Two novel series of hydroxymethyl group-appended quaternary nitrogen surfactants (QNSs) based on the aliphatic N-alkyl-trimethylammonium and aromatic N-alkylpyridinium head groups were synthesized from the appropriate nitrogen head group precursor and 1-bromoalkane. The QNSs were characterized using 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance and infrared spectroscopy, and their purity confirmed using elemental analysis. The solution behavior of the QNSs was investigated by conductivity, assessing both the aggregation concentration as well as the amount of counter-ion dissociation. The results showed a general decrease in the aggregation concentration for the compounds with the hydroxymethyl addition, where the pyridinium compounds were more affected than the ammonium QNSs. In contrast, the extent of counter-ion dissociation (α) from the aggregate was slightly increased for the ammonium compounds but that of the pyridinium compounds was not generally affected by the structural modification.
