Dodecyl-, hexadecyl-, and octadecyl-dimethylsulphonium iodide were found to methylate efficiently various nucleosides, hydroxy aromatic compounds, and thiols at pH 8-11 and 50 - 70 deg C.The optimum conditions and the mechanism of the reaction are discussed briefly in relation to the micellar reaction characteristics.
