in the determination of the oxidation and reduction potentials of 5,10,15,20-tetra[3-(3-trifluoromethyl)phenoxy]porphyrin by cyclic voltammetry.
- Preparation of 1:1 adduct with 1,10-phenanthroline.
- Used to prepare other tetrabutylammonium salts in aqueous solutions.
- As electrolyte additive in the synthesis of conducting poly(thiophenes).

Spontaneous self-assembly of alkylthiosulfates on gold produce monolayers similar to the corresponding alkanethiols. Alkylthiosulfate self-assembly from THF solutions is inhibited in the presence of tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate electrolyte. The mechanism of alkylthiosulfate self-assembly and the role of electrolyte and trace water

In this study, polycarbazole (PCz) is presented as a receptor structure for chemoresistive hydrogen sensors. The fabrication of the proposed sensors via electropolymerisation of PCz on interdigitated Pt electrodes is an inexpensive, cost-efficient, and repeatable method. Preliminary results presented in
